		<description>I must say that I saw Hits Daily Double predictions for album sales for this week- and man do sales suck.  Even Hilary Duff is only expected to sell 125k in her debut week.

I bet the record industry is sweating bullets.

They are obviously going to have to reinvent the wheel becuase they are losing millions upon millions of dollars in CD sales.</description>

		<description>oh yes! Sanjaya, his voice on recording sounds a lot better live, but his singing voice is exactly like his speaking voice. His vocals are always flat lined, they&#039;re all ------- there&#039;s really no peaks or valleys in his voice, he pretty much stays within an octave always and never really goes for anything (unless its the last 3 seconds of the song) i&#039;d like him to actually do something during the rest of the song. Picturing Sanjaya dancing cheek to cheek with a female makes me laugh</description>

		<description>Paul Stacey, not really looking forward to listening to this one because of his performance on tv bored me to tears, he&#039;s not a bad singer at all he just..isn&#039;t anything special? Simon was right when he said it felt like he&#039;d heard him a million times before. He doesn&#039;t seem to have any life or joy in his voice when he sings this song, it does seem dreary at times.zzzzzzzz over a minute left and i feel like i&#039;ve been listening to this song for hours
I&#039;m guessing Phil, Haley will be in the bottom next week, it&#039;ll be interesting to see who gets that last spot</description>

		<description>Melinda time! Simons right, you can&#039;t really criticize her too much, her phrasing is beautiful, her control is awesome. this song always reminds me of mr.hollands opus when they&#039;re testing out singers. Does anyone know who the idol drummer is? he&#039;s awesome and always looks like he&#039;s having so much fun on stage. Melinda blues-is up the ending of this song. I have no idea what kind of cd she&#039;ll put out after idol though</description>

		<description>Lakisha has a lot of control over her voice, i know a lot of people think shes really loud, but i don&#039;t hear that from her in a lot of her top 12 performances, she has the voice to go out there and yell every performance and still sounds great, but she always makes it soft and appropriate. She has a weird way of pronouncing words, and her whole voice changes at some parts that kinda freaks me out a little to be honest lol. The band probably loved this week as they really got a chance to shine in everyone of the idols songs, and you really get to perform, not just play chords but actual notes and melodys</description>

		<description>Jordin amazes me everytime she opens her mouth, her range and control over her voice for such a young age is phenominal. I could easily see me buying her cd. The trumpet playing in this song is excellent. She holds the last note on the recording a lot higher up and softer then she did live, and it was 6 seconds long</description>

		<description>Ginas arrangement is old fashion, she didn&#039;t really change anything that way (except the tempo :tongue1_tb:)I feel bad for Haley, a lot of Gina fans are going to blame her instead of realizing the only reason Gina isn&#039;t on the show is because not enough votes were cast for her as for the other contestants</description>

		<description>i didn&#039;t think taylors previous cds were at all soul music, but i like some of his previous stuff compared to whats on his cd but i don&#039;t really enjoy it all that much to be honest. there&#039;s no song on there that makes me want to listen to it again as soon as its over (which to me makes a great song).
has anyone heard the downloads yet? supposidly haleys isn&#039;t up yet, i&#039;m listening to blakes and i love it (although he sounds english when he sings all the time?) his voice sounds great for this genre</description>

		<description>rad, in all friendliness, the thing was that we were just talking about Kat and no one else.  I could be wrong, but I don&#039;t think mj minds us discussing the past idols, but what she doesn&#039;t want--I *think*--is me saying something nasty about kat and you going, &quot;well, nyah nyah, your idol sucks too.&quot; 

It&#039;s okay, I think Taylor&#039;s new CD pretty much sucks too.  But you&#039;ve said you like his previous albums and that you thought they were very soulful (or something like that), which was awesome.  Too bad Kat doesn&#039;t have any similar previous music that I could hear.</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;I guess weÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll see come May what Open Toes can do since itÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s rumoured to come out then for a summer song &lt;/blockquote&gt;

I thought that was an April Fools&#039; joke.  So sad.</description>

		<description>They blitz promoted her the first week because..she&#039;s not selling well even though they wouldn&#039;t know how much she&#039;s selling? that makes a lot of sense.

		<description>Kelly Clarkson is still selling her last CD, sure, but not exactly at a rate of 80K per week.  

&lt;blockquote&gt;RCA is happy with her because they continue to support her. If theyÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re not happy with her, theyÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢d stop promoting her and basically give up on her &lt;/blockquote&gt;

I think the one thing that can be stated about Katharine is that RCA will continue to milk her for all she is worth.  She is gorgeous and looks wonderful on magazine covers, and they&#039;d be fools not to play that out.  But we&#039;ll just have to wait and see if her popularity proves to be long-lasting, or if she&#039;s forgotten by this time next year.  I make no predictions, because I&#039;m not a fortune-teller.

But I do want to thank you, rad, for explaining to me exactly how the recording industry works, based only on your own buying patterns.  Wow, you know the ins and outs of the music biz, and Kat took Clive Davis by the balls and refused to allow him to release her album before January because she knew better than he did.  It&#039;s amazing that more multi-billion dollar industries aren&#039;t run by 22-year-old girls! :-)</description>

		<description>Regarding the RESULTS shoe..

Totally unfair.. Phil and Haley have been in the bottom three every week, and they keep saving themselves and now Gina is gone ?

WHAT THE CLUCK!?!??!

I really hope either Haley, Sanjaya and Phil are gone soon.

What is wrong with America?
 BLEEP w/ not only Blake not being in the top group but Sanjaya,Phil and Haley leaving before GINA.

She was one of my favs I can&#039;t even be happy for Blake now.. But don&#039;t worry I really am! Blake is my only hope in this competition!

Please, everyone use this is as a wake up call and get up off you lazy butts and vote for BLAKE

GO TEAM PLAID!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;RCA is happy with her&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Rad, why do you say things like that when you actually have no freakin idea what is going through the heads of the people at RCA?  I have no idea.  Maybe they are joyous over her sales.  Maybe they&#039;re kind of pissed.  But I&#039;m not going to make myself look like an idiot by stating things that I obviously don&#039;t know.  RCA also said they were thrilled with Bo Bice, and then they dropped him.  No one knows.



&lt;blockquote&gt;lol not true? okay then why do i do it, and a few other people have mentioned they do the same? &lt;/blockquote&gt;

lol then why do I NOT do it, and none of my friends do either?  And now we&#039;re even!

I don&#039;t know what your personal record-buying habits are, but I know that CD sales are down by double-percentage digits and that companies like Apple/iTunes are working with record companies to find new ways to boost record sales.  In fact, I just read several articles in the news about this.  And I&#039;m more inclined to beleive those articles and their raw numbers than to view the experiences of you and a handful of your friends as dispositive of the state of the music industry.</description>
