took a look at the forums just now, read just a bit... a bit, but enough... does clay oversing his songs? yes is it a problem? nope they say that he oversings his songs, drawing too much attention to the singer rather than the song... ruben is much easier on the ears... uh huh, i don't disagree. but i don't think american idol producers spent all that money trying to produce a cd that i'm gonna play as background music/ for relaxation purposes. i might as well spent just a bit and get one instrumental music cd/ or better still some therapy sort of music. really, why woud i want to spend that sort of money? i'd rather buy one that i can listen to, one that engages my mind, one that i'll sit down and listen to and enjoy, rather than play it while i'm working. and why would i want to buy an entire cd that sounds essentially the same? no thank you... i don't think it's a problem to sound broadway, it's not a problem to look weird or unable to dance. eventually it's the cd that matters. i'm not going to see the person singing it. doesn't matter if he looks like an elf, got big ears, dances horrible, has weird facial expressions, is sweating all over, or got a 54inch waist. it doesn't even matter if he looks good, got huge dimples, great hair, or looks endearing. it doesn't matter-- i'm only gonna listen, not see. and whoever it is, he's just my idol. he's my nobody else, doesn't matter if he's gay or what. so what's the problem with these people? they're just trying to pick fault on the top two. and it's really stupid. quit that you morons. i dunno if clay's gonna win. but if he doesn't, it'll be interesting to hear all the rumours about some conspiracy, manipulation, blah blah... the fans really take things too hard. i'm not about to start looking for people to blame if clay doesn't win (notice i never say lose) unless blatantly obvious conspiracies are staring me in the face. the clay fans (fellow clay fans, specifically) are so into discussing the immense media attention unfairly bestowed on ruben. none of them seem to appreciate the fact that even with the lack of attention on clay, he remains the only one never to have visited to bottom three/two group. he has still gotten himself on the same standing as ruben. it's like one is running upslope, one is running downslope. yet both of them travel the same distance within the same time, though one has gravity working against it, and the other has gravitational pull on his side. who is better? even an idiot knows. alright, maybe not an idiot, but it doesn't take a lot of thinking to realise who's the better one. further comparison? ok, both have the stamina (pretend that is god given ability). one runs uphill, the other one runs downhill in the beginning, and then later as he gains speed (already has the fan support) he decides to just roll down instead; save the trouble. so? posted by Yee 11:13 AM . . .
