Scotty McCreery is a mediocre singer. Lauren and Haley are both very good.

Lauren is the best of the three, and is the second-best singer of the Top 13.

The best singer this year was Pia Toscano. Kendra Chantelle would have given this year's women a run for their money.

America knows nothing about music or musical talent. Country music fits the taste of the musically ignorant, and Hollywood doesn't help matters by propping up middling performers.

This kid reminds people of Randy Travis? He's a country throwback? Awesome! I guess poor white folks with Grandad's education level can be impressed while he sings the intentionally dumbed-down pablum of Nashville.

He seems like a nice kid and I really do hope he succeeds, but let's not pretend he's anything other than a vehicle for making publishers a boatload.

I agree 100%. She is also the most marketable and had the best voice. However, I wouldn't go to one of her concerts because I'm not into that kind of music. I like Rock. That said I wouldn't go to a James Durban concert either, he's a great kid but not my kind of Rocker. If I were to go to a concert it would be Haley's. She has the most unique voice of them all and well suited for the kind of Rock I listen to. Lauren is more fun to watch than Scotty but Country is not my cup of tea, it's surprising how many Country fans are on this thread since they never really came out like this in years past.

It should have been:

Pia
Haley
Lauren
Scotty
James

in that order.

Again, you are solitary on this friendly thread to insult everyone who feels differently from you. You should probably seek out some kind of Holy Experts Thread, because here we respect all of each other’s differing opinions without insulting one another. How would you think we would like to receive such holier-than-thou comments?
