April 9, 200718 yr Kelly Clarkson is my fav winner - followed closely by Carrie Underwood Katherine McPhee is my fav runner-up
April 9, 200718 yr What a great poll :lol: Favourite Winners 1. Carrie - Her music is much more my style, and her debut album is by far the best one any idol allum has brought out [only Daughtry can match it in terms of debut album performance and quality] 2. Kelly - Breakaway is a classic album, and shes done amazingly well, will be extremely interesting to see where she goes with her next album. 3. Fantasia - This is where it all goes down hill, the other 3 winners, in my opinion, deserved to be the runner up in the finale, shes done well in her format, but hasn't exactly lit the charts up. 4. Ruben - He got 4th out of default 5. Taylor - Novelty act that shouldn't have placed any higher than 6th to be hoesnt, and his album performance has proved this, first winner not to cross 1m in sales. Favourite Runner Ups 1. Diana DeGarmo - Despite not finding much success with her debut album, I think its a fantastic debut with potentially some huge songs [Till You Want Me being that very song]. She was fantastic for a 16 year old, and deserved to win over Fantasia, and what is even more unfair was that AI put the situation so that Fantasia had to win, by making stupid last minure arrangement changes, and accidental technical faults. 2 Katharine McPhee - Possibly the most marketable person to come from idol for the UK's music scene. Her album is good, with some great songs [Over It, Love Story and Ordinary World], with some other not so great ones [Open Toes - good at first, but irriating soon after, Not Ur Girl and Dangerous]. But still shes potentially very good, and deserved after her Somewhere Over The Rainbow performance to win. 3. Clay Aiken - Solid and consistent on the show, despite not showing much signs of musical maturity afterwards. The American Idol answer to Westlife. 4. Bo Bice - Clay narrowly beat him, I was quite biased towards him whilst on the show, I saw him as the only threat to Carrie winning whilst on the show, but after the show he did okay, but was unfortunately forced into a more pop/top40 route that did not suit his more 80's rock roots. 5. Justin Guarini - What can we say, they never made use of him after the show, apart from in the awful Justin to Kelly, and if he had been treated as a proper runner up much like the other 4 runner ups were, then we may have seen some more success, but alas it was not meant to be. Overall; Carrie - No-one can match her on debut album success, apart form Daughtry who are looking increasingly to outsell Kelly on debut album sales. Her singles are huge hits and she is breaking records, both mainstream and country across the USA.
April 9, 200718 yr Kelly of course, but she's the only one famous worldwide so that's not big competition for her lol My fav Idol winner ever is Myriam though : http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/searc...-i-m-outta-love I'm outta looooove, set me freeeee :wub:
