Phillips said he didn’t believe he would ever be the winner.
“Honestly I didn't think I would make it to the judges…I am the first to admit I can't sing, I am just one who likes having fun on stage," he said.
"I'm playing my music man, get the crowd into it. It takes away from all the hard feelings that are around.”
