4:01	Danny Gokey - Hello, everybody... this is Danny Gokey from American Idol and if you have any questions, I would love to answer them!

4:02	[Comment From amber] Out of all the people you met on idol who have you really connected with?

4:02	Danny Gokey - There's been a couple. It's been Michael Sarver, Matt Giraud and Anoop.

4:02	[Comment From Meredith] What's one song you wish you had gotten the chance to perform on the show?

4:02	Danny Gokey - I would've loved to have sang "Still" by Brian McKnight. My wife walked down the aisle to that when we got married.

4:03	[Comment From katyra] what made you decide to audition for idol?

4:03	Danny Gokey - My wife was a big fan and it was my last year I could do it, so I made my mind up in February 2008 that this is what I would do. Little did I know that we'd have gone through what we had gone through.

4:03	[Comment From Brennon] first off congrats danny. so just wondering what kind of music genre you are looking at maybe country?

4:04	Danny Gokey - Ideally, I would like to do my own little fusion of R&B and Latin... but I would be open to do a modern-soul country.

4:04	[Comment From Dawn] Hey Danny, Did you get a recording contract yet?

4:04	Danny Gokey - Today I'm supposed to be talking with 19 Records. There's something in the works right now, and I'm not going to say anything until it's final. But there's something going on behind the scenes.

4:05	[Comment From Lisette] This are several confirmation articles saying that you WILL be on Dancing with the Stars. Please let us know..

4:05	[Comment From coconutghosts] Are you really going to be on Dancing with the Stars or is the National Enquirer lying to me and breaking all my hopes and dreams?

Danny Gokey - I have not heard of anything. The way I look at it is like this: My first passion is my music and my foundation. That's my priority. If in the future it works out to bring awareness to my foundation and my music, I would do it, but I don't want to do any distractions at this point.
