Title: American Idol
Post by: LennonStarrFan on April 01, 2010, 02:41:05 AM
Next week the theme is Lennon/McCartney...
This show is my guilty pleasure. I love to hate it yet I can't stop watching. There are only two great singers left: Crystal + Siobhan. The rest are karaoke singers.

Omg I sooooo agree.
She reminds me of Janis Joplin a little bit, ya know?  :)

I wonder if anyone else gets that impression as well. I just think she has real, natural talent.
And plus, its always nice to see a different sort of artist on the market these days. I'm sick of the whole "little kid famous thing" no offence to anyone. Jonas Brothers, Justin Beiber (however you spell that), Demi, Miley, etc.

You know AI is a joke when singers like Lily and today DiDi are eliminated, and mediocre karaoke singers like Tim are left. But I'll still watch. If Crystal wins, then it will be the most deserving AI winner ever.

I really really don't like any of today's teen idols. Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, and especially Kesha have horrible music. The new music I listen to is from real talents like Norah Jones, James Morrison, Jamie Cullum, Alanis Morisette, Feist, Fiona Apple, Metric, Keane, Amy Winehouse, Adele, etc.
