President Barack Obama made waves last month when he sang a few lines of Al Green's monster hit, "Let's Stay Together," on the stage of the Apollo Theater, his tiny performance doing everything from boosting sales of the original song on iTunes to prompting American Idol Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe to ask him to appear on the show. It's too soon to tell whether Obama's rendition of "Sweet Home Chicago" last night during Blues Night at the White House will be received the same way, but we're gonna say there's a pretty good chance.

Seriously, can the Prez sing or what?
