View Full Version : New American Idol poll

Posting a new AI poll as requested by some of the people at the last TOTV meeting at Crispers.
Would like to see my favorite Carly Smithson win AI7, but would guess she will only make it at best to the top 4.
Still think David Archuleta will win with David Cook and Jason Castro also being in the top 3. May be an all male final two weeks of American Idol Season 7.

Wow, little David A's results really went down. I love Carly also, but she doesn't seem to connect with the audience. Maybe it's the tattoos? :dontknow: Also, I think Simon is hard on her, but as he said, it's because he knows she can do it and expects more. I just think little David A. would make the best American Idol. He's got the voice and face of an angle and has all the teeny boppers swooning. David Cook (not mentioning the big skull again :yikes: ) is a little too pandering for me. The "Idol Gives Back" on his hand, the eyes filling with tears at an appropriate time, also Simon put him down a peg when he said that he didn't think David Cook was as good as he thought he was. He was getting a little big-headed (Pun intended!) 1rnfl

David Cook seems to be the frontrunner now in this new poll.
Did TOTVers like last season's Blake Lewis? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blake_Lewis He was the beatboxer and singer. Thought he was very original even if this art is not to my taste.

I liked the other Boy Band guy last year (Chris I think) more than Blake. I thought Blake was awful when he appeared earlier this year on AI.
This year David C will have the biggest career followed by, drum roll please....
Kristy Lee Cook with a Country career.

I still think Michael Johns will have the biggest career. Did anyone see him on Ellen? (swoon) Kristy may have a good country career. I wish her well, even though she wasn't my cup of tea. I'm more of a Amanda rocker person. :o

If MJ has any career it will be very short lived - He'll need some great songs to accompany his looks or he'll be yesterday's news.

Kristy Lee Cook seems like a very smart blonde. She sure changed her appearance and tactics when it looked like she was going to get the boot near the Top Ten cut off point. Think she will do as good or better than Kellie Dawn Pickler in country music.
I've been with Syesha from the beginning, and not gonna change my mind now. I think now, she will really let loose. And, a sleeper, too, haven't seen much talk of her on here at all.

She was really good last night which I hope will keep her off of the elimation couch and on the safe stools. Unfortunately, Jason Castro might be leaving the AI stage as the Top 5 takes shape. Mr. Castro or Ms. White I expect to be still standing when they come to the bottom two tonight.

Jason couldn't handle Andrew Lloyd Webber no matter how clever the arrangement. Thought Brooke would have done better.

She did seem to do really well last night but David Cook also did quite well IMHO. Was not all that enthused about any of the other performances.
See that Brooke White is the new target with the VotefortheWorst.com site. It was Kristy Lee Cook for a number of weeks just before it was Amanda Overmyer.

Really surprised that Brooke White was not in the bottom two. Guess this has become more of a who has the most loyal fans.
Was it the stools that were for those safe or had it been the couch? Maybe, they switch them around??

What a show last night I am still trying to figure it out.
I knew Carly would go but I thought she had one more week at least. Brooke seems charmed. She has been in the bottom 2 so many times and makes it out. Wow! Jason was so awful but he must have tons of teens out there voting. Fan base is opying out over talent, to bad. ::) ::)
I found Andrew Lloyd Weber hard to look at!!! He seemed nervous and uncomfortable on stage, very odd, maybe writing beautiful music doesn't make you comfortable on stage!!!!!
Can't wait for next week.

I agree, Beady. I thought Jason was awful. When he yawned and started swinging his arms around like he was bored, it just turned me off. He should have gone. I hate Carly's tats, but she is a good singer. It was shocking for her to be cast off rather than Jason. He's such a blah guy. He has no range and IMHO, very little talent.

I agree with Beady about Andrew Lloyd Webber, he is very nervous and hard to watch. When Brooke forgot the words, I thought that was it for her. The fans never fail to amaze me.
I'm actually liking David C more as the weeks go by, and Jason a lot less. It is turning into an interesting contest!

