Season 9

[Lancelot of Camelot]

First show is on Tuesday Jan 12. Has any info on this years contestants leaked out? You all excited or find yourself less interested?

[TaylorHicksRocks]

I am looking forward to this years show...I haven't heard any leaks but I have been dealing with a lot here at home the best part is going back home to see my family and friends in Texas...It has been a busy couple of months for me and I am on the move again...

[Teddy G]

You all excited or find yourself less interested?

Less interested.

[Chopper7]

I'm with Teddy, not much to excite anyone after that nonsense last year. I'll still watch, however. If only I had a life!

Do you mean the nonsense of Kris Allen winning over Adam Lambert. The cool thing is we got to see Adam all the way to the end so it didn't really matter to me that Kris won except for my disappointment in the judgment of the American people.

[Chopper7]

Yeah, "Kris Allen", that was his name. I wonder what he's doing now?

[Lancelot of Camelot]

Yeah, "Kris Allen", that was his name. I wonder what he's doing now?

His album is selling ok certainly not as well as Adam's. He seems like a good guy, with good looks, a good voice and a very pretty wife. I think he will be able to perform for a living and have a good life.

Don't all rush to the phones at once, but here's your likely winner this year (if the AI people don't get their rush and have a chick win!):

YouTube- Samuel Larsen (covering Jonas Brothers)

The girls are going to like totally like lose it over this guy!

I love it a leak. So is this guy in the competition for sure? That would be the first Jonas Brothers song I have heard. Thankfully I have yet to hear the Jonas Brothers.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

[Chopper7]

But then again, there's this girl. Wow! Maybe she can win.

YouTube- Broadcast Yourself.

[Chopper7]

Oops sorry about the link on the last one. Try this one. Her name is Stephanie Daulong. Sings country like Carrie and is drop dead gorgeous!

[Chopper7]

OK, ok one more rumored Idol I like: Mary Powers--she reminds me of Melanie Safka (of "Brand New Key" fame). Sorry just dated myself fiercely.

[TaylorHicksRocks]

I listened to all of them and my favorite is Mary her voice is incredible followed by Samuel...

[Chopper7]

Ah, you just don't like those tall, sexy, long-legged blond bombshells. Hey, maybe she can actually sing!

[Chopper7]

Isn't it about time a black guy won again? It's been pretty slim pickings among the brothers since Ruben turned back the little guy.

That was very bluesy. I don't agree with drop dead gorgeous. She just looks like your basic blond to me. I am not quite sure what I was looking at in this video and I will leave it at that.

I never knew Melanie's last name. I was in love with her growing up. My favorite Melanie song was her cover of Ruby Tuesday actually much better than the Rolling Stones. Lay Down and One Tin Soldier were great also.

Anyway Mary was a bit reminiscent of Melanie like you said.

In the videos I saw of Samuel it was hard to tell if he could actually sing well because of the way he sang. Both the girls had better voices as far as I can tell.

[TaylorHicksRocks]

Thanks a lot Lance the only song I had ever heard was Brand New Key I think I was too young to have a say in what was being played around the house on 71'...Hence my love of Neil Diamond...;)
