Richard Goodall might’ve saved the best to last, as the 55-year-old singer competed in the finals of America’s Got Talent
The AGT season 19 fan-favorite, Goodall stood and delivered a cover of Journey’s 1983 song “Faithfully,” a Billboard Hot 100 hit lifted from the Rock Hall-inducted band’s album Frontiers.
Wearing an all-black ensemble, with a black flat-cap, Goodall belted out the ballad, with support from a full band — and nailed all the high-notes.

As his performance came to a close, Goodall was saluted with a standing ovation from the entire room, including the four judges.
“You are such an amazing man, you are so humble, you’re so kind,” Heidi Klum remarked. “You’re also a little bit quiet, but not when you’re behind the microphone. Then you’re a big rockstar.” She added, “I want you to win this so bad, Richard.”
