On American Idol last night Simon Cowell gave Adam Lambert a standing ovation for the song “Mad World”.  This has never happened in the 8 seasons of this show.  If Simon likes you (which is rare) he usually says “Very Good” or Well Done” but for him to give anyone a standing ovation is a miracle. Let’s hope America agreed with Simon.
