"The kid who has no idea how good he is" Alex's vocal tone is impossibly lovely: It's like listening to Joe Cocker,
only smoothed out with a sheet of super-fine sandpaper, decades of venue-related grit and life experience brushed away to something smoother and decidedly more innocent. As Kara* correctly noted, it was impossible not to root for Alex, particularly after viewing his guileless interview package and hearing him admit to having vomited from nerves before his Top 24 performance. ''I didn't know where to put my hands,'' Alex said, before explaining he'd tried so hard last week to be likable, that he'd almost had the opposite affect. In an era where most Idol contestants arrive at their auditions with a MySpace page of original tracks and prior experience in front of stadium-sized crowds — if not a (previous reality TV gig — it's kind of refreshing to ponder the idea of a contestant whose caterpillar-to-butterfly transformation could play out in a matter of weeks.
