Maddie Poppe has sung eight songs so far on “American Idol” and viewers think that a whopping six of these were real winners. In our poll, all of her performances to date but two (her duet with Colbie Caillat on “Bubbly” and her cover of The Bangles‘ hit “Walk Like an Egyptian) merited at least 10% of the total tally.

Right behind, with 17% each as of this writing, are “Nothing Compares 2 U” which Prince wrote for Sinead O’Connor and Melanie‘s classic “Brand New Key.”
