Kree Harrison gave it her all on Wednesday’s “American Idol” performance finale, and the judges were quite pleased.

The finalist performed three songs — “Angel” (Simon Fuller’s choice), “All Cried Out” (coronation single), and “Up to the Mountain” (contestant’s reprise choice).

She received standing ovations from everyone but Nicki Minaj for the single, but the rapper joined the rest of the panel in standing up for “Up to the Mountain.”

“Oh come on! That was beautiful, Kree,” Keith Urban told her, adding, “It’s the spirituality and the soulfulness you tap into. It’s your story. It’s all connected.”

Minaj said, “I’m so glad you did that one… That energy is so uplifting. I loved it even more than the single performance because it felt so rich.”

And Randy Jackson called it a “winning performance,” and her “best” of the night.”

“I agree with Randy,” noted Mariah Carey, “You have something special Kree…. It’s going to be very, very difficult for America tonight.”

Kree Harrison got “American Idol” off to a rockin’ start on Wednesday.

The contestant — who ranked in the Top 3 last week — took on the Beatles’ “With a Little Help From My Friends,” working the stage and the crowd, much to the judges’ delight.

“That was a great way to start,” said Keith Urban.

He continued, “I love no matter what song you’re doing, you’re Kree… I don’t think you’re going to have a lot of trouble getting by easily tonight with a lot of help from your friends in America.”

Nicki Minaj told Harrison, “You just have started to kind of become this superstar before our eyes… You are the whole entire package.”

“I think it was the bomb, too,” said Randy Jackson. “We love you… You came out and blew the vocals out of the water… You look like you’re ready.”

And Mariah Carey said, “I didn’t think it was good… I thought it was fan-freaking-TASTIC! Vote for Kree!”
