		<description>Taylor&#039;s audition is seriously one of the best EVAH in AI history (I have it on my ipod). He&#039;s unique, his voice is unique, he&#039;s not a cookie cutter singer like all the rest.

What a physical transformation from then to now -- the clothes, the hair, the confidence.</description>

		<description>You can call it getting ratings.  I think it&#039;s
taking advantage of the ignorant and those not quit right. Like all of the reality and talk  shows do on TV.  500 channels and nothings on.

That&#039;s just how I feel about TV.</description>

		<description>@ morewines -  It&#039;s all about ratings.  AI knows that there is a segment of viewers that only watch the auditions to gawk and make fun.  That faction generally drops off once the final 24 is announced.  As for AI, they will take it any way they can get it.  Therefore, we&#039;re talking Monterrey Jack and Parmesean Cheez Whiz.</description>

		<description>Maybe if American Idol hadn&#039;t added all the cheese
the singers might be taken seriously.  The cheese
as in putting all the nutcases on TV.</description>

		<description>Jen--
I think Taylor needs to become the AI rebel.  Really distance himself by exposing how really un-supportive they have been for him.  Expose it all, but he can&#039;t be un-gracious.  Fine line.

The collaborations on this next CD will be vitally important to that street cred.  Out of all of the AI spawns, Taylor has the most credible kun-NECK-shuns to credible artists, so hopefully that will help him distance himself from the stigma of fromage.</description>

		<description>I wonder what it will really take for an Idol to crossover and earn street cred.  Is it even possible?  Or are the powers that be on that side of the street just going to stick their fingers in their ears and yell,&quot;LA LA LA LA LA!!  IDOL!  IDOL!  NOT LISTENING!  NAH NAH NAH!&quot;</description>

		<description>MM,

Hicks deserves street credit but my radio station will not give it to him even though they interviewed him.  I asked the one DJs why. He said they don&#039;t take American Idol contestants seriously. Only one other time did they give a moment to one other American Idol. That was Constintine. They played his version of a Queen song. The reason why is he nailed it. I was surprised to. It was exceptional.

The radio station I listen to is an Adult Alternative Rock station.</description>

		<description>Just to let you know, Bo Bice&#039;s 2nd album was released last fall. It is called Witness and the title song video was #1 for 3 weeks in a row on VH1. This is the album that should have been made. It is Bo&#039;s album. His music, his voice, what his fans were looking for and missed in the 1st album. Check it out. It&#039;s available at Walmart which has exclusive distribution. I gave a dozen cc&#039;s for Christmas, everyone loves the album</description>
