I just got home from school and I'm watching the Canadian Idol finale... Why? I cannot answer that because I don't have an answer. But I turned it on, and I've watched a few of them off and on and not one of these "singers" has impressed me in the least. With the first three of these Canadian Idol shows, I've watched the final 8 or so, just like one episode, and it was always easy to see who would win because only one of them was remotely good (Ryan Malcolm knows how to use his voice and Melissa O'Neil is actually a good singer) but watching this one they all just sucked... Just sucked. And I'd watch and see these horrible, toneless, emotionless performances, and then these judges would say they were good... not just good, but often great.
Anyways... I'm watching this finale and this guy on here just sucked... absolutely sucked. His tone was very boring and his range wasn't very impressive and the song itself kind of sucked. And then the judges said he was amazing? Amazing? Chills down their spines amazing? He was horrible... and then the girl sang and I actually thought she was good. She had a nice tone, good presence, could emote and had a good range... good for her... and then the judges said she wasn't that good.
I don't know why this hit me so hard, but it just did. I really hate this show... American Idol, most people that make it through to the top few are always good, but Canadian Idol is always filled with like one good person and a bunch of karaoke performers and they get treated as if they're great... I don't know. I just miss artistry. Some people have talent, and some people work hard... and some people just suck. Thanks.
