[elpadrino1995]

[pickerington11]

can he try again? i thought if you make it to 36. all or nothing. He shouldn't have needed any help. but how cool his friends are, to do it anyway. How did this happen? Best vocalist to date!

[gally042]

yes!! he can go on the show again since he didnt make the final 13 or whatever

[MsDolo08]

is he even gonna try AI again???

[gally042]

nah he has all the exposure he needed now

[response007]

I CAN'T WAIT for him to become a HUGE international STAR!!! He'll be the Frank Sinatra of the 21st Century!!

[ethi0chick]

[gally042]

i don't think i saw it? where was it at?

[bellacrazy2008]

ummm im not sure

[ethi0chick]

no problem. he is blessed and American idol is just a mess, nothing ever goes as it kinda should..

God Bless :)

[Scsibut]

he should have made it....i cant believe he didnt make the cut.

[brownstony]

I can't BELIEVE he didn't make it into the top 13. But maybe he was too polished, too professional, too good for the show.

[gally042]

i agree :)

[sunnyside5230]

Ricky is a fantastic singer! If you know him, can you tell him to go for a recording contract! He could do it! I'd buy him! he's hottttt!

[gally042]

haha hes already working on record deals, he will get one eventually and ill keep you all updated, dont worry lol

[response007]

I believe that Ricky Braddy will be the new Frank Sinatra for the 21st Century...not as good-looking...but definitely with a better voice.

[sunnyside5230]

Frank Sinatra cute????? Ricky is MUCH better looking!

[peninfirina]

Ricky is not better looking, He is EXTREMELY BETTER LOOKING!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU RICKY!!!!!!!!!

[seceret765]

i love ricky

[gally042]

me toooo

[GeorgiaIsOnMyMind]

I hope people will speak out against American Idol...make videos, do blogs...simply we must make our voices heard. What happened to Arianna Afsar, Von Smith and ricky brady was simply an INJUSTICE. These three gifted individuals were butchered just so Simon Cowell could continue the slumdog millionaire mass hypnosis on its own show in order to get ratings. Notice how they attached the word 'dog' to anoop's name and extolled his painful performance last thursday.They put him right at the end too!

[response007]

I TRULY believe that in the years to come Mr. Ricky Braddy will be WAY MORE POPULAR than any of the other contestants for this season's broadcast of 'American Idol'!!! Instead of saying Ricky who? as they are now in five, ten, and more years they'll be saying Danny who? Anoop who? etc. All of them will be all but forgotten...and Ricky will have the LAST LAUGH!!!! Thumbing his nose at AI.

[GeorgiaIsOnMyMind]

American idol is only trying to ride the slumdog millionaire mass hyposis which is why flawless singers like Brady, Smith and Afsar were removed and the indian guy who's amateurish performance was pitchy in some places, flat in others and completely lacking in any vocal malisma had the red carpet rolled out for him and an unprecedented 13th spot was created for him. Simon also pre-prepped the other gudges to give out positive feedback to anoop. American Idol is obviously rigged. Speak out people

[response007]

Word.

[purrzee]

i'm thiking Daughtry or jenifer hudson Simon hated David cook too!

[purrzee]

Ricky I wsa completely mortified what Simon said to you1 you sounded great! I hope for great things for you. get a Better CoNTRACT!

[teritunes]

I never saw this video before the show , nor had I heard of Ricky til the show but the minute he sang, I knew I knew who I was voting for that night. I still can't believe he didn't make it through both shows. I sure hope he gets a contract somewhere because I will be first in line to buy it.

[GeorgiaIsOnMyMind]

American Idol is rigged

[muskinilukun]

My voting during the first week did not work. The wild card is judges choice, nothing I can do :-( So sorry Ricky

[response007]

To me he sounds like a smoother and better version of Survivor's 2nd lead-singer Jim(i) Jamison!!!! I'd love to hear his renditions of "The Search Is Over", "High On You", and other Survivor songs!!!

[an88u]

oh i forgot to mention, i don't know you or anything but i think you are very sweet for supporting your friend like that.

[gally042]

thank you very much, im upset he was eliminated, but big things are in store for him

[pfcernie]

Idol judges make some strange picks..I think enough people saw Ricky to really springboard his career ..man he can sing!!

[purrzee]

ya know if this is going to springboard his career AI is just a kiddy pool!

[gally042]

definately, thanks for the support

[an88u]

i love ricky. he has an amazing voice, he is beautiful and i really hope he makes it far. i am soo happy he was picked for the wild card and now i pray he makes to the top 12. now gallyo42 i was wondering how i can download ricky's song Love Me Like L. A. any suggestions?

[EmelinaChaCha]

Woot wildcard! Break a leg tomorrow night!

[GIDDIE27909]

Please remember to go to American Idol's website and vote daily and has many times as you can for Ricky!!! He is truly an amazing man with a gift from God.

[pfcernie]

Ricky's got another shot tonight as a wild card ...he should make it to the top 12 now!

