Idol Chatter 2010

So here’s a question…is anyone really paying attention this season?  I, for one, am pretty uninspired.  Not that there aren’t some talented singers/musicians in this year’s group, but none that even make me give a second thought to picking up the phone.

Aaron and Katie – cute kids, but too young to hold out to the very end against their more experienced elders.

Siobahn (sp?) – I dunno, Adam Lambert proved last year that the freaky factor doesn’t have to keep you from making it to the end. But eventually the screaming has to lose its appeal…right?

Tim – What the heck? That’s all I’m sayin’.

Andrew – I just don’t get this one.  I was as amazed as everyone else during Hollywood week, when he did “Straight Up.”  But he’s been a complete waste of space ever since.  And those glasses…

Michael – Too MUCH drama, I couldn’t agree with Simon more.  Saved this week but I don’t expect him to be one of the top two.

Lee – I enjoy his music and might expect to see him in the top three, but he seems to lack some of the personality that is needed to win this competition.

Casey & Crystal – I think these are our top two.  Both are good musicians, Casey perhaps even excellent with the guitar.  Crystal seems to be the natural winner based on her consistent way of making songs her own. Casey’s not quite as good with this, but he makes up for it with his good ol’ boy charm and flowing locks.

What do YOU think?  Am I totally nuts? Or are you too bored with the 9th season to think about it?
