#ThrowbackThursday Vote for your Idol - It's 2002!!─── 13:20 Thu, 18 Dec 2014
The year is 2002 and I am completely star struck! The very first Idols aired in South Africa and all I wanted was for Heinz Winckler to win! I remember voting from our house phone until the operator replied "You have reached your maximum votes for this number" and I also remember my mom saying she will send me this month's telephone bill. But for me it was worth it because we love hearing him sing!
Here he is singing his hit song "Once in a lifetime" - it is SA's first IDOL!
Who will ever forget his version of "Drops of Jupiter" *sigh*
