Ditto! What I hate is how everybody raves about how "original" he is. Joe Cocker was better...hell, even John Belushi's impersonation of Cocker was better!
At least we don't have to listen to him yelping "Soul Patrol! Soul Patrol!" anymore.
He looks like Jay Leno to me. I just can't take him seriously. I keep thinking that he's going to say, "You ever notice ..."
The thing that's a little unfair is how he isn't really judged on his appearance. There's no way a chick - no matter how talented she was - would ever be able to pull that off. Stupid double standard!
Join the club, WCG. The whole American Idol thing...al they do is sing songs written for pop purposes that would be better off played in elevators. Just my thought. Obviously, with their ratings, I am in the minority. The competition part is OK, but the songs? AAAHHHHHH.
I must be the contrarian here. While I really don't enjoy the music being force fed to him by the American Idol people, and I agree he's really not much better than a blues cover band singer, he at least is not the same old same old. Since I am so ashamed that I've bought into the hype of AI, at least I can temper it with the fact there was someone in the race who isn't just channeling Mariah Carey. Soul Patrol!!
I don't even know who that guy is, but I thought it was Benny Hinn, only the funniest, scariest, best-coiffed televangelist/healer/scheister in the history of TV. It's not him? That kind of makes me sad.

Don't think I have ever heard him sing, but he does have a good first name!
PD

He does have that quality, too. The hair is something else. And what's with all the commercial gigs all of a sudden?
