Judges' picks are kinda lame too. Can you point me to or repost the judges picks? I went back through the thread and haven't been able to find them anywhere. Have they been leaked yet?
To: retrokitten
Ultimately it's us voting and they can't really control that. No, but people with money can buy a bunch of Go phones and pay for a lot more text messages. Land lines aren't squat compared to text messages. Texting is going to determine the winner. Say you have 5 people. 4 are using landlines and voting for person A. The 5th person is texting and voting for person B. Person B is going to win by a mile. :) With landlines, you might, maybe, be able to get in 100 votes. With texting you can get in 3,000 votes. But, still, its fun to pretend like we get a say. ;)

To: grania
That's funny. Is Clive trying to say that we'd all be better off if Taylor were dancing in the dark, or that he's "in the dark" about how to dance? Clive says its about sex and making sure Taylor understands that. Maybe he's playing to the HAWT factor! LOL

No, but people with money can buy a bunch of Go phones and pay for a lot more text messages.Actually I did this and the text messages are only 5 cents each. I keep going in each week and paying in advance and ending up with far more than I need on each phone.
Got 1200 plus for ya tonight, Elliott.

With texting you can get in 3,000 votes. I seriously doubt that, not on one phone at least.
The other unfair advantage you forgot is phone lines. Whether it is because we are Seattle area or very rural within that area, I only get 3-5 busy signals on the landline votes.

The rumored order is E, Kat, Tay. However, this is based on people calling in the phone lines early to test the numerical order. I don't know how accurate that is. That said, with only 3 people left, order is probably not that big a deal, since all the performances will be in recent memory. However, your point about E never getting the pimp spot is true.
To: MarMema
You're near Seattle? We lived in Kent for six years. Really liked it there.

Vibrato is a tricky thing. Too much is schlocky and melodramatic, like a crappy opera singer. Too little, and the result is a forced, harsh and unappealing tone, which often is characterized as "flat" even when it's actually right on the note. On big notes, the voice should be allowed to "bloom" into the appropriate amount of vibrato. But what, exactly, is the appropriate amount of vibrato? Well, that's between a singer, his voice coach, and the audience ... and the audience always wins the argument! :)
As for "Open Arms," I blush to say I can't place the song. (I spent much of my formative youth doing musicals and singing in choirs, and I didn't really pay attention to the names of the songs I heard on the radio.) Um, is there someplace I could hear a clip to jog my memory?

I saw Chris and his wife on Fox's 1 p.m. talk show. What a pleasant couple! They are both looking forward to Chris's new career as a rock idol.
I hope he makes it BIG!!!
