The X Factor's Danyl Johnson Video

The British version of American Idol, The X Factor, this weekend premiered in England, switching to the even more dramatic live-audition format of Simon Cowell's other big across-the-pond reality hit, Britain's Got Talent. And auditioning Saturday night, non-coincidentally in the all-important "pimp slot," was hunky and likable schoolteacher Danyl Johnson. And this teacher gave an A+ performance, for sure.

How good was Danyl? Well, he managed to accomplish the unthinkable: Danyl not only made Simon Cowell smile, but he inspired Simon to give him a standing ovation...and Simon even declared Danyl's audition of the Joe Cocker version of "With A Little Help From My Friends" "the single best first audition I have ever heard."

Here's the Danyl Johnson video link - singing "With A Little Help From My Friends".