[yaniamendes]

He made it!!!!!!! I am so, so, so happy. I knew he would. Thank goodness for the wildcard.

[GeorgiaIsOnMyMind]

riky braddy for wild card!

[RHODNIUS81]

He should be in the top 12. I don't understand why he did not get the majority of the votes. I agree that he should work on his attitude and personality. He needs star quality in order to win this competition.But if the competition was based on vocals alone, this guy will undoubtedly win....

[gally042]

thanks for supporting ricky, yeah he has amazing vocals and we are hoping he gets another chance here for the wildcard

[response007]

Out of the twenty-four singers heard so far on Idol this season...Ricky Braddy is my favorite and the best, imho.

[gally042]

yeah me too haha, thanks for supporting ricky

[tallrob11]

i love rickys voice!!! i want Ricky, Von, and Lil Rounds for top three...he has an incredible voice.

[Muscleg]

RICKY, RICKY RICKY!!! He has great vocals!

[sdws17]

He has to make the Wild Card slot, he was the best singer

[gally042]

i am not sure

[debsminnie]

Man, Ricky Braddy has the most amazing voice I have heard on American Idol. I would buy his CD right now! I am hoping for the Wild Card!! Amazing talent!

[Billydude9]

I was so blown away by him. I'm a fan already and can't believe he didn't make it through. Whats up with that. Am I crazy but something must be up for him to not get any press or anything. He was clearly the best of of them all.

[CHERRY0h]

i loved that guy .. what an amazing voice wish him all the best !

[execproducerdvd]

Ricky you blew me away! In my younger days, I was a friend of Karen & Richard Carpenter, and saw their shows most likely around 40 times back in the era of "The Carpenters. Ricky singing on Idol brought back many memories! What a spectacular rendition. esome! Ricky if you read this, please drop me an email! In addition Seth Jones your song "love me Like LA," is also just awesome! If you also catch this comment, please email me. What a terrific and talented voice.

[gally042]

Ricky may see the messages, but I will pass on the sentiments. Thanks

[lsz0719]

i was surprise that Ricky didnt make it to the top 12, thats just so unfair. he was by far the best contestant from group one. too bad i cant vote for him in China, but i really hope he can get a wild card cuz he deserves it for sure.

[THEWZY]

Ricky Braddy blew me away that night and I was totally shocked when he didn't make it.Although I'm sure he will go far because talent like that can't go unrecognized or kept down.

[mblockdc]

Thank you. Tell Ricky.. There are people out here that are hoping and praying for a wildcard. keep up the good work

[gally042]

we appreciate that and i will be sure to pass on the message

[mblockdc]

I"m SOOO MAD!!!! I really believe he sung the best that night. YES!!! even better then there beloved DANNY. I'm really debating on even watching because that was absolutely crazy. Danny and Ricky were the only two people that did really great performances, BUt Ricky was the only one that pulled a tear from my eye.

[gally042]

i totally agree, danny did perform pretty well, but ricky's song was challenging and he killed it, hands down he did the best, even simon couldnt find a thing to say about his voice, thats for the support and ricky appreciates it

[acoustickoz]

i wish i could have voted but i dont live in US... he should hav gone thru. it was kind of unfair because he didn't get featured AND yet they put him as one of the first performances so it would be harder to remember

[gally042]

it is alright, maybe their "plan" is working and they are going to bring him back wildcard and turn him into the start, lets just hope and see

[balloonboy277]

im soooo sorry that ricky didnt get thru... i voted by text and call..i kept trackand voted for him 22 times.

[gally042]

we appreciate the support, we are hoping for a wildcard

[Live4MyHappiness]

Its quite obvious that the AI producers have already anointed Danny Gokey the winner of season eight. Personally, Im OVER Danny Gokey who invokes his dead wife almost as much as Rudy Giuliani invokes 9/11 in every sentence. Its a pathetic attempt by Mr. Gokey, his supporters (note the flashing of the dead wifes picture last night), and the AI producers to court the sympathy vote.

Regardless of what happens on AI, Im looking forward to hearing & seeing much more from Ricky Braddy!

[gally042]

thanks for the support, we will keep you updated on ricky's career

[pinkmss]

I cannot sleep after watching him not make it through. He'll get a wild card. There's no way that America leaves his beautiful voice behind. I've been listening to his 'A Song for you' about 10 times. I have nothing to say but awesome.

[gally042]

thanks for the support! ricky is still alive, hopefully he gets the wildcard

[doogleandalix]

Ricky easily outsang everyone on that stage the other night ! It sucks that he was in Danny's group-the chosen one ,who is very good obviously ,but got way too much time on his backstory.

Ricky was screwed over because of zero face time - I doubt he will be a wildcard because so many other "favorites" will need a spot with this awful three group , one song system. Ricky got my votes- I really hope he gets another shot ! He deserves it- awesome voice !

[gally042]

we appreciate that support, it means a lot, thanks again

[muxammle]

ricky is great ! but they should'e selected jamar instead of tatiana or tatania whatever her name is !! she is so annoying man ! btw ricky is great !!!

