Well, I sure didn't see this coming...

...but I must say I'm pleasantly surprised:



American Idol(s) singing Hillsong's "Shout To The Lord."  They actually sang it twice, but the link above is the best of the two performances.  

Simon likely thought it "self-indulgent," his usual response to Christian songs.  

I don't place any great spiritual significance on this, actually, but it is still better than a sharp stick in the eye.

h/t blog.worship.com.  Thanks!

I agree. I saw it the first night and was a little upset because instead of singing "My Jesus" they sang "My Shepherd". But then they sang it AGAIN the second night and they sang "Jesus." I thought it was beautiful - and no matter what Fox's reason was for doing it - I am sure some people were touched by it. That song has a way of doing that.

Jeff...so THAT'S what happened.

Just kidding, it's a joke. Tell me you're laughing with me...
