We usually do this every year just to see how we all think they stack up.

Who do you like or dislike and why or whynot.

For me it is.

1. Bo, great voice and I prefer rock

2. Carrie, probably better voice than Bo imo but I hate country music.

3. Nadia, Good voice, love her energy

4. Vanzell, also a good voice and I think she is growing stronger every week

5. Jessica, she should still be there.

6. Anwar, he was one of my favorites but he needs to change it up

7. Scott, like his voice, wish he would open up a bit more

8.Anthony, good voice, just doesn't do anything for me.

9. Constantine, so-so, been there done that way back in the seventies.

10. Nikko, Good grief, there must be alot of baseball fans in America.

I know my opinions will change, I didn't even have Bo as one of my top 4 picks when puttergirls game started and Anwar was my favorite.

Anyway let's hear who everyone else likes.

1. Nadia - I think she is unique and she doesnt lock herself into one style

2. B0 - nice voice nice personality

3. Anwar - I just like him even though he hasnt been performing very well

4. Nikko - I like the kid and I think with a good manager, he will do very well

5. Vonzell- I think she has talent but she needs to turn on the charm more.

6. Carrie - same thing, talent but needs some personality

I dont care for any of the remaining singers. When this season started I thought this was going to be the best AI yet, more talent than any of the other years. As I watch each week though the singers just seem to get weaker and more boring, unlike in previous years where someone always rose to the top. I dont see any stars in this season.

1. In no particular order-
Bo- I like rock; he is a breath breath of fresh air.
Constantine- I like the guy and again, refreshing change.
Nadia- Her sense of style is superior.
Carrie- needs to losen up and get a stylist to help with her clothes and hair. Best voice.

2. Vonzell- I am warming to her. Lose the processed hair (it is going out of style fast) and get some help with clothes. Great voice.

3. Anwar- he has been disappointing but I like the guy.


I just don't like the others at all. Scott is my least favorite.

You'll have to join the board but you can listen to all of the performances in MP3's. I listened with headphones. You'll get a whole new perspective when you're not looking at the person singing.

Also, after visting this site, I completely changed my evaluation of Constantine's singing ability.

Carrie - Best Vocals and sweet personality
Jessica - BS that she is gone
Vonzell - She is improving so much week by week and seems so thankful for the opportunity (she doesn't act like she knows shes good)
Anthony - His vocals are great - now if he can get past the Clay comparison and stand on his own
Nadia - Great stage presense but not the best vocals for me
Bo - I'm just not a scream into the mic rock fan
Anwar - Beautiful vocals but needs to come out of his shell
Scott - Great voice
Nikko- Just not into his songs
Constatine - This guy gives me the creeps

Kaykohl, do you mean you like Contantines voice now and did not before? I have not listened to this yet.

Kaykohl, thanks for that link! I wish everyone would go back and listen to those mp3s. Just listening without seeing them gives you a whole new perspective and might even change your mind about a few of them.

Fruitbat, I was neither here or there on Contantine before Tuesday. Carrie was and still remains one of my favorites. After the show on Tuesday I wanted to find out more about Contantine because of all the controversy over at the AI message board. Someone else had posted the sites I listed in my previous post. After listening to the MP3's you can really hear the Boston Conservatory training in his voice and the difference of control ability of the other contestants.

I was in the kitchen last night and DH was watching Tuesdays show on TVO. When it got to Vonzell I was like damn she is good! She sounded good when I watched it live but when I heard it from another room it was amazing. Also I could tell how bad some of them were that I thought had sounded pretty good the previous night.

Carrie - certainly has the "it" factor along with a fantastic voice. The winner in my mind either way.

Anwar - my favorite all-around good guy. Doesn't have the full "it" factor, but as Maris pointed out earlier, could be the next Raffi or a new Sesame Street neighbor.

Nikko - Very strong vocals however he lacks something to me and I can't quite put my finger on it. He just doesn't connect with me, however, I'll always remember him because I am (was) a big fan of his dad in baseball.

Scott - I'm pulling for him to succeed in the biz but he truly needs to bump up his appeal and personality...anything to make himself shine. He does have a great singing voice though!

Bo - I like rockers! I like Bo. I see him as 2nd winner up if the teenie boppers don't burn up the phone lines for Constantine.

Constantine - I like rockers! I like Constantine. He's got charisma plus and knows it. Very self assured, polished. He'll go places. I'd like to see him and his band do Zepplin's Stairway to Heaven.

Nadia - a winner regardless! A natural beauty with outstanding vocals. I'm at a loss as to why she's been in the bottom 3 these past two shows. I think it's time for me to start picking up the damn phone like the teenie boppers....LOL!

Anthony - doesn't have the "it" factor. Nice guy and I wish him well in the biz.

Vonzell - what a cutie pie! I'll be pulling for her to succeed in the biz as well. She looks like a print model to me. I loved the night when she was wearing the white cowboy hat and boots!!

Jessica - she left the show way too early. Great range in her vocals, however, to me she didn't have the "it" factor. I certainly wish her well.

Here is another link that is fantastic. I found it at the link that Kaykohl posted. It has videos and mp3s of every performance back to their auditions. It's an awesome site.

