I really wish American Idol would let them sing the type of music they're good at instead of dredging up the old time performers music for them to pick from.Anyway, Scotty did good & was still able to put his country sound in there.His rendition of Garth Brook's "The River" a couple of weeks ago was the best yet.He did as well, if not better than Garth.He'll be back next week & I can't wait!!
