Speaking of his meteoric fame in the 1980s, Glenn said Amherst Records: ‘The song I like to sing most is Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love For You.

‘I like it when people sing along with me and share stories about how that song played a special role in their lives many years ago.’

‘The most interesting story [from my career] It meant traveling to more than 20 countries around the world at the age of 18, having traveled nowhere other than my home, Hawaii, just two years before,” he added.

During her audition, she was asked by the judges to sing a second song after Katy Perry described her choice as “safe”, and then sang Carrie Underwood’s Before He Cheats.

Despite a rough start, she was given a chance by the judges and made it to Hollywood, but was later unfortunately eliminated from the competition.
