I just read the other day that Blake has now inherited the Sanjaya crowd.... I wonder if that puts him in the lead.
Simon said it best: Blake is a PERFORMER, not so much of a SINGER. After all, that's what worked for Taylor Hicks, right?
TH is a MUCH better singer than Blake!!! But...I think Jordin will win, even though I do like Blake. She is the better singer of the two. Too bad Melinda wasn't in the finals. *sigh*

I agree. Melinda was robbed!! I always thought it would be Melinda and Jordin in the final for a battle of the divas!
I didn't realize it was the same song... my daughter knew it was, though.
I knew it as soon as Jordin started singing, but they didn't even sound the same. What was it that was said? Jordin mopped the floor with Blake on that song........

I was glad that Taylor Hicks won last year, but have been disappointed that he hasn't done more since winning. Kelly Pickler, Buckey, Chris, and Elliot Yamin have all gone on and stayed in the spotlight, but you just don't hear much about Taylor Hicks anymore.
I suppose it depends what area you are in. I say this because I've never heard of the other names you mention in that post, but Taylor Hicks was doing concerts all over the midwest a few months ago.
