I predict that the most successful person this year will be the deep voiced country singer. A CW voice like his is hard to find. But I don't think he'll win AI this year.
I just meant their group sing alongs are an indication of the depth of talent, this year. Also Scotty and Lauren's duet was beautiful. One of Lauren's best efforts in my book.

I not going to disagree about Scotty. He's definitely headed for stardom. Maybe the only sure thing on Idol.

I think the winner is going to be James Durbin or Pia Toscano, and they won't have surefire mega successful careers after Idol careers, in my opinion.
