Standout performance …

Steven Tyler was more than a little bit impressed last night by the soulful performance of Jacob Lusk on American Idol. After the popular contestant finished his rendition of You’re All I Need to Get By, he received a hug and a kiss from the judge – a first for the reality singing show.

Tyler bounded up on stage and announced: “Baby Luther (Vandross), that was beautiful … you did it.” Randy Jackson then chimed in: “Know what was wrong with that performance? Absolutely nothing.”

Lusk remarked after the show: “It was all kind of a blur. It was an amazing night. I’m just kind of overwhelmed and physically exhausted. To finally be back in the groove and know that fans were there supporting me was amazing.”

Check out the music and the kiss on video below:
