Cosign. I don't think that the girl can sing...am I the only one who thinks this?

No, but only OTW & I took the heat for it back in the day... some things NEVER change around here :cool:

LOL--my husband said the same thing! I like Melinda though--she OWNER her performance last week.

You're not. I think Fantasia sucks and is absolutely horrible. This makes me racist according to GCers. I do think that Stephanie, Lakisha and Melinda are amazing and I'd be happy to see any of the three win the competition. But I guess I'm still racist because I think Fantasia can't sing.

No, that's not racist. The girl simply cannot sing :)

And I am all for Stephanie, Lakisha or Melinda winning this season!

I love Gina, but mostly because I love Rock and I'm ready for a rocker to win.

I'm still in the middle of watching over here, but I think the Diana Ross theme was an unfortunate choice for the guys. They must really REALLY want a girl to will this year.

I like Gina, just didn't like the song. But I'm a Melinda fan, big teeth/no neck and all.

Now I have to suffer through Sanjaya...

Oh my goodness .....as much as he has a beautiful voice Chris H. ,the big curly headed guy, butchehered one of my old time favorite songs "Endless Love". I was crying out for Lionel and Diana to come out on stage to resurrect it and to save it from the torture i heard last night! You just dont re arrange a song that has so much history. I love Diana Ross, big Diana Ross fan, and the guys i am sorry ruined the majority of those songs. I am with ZTAANGEL , i cannot stand fantazia either, something about her i cannot stand....nails on the chalkboard annoying cannot stand. But Melinda Doolittle she is awesome! She is like Tyler from last season just looks older then what she is.

Who did their hair this week? Chris S's hair looked weird and Sanjaya....poor Sanjaya.

Yeah, bad hair night with the curls...And Chris needs to wear his glasses - his tiny eyes get lost on his big face.

Snajaya is the #3 vote getter according to dialidol.com. Vote for the worst going strong, I guess? :confused:

I hope he goes home, I think it might be Brandon or Haley - both of whom also need to go.

Which one is Brandon?

I only watched part last night. I wasn't impressed. I watched Chris S and Sanjaya and then lost interest.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO CLOSE!

obviously no cuz people here are agreeing with you


Fantasia has a voice that is rooted in a strong gospel background...if its not appealing to you guys cool but to many, including myself, she can sing her ass off...its what you're use to and what you like...its cultural...doesn't make you racist to not like her style of singing, but when you take it to another level and say she has no talent or that she's horrible it makes you seem ummm...silly...because obviously a huge group of people somewhere like her sound....a vast majority of the population can relate to her and her music...I personally for a million dollars couldn't name a Carrie Underwood song, but I own both of Tasia's cds...its just what you like...

Grrrrr....WHY IS SANJAYA STILL HERE?!?!?!?!??:mad::mad::mad::mad:

He soooo does not need to be there. So many other VERY talented people have been sent home, while little Mr. I-can't-carry-a-tune-to-save-my-life is still on the show.

Brandon should have stayed! Sure he forgot the words, but he is a very good singer, in my opinion.

*sigh* ok I'm mad now

Are you serious they kept him! now that is seriously wrong. He has no appeal whatsoever and cannot hold a tune.....very flat.

I don't like Carrie Underwood either ;)

I don't either. And I don't like Mantasia. Don't like Taylor Hicks either.

I think Kelly is the only one who has come out with amazing talent. This time around I think Lakisha, Melinda, Gina (as a rockstar) and Chris Sligh are awesome. I'm hoping the winner ends up as one of them.

And the fact that a vast majority of the nation can relate to Fanstasia or her music, well that's scary. Send that over to President Bush so he can make a Birth Control/Abstinence class mandatory for all junior high students.

I don't really care for any of the AI winners except Kelly, and Carrie I like only because she's a Tri Sigma. Actually I do like her song "Before He Cheats", but I own her CD and in all honesty it's mostly not my cup of tea. Anyway... I can't stand Fantasia and I don't care for her voice, but to each his/her own!

Kelly I absolutely love. I think I've downloaded everything she's come out with.

I was never a big Ruben fan, but after last weekend I am now! He performed with Natalie Cole, Kenny Loggins, and the Honolulu Symphony and was absolutely amazing. Clay may have won the hearts of the AI target, but Ruben still has his appeal with the older, easy listening crowd...so good for him.

