Very few big name entertainers get to the top on voice only...Paul Robeson did, Elvis has a wonderful voice but there was a lot more there, Elton John can sing but his personality made him, same with the Beatles, Stones, G&R...

Blech, I can't stand Taylor Hicks. His so-called "personality" reminded me of many nights I've spent in bars watching music. He's the kind of guy who has this smarmy stage presence for the opening band that you just wish would shut up and stop being a corny karoake-bar type singer and get offstage so you could see the band you came to see.

Just my two cents. Worst Idol yet, if trumping Ruben were even possible.

Taylor was the best Idol had to offer last year. McPhee sucks more than Antonella.

That's debatable from what I've seen...would you have said that if you didn't see her photos.