1. Bo - He is a great talent and sexy too.
2. Carrie- Beautiful voice and looks great on camera.
3. Vonzell- Love her personality and that pretty smile.
4.Scott- kinda feel sorry for him after put downs from his father, great singer.
5.Anthony- Great voice but there is something missing.
6.Constantine- seems nice but doesn't do anything for me.
7.Nikko- just doesn't grab me,
8.Nadia- Don't like her style atall, probably would never buy her cd.
9.Anwar-just gets on my nerves, something about him irks me.

1. Constantine. Not sure how that happened, but I now like him the best.
2. Nadia
3. Vonzell
4. Carrie
5. Bo
6. Scott - though I agree his personality is slightly worse than Eminem's
7. Anthony
8. Anwar
9. Nikko

Actually I think this is a wonderful group and there is no one that I dislike, just varying degrees of like and it does change week to week. However Constantine is the person I am rooting for now to win.

1. Nadia - who cares if she's not the best singer - the girl has style and always is entertaining to watch.
2. Bo - he just has something (great voice, sex appeal?)(hey, I'm a 70s girl - we like our rockers HOT HOT HOT), although I wonder what the point of a "rock" singer is without a band behind him. Usually don't see a rock guy alone - he is the front man for the whole band. Will they "build" a band behind him if he wins?
3. Carrie - love the voice, think she's beautiful - but is there life behind those eyes? She looks terrified when she sings, even when she's smiling.
4. Anwar - would like to hear him break out into a really great song although I fear he never will. He's really good to look at though.
(and past here I don't really care)
5. Constantine - I really don't mind watching him, although he does overdo the "cutesy" expressions.
6. Vonzell - Mugs too much for the camera but has a good voice and looks good.
7. Nikko - dude, keep your hands off your crotch.
8. Scott - least likely to want to meet in a dark alley.
9. Antony - no way he's ANYTHING like Clay.

I made a folder for each of the 9 contestants that are left and I downloaded all of the mp3s for each of them. I listened to each folder just like I was listening to a CD of their songs and I asked myself if I would really buy their CD.

My list of favorites has been almost totally rearranged. It's amazing how my mind has changed on some of these people.

1. Scott - I absolutely love his voice. I could listen to his folder over and over and I would buy his CD with no hesitation.

2. Vonzell - I think of all the women she has the most distinct voice with the best range. She has been so under-rated.

3. Nikko - This totally surprises the hell out of me! I never thought I would place Nikko this high, but I even enjoyed hearing his freaking 'Georgia on My Mind' and I thought I
hated it when I saw him perform it.

4. Anthony - I don't understand why I haven't heard how good he was singing. He really is doing a good job.

5. Nadia - Nadia is not consistent. About 80% of her songs were awesome, but on that other 20% someone handed her a straw.

6. Bo - On performance alone Bo would rate much higher, but after listening to his songs one after another, I realized I would never buy a CD of this quality.

7. Carrie - I really thought that she sang better than this and would have rated her higher yesterday. After listening to her folder I realized that I was over-rating her. She goes off-key, mumbles words and yells more than I ever realized. I like country music, but I wouldn't buy her CD.

8. Anwar - The few notes he gets right in each song just isn't enough. It really surprised me just how agonizing it was to listen to his whole folder.

9. Constantine - I ain't gonna lie to you, I did not listen to his whole folder. After 3 songs I thought, 'What is the point?' I can't believe that anyone would seriously spend money on any CD he would make.

1. NIKKO - R&B fan here, so I'd buy his CD if well produced. Plus, I like his style.
2. SCOTT - He has a good soulful voice.
3. BO - I don't listen to today's rock, but this man has a great voice and I respect his showmanship.
4. NADIA - She's mesmerizing and another performer with great showmanship.
5. VONZELL - Like many have said here already, she's turning up the heat. She'll probably move up on my list.
6. ANWAR - Just like the judges said, he sounds better when he sings using his "upper register." Then, I wonder why wouldn't he just sing songs in his upper register all the time?!
7. CARRIE - Good voice, but I rarely listen to country.
8. CONSTANTINE - He runs hot and cold for me (mostly cold).
9. ANTHONY - Forgettable.

1. Nadia-love her style(I think I'm the only one who liked the mohawk), attitude, voice, and stage presense.

2. Bo-Very good singer and performer.

3. Nikko- He's good. I'm surprised at how high he is on my list.

4. Anwar- I like him, he has just dissapointed me recently.

5. Vonzell- I like her too, but I just never remember her.

6. Carrie- She's good, but she is just so bland IMO.

7. Constantine- I can't stand him. He's entertaining though, in a trainwreck kind of way.

8. Scott/Anthony- Interchangable...I hope they are the next two to leave, even though it'll probably be Nadia (:-()

1. Nadia- She has great stage presence and when she is on,she cannot be beat.

2. Bo- What's not to like? He needs a makeover,but he can sing. His personality is great too.

3. Vonzelle- I was not impressed with her in the beginning,but she has become a strong contender.

4. Anwar- He doesn't have the strongest voice,but his smile and personality are winning.

5. Nikko- He's well dressed.

6. Scott- I like him. He has his on moments,and he has his off ones too.

7. Carrie- She just isn't the type style I enjoy.

8. Constantine- He annoys the crap outta me. Everytime he throws those eyes at the camera I wanna run away screaming.

9. Anthony- Who?
