American Idol just opened with the song Bridge over Troubled Water.

Seacrest just introed the song as a song “Michael W. Smith took to number 28 on the Billboard Music Charts”.

I found that a little humorous. Don’t get me wrong, I have pretty much been a life-long Smitty fan. He did that song very well.

He is just not the first person I think of when I think of think of that song.

Because Didn’t Clay Aitken cut that track too (smile)
