'Idol' Shouts to the Lord...Again!
April 11, 2008
OK, Guys & Gals….
I don't often do this, but this doesn't happen often either. American Idol opened the show last night with an encore of " Shout To the Lord." Evidently it is the number ONE download from the night before.

I am receiving lot's of e-mail in response to this, too. And for a few nitpickers of you who said they changed the lyrics and took Jesus' name out, please listen closely; the second word and name they mention is who/what??????
And here is some background on the song for you. No offering will be taken.
AMERICAN IDOLS PERFORMED DARLENE ZSCHECH’S “SHOUT TO THE LORD” ON IDOL GIVES BACK
Bloggers and TV writers are buzzing about the grand finale performance of Idol Gives Back, which was predicted to be one of the most watched television programs of the year. According to those in the audience, the show’s grand finale, which was taped on Sunday at Los Angeles’ Kodak Theatre, has the eight American Idol finalists performing “Shout to the Lord,” the contemporary classic hymn written by Hillsong/Integrity’s Darlene Zschech.

My only complaint: the Aussie singer Michael Johns was voted off last night! In my opinion a real miss.
Thanks for all your comments,
