Random Tune Therapy for Tuesday 4/13/10

After last week's "dramatic" judges' save (anyone else skeptical enough to think they might just be in need of a back-up system in case those voting get accused of racism as they have in years past?) and the admission that Tim is no longer being judged against the others because of his ability to seduce America's teeny-boppers with a smile ... it's hard to stay on track with my current weekly mission for Tuesdays -- to offer up a better version of one of the most poorly performed songs from last week's episode (as a therapeutic offering of sorts).

Which, in my opinion, means looking for a more soulful singing of Let It Be. And it's not that I don't feel for Katie who is improperly positioned in the middle of the "who are you as an artist" three-way between Simon and Kara -- it's just that I think that song sounds best from someone who's felt a little pain in their life. I can even keep it in the Idol arena by providing the link to Jennifer Hudson's rendition of Let It Be from the Hope for Haiti concert:
