American Idol: Brooke White's Performance Review

Brooke White is what I like to think of as the American Idol sweetheart this year. She has such a purity and innocent quality to her music that is truly reflective of her personality. She is a ray of sunshine on a show that is known at times for some ugly moments.

Tonight's performance was very much what we have come to expect from Brooke. Singing Sting's "Every Breath You Take" as she played the piano, she put a folksy spin on a song that we are used to hearing with more of a rock edge. That being said, she gave a very solid performance, despite not starting the song off well. But even then, she managed to make the best of that by acknowledging her bad start and simply starting over. What would have seemed like an incredibly awkward moment to some artists just seemed incredibly endearing and honest for Brooke. We have come to expect no less from her...
