Not to take anything away from Chris, but he won Swedish Idol a few years back.

He might have an unfair advantage with millions of streams on Spotify (Chris Kläfford).

All he does is going around playing Imagine.. does he have 1 own song?

Watching this gave me chills, sitting outside in Houston in July.
