Re: AMERICAN IDOL 2006!

I know American Idol isn't a popular topic around these parts, but how tone deaf is the American public to keep Katharine and vote Chris off the show? Too many people voting for good looks instead of true talent.

But they'll vote for 47 year old talentless hacks? Wow, I can't wait for Karthik and I to battle it out on "International Mid-life Crisis Idol".

If they play all of their songs as good as they did "hero" down in ATL, I think you'll have a run for your money!

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 2006!

Frankly taylor will always be a karaoke lounge singer. Frankly the guy makes me wanna vomit everytime i hear or foresee him "singing", if you even DARE to call it that. kat at least had a voice and hit the notes correctly, though i don't think she should have won. if ace, bucky, chris, elliot and the other dude sang better than taylor..it says A LOT. kelly clarkson and carrie underwood are the only people who won AI and have made it..and actually deserve it. Ruben's awesome, but he doesn't have the passion to do it. and don't get me started about clay, fantasia..and so on.

My wife and I were both born and raised in Southern California. When I was 41, I got a job offer here in Redmond, Washington. After living my whole life in one place (a very nice place at that -- coastal Orange County), I was ready for change and, besides, the job offer looked good.

I told Melinda that there comes a time in every man's life when he went through a mid-life crisis and then either had to get a 20-year-old blond girlfriend, a Corvette, or do something crazy like move to Washington. Without a pause, she said, "How much is a Corvette?" I love that woman.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 2006!

HA! When you said Taylor, I thought of Hanson.. Where is Grady anyways??


Needless to say, I have never watched an episode of that show, nor do I intend to in the future. The only ones I watched were the ones on the internet with the 10 worst or whatever. Those were great.
And back in the day, Paula was my favorite singer, and I won't watch it just because of her. She doesn't have the power to draw me into what ever she is involved in that she used to.

As far as "making it big" from AI, I love Kelly Clarkson who has had major air play with her CD's and I love her songs personally.
Most of the other winners i know of have had what? One hit?? Ruben, Clay.. Were there any others?

Anyways, It seems the women of AI have more staying power than the men.

Wonder why that is.

And, time will only tell how this Taylor fella' will do.
Will we be hearing some original music from him in the next coming months??

What kind of music was he partial to singing in the competition btw??
As in what Genre? Rock, Rap, Country, R&B?
Just wondering what genre he would be most likely to break into when/if his CD hits store shelves, and mp3 players worldwide.

Taylor won, what a shocker, I never saw that one coming (did I mention I was also blind, deaf and dumb?)

And, sorry to offend anyone, Chris was a jerk

His response to getting kicked off. The day after it was announced that he was kicked off, during an interview it was brought up that some of his die-hard fans said they would boycott the show now that he was gone. He told them to go ahead and do it. He then backed off the comment later when he realised he would be touring with the American Idol Top 10 tour or whatever.
