The twenty-first season of the reality show singing competition American Idol premiered on February 19, 2023, on the ABC television network. It is the sixth season to air on ABC since the series’ revival. Ryan Seacrest returned as host, and Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie returned as judges. The Idol Across America virtual auditions program returned from the previous two seasons. The remote auditions took place from August 3 to September 14, 2022, as well as a number of open-call auditions, and from these, the producers selected the contestants who can then audition in front of the judges.
“Ain’t No Way” is a song written by singer-songwriter Carolyn Franklin and sung by her elder sister Aretha Franklin as the B-side to her 1968 hit, “(Sweet Sweet Baby) Since You’ve Been Gone”. This song should not be confused with a different song of the same title, recorded by Aretha Franklin on her 2003 CD So Damn Happy: “Ain’t No Way” by Barry J. Eastmond and Gordon Chambers.