Carrie was a favorite during AI4 and I'm still a fan. "Before He Cheats" is still on repeat for me.

You Mantasia fans can have her. Hearing her crap on the radio makes me wish I was deaf. :rolleyes:

I have such a girlcrush on Kelly. I am so excited for her new album!

Now you've done it! Now you've gone and VOICED AN OPINION - you know those aren't allowed around here! Besides, you know nothing of culture & what it means to people... a white man like yourself knows nothing about culture... ;) :p :D bwahahahahaha

I guess it is what you like though. I am so impressed with Chris Daughtry right now and have fallen in love with "It's Not Over". I think I may buy his CD. America voted him out but he's doing pretty damn good right now.

I'm a HUGE fan of Chris Daughtry. I'm glad he didn't win Idol, mainly because he was free to do his own thing and not have to worry about that contract that all winners must sign. I bought like half of his songs on itunes:)

All the AI winners seem to be doing well except for Taylor. I haven't heard any of his songs except for the one he did for that Ford (or was it Chevy?) commercial.

I wasn't a Carrie fan but I really like "Before He Cheats".

I'm listening to "Before He Cheats" right now!

And I haven't heard anything from Taylor since his single came out. I think the reason his album isn't selling is because he is a performer. I would not buy his album, but I would fight for tickets to see him in concert. Just my $.02

I LOVE Chris Daughtry too and have since he first appeared on AI. I was devastated when he was voted off, but you are right, it was better for him in the long run.

As for Sanjaya, while I get so frustrated that he is still there I kind of feel sorry for him too. I think that he knows that he shouldn't be there and always looks awkward on stage.

I guess I do agree with you. Even though I can't stand him, I always do feel sorry for him. Especially when he's waiting for the results and he looks like a whipped puppy:(

Yeah, I actually have his CD, and I really like it.

And I just heard Elliott Yamin's new song, and while it's not my style... damn, the boy can sing! It helps not to have to look at him. ;)

I agree... I have his CD and love love love it :)

I think it's kind of weird when you hear his radio spots though (at least on the local stations it's something like "This is Chris Daughtry from Daughtry and you're listening to..."

I realize the band's name is "Daughtry" and he's throwing the band name in there to not sound like a pompous jerk, but I just think it sounds funny :p

I love the songs though and agree he was better off not getting the Idol title.

It seems like it doesn't even matter anymore who wins the title because anyone in the Top 10 is likely to get a record deal anyway and be heard on mainstream radio stations (I do find it somewhat funny that I don't ever hear Taylor, Ruben S, or Fantasia on any of the mainstream stations, although I think they get some airtime on 'adult contempory' stations which don't seem to be as mainstream in the DFW and yet some of the Idol 'losers' are played all the time on mainstream radio like Kelli Pickler, and Chris Daughtry who is getting tons of airtime on mainstream radio stations)

Does anyone know what Ruben is up to? I don't hear a whole lot about him....

I don't know what he's been up to, but last weekend he took part in the Honolulu Symphony's "Return to Romance" series and performed with Natalie Cole and Kenny Loggins at the Waikiki Shell. Ruben was amazing.

It was a WONDERFUL performance and I definitely got my money's worth!

Elliot was Chris's best friend on the show right?

OK so Sanjaya was absolutely AWFUL tonight! I thought that Chris was amazing though:)

You really thought Sanjaya was bad? I thought he rocked it! Total 180.

That crying girl was HILARIOUS! Made the show tonight for sure....

My roommate and I were wondering "Why on earth is she crying???" She was crying like someone beat her up before the show started or something. She kinda got on my nerves:rolleyes:

I really liked Melinda tonight. She was AMAZING!!! I would like to see her or Chris Richardson win.

My favorite last night was Jordin. Everyone else was ehh or boring, even Lakisha and to a lesser extent Melinda.

I thought Sanjaya and Haley actually had good performances this week. It might be time to say buh-bye to Phil.

I was sooooooo bored last night. I thought Sanjaya was terrible! Just because he bounced around and didn't look quite as awkward doesn't mean it was good. He still didn't sing in tune half the time.

I've decided I hate Chris R's voice. It's way too nasaly-I-try-to-sound-like-Justin-Timberlake for me.

And overall it was just blah tonight. I think part of it was the theme, though.

She reminded me of Marcia Brady when she got braces.

Ugh.