04-30-2008, 04:00 AM
See the two ladies in the bottom two tomorrow but have no clear idea on who will go. Brooke White seems to have quite a fan base including Simon Cowell but Syesha Mercado has more talent IMHO.
Jason Castro also seems to have a very large voting fan base.
See a final with the two Davids with maybe David Cook winning???

:agree: with everything you said Tal. What was with Paula???? Judging two songs when Jason had only sung one? I know she can be weird but it seemed to me that she had actually prepared that answer. Kind of makes me wonder if that show is as up and up as they say it is. I just thought that was very strange. :dontknow:

I really like Brooke as a person. She seems very nice and generally a positive person. Yes, her departure was very emotional. I have to believe she saw it coming though.

Ms. White does seem to be one of the nicest people who have been contestants on American Idol.
Hard not for her to see it coming though. Expect Syesha Mercado also sees it coming soon.
Saw Kristy Lee Cook in the audience at last night's results show.

Ryan lost me when he made his little speech about rumors and Paula still being a part of the AI family. I still cannot figure out what was going on on Tuesday night. Chels is right she looked like she was reading her critique from a prewritten card????? It is supposed to be live and that suggests they get a "pre-performance?????
I felt sorry for Brooke, she has a warm voice that is a bit unusual. I think she will succeed once she finds her "zone" as Randy and Paula talk so much about.
I personally think it will be between the 2 David's, and I hope Davis Cook wins. He can change things up and move the arrangements around, that's talent. David A is good but young, there is a place in the music world for him, just not yet. IMHO
Hope I don't have to eat my words in a couple of weeks.

I missed that speech about rumors on Tuesday night. Must have fastforwarded it trying to get to the singers. I usually watch something else and just tape AI. That's so I can zip through the non-singing parts.

Beady and Tal, the rumors consisted of Paula being on drugs (not a new rumor) and that the show was thinking of letting her go. None of this is true as far as I know. But what do I know? :dontknow: I guess Ryan tried to set everyone straight by saying how much they love Paula and there's nothing to the rumors. I had seen some kind of biography show on her where it said she takes a strong medications for an arthritic condition she has or something and it makes her spacey. She said (whatever she had) causes her to be in constant pain. If that's the case I feel sorry for her. Look at what Jerry Lewis went through with all of his meds. I still say it was a weird comment though, and appeared to be pre-written and that makes me wonder about the show in general. However, I'll probably try it again next year, even though this season was very bland to me.

It did seem rather bland to me too with the exception of some singers still being in the running up through the Top Ten or so. Carly Smithson kept it interesting while she was in it.
Too bad the Rock Star shows are no longer going on. These were often a lot more interesting to rock fans than AI has been. These shows were Rock Star: INXS and Rock Star: Supernova. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Star:_INXS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Star:_Supernova
I have heard very little though about the winners of both of these reality shows that were a lot like AI without Ryan Seacrest, Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson or Paula Abdul.

:agree: :agree: :agree: Finally,,,I agreed with who was kicked off!!
And we're not far from the finale.
Hopefully, next week Jason will go instead of Syesha. She's SOooo much better.
Then I expect it will get down to the 2 Davids, Cook being my fav,,, Does anyone else think he's looking better lately... His beard and some hair on his forehead helps. He's so pale that seems to give him some color.
As for Paula, She's really been thru alot. Here's a little info I copied;
In response to the controversy generated by her behaviour, Paula Abdul told the media that she has been fighting chronic pain after a cheerleading accident that left her with an injured disc in her neck when she was 17.
After a couple of car crashes and a plane crash in 1992 the pain worsened and led to seizures, bulimia and depression.
Abdul explained that she has had 12 operations.
Paula Abdul said that she had been diagnosed with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy.
I loved Paula in the '80's and think the video she had on AI this season was great!!!
I'm so glad I don't have to be scrutinized like celebrities and politicians. :yikes:
I'd be in trouble all the time...
Barefoot
05-01-2008, 10:56 PM
I wasn't a huge fan of Brooke's talent, but I cried when she was eliminated. She seems like such a genuine person. I think it is inhumane when they kick them off the show and then expect them to sing a goodbye song. David Cook looks like a winner to me, especially now that he has improved his appearance.
I think Paula lives in her own little world. There is just no good explanation for judging a song that hasn't yet been sung. But it is very tough to always be under public scrutiny. As Mint said:

