My American Idol Obsession

I've been trying to figure out why I'm so obsessed with American Idol this season.... No doubt to be the subject of a later, much longer blog post. But my short answer is that this is the first season that I have seen real, genuine talent that I would pay good money to see live, and whose albums I would buy. I'm still with Scotty McCreery for the win, but just can. not. get. enough. of this version of the CCR classic by the insanely talented Casey Abrams.
