Remember Daniel Powter? Whose "Bad Day" song escorted home all American Idol Season 5 contestants? Yeah, me neither. Poor bastard is probably holed up somewhere with the guys from Deep Blue Something and Alannah Myles.

Wonder what song they'll use for the exodus theme this season? Seeing Ryan Seacrest in Times Square Monday night got me sadly excited for Idol again, even though I swore off watching it due to the enormous time suckage and the extreme boredom drummed up by Jordin, Haley, Melinda, and Phil Stacey and the rest of the Season 6 zombies. Last year it was a DAUGHTRY track so I'm figuring they'll use something Idol related.
