I was so excited last night when Clay's phone line was busy, busy, busy. I couldn't even get my early votes in as usual! I think I only got 1 in the first hour and then I was able to get through about 10-20% of the time during the second hour. I probably got 20-30 votes in for Clay.

You can slap my hand because I did call Ruben's line to see if I could get through. I called 2 times in a row and got through both times. Hmmm... does that mean he doesn't have as many fans in the mid west? I'm surprised to hear his line was busy for 2 hours as well. (I promise I won't do it again! LOL!)

Loved the article -- Zaprudering -- love that!

Tabby, I promise I won't call Ruben's line again! And I continued calling for Clay during the second hour to quadruple cancel them out. :)

"Say, say now Claymates, come out and play with me, and bring your CD's three, climb up my Buttercup tree..."

Does anyone know of a Clay fansite that posts mp3 of his performances? I found one that has the video clips, but I'd like to find audio only.

Brenda, I don't download mp3s because I can't hear music well enough played on my computer and I don't have a CD burner, but doing a search brought up these two sites. Maybe worth a look?

Hi Claymates!

I've been offline a while and I've been having a blast catching up on your posts. You're a great bunch!

As for Clay, oh my, that guy is dangerous for my health. Last night (well, frankly every night) when he performed, I was so mesmerized that I didn't even realize I was holding my breath and almost passed out. NO ONE (since I was in love with Paul McCartney in his Beatle days) has ever made my heart pound like Clay does; no one has ever made my arm hairs salute. He is magical.

His first song last night was beyond amazing. The man totally masters each exquisite note. He is in command and the music obeys. IMHO, he's a gift to us all.

When he sang Grease with such a sense of fun, Elvis the Pelvis hips and all, he not only took a risk (especially because he feels uncomfortable dancing--but he shouldn't, he was great!) but he performed with a great sense of humor and fun. Simon really needs corrective surgery for his humorless demeanor. At least the other three judges recognized a quality performance! (Hey Simon: Bah humbug! Pffft!)

Hermi, I know you have "dibs" on this boy, and I will not intrude. BUT...I'm old enough to be his mom, so since I'm not adopted at the Clubhouse, may I volunteer to be your mother-in-law when you two get hitched? My only request: every Mother's Day and birthday, the only gift I want is for son-in-law Clay to sing to me. (100 songs will be fine, hip thrusts included as a perk.) Okay?

I voted many times for him last night and was a bit dismayed because I had no trouble getting through. I received a busy signal only twice. Eek! But, how can he not be safe? The boy shines. Gleams. Glistens. Rules.

GO CLAY. You're already a star. Our true North. Whew, gotta go get a brown bag for hyperventilation purposes...

Brenda, there are peer-to-peer music sites that have AI audio MP3's. I use KaZaa. You can go to KaZaa.com and download the software. However, if you do use it, you have spyware as part of the package. It hasn't seemed to mess up my 'puter yet and have been using if for about two years.

I have almost all of the auditions and performances of the AI contestants (that I like, didn't bother with Julia's stuff and downloaded only one Carmen song); even a duet with Frenchie and Kim L. However, the latest songs for Clay are from last week - Solitaire, etc. It takes about 4-5 days for whomever is technical enough to record and digitize the songs to get them to this site. I burned a CD two weeks ago for my AI watcher friends, it had 55 tracks including the auditions up to two weeks ago --these songs are short. Hope this info helps you.
