Nonsuch gain another 4 points while FSR Rontvia and JRK-off continue to move up. Angelicland's 12 mvoes them into the top 10 as well. ;o Dalisska and BaNG are the only two countries still below 10 points.

(I found one of my mistakes! I gave Ojnoj an extra point here, oops! Fixed.)

Nonsuch entry Lonely (Are You Coming Home?) was written by top US songwriter and future 4th American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi along with sometimes P!nk, Aerosmith, Sheryl Crow co-songwriter Marti Frederiksen back in 2006.

 

In the summer of 2008 when this song by former 2005 Reality Talent star Suzie McNeil (who finished 4th (the final female left in) Rock Stars: INXS to find a new lead singer for the legendary Aussie band) was #2 in Canada behind Madonna's 4 Minutes despite it being the 5th and final single and biggest hit from her 2007 album Broken and Beautiful, Kara DioGuardi revealed the story behind the song:

 

In March 2007 I got a call from Clive Davis (Head of Sony-BMG) who was not happy with the material that Kelly Clarkson had come up for what was going to become her My December album, as he did not feel their were any strong singles material on it (in the vein of Since U Been Gone; Because Of You or Behind Those Hazel Eyes), so he asked if I had any suitable songs. So I offered him this song which Suzie had recorded vocals as a demo to Clive and he loved it and said that's the lead single.

 

Anyway I got a call back two/three weeks later to hear that Kelly had refused point blank to record any songs on the album that she had not written. So she passed on the song which I thought was madness. Still her album My December sold less than a fifth than her predecessor Breakaway, and after the first single (Never Again) none of the tracks made the Top 100 in contrast to her last album, so I guess she has learnt a lesson.

 

Do you think Kelly Clarkson did the right thing rejecting this song?

ZOMFG!!!

 

Wow thanks so so so so so much to Frahliso - Big love to Junkie XL - really you are the best

oh, Kelly Clarkson...I think she could have had a massive hit with Lonely, radio would have loved it

 

Never Again was such an awful comeback, up there with Girls and I Wanna Have Your Babies :lol:

 

Ashton doing much better than I expected, would love them to win for once :o

Kopecka looking very very unlikely to finish top ten...what is the world coming too :o
Kelly definatly made a stupid decision there i think. Lonely would have been brilliant for her.
You people are too quiet. >_> SAY SOMETHING.

 

:lol: I am, but nobody else is :P

WOW! But as soon as you gave that hint earlier I had Kelly in mind! :lol:

 

She was right in the sense that she didn't write it, which you can't blame her for. But the song is amazing and it actually would and could have done wonders for her! :o

That was some interesting reading there - silly kelly, teaches her for getting too cocky lol

 

@ Kopecka's lack of progress I really don't see the appeal of the song at all - really nothign special imho
