The American Idol Live Thread is like Free Republic's version of the Algonquin Round Table -- some of the wittiest, classiest and most urbane of FR gather to discuss matters of utmost cultural importance, such as Constantine's tongue and the proliferation on melisma in modern singing.
I truly think this thread is a sparkling gem in the pavement of the information superhighway!
Oh I'm saving that one! Don't be surprised if you see it on next year's threads :)
