Me too.  Can you imagine the people he knew who had never heard him who watched the show thinking he was going to make an @$$ of himself and the surprise they got?  Simon just about fell off of his chair I do believe 'cause you can tell by the look on his face before it started he was thinking the guy was gonna be a joke.
I actually heard about him on the news. I'm too much of a softy, to watch American Idol or the British version. I can't stand the way they chew'em up and spit'em out on those shows. I watched the first 2 seasons and couldn't take anymore LOL!!! I know the contestants set themselves up for it,but I just can't watch.  :no:

I don't watch much TV at all anymore.  I sometimes get the urge to watch dancing with the stars but figure it just isn't worth it.

Usually in my free time I come to The Zone. I don't watch TV until about 11:00 pm. I don't go to bed until about 1:00 am. Going to bed that late, makes it difficult to get up at 7:00 am, to get ready for work.  :rolleyes: If I'm not tired I don't try to force myself to go to sleep. It's a waste of time.  :yes:

Thanks for the update.  I would like to have seen the final performance but it's blocked here because of rights.  :'(  Oh well, at least we got to read about it.

What is that all about?  Like they don't get to watch American Idol when it is on!  :mad:

I think it's because of where the link goes to.  If we can find it on Youtube we can probably view it.

Actually, the link you posted was to the semi-final.  Here's the link to his final performance.  He returns to the Puccini piece and does an extended version.
