I would not be upset if
Weird Girl
Hobo Jesus
Scottish Guy
Win the show. They seem to be the most original and likable of all the people on the show. They also seem to be the most able to actually write at least slightly compelling music when/if they win. The other 3 just seem like talents that will not stand out.
Trevin- Best pure singer on the show- will go the same route as every other R&B singer from these shows: He'll make a good living and have a great life, but won't be super successful. He won't be R. Kelly
Amanda-second best singer on the show- is a great singer & has the look, but doesn't have the voice to compete with the Beyonce-like singers out there. See above notes for Trevin.
Cassadee has no appeal to me. Her voice is good but not great. I also don't think that anyone that attractive could have possibly been through enough in her life to warrant any good song writing, so no bonus there either. If you're a good looking white girl, life is not as hard for you. Fact. Can't write good songs about how rough your life is when it's obvious that it's not rough. Taylor Swift tried it & sucked at it.
That being said, all of the people still on the show are talented people, just some are better than others.

She was actually a lead in a band so she might be the only one on there that has written music for all we know. And who knows about her life? Her childhood might have been fricked for all we know.

Good analysis, actually, even if not completely correct.

Weird Girl
Hobo Jesus

No doubt they are the most interesting.
quote:
Trevin- Best pure singer on the show
Clearly. Great voice, nice guy, but . . . so?

She annoyed me and I wrote her off until the last couple of shows. She's still not my favorite but I give her more credit than I did before.

Cass was already part of a large band, Hey Monday, they had a Top 25 billboard album, top 10 rock album, top 5 alternative album before she decided to go solo.
She wrote all of their songs, and they were signed to Columbia Records/Sony.
She's by far the most polished for commercial success should she win the show.

The frick? She sucked at it? 6 grammy's, 11 AMAs, Songwriters Hall of Fame, Entertainer of the Year, 3 quadruple platinum albums, and 'Red' will be there very soon for her 4th quadruple platinum album.
Definitely sucked at it.

How the frick can you tell this?
quote:
Trevin- Best pure singer on the show
When he auditioned I said he'd win. He's got a great voice and a story which will get votes. Since then, he's decided (or been forced) to sing female songs which just don't sound right. He does well, but he's falling.
quote:
Amanda-second best singer on the show
Eh.
quote:

Ms. Pope is one of the few female singers in the world who I can actually listen to. I put this down to her experience and Blake's influence. Whether this will carry over for the rest of the show I have no idea. But right now, my top 3, in no particular order, are:
Terry
Nicholas
Ms. Pope

So was Terry.
I'm in the group that dislikes Melanie... I think she should have been cut weeks ago, but that's just like, my opinion man.

I don't like Taylor Swift, but clearly she doesn't suck at this. I mean, she's only one of the more popular and successful singers on the planet.

Pretty meh from Nicholas tonight, took him out of his usual comfort zone and he didn't do too well with it.
Hopefully that gets him sent home.
