One of the most talented performers the American Idol podium would want to lose is Scott Macintyre. The singer with a limited vision is a God gifted musician. Also a pianist, Macintyre began playing the piano at the age of 3. Born in Redondo Beach, California, he started composing music by the age of 5. "I've known for years this is where my heart is", said Macintyre in an interview.

The 23 year old singer currently lives in Scottsdale, Arizona. His vision is only limited to 2 degrees. A lifelong blindness that he will have to live with gives him a vision like "looking through a coffee straw at the world".

Macintyre's biggest inspiration has been his family and music. "We have a family quartet. Everyone but my dad. He auditions every year but never makes the cut", he said. Mac, your love for music and musical replete will take you to heights in life. Its a feel good thing to see him perform on the stage.
