It is so awesome,&#8221; he said, later calling it &#8220;the biggest stage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;The entire world is seeing it. I&#8217;m just like in awe of how big it is, and I&#8217;m so excited to perform,&#8221; Sandoval added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">His first appearance on the competition series showcased his band performing a cover of A-ha&#8217;s &#8220;Take on Me,&#8221; which stunned audiences and even some of his biggest critics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Regarding his most recent song choice, Sandoval <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/tom-sandoval-says-americas-got-talent-helped-change-things-for-him-11793274\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:admitted;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">admitted<\/a> that his group tends to lean away from the songs that others would deem too complicated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;We had a couple choices that we couldn&#8217;t clear [rights to] or that just weren&#8217;t right for AGT, but we finally landed on [&#8220;Blinding Lights&#8221;]. And we&#8217;re doing it our own way.

Since appearing on &#8220;America&#8217;s Got Talent,&#8221; however, Sandoval believes the tide has begun to turn in his favor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I feel like, obviously, since a couple years have passed, it has changed,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And I feel like doing things like this, [with] people seeing me in a different light and seeing me do the things that I love to do and I&#8217;m truly happy doing, I feel like it&#8217;s a much better way for people to see me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Sandoval Has Found His Experience To Be &#8216;Positive&#8217;<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Cheerful Ariana Madix Finally Vacates Home She Shared With Her Cheating Ex Tom Sandoval\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"1280\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/LoOZI4ndz2ZhLUTcxeO1Lg--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTEyODA7Y2Y9d2VicA--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/theblast_73\/78ce6a37e43adc53a2bef68012e0f3b6\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>MEGA<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And his performance of &#8220;Take on Me&#8221; didn&#8217;t hurt, either.
