The dominant theme this season seems to be that people aren't "connecting" with their songs (which I totally agree with) but how much can they connect with songs they haven't written and possibly haven't heard before? How much can a 17 year old relate to Stevie Nicks or (especially) Carole King? I feel like Carole King sprung from the womb an old soul before she ever dated James Taylor and went through whatever she went through when she wrote songs like Natural Woman.
A great example: Lily Scott's tampon commercialization of Patsy Cline. That made me angry. How did the judges like that terribly perky take on Patsy?

You know who seems to be connecting with his song? My boyfriend Casey James.
