Waaaahhhhh … Farewell Jason Castro

(studio version of Jason Castro singing “Travelin Through”)

I’m a thirty something mama of 4 with just a tad of hippie in me…but I am SO sad that Jason Castro has left American Idol.  Yes, I know it’s not earth shattering.  And I certainly know there are more important things in this life than American Idol.  But for 2 hours each week, I lose myself in judging voice, watching talent, and enjoying personalities on this show. Yes, it’s flawed.  Probably fixed.  But it’s also fun! ;)  And Jason brought out the hippie chick from under the Mommy layers, I suppose.  It was fun to watch him sing his soul out and handle the flack with class, smiling all the while.

 

So, here’s to a young, hippie, dreadlocked dude who has a terrific voice, perfect pitch, strong Christian faith, and was just plain fun to watch.   I’ll miss you!   American Idol won’t be the same but I’ll probably still watch.  Won’t vote..but I’ll watch.  LOL
