BROKENOTE MOUNTAIN VIDEO FROM AMERICAN IDOL

Garet Johnson was never going to be the next American Idol. But he made for amusing TV, so producers kept him around, and then taunted him mercilessly at the end with a mocking trailer called Brokenote Mountain. It really seemed a little much. Especially on Valentine's Day. Then after the trailer ended, and with it, Johnson's hopes, he sobbed in the arms of another cowboy. All that was missing was an "I wish I knew how to quit you" quote.

Watch the trailer here.
