American Idol Season 8 Premiere: Audition Pics Galore!

After two hours worth of American Idol auditions, we don't think we've seen the next Daughtry or Carrie Underwood.

Still, here are the contestants that impressed us the most last night:

• Emily Wynne-Hughes: From Los Angeles, sang “Barracuda” by Heart
• Stevie Wright: From Phelen, CA, sang “At Last” by Etta James
• Katrina Darrell: From Chino Hills, CA, sang “Vision of Love” by Mariah Carey
• Deanna Brown: From Louisville KY, sang “Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay” by Otis Redding
• Alex Wagner Thugman: From Studio City, CA, sang “Baby Come to Me” by James Ingram
• Arianna Afsar: From San Diego, CA, sang “Put Your Records On” by Corrine Bailey Rae
