This is going to be a good season. I like the talent level of the contestants. Even the stiffs are better!!!

I agree. Some have mentioned Season 5 being the best group, and it was. But it wasn't obvous at first. They gained momentum week after week and I think this season could repeat that.

I liked Goeke and the blond chick at the end. The 16 year old with purple hair is pretty good too. The emo-faggy LA guy has talent but I don't find him very appealing.

WTF was up with Simon. He tells one contestant that signing Michael Jackson means being over the top and being comfortable/confident about it then he pans the last singer for being over the top.

I find they have little to contribute to the performers.
