Beyond emotional
I don't know what my issue is, but the cowboy on American Idol tonight made me cry. You know the one I'm talking about, right? The dorky kid all decked out in true cowboy form, like the guy Red said "giddyup" to in Cabelas? The one who'd never sung in front of anyone but his turkey before? The one who was so nervous that he couldn't complete a sentence no matter how hard he tried? The one who can't afford voice lessons? The one who's never been on a plane, though it's always been a dream of his? God bless Simon and Randy for making that geeky little cowboy's dream come true. And for making me cry big crocodile tears. It's not even that time of the month. I'm such a loser.

I totally agree with you. I'm a music teacher and I have students that don't have anything...no money for lessons...nobody to listen to them, etc. I think it was awesome for the judges to give this kid a chance. Sometimes that's all a kid needs...a chance.
