I love that Taylor Hicks won American Idol. I'd loved him from the beginning.
I was torn between him and Paris, as far as I who I wanted to see go all the way. I must say, that I did not think that America would pick Taylor. I am pleasantly impressed, and can not wait to see what he brings.
Also, I love James Blunt, "Goodbye My Lover." I saw him sing that song on Oprah, and I swear every female in the audience needed new undies. I love EXPRESSIVE singing. Original Lyrics. Crafty, emotional. Fantastic. No, I don't wanna jump him. (To borrow an old and beloved phrase from Prism) I want to chase him with a stick of butter. Two cookies to anyone who can remember who Prism said she wanted to chase with a stick of butter.
I can say that 90% of the time, the BELTING songstresses, and overdone R&B male whoah-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh where they change the note ten times in one syllable is old, and I'm waiting for the evolution. Boyz II Men are the best in that area, and no one can do it like them.
I like Velvet Revolver... waiting for them to bring more.
Tonight, I have ventured into the world of writing again. It seems to be finally coming out. I've been thinking about a story for about 3 years, that I couldn't decide if it was a screenplay or a book. It seems to be a book. I was at work the other night and I found the characters interacting in my mind.... and here we go again.
Looking forward to reading your stuff!!!
