I call it a billy goat vibrato. <BR/>From a pedagogical standpoint (I'm a trained classical singer) McPhee does have a very good and consistent technique, but she's all technique and no real charm. She's TOO trained - she comes off as an automaton - very robotic and seriously lacking warmth and depth. Good point about the idiocy of pop stars, but she's not at all engaging when she speaks which is a fatal flaw - a charismatic performer is always "on" and not just smiling and looking pretty. Like I said, she bears this unfortunate commonality with Victoria "Posh" Beckham.phlegmfatalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08636803080525003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-1147365263253834332006-05-11T11:34:00.000-05:002006-05-11T11:34:00.000-05:00Chris sucked.

Surrounded by a live band, he'd be great since in my opinion, he was the BEST performer out of all the finalists. Vocally, he's not much.<BR/><BR/>McPhee has the chops. I've read what the weekly guests and other vocal experts have said about her after working with her in person. She's got a great voice, and she can move. How many pop stars are even halfway intelligent anyway???<BR/><BR/>(Oops I did it again).Jay Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11571082583740830927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-1147317563838909252006-05-10T22:19:00.000-05:002006-05-10T22:19:00.000-05:00og - top two should definitely be Taylor and Elli...og - top two should definitely be Taylor and Elliott, and if they are, I'll actually believe America got it right for once.<BR/><BR/>turboslut - golly - she seems like a vacuous dullard hosebag, does Posh. So, was she high? Was she eating up the attention? Did you fantasize about slapping her around a bit? I think I would, if I were on a plane with her. <BR/><BR/>tickersoid - McPhee is annoying beyond measure - she's a Stepford singer - shallow and not clever at all. Boring. Posh is as dull as dishwater, if you ask me, and I think it's scary that you can read the serial numbers on her breast implants because the skin is stretched so tight across them. Yuck. Not sexy at all. Not posh, either.<BR/><BR/>leazwell - Yeah, Elliot was fantastic, especially when he sang "Trouble". I thought, hmm, maybe he CAN be evil. Sweet!<BR/><BR/>fuzzbox - I'm astonished. Apparently they both were, too.

I met her on a flight from New York and she was every bit as dippy as you'd expect. It didn't help matters that as we left the plane the papparazzi were waiting for her, and as we were right behind her, we were hounded too. From that moment on I knew I could never handle being famous.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116836434516282217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-1147292577335692892006-05-10T15:22:00.000-05:002006-05-10T15:22:00.000-05:00She's a Stepford, no doubt about it.You know, I th...She's a Stepford, no doubt about it.<BR/><BR/>You know, I thought Elliot was going to go before her, but after his performances last night, I'm not so sure anymore.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10402527138728932357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-1147288862156270432006-05-10T14:21:00.000-05:002006-05-10T14:21:00.000-05:00smart man.smart man.phlegmfatalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08636803080525003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-1147280398664253252006-05-10T11:59:00.000-05:002006-05-10T11:59:00.000-05:00Sorry, but I'd rather get a root canal.;)Sorry, but I'd rather get a root canal.<BR/><BR/>;)Thomas J Wolfendenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15222969433922908517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-1147272114307796682006-05-10T09:41:00.000-05:002006-05-10T09:41:00.000-05:00ian - in a perfect world, yes. :) It will be fun...ian - in a perfect world, yes. :) It will be fun to see how it all pans out.
