Seriously… Adam Lambert DOES have a fantastic voice and an impressive range. IMO, he’s THE American Idol contestant that walked into the place with star quality written all over him. Every aspect of his appearance, performance, sportsmanship exuded professionalism.[/quote]
I could NOT agree more. The high notes he hits with his full voice (without going falsetto) is crazy. So much of that is genetic, but the quality and tone that he puts ‘on’ his voice is money - that’s the benefit of training.
I don’t follow American Idol, but none of the other contestants have really impressed me. Daughtry is a good example of an average range with good delivery and above all else, a paint-by-numbers solution for a record company. In essense: “Hey! Nickelback/Lifehouse/Shinedown get a lot of radio play…”[/quote]
Absolutely.
By the way, Cat, not sure if you’re watching AI’s new season, but there’s a young guy who sounds like Lambert. He’s even got Lambert’s eyes. Problem is, he doesn’t have Lambert’s confidence, professionalism at all. In fact he’s got Tourette Syndrom and Asberger’s Syndrom. However, with a little work this kid could really kill in this new season.

No I haven’t been following, but holy crap. Great voice. He definitely has a future as a session vocalist without doing an ounce of additional work, but I agree that with some work he could do very well.
What a joke that the judges act like they had to think about the decision to move give him the nod, welcome to the non reality part of reality TV. From the first line he sang it was clear he’s a few notches above whatever else they’ve heard recently.
[EDIT - Damn you Randy for basically saying what I just said VERBATIM about falsetto/full voice.]
