Out of thousands of entries, "No Turning Back" has been chosen by the judges of American Idol to be among the  TOP 20 songs to be voted on by the pubic in the American Idol Songwriting Competition. The song with the most votes will be the featured song sung by the two finalists, and then again by the winner in this season's grand finale- watched by over 30 million people. Additionally, the song will be released as the American Idol winner's first single. They are not allowed to ask you to vote and give Curt's song  "No Turning Back" a rating of 10. However, below is a link where you can go to register and listen to "No Turning Back" along with the other songs in the competition. To listen to Curt's song "No Turning Back" & vote...