05-03-2008, 06:39 PM
That does seem cruel when they are expected to sing right after they learn they have been kicked off of AI. Most of them though can see it coming with various exceptions like Michael Johns, Melinda Doolittle, Chris Daughtry, Carly Smithson, Jennifer Hudson and Tamyra Gray.
Jennifer Hudson sure showed them though that she can show her talent elsewhere. Thought I saw her in the trailer for Sex in the City?

Tal,
JASON NEEDS TO GO, IMHO!!!!
Mr. Tambourine Man wasn't too terrible tho he forgot the words,
but I Shot the Sheriff was a real tanker...
Thought David A was the best.
Syesha was really good, and I hated that Randy made her cry.
David Cook sang really well, but I wasn't a fan of either of his song choices.
I saw The Reaper (movie). Pretty spooky,,, I thought it was good!

Jason Castro would be my choice of who I would like to leave tonight just because Syesha Mercado is so much nicer to look at.
How the votes have been going it will probably be Syesha Mercado though.

I haven't responded to this thread in awhile because for the past few weeks I've realized that no one from this season is going to make a splash. I though they were ALL mediocre at best last night. Jason should go but TAL might be right.
beady
05-07-2008, 05:39 PM
I cannot figure Jason out. He seems to be "walking "through idol as if it were a joke. I think he is trying to prove something but I can't figure out what.
His performances last night were ridiculous, and I agreed with Simon, horrible. You can't forget words at this point in the competition and you have to show more enthusiasm.
It would be a shame if his beautiful eyes and appeal to the teenagers is the reason he continues. I am very concerned for Syeesha, she is improving and was good last night but in danger of being eliminated tonight.
Both Davis's were just okay last night but I think they will be the final 2.
Russ....you got that right ,no one this season is really going to rock the music world.
Taltarzac
05-07-2008, 05:47 PM
Syesha Mercado will probably do well on Broadway.
This season though does not have someone who looks like a breakout star like Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Kelly Clarkson, or Fantasia Monique Barrino.
Have not seen much about my favorite from last season's AI-- Melinda Doolittle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melinda_Doolittle

:agree: Jason, cute as a button, has to go. He's getting worse every week! But, Syesha is getting better every week. Wouldn't it be weird if both Davids cancelled each other out and Syesha won??? Just a thought. David Cook is starting to make all the songs sound the same to me. I just think this entire season is flat and boring. But I keep watching anyway. :o

Jason seems to go out of his way to pick lousy songs, and his lack of motivation is amazing. He didn't seem to be too bothered when he forgot the words. He acts like he has taken a really strong tranquilizer, well, perhaps he has!
The two Davids are OK, but I don't feel personally drawn to either of them. As Chels said, the season is flat, but I keep watching!

I was disappointed with the song choices from the judges and the producers.
I think they gave the kids lousy songs. Nothing that would showcase their respective talents.
Syeesha was okay, David A predictable, and David Cook just a bit better than average, because I loved his version of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" He can rock, but he can put a spin on a ballard that is really different .So, having said that I think it will be the 2 David's in the final's. Syeesha is going to do very well even if she doesn't make it tonight, she's got talent.
I am hoping David Cook is the next Idol. :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

I'd be very surprised if i every buy/download any music from either one of the Davids in the future.
David A will probably win but have you noticed that he has no range? Sure he can sing louder or softer or faster or slower but he never moves off of the octave he starts on. David C isn't much better in that regard but he keeps his songs interesting at least.
In retrospect, Carly (tattoo girl) might have been the most talented singer.
beady
05-15-2008, 01:55 PM
Thanks Russ for pinpointing what I couldn't figure out about David A. You are exactly right.... no range, he just changes the volume.
David C.....has possibilities ..... he can at least change styles with some degree of success.
I repeat David C is my choice.

