Adam Lambert’s been trying hard to knock it off the ballpark, but all of his songs so far have been misses, some were almost. But in this current music industry, almost isn’t good enough unless you reach a secret pact with local radio stations to give your song regular...

It’s good for music that the music reality show The Voice was unleashed in a decade full of American Idol nonsense, barring Adam Lambert and David Cook. Javier Colon’s voice don’t match his looks. This is one of the 4 decent songs off his debut album. DOWNLOAD Javier Colon...

The verses once again arguably confirms Kelly Clarkson as one of the artists to have successfully moved forward after American Idol. I think the chorus can be better, can be bigger, can be brasher to showcase Clarkson’s vocals. Kelly Clarkson’s sounds a little like Pink here, but...

She was booted out from American Idol for being too one-dimensional. The irony of her releasing a fast number instead of an expected slow tune. Kudos to her, but I’m disappointed that she didn’t take the bull by the horns to be in the top 3. Despite that, Americans would’ve...

Dull. Shouting without any direction. I know Kelly Clarkson can sing and probably one of the ONLY handful from the American Idol franchise who can. However, she’s a letdown with this track. Boring. DOWNLOAD Kelly Clarkson – Let Me Down Mp3...

So I’ve heard David Cook’s new album, and I’m not really impressed by his effort. Here is a dude whom I thought was the best singer to arise from American Idol, until Adam Lambert changed my view. Overall, I think the album’s a little better than his debut, but still...

It’s a ear-pleaser for sure. Just Medina, the piano and a little bit of orchestra – the focus is more on his vocals and the melody, which I think is excellent. These days, music like these are hard to come by, slow, stripped and catchy. Apparently Chris Medina was a contestant on...

James Durbin surely is a better singer LIVE rather than behind a mic in a studio. Something’s just isn’t right especially with “Will You Love Me Tomorrow?” rendition. However, this studio version fares a lot better than I expected it to. I hope James Durbin releases a...

Gaga sounds so average, which is really unlike her. I saw her mentoring the American Idol contestants recently and I must admit I am stunned by her level of advice – she knows what she’s talking about! However, I think she should take her own advise with this song because...

I was in awe of the live performance of this track and the studio version felt short of recreating that magic. It sounds like it’s a rushed recording and I think Durbin needs to get back into the studio to re-record it and bring that live magic he delivered during Idol performance....

David Cook, one of my favorite American Idol singers, probably second to only Adam Lambert. However, neither have done really well with their selections. Ryan Tedder, the lead singer of One Republic joins David Cook this time to write this song, “The Last Goodbye”. It’s not...

Apparently this dude was one of the performers on Idol 2006 in Sweden, yup a Swedish version of American Idol. I didn’t bother too much to delve into his musical history but I guess it’s obvious why he chose English as the medium instead. The album is too dancey poppy hooheey for...
