no one's very instrumental

8:11 Simon utters, "You have the stage presence of a flea" to a very unforgettable contestant.

8:12 Some poor reviews for contestants opting for musical instruments. Looks like Brooke's the only success on this end so far. But wait...Jake's here to change the judges' minds. He plays a full drum set, in a perfomance I think sounds like karaoke. The judges call it just OK. Randy even uses my karaoke parallel. Simon: "There was absolutely nothing redeeming about it, other than that we stopped it early."

8:15 David Hernandez gets his own little segment, meaning he must be another producer favorite. We flash back to his San Diego audition, which did not air. Wow, he has the same hometown as Jordin Sparks -- Glendale, Ariz. This is going to be good.

He pulls out some "Love the One You're With" in a stellar performance. Why did they save this guy for Hollywood? He's good, very solid, with a jazz tone to his voice. The judges are ecstatic, even Simon. Three OK's.
