I agree with you about those songs. Not very compelling at all. In fact, they were so boring that I couldn't remember the song at all from one singer to the other.

[A CA Guy]

Hey. I'm just reporting what I saw at the concert. The women were far more critical and some were saying she looked like a cow.

Her voice was OK, but to be honest, wasn't that impressive. In her case, I think it was due to being on tour for a while.

[A CA Guy]

The songs were forced upon them I think and I thought they were also horrible songs.

Even my four pound dog was barking at them they hurt so badly.

[texasflower]

I meant to tell you that I saw Anthony last night on the Ellen Degeneres show.

I guess it is a repeat show since I think she airs daytime.

Anyway he was relaxed and very charming. Ellen seemed to really like him. She's an easy going interviewer, but she seemed especially interested in him.

I was suprised though, that he sang on the show. He sounded very good-but you know how I feel about Anthony. :-) Seriously though he was good.

I didn't think they could sing on any other show until the season is over. Maybe I'm making that up though.

Have you ever seen any of them sing on any other show after getting the boot?

[texasflower]

Don't get me wrong, I despise Kelly's new look. She was so cute and wholesome looking before. Now, she looks hard and tough.

That punk rocker thing turns me off. But she does have a good voice. I like her older stuff better, just because I like that type of music better.

That Black-eyed Pea girl is very sexy in appearance, but I don't know if I've ever heard her sing.

I'm really not that much of a music fan at all to tell you the truth.

I love AI because I like watching these kids improve each week.

When I'm in my car, I hardly ever have the radio on and never at home.

I will buy some music, like Diana DiGarmo's CD because I liked her on AI.

[texasflower]

If I find some of Wolfstar's posts I'll ping you to them. Kelly has done VERY well.

Hey wolfstar, we have an unbeliever here!

[texasflower]

You've got very good taste.

What do you think of Carrie?

[texasflower]

I wonder if they will post the lyrics on the AI website tomorrow. Maybe they read better than they sound.

I was also impressed by Nadia's classiness and showmanship. I thought she should've won the whole enchilada.

Carrie? Very pretty, nice voice, real American success story. But I'd've given top prizes to Nadia.

Who do YOU think will win?

[A CA Guy]

Maybe if we let Stevie Wonder translate.

[texasflower]

Nadia was a great performer. I sure wish she hadn't done that mohawk thing. I think it hurt her. It was pretty hard to forget.

But she sure had style!

I'm really a bit torn about this right now. I've had some issues with Bo, because I don't think he's got any place to go really. He sounds the same all the time to me. Yet he is the better showman, even if I don't personally enjoy the show.

I love Carrie's voice, but bless her heart she's just so stiff and nervous all the time. Yet she has more of a career in front of her.

To tell you the truth, I would like to have seen the finale between Anthony and Carrie. But only because I think Anthony and Carrie have clean pure voices. They still need work, but I like a work in progess.

Of course, with the romance between Carrie and Anthony, those two competing at the end would have been tough!

I guess my pick is Carrie.

[A CA Guy]

I know she has had two big songs. That's more than most can say.

I think she can do more to.

[texasflower]

LOL! That was a good one. See what I mean? You are a confusing but interesting person.

[A CA Guy]

Simon already said before the show tonight that she won.
I think he knows stuff the public doesn't know, so she is your winner I bet.

[A CA Guy]

Well that is why God put men on this earth, for women to fix and civilize them.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU IN THAT! LOL

[texasflower]

He said she won or that he thinks she will be the winner?

[A CA Guy]

Too Spice Girl for me.

[texasflower]

I'm divorced, so apparently I'm no good at that anyway!

[texasflower]

It's a torch song.

What does that mean? I've never known what that meant. (I just learned "pitchy" a couple of days ago.)

[A CA Guy]

Yes, I had a call during the show from someone who saw or hear an interview with Simon who said Carrie would win already yesterday.

I wrote that earlier, I wasn't joking.
