I like the Norweigan guy and thought he did a great job but I have to wonder if he completely deserved to win. I think mainly the reason he won is not only because he sang "Beautiful Day" so well but because he sound EXACTLY like Bono. They showed a clip of him during the competition in Norway singing another song (can't remember the name) and, once again, he sounded exactly like the original singer. I kinda feel that he tries to sing like the original artist rather than adding his own interpretations to the song. I wonder how he would sound if he was given his own original music to sing.
While I was on a cruise last year, there was a guy who was a vocal impressionist who performed. He sang "Hero" by Enrique Iglesias, "Beautiful Day" by U2, and even "Hit Me Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears and he sound EXACTLY like the original artist. Talented? Yes. But, I wouldn't say he's the best singer in the world as he makes his career trying to sound like other people. I feel that the Norweigan guy does the same thing.
