Confessions.

So, my confession. I'm at home alone and I'm watching American Idol. sigh....and it's Beatles night. Now, a large portion of me watching this is due to the fact that we don't have a remote control. The other part of it is guilty pleasure and some sort of masochistic tendency. It's awful. The one's who actually know who the Beatles are just aren't doing them justice, because, well, they're on American Idol and singing the Beatles. The rest keep making comments about how they had never heard the song they are singing until this week, or when I sang this song in middle school it really touched me (despite it being the most covered song of all time and certainly not the most touching Beatles song by a long shot). So, am I old? Or just too cool for American Idol? The Brief History of the Beatles as narrated by Ryan Seacrest and cut down to 1:30 almost made me puke (or more accurately actually get off the couch and put on a DVD). I think I'm just too old for American Idol.
