top 2

who is your top 2 favorite contestants??

here mine





and

Taylor has and always will be my top favorite from all seasons. He just has the extra something that is refreshing and unique.


Now the hard part of your question. I actually have several who share the second spot of my favorites. They are:

Bo Bice
Clay Aiken
Elliott Yamin
Ace Young
Melinda Doolittle
Lakisha Jones

Coming in as runner-ups for me:

David Hernandez
David Cook
David Archuleta
Michael Johns
Carly Smithson
Diana DeGarmo
Chris Sligh
Phil Stacey
Mandisa


I like others but do own music from some of the above mentioned people and what I do not have I plan to get for sure. One thing American Idol has done for sure is introduce us to some fantastic singers.

Taaylor and Ace, definately. I didn't watch other seasons - I can't say I'm a fan through Idol.

One of many reasons to love this man

Taylor is the ONLY american idol I adore....

Now, no comparison to ANYONE- my ultimate favorite singer non IDOL is without a doubt-

:kisses: My top favorite singer that was not on AI has and always will be Elvis Presley. I have a lot of memorabilia of his not to mention dolls, cups, etc., etc. etc. My top favorite girl of all time has always been Cher although I do like and own music of others. However, I own all of Cher's music even as far back as when she first started with Sonny.

What can I say I just love music and so many artists have given me such pleasure listening to them.

I don't know your favorite Elvis song so here is mine. Elvis Presley is my 2nd all time favorite singer. My first is Taylor Hicks.

i got you babe

cher - if i can turn back time

here is my favorite Elton John song

Josiah Leming as been sign to a major recording contract, i believe he wa the first of his season to do so, and his cd is due out mid-October. I hope that everyone one here will support this very talented young man and buy his music and go to his concerts if given a chance. If you would like to here more of his music go to

First of all I LOVE CHER!!! She is not only a great singer/actor. She is also one helva gal. L:ove her additude!

Oh and Mae- I Guess thats why they call it the blues-
I sing that in kareokee :)

I love Cher also, but I am a ginormous Cyndi Lauper fanatic - I just picked up her new album yesterday. And my two favourite piano men - beyond Brian and Loren, naturally - are Elton and Billy Joel.

Funny how we all seem to have simular tastes in music huh?

:) Hey Jodi, I did not know you liked Cher. My daughter took me to see her Farewell concert for my birthday and I have to say she puts on one heck of a show. It was fabulous. Plus you are so right, she has a great sense of humor and I also have liked how she tells it like it is without all the bull that so many celebritites give out.

Hey Mae, it is interesting that you put that video on this site. Yesterday I re-watched part of Season 6 when Jordin won and on the Idol Gives Back show, I found it amazing they were able to put Elvis and Celine Dion on stage together to sing his song "If I Can Dream". Plus when Elliott Yamin sang it on season 5 I thought he was great doing it. This song is one of my favorites of Elvis but my top favorite of all time is "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You". Of course I love most of Elvis's songs and could listen to them all day and never get bored. He was indeed a force in the music industry.

Taylor of course is right up there with my top favorite because he also brings such a unique and exciting take to music. Gee, I simply adore these two guys and luckily I have been able to see both in person.

the closest some of us will ever come seeing Elvis perform live

i wish they would do that with Taylor. that would be awesome Elvis and Taylor performing together.

My favorite AI performaers of course are Taylor and David H, but off of AI I love CHER always have, seen her farewell tour a few years ago and it was fantastic. Loved her performing.. The earliest performer I've liked is of course Elvis but never got to see him live, but I'm old so I liked a lot of guys that were popular when I was growing up..

Mae that would be down right freaky! Id love to see it... I could only imagine how much they would move alike

i don't know what that means. is that good or bad??

Mae, I think Jodi means Elvis and Taylor on the same stage, performing together, NOW that would be a sight wouldnt' it??

i want to post this here however youtube not going to let me so here is the link. enjoy Billy Joel - Piano Man