[gally042]

Thanks a lot for supporting Ricky!

[EmelinaChaCha]

I'd never heard Ricky before last night. His voice was flawless. I teared up during the song, which I never do. I missed the show tonight, but logged on to find out who went through with him. I can't believe he wasn't chosen! I'm shocked. Please tell him to keep singing and putting songs out even if he doesn't get the wildcard. He's already got fans all over America.

[gally042]

Thanks so much for the support. I will definately pass that message on to Ricky! He is in awe of all the support everyone has given him!

[response007]

WILD-CARD!!!

[gally042]

yesssssur

[Tonsteroni]

Aww man I was soo Pissed when he got kicked tonight :( he was seriously the best one on there that night!! That shit is rigged, or America is stupid.. he obviously was flawless.. HE BETTER get the wildcard! or i'm gonna kill lol! GOOD LUCK RICKY!!! YOUR BOMB!!!!

[gally042]

yeah he is awesome, im in agreement

[Mollykat5054]

I voted for Ricky. I am so sorry he did not make it through. He is so very telanted too. I wish him the very best in the future!

[gally042]

thanks molly, we are just praying he gets a wildcard, we appreciate the support for Ricky!

[ytmisc2]

Before last night's show, I had a few favorite contestants. Ricky is now one of them. I hope he at least makes it to the top 10! Whatever happens, I hope he gets a record deal. I'll buy.

[gally042]

that's awesome, we are hoping for a wildcard now, keep rooting for ricky

[pfcernie]

Hey I voted for him last night before I even saw this video. I think he is good and I like country even if Simon has no idea what country is about!!

[gally042]

thats great, thanks for supporting Ricky

[mkwd]

He deserves the wildcard slot if he doesn't get voted in. It's good that Paula, Cara, and Randy liked it. I actually think Simon liked him too but didn't want to admit it.

[gally042]

definately

[iqkid1212]

wow ricky was amazing tonight. i think we need to see more of him.

[gally042]

definately, he rocked, he deserved to move on

[ayymkatee]

wooh!!! go ricky!!!!

my mom works with his mom and he's the only reason why we're watchin AI this season!!!!

[gally042]

thats cool, thanks for supporting ricky!

[greg2230]

[gally042]

yes i believe it is, it has been used in past seasons i know that

[codyandcolby]

gally042, i am glad to see all the positive reactions to you post. keep it up the folks here in his home town are doing all we can. Go Ricky AI08 your the man

[gally042]

[gally042]

[iqkid1212]

i wish i could help ricky out, but i don't live in the states. he sounds like he has an amazing voice from that song "love me like LA". too bad we didn't see him during hollywood week.

[gally042]

thats alright i am going to have a video on how people outside the us can vote tomorrow

[thebraddybunch]

Hey Aaron! Thanks so much for all the support from you and all of your subscribers! You guys are incredible... seriously! "WE LOVE GALLY042 LIKE L.A."

[gally042]

No problem! We all love Ricky like L.A.!!

[response007]

Ditto!!!

[SteveFrancisWu]

i think all your subscribers should do you this favour and I think they will vote for your friend. You're a good person. lol

[gally042]

thanks a lot steve, please tell your friends and family and call in as many times as you can to vote for ricky

[SweatSmooth]

It seems today general creativity has no place in the retail music world, but I hear something original when he says "I wish she loved me like LA" . It gives a feeling that only comes when the music has captured a sentiment which the writer can only convey through song. The song was great, so are the lessons... I owe you one so i'll def. vote for him.

[gally042]

hey man, yeah i know seth jones wrote that song and it is so awesome lol, i think it will be a huge hit and hopefully Ricky will get to sing it!! lol, thanks a lot man and i appreciate the support for him man, take care and always glad to help with the lessons

[essiek24]

He graduated from my high school!!!

and he grew up in the town i live in, so i'm definetely voting for him :)

[gally042]

That is great! Yeah I live up in Raleigh and ricky is a great guy

[omgorshwtf]

i cant coz i live in nz =[

but i would

all the good stuff is in the states and if i like order a t-shirt of any sites it will cost me like double or tripple and postage =p

[gally042]

thats alright, i appreciate the comment buddy, take care

[PouncingPenguin]

Yo man for sure i'll vote for him, hope he wins

[gally042]

Me too buddy. I appreciate the support of Ricky and tell all your friends. Best,

Aaron

[JoshHamric]

It's so sad that people like Ricky get hardly any airtime on the show and annoying ones like Tatianna get 30% of airtime. Megan Corkrey is my favorite and like Braddy she hasn't received any time on the show. I'll definitely vote for him since this week she won't be on the same show as him. And again thanks for all the lesson Aaron!

[gally042]

Hey there, Well I think they are moving away from drama and wil begin to focus now on the great singers. RICKY IS THE MAN. Thanks for supporting him. Glad to help with the lessons as always

[skcm2006]

Roger - Will Do!

[gally042]
