is anyone watching? I usually don't watch
much after the first auditions. Yeah, I
like watching the freak show. This year,
however, there are actually a couple of
people on the show with some "charisma."
That David Archuleta is actually quite
good and not totally annoying. Imagine my
surprise.

I
thought his version of Imagine was very
heartfelt and inspired. Not the usual
phony, cheesy AI performance.
I can't really remember any of the other
contestants though except the Australian
accent guy and the girl whose dad died.
They were pretty good too. The rest of
them have been pretty forgettable so far,
as usual.
