American Idol

My first time watching this very popular show - the local girl, Siobhan Magnus is on for another week at least. April 6 was Lennon-McCartney night, good songs, and she chose "Across the Universe", a song without the high notes that have been irritating people, an beautifully sung.
Then Simon Crowell asked her what the song meant to her.
Tears and an invocation of family, the little sisters, all very touching, but if "Nothing's gonna change my world", maybe she doesn't want a record contract. Then her world changes. To me, the song is about the blinders people put on themselves in order to ignore the possibility of change. He kind of hit the nail on the head.
