If you watched Wednesday night’s American Idol, you won’t be shocked by Thursday morning’s iTunes charts.

Jena Irene Asciutto, easily the most impressive performer on the show, is also doing pretty darn well on those charts.

As of 3 p.m., her cover of “Creep” was number 47 on iTunes overall Top 200 singles chart.

The song was also number seven on the alternative chart.

And just to show that American Idol can still wield significant influence on music sales, Radiohead’s original version of “Creep” is number one on the rock chart today.

Two other American Idol singers cracked the Top 200 after last night’s show — Alex Preston, which isn’t surprising, and Sam Woolf, which sorta is.
