How are we supposed to live without Michael Bolton? “American Song Contest” doesn’t have to answer that question just yet, as Connecticut-based Bolton and his song “Beautiful World” could still place next week through a combination of votes through fans and jurors.
But the early lead on night one of NBC’s U.S. take on the Eurovision Song Contest went to Rhode Island’s Hueston, wearing his heart on his sleeve with the tear-jerker “Held on Too Long.” Hueston most impressed the 56-member juror panel — which includes iHeartMedia chief programming officer/president Tom Poleman, Klos host and former MTV VJ Matt Pinfield and artist/songwriter/producer Ester Dean. He was the first from this group to qualify to move on from this round.

Apparently “American Song Contest” saved the best for last, as the 56 jury members voted at the end of the season premiere to advance Hueston, the final performer of the night, to the semi-finals. Thanks to his emotional ballad “Held on Too Long,” the Rhode Island native was able to beat out several other big name singers, including Connecticut’s Michael Bolton (“Beautiful World”). Watch Hueston perform “Held on Too Long” in NBC’s video above.
If you’re confused by the show’s complicated voting methods, you’re not alone. At the end of the night, 56 industry professionals from each state/territory ranked all 11 performances from best to worst (though these jurists were ineligible to vote for their own state/territory). Hueston ranked the highest, so he received a free pass to the semi-finals. Three other participants will be voted on a by a mix of the audience vote and the jury vote.
