Hello, My name is Phoenix and I am an American Idol fanatic! I have watched every show from the first season on. Not missed one. Nope, you can’t tear me away. I have never commented on the show before now but as others do weekly Survivor updates… I am now going to do a weekly Idol update. This year has inspired me like no other season before it. Why, you ask? Raw, unadulterated talent like no other season before now. I already have my top pick for the season, the top 6 finalists and the first 4 to go.
Lets start with the first 4 to go:
The gals:
Brenna. I have not liked her from the get go. She is just too cheeky for my tastes.
Stevie. Great voice, just not this kind of competion type. Stick with Opera g/f.
The boys:
Bobby. Can you say “Oh so wrong!!!?” Oy vei!
Bucky. Good southern boy, but just doesn’t have what it takes to make it this year.
My top favorites in no particular order:
Ace
Lisa
Chris
Paris
Mandisa
and my personal favorite to take the whole shebang: Taylor hicks
This man has IT. He has raw talent, personality, uniqueness and just IT. I picked him from the get go to make it all the way. When I saw his audition, well I knew it then. He is just as Randy Jackson said… Joe Cocker and Ray Charles all in one talented package. He makes the hair on my arms stand up when he sings (this is a very good sign).
Well there you have it. My personal picks for season 5… I wonder how I my picks will pan out. We will just have to watch and see, won’t we?
