American Idol is a shallow TV show. It puts together everything that’s wrong in our society today. Good looking people who aspire to succeed quickly, without the required seasoning, experience, and the all-so-common failures. Successful performers/producers/singers (make your pick), who are “judging” the young contenders to the “American Idol” crown. The song selection, the clothing, the hairdos, the audience, the questions from the viewers – all shows bad taste, ignorance, and the readiness to idolize (literally) everything that smells of money and good looks. I despise this show, I think it uses the lowest feelings of human beings who want to succeed, but know that it is never going to happen for them. They will have to watch others as they make it, while sucking from their beer bottles, and picking on their peanuts. I wouldn’t be caught dead watching this show. Yet I wouldn’t miss it for the world.
Syesha Mercado doesn’t have to retire in Las Vegas, she can go there already. David Archuleta can go sing in shopping malls and elevators. He’s sweet, smooth, his voice sounds like petroleum jelly to me. I’m not sure how Jason Castro survived so long and why did they get rid of Carly.
And David Cook rocks! He’s absolutely the best. He’s creative, original, and his hoarse voice reminds me of so many excellent singers, yet he’s like none of them. But the one singer that comes to my mind when I hear and see David Cook is Bruce Springsteen, the Boss.
I love the guy. And let me tell you. David Cook already won the competition. The reason is simple. Every record company with minimal understanding would realize right away: David Cook is the type of singer who can fill up stadiums, and sell millions of CDs. David Cook is it. David Cook is the type of singer that will cause even me, at 45, to stand in line at Ticketmaster at dawn, just to make sure I can secure a concert ticket. (I know people don’t do that anymore, but I absolutely did). If nobody has done so already, this may be a good time: get this guy a contract, and let me know when I can download…
Go for it David Cook. I’ve been watching this ridiculous show and rooting for you!
