I think the second album is the real guage since the first often isn’t what the artist wants to do, but is a compilation of what others want them to do. jmo

I agree, especially in the case of former AI contestants who are signed by a unit of the Sony-BMG behemoth. For example, if Taylor is ever going to be successful, this second, and independent, album is his best chance. He needs to pick really good music, have great production values on the record, and market it intelligently. In other words, he should follow the same formula that both Elliott and Josh followed.

I guess the song writing contest isn’t all that, either.
