A Pleasant Surprise

I am going to start by saying I am NOT an American Idol Fan. I probably have never watched an entire episode since it has been on the air (yeah, I know I am a rarity.) However, last night as I was flipping through the channels and complaining about there being absolutely NOTHING I liked on TV (even HGTV which is my favorite) I heard this angelic voice which made me stop in my tracks! It was American Idol and it was Adam Lambert singing "Mad World". I later found out it was their annual “Year of their Birth” show (who knew there was such a thing?) Adam was born in 1982 (which was a most excellent year to be born, as my son was also born that year.) "Mad World" was originally recorded by British band Tears for Fears. I really enjoyed this performance, I hope you do to.
