That’s the thing...on AI all the contestants sing covers of someone else’s hit song. When they sing new material that no one is familiar with it’s a whole new ballgame...probably why so many AI (and The Voice) winners have a hard time being successful outside of the show-having a hit song isn’t a given just because you won a TV show contest.
Man, Bobby with the contestants, arm around them, just staring at that camera. I bet he is a very self absorbed person. When he is looking deeply into their eyes with care and understanding, it looks like he is thinking “Wow, I look fantastic, how deep and caring I am appearing right now.”
