LONDON — Danyl Johnson apparently still has some work to do before he's a household name.
The 27-year-old singer's performance on Saturday night's telecast of the British talent competition, "The X Factor," has become a hot topic on the Web. However, most fans have been searching for "Daniel Johnston" on "Britain's Got Talent."
Johnson rose to fame after he drew a standing ovation from the normally reserved Cowell. The art teacher from Reading, England won over the judge with a rousing rendition of the Beatles' hit song "With a Little Help From My Friends."
"I have been doing this for eight or nine years. Danyl, that was single-handedly the best first audition I have ever heard," said Cowell, who offered a "wow" to his fellow judges after the performance.
The confusion surrounding Johnson could perhaps be blamed on Susan Boyle, who became an overnight sensation earlier this year on "Britain's Got Talent."
