Carrie Underwood's audition video

So, I've been listening to music on Pandora a lot lately. I'd previously been using it wrong and had dumped everything into one station instead of making stations targeted towards a particular genre. That had some weird effects... it would drastically flip genres (say, from rock to Charles Mingus) but once it flipped it would stay with a particular sound for a bunch of songs, so if I didn't feel like hearing jazz right now I'd be stuck fast forwarding a bunch of times. The station also kept playing Dido for some reason.

So I recently deleted everything and started all over making targeted stations, and that's worked a lot better. I just created a country station and "seeded" it with Carrie Underwood, and somehow got to wondering about Carrie's first audition on American Idol (which I've been watching fairly regularly this season, since it comes on right before House). Anyway, this site has the video of Carrie's audition.

Update: By the way, Pandora is really excellent. It's playing Arturo Sandoval on my jazz/swing station right now (and I hadn't ever told it that Arturo rocks), and on my classic rock station, for which I told it I like the Allman Brothers, it actually played two songs by them (at least one live) that I'd never even heard before (and which rocked). Anyway... highly recommended.
