best singer from ai

Kind of an unfair question considering we are on a Taylor Hicks website but I believe in being honest so these are my thoughts. Whenever I listen to any singer I basically listen to the tone of the voice. Another plus is when they sing are they doing it with real passion. Do they feel the music and if so do I believe them so here are my answers.

1. Taylor Hicks - Definitely the first person who made me feel the real passion of any song not to mention he is a wonderful entertainer who keeps me interested in watching each and every time. Totally unique in my book!

2. Tie between Melinda Doolittle and Lakisha Jones - talk about feeling the music and always made me believe they believed in what they were singing.

3. Clay Aiken - What is interesting about him for me is I only saw him perform once on American Idol and that is when he sang "Unchained Melody" because frankly I was not into the show the first two seasons. However once he started singing I immediately became addicted and feel he could sing anything and I would love it.

4. Bo Bice - Totally entertaining to watch and I was so impressed when he did his acapella rendition of "In A Dream". Anyone who can sing without music and make me believe them is tops in my book.

Runners-up would include Elliott Yamin, Ace Young, Mandisa, Paris Bennett from Season 5 because each demonstrated real passion on different songs they performed and I love the tone of their voices. As for Daughtry I think only 4 performances of his made me feel his passion for the music while he was on the show.

I am sure many people think either Kelly Clarkson or Carrie Underwood should be the real winners on this topic however while I consider both very good singers I have not always felt the passion when they sing.

While I have enjoyed many others the ones mentioned above stand out the most for me.

i was hoping someone here would speak out for Taylor on the yahoo answers

Actually mae, I did read the comments over there and someone did mention Taylor.

mae, I posted in this and seen your post as well, I like you said that I think the best to ever come out of AI is Taylor with Kelly a close 2nd,
There is not a runaway with any of them though so that helps...