05-15-2008, 02:16 PM
:agree: I agree with you Tal, 'So You Think You Can Dance' is becoming a much better show than AI. I wouldn't buy anything by either David. But David C will probably win. Honestly, I have a weird taste in music. The only one I would have actually bought was Amanda and although she's been long gone and I still see Michael Johns as superstar material. It's not always the best singer that sells the tickets or CD's. (Sigh) I think Michael Johns had it all. (Great voice plus sex appeal) I still can't look at David C's big head. And I actually think all of his music sounds the same, but I agree, he'll probably win. Like Simon said to him one night "You're not at good as you think you are." I've always agreed with that statement.

She WAS way over the top. Reminded me of a black Pink (the singer).
Simon's reaction was kinda funny, shock or whatever. :yikes:
Have heard many rumors about her as she is from my town.
Everyone was very proud of her in the beginning,,, but not so much now.
I guess she got the big head.

Unfortunately David A picked the better songs Tuesday night and the judges all think he should win. I still think David Cook has more talent! Hope he wins in spite of that the judges say.

David A should win based solely on last night's performance although I don't see myself buying any of his stuff.
I might be the only person here who doesn't like Fantasia's normal voice and choice of songs so I actually thought that her performance last week was good. Kind of a Mary J. thing.

Oh, so disappointed with last nights performances. David C let me down with his song choices. Could it be he was tense and not as cool as he looks. I thought David A looked extremely nervous and yet he sang very well.
I think they are both extremely talented and I predict David A will win, even though I personally woud like to see David C. as this years American Idol.

Well this year's AI is now over with David Cook the winner.
Anyone planning on going to one of the American Idol 2008 tour dates? http://tour.americanidol.com/ Looks like they will be in Tampa on August 21, 2008.

Sorry Tal, but I'd rather watch the grass grow!
You guys are good, how did you know the Davids' would be in the finals. I'd never have guessed that.
I did watch last night (for some of it) only cause you guys talk about it on chat so much. I really hate this show and last night I heard the worse rendition of "Gimme a Ticket to an Airplane" which by itself is not a classic, but how could you make it as awful as it was last night. My Gosh, the Box Tops were no Frank Sinatra but this was absolutely terrible. Don't know the names of the performers (a guy and a gal) but it was so bad, I had to mute the TV, even the doggies covered their ears. IMHO.

I was watching Criminal Minds and taping AI last night so I have not watched a lot of the AI program from last night. Just caught the end when David Cook won.

Sorry Kathie but I got addicted this year. Now I have 3 addictions. American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, and TOTV.
I can't believe I am admitting this in a public forum.
Anyway my guy David Cook won last night and I wish him a smashing career. He has the potential. Made up for the disappointmentof my favorite losing on Dancing!!! :hot: :hot: :clap2: :clap2:

Yay, I am so happy, David Cook is this year's American Idol. ;D In spite of the judges all saying David A would win!! David Cook was so emotional when he won, and so was his brother, it was very touching.
I thought the show was good and really enjoyed Brooke's performance. She is a little late for folk music, but that is definitely her thing. All the former contestants were so relaxed and having fun, it was nice to see. I was also reminded of how talented a lot of the contestants are. Just imagine singing in front of millions of people!
Tonight, a two hour Season's finale of Gray's Anatomy. Yay. :clap2:
(Yes, you're right, it is boring here in Canada). ;)
