Arranger: Chris Walden . American Idol crooner Clay Aiken's first release for the Decca label features 11 standards from the '50s and '60s. Released in 2010, Tried & True includes pop classics like "Suspicious Minds," "What Kind of Fool Am I?," and "Misty," as well as "Mack the Knife" and "Unchained Melody," both of which he covered with great success during his run on Idol.

Although he never actually won AMERICAN IDOL, finishing second to soul heavyweight Ruben Studdard at the conclusion of the show's second season in 2003, crooner Clay Aiken was able to parlay his inoffensive brand of easy-listening pop and fresh-faced charm into a successful career that ultimately eclipsed Studdard's. Equipped with an undeniable set of pipes, Aiken fills a comfortable spot between Celine Dion and Michael Bolton.
