Guide Note
American Idol contestant Chikezie Eze sang "She's a Woman". It was original released on the B-side of the 45 record "I Feel Fine" and went on to the number four position on the Billboard chart. Chikezie's rendition of the song earned him enough votes from the viewers to sing another week in the competition.

Judges' Comments
Randy Jackson said he was thoroughly entertained and that he loved the arrangement. Who knew he had the falsetto? He smashed it!
Paula Abdul said this was the Chikezie she was waiting for. Those who take a risk, get a greater reward. The reward paid off.
Simon Cowell is really suprised because he agrees with the both Paula and Randy. He loved that unlike the first singer, he's changed and took control over the stage, and it was a unique version of the song. Terrific.
