All kidding aside, B... neither one of these singers is really THAT great. I'm just not impressed. To be certain, Jordin has more natural talent, but WOW. I hope Jordin wins, because if Blake wins, AI can kiss my one hour of viewing a season goodbye.

She's incredible for a 17 year old.

I guess I was spoiled in high school... there were singers in my choral ensemble that were just amazing. Anywho, with that said, I definitely like her chances better and think she's got what it takes to win.

Singing in a choir and performing on national television are two completely different things.

Like I said, I was spoiled. Joey Fatone and Luis Fonsi were both in my ensemble. My high school had a magnet program for talented singers and actors/actresses.

Holy crap. You just invoked a member of N*SYNC to justify how good singers you went to high school with were?

Surely you could do better, or have just not brought it up at all. I'm not really sure that *vocally* a Joey Fatone card trumps a Jordin Sparks card...actually, I'm sure it doesn't.

Brian, with God as my witness, Joey Fatone has a phenomenal voice. It sucks that he's going to be forever remembered as an N'Sync 'backup boy' as he is really amazing.

Jordin is phenomenal. I would give you a pass for that if you had written it during week four, but she has grown so much and demonstrated an incredible talent.

I think much of it comes from what you like listening to. You make like more country voices, so Carrie Underwood might fit you better. I like big pop voices (for this style of music) and Jordin fits the bill with a huge, yet nuanced, powerhouse voice.

I like it all, baby cakes. You should know that.
