Okay, to start, I am not the biggest fan of American Idol. I feel like each season is exactly the same and half the people do not come off as being very talented.
Even more than my distaste for American Idol is my distaste for people covering songs by John Lennon or any of the Beatles. That is UNLESS they do it well, like Jack Johnson's cover of Imagine for the Instant Karma CD. Another great performance I found of Imagine was by David Archuletta on American Idol:
Of course, American Idol decided to try to market themselves on the hype of a Lennon song and made a episode where the contestant sang Lennon/ McCartney songs. Everyone bombed:

- I am Brice. I have been writing since I was 10 and soon after I started it became my passion. I think writing is about exploration and experimentation. How is what you wrote supposed to be meaningful when you say what's already been said? I try to draw influences from outside the literacy world but I admire many authors, specifically poets. T.S. Eliot and Lewis Carroll probably more than any others. The Beatles have been more of an influence on writing than I have ever expected as well. I thought this blog would be a good median for me because it's friendly to the world of writing and it's a good place to just let loose of emotions and ideas through blogging. Thanks for your interest.
