Daughtry does sound like a goat. I didn't bother watching anything else on the show last night because I knew better. I only needed to hear that Danny was safe. Which begs the question...exactly what does he need to do to get America to hate him? Fondling Allikat didn't work...neither did screeching...and neither did pimping his dead wife. So who else pimps dead people, screeches, and likes fondling young girls? Oh yeah, those evil guys in horror flicks, the ones you keep trying to kill but keep coming back to life. Wow. That fits Danny exactly. He really could star in a horror movie...as is.

So this site is where you came because we shared your values? That's funny.

"great, soulful singers"???? Really? Blo Lice was before my time, but if he's so great? . . .
Taylor is a really good bar singer - PERIOD. Cat McPee??? Please!! She isn't on the level of a "good bar singer"!
There have been FEW "great" singers in the entire eight season of I-dull. And that's just the shame of it - if they even mildly CARED about the quality of the singing on the show it would be very EASY to find 12 great singers every year.
Very FEW of the contestants on I-dull could seriously cut it in a decent club band in LA, Nashville, Chicago - or basically most any large city in America.

LadyHeather- Thanks. No. Yes. No. :)
Professor Chan- I didn't start watching AI in its entirety until Season 5 (used to just catch it occasionally before that)...but I thought both Clay and Reuben got contracts because of some snafu with the phone lines in the finals.

Adam cause AI embarrassment? This isn't Disney. The pictures he posted were tame compared to a Britney Spears video and remember where she started...Disney.

I do think Idol has produced a few good singers. Fantasia, Kelly, Jennifer, Clay, Carrie Underwood, Elliot and David Cook. David is the best rock singer they've had yet. He doesn't shriek or sound like a a goat.Ruben was good, too but is more of a one note singer. The rest are just o.k., kinda on par with the other mediocre singers today that sell millions. (Miley Cyrus, Rhianna, Chris Brown, Avril Lavigne).
A few of the contestants this season could be sucessful. Lil, Megan, Anoop and the top 4. It depends on what kind of music they make. Kris can go the John Mayer-Jason Mraz route. Danny can do something along the lines of Amy Winehouse or Daniel Merriweather. Even like Elliot Yamin's album. Adam can do emo...like My Chemical Romance or Panic At The Disco. Their music is dramatic and it suits his style.
I don't think Danny's as bad as people make him out to be. *shields self with invincible bracelets*

Mr. Mikebat, why do you say I'm on the wrong site? I'm simply responding to some interesting articles.
Is that because I can actually have some intelligent dialogue without dropping the F-Bomb every five seconds? Is it because I can spell or be nice to people? Is it because I actually use my brain for a thinking process?
If you read the "About Us" section, the very fact that VFTW thinks that Idol is rigged and that the best singers never make it to the forefront should open up some interesting conversation and credible debate, to say the least. I'm just stating some opinion - I'm not asking anyone to agree with me.
About a good singer.......when I say someone is a good singer, I'm not necessarily stating that they're in the same category with Placido Domingo, Barbara Streisand or even country music's Reba McEntire. There are MANY people in all genre's of music who are pretty-good singers, but what put them on top of the charts was a really, really good song or a very creative song. Case in point, (and from years ago) Johnny Cash, Kenny Rogers, The Beatles, etc.
Kenny Rogers has a very raspy, gravel-ly voice, but paired with the right song, he's a hit! That's the point I was making with Bo Bice, Taylor Hicks and Katharine McPhee. They are decent singers - paired with the right music - they could really be hits.
Now, if the whole point of this is to strictly poke fun at people, call them "Douchebags" and not have a shred of intelligent conversation............then maybe yes, I am on the wrong site. However, as long as interesting and creative articles are written, I see no reason not to join the conversation.

Final Four: Post Game Analysis
In true Idol suspense-killing fashion, as soon as Kris is told he's the first Final Three-er safe, the countdown to Allison's booting was a foregone conclusion.
Even bringing back Mr. "Shocking Idol Elimination" Chris Daughtry to tease an early booting for Adam went for naught as the presumed front-runner Lambert was sent into the Final 3 soon after Kris Allen (Who?) Really the only rationalization for Allison staying was that the "Producers don't want three guys in the Finals." Nope. Clearly they don't care.
Other than that it was a long uneventful show, so I'll power through in Random Thoughts Fashion:
--------------------
-- The Group Sing with Guest Accompaniment by Slash was a clunky but entertaining rendition of Alice Cooper's "School's Out." Adam did some lascivious pelvic thrusting and Allison got violent revenge for the Gokey Groping last weak by getting carried away and fondling his man-boob during the song. More Alice Cooper on Idol would be welcome.
-- The Car Commercial sucked, but I was amused by Gokey's purple t-shirt with suspenders style, looking like an unholy alliance of Leo Sayer and Mork From Ork.
-- Paula "performs" her new horrible song which featured more dancing than singing, even though all of the auto-tuning did the heavy vocal lifting for her. Speaking of heavy lifting, there was one nifty moment when Paula leaps off an 8 foot pillar into the waiting arms of her dancing dudes, who were paid hard cash to fondle her and pretend to enjoy it. You know Paula thought she could really fly.
-- No Doubt performs "Just A Girl". At least you know Gwen was singing live as she sounded horrible and out of breath. She was herky-jerky and showing off, even doing four push-ups to show she's sort of physically fit. I'm waiting to hear their new album. Will it hearken back to their "Tragic Kingdom" heyday, or sound more like Stefani's awful solo albums?
-- Kris is safe. I haven't been his biggest supporter, but Mr. Irrelevant survived to the Final 3 on cuteness and out-of-the-corner-of-his-mouth singing. I'm happy for him as he's been competing hard each week even though, "vocals, dawg, ain't your thing" what with this being a "singing contest" and all. The judges threw him under the bus last night, so it's fun whenever they're proven stupid, and Simon was WRONG (he declared that Allison was saved by her Foghat duet... which I still contend was mediocre.) Simon looking like a fool is always a good time.
--- Daughtry shows up to bore his with his repetitive and unpleasant song. Yeah, that sounds exactly like the type of crap he did on his last album. So 5 million people with no musical taste will buy this one too.
-- That video replay of Daughtry's "shocking elimination" never gets old. Watching him go from smugly confident to bug-eyed disbelief in 5 seconds is still hilarious. Daughtry tries to play it off like, "I got over it 20 seconds later." Yeah, right. You STILL sound bitter, dude.
-- As I mentioned last night I felt that Allison had mentally checked out on Idol. I liked several of her songs and she showed that she has strong musical talents and potential. Now that she's escaped the grubby claws of the Idol Music Producers she has a chance for a successful musical career. I'd like to wish her good luck.
