Abdul loved his passion, and Cowell said it lacked of originality and lacked the wow factor, although it was a good rendition. Guest Stevie Wonder confessed to be impressed with Yamin, and said he should definitely choose singing as a profession.Week 2: Songs of the 50s – Teach Me Tonight (Al Jarreau) Jackson said Yamin chose the toughest song of the night and he worked it out.

Same happened with What You Wont Do for Love: Jackson said Yamin was sharp, Abdul liked it and Cowell said he was pretty good because the style suit him although it was not the best song in the world.
