On August 1, America's Got Talent: All-Stars Season 1 Finalist Tom Ball uploaded a video of himself covering "Tenerife Sea" by Ed Sheeran. In the clip, Ball crooned the passionate lyrics with strong vibrato, closing his eyes and completely immersing himself in the music. His voice soared while he hit some high-belted notes perfectly, and he wrapped things up with a soft, vulnerable tone.

"Tenerife Sea" by Ed Sheeran lyrics

You look so wonderful in your dress
I love your hair like that
The way it falls on the side of your neck
Down your shoulders and back
We are surrounded by all of these lies
And people that talk too much
You got the kind of look in your eyes
As if no one knows anything but us

Should this be the last thing I see?
I want you to know it's enough for me
'Cause all that you are is all that I'll ever need

I'm so in love
So in love
So in love
I'm so in love

You look so beautiful in this light
Your silhouette over me
The way it brings out the blue in your eyes
Is the Tenerife sea
And all of the voices surrounding us here
They just fade out when you take a breath
Just say the word and I will disappear
Into the wilderness

Should this be the last thing I see?
I want you to know it's enough for me
'Cause all that you are is all that I'll ever need

I'm so in love
So in love
So in love
So in love

Lumière, darling
Lumière over me
Lumière, darling
Lumière over me
Lumière, darling
Lumière over me

Should this be the last thing I see?
I want you to know it's enough for me
'Cause all that you are is all that I'll ever need

So in love
So in love
So in love, love, love, love
So in love

You look so wonderful in your dress
I love your hair like that
And in a moment, I knew you best
