The lyrics are bitter and frustrated. This shit is way too stagily and mushy for them. Bah!

wow… I didn’t realize people still watched American Idol… I like that Jon referred to it as AI, because for a brief second it made me think about the AI Director in Left 4 Dead instead of American Idol… I love video games.

@billy, it’s a Kanye West song. What do you expect?

@everyone who apparently thought Idol was awesome. i listened to the track and, although it was nice, i’d put it directly alongside this cover by The Fray. they’re singing a song called Heartless and they couldn’t seem to find a way to put some, er, heart into it.

Kris Allen’s “Heartless” cover was probably the highlight of that top 3 nite a couple eves ago on AI. (Aren’t all the Idolizers just coming out of the online woodwork here? Ha.)

Adding that you should definitely check out the “Heartless” cover from American Idol last night.

Kris Allen covered it on Idol. It’s kinda sad that I know that, but we started watching Idol this year for Kris. He’s a local guy. He’s actually done some decent twists this year—giving Donna Summer a stripped down Santana-ish sound, doing Ain’t No Sunshine as a piano ballad, and attempting Falling Slowly from the movie Once.

There was a pretty good cover of Heartless on American Idol last night. I wish I knew the name of the kid but my roommate was watching it and I just happened to go in the kitchen when he came on. Randy Jackson said it was much better than The Fray’s cover. He sang it with much more emotion.
