Is it just me or does "Hold On" sound like a potential elimination song on idol? I don't really care for the song, and I HATE Chad Kroeger. I'm not on the hate-Kara D. train. She really was the best judge in season 9, tbh. But as I said.. elimination-ish?
@hotelangel Not a promise break; just a typo this is just on the last message I meant the switchup from How do I get to Heaven from here? to the ultra powerful HOW THE HELL DO I GET TO HEAVEN FROM HERE?! I mean Crystal can belt it out like no other. Just listen to that song again and listen to Arlene for the beautiful piece of songwriting that it is. I know you can still hate or dislike these songs but I just ask for one more listen. This is a correction of the last text, not a new one.
@hotelangel Bottom line, I love the CD and you clearly don't. I promise that if you do not reply to any of these last messages, this will be my last. I ask please that you reconsider this CD and listen again, in a very quiet moment. Listen to Holy Toledo LOUDLY and check out the amazing switch up on the last verse when she changes from how the Hell do I get to Heaven from here to HOW IN THE HELL DO I GET TO HEAVEN FROM HERE?! Pure genius..easily as hot as Stairway to Heaven. One more time?
@hotelangel Oh, and I didn't call you sexist, that was your wording. A detractor can just as easily be a male as a female. They look for nitpicky little things about a truly gifted artist and a remarkable first debut (Lee's horrific one was btw his third!) and just cannot see the whole picture. I mean it never fails that even when somebody finds all these things to complain about with Crystal they still say the same thing..great vocals. And we all know she also has great stage presence.I
@hotelangel Honey, you FAR FROM gave Crystal an A+. You said you'd rather listen to her sing the phone book than listen to Arlene and it's my belief you did not give it a fair listen. Her vocals are stunning on that song. I truly believe you are clueless about what the song means; not because you couldn't comprehend it but because you didn't bother to. I know it's your opinion. I am just saying you cannot spot a star of which she surely will be, a truly gifted artist.
@hotelangel Just one more thing and then I'll leave you alone. You are concerned where they will place her. Some people like to say that. Great artists don't have to be pigenholed. They also don't have to be Lady GaGa. Susan Boyle whom I'm not a fan of is #1 everywhere. Ultimately it's about a great voice and great stage presence and great songwriting and great chrisima and great versatility and Crystal has all of those things. When people have that gift it puts them apart. She does.
@hotelangel Sorry I essentially gave you the same message twice because I didn't spot the first one, was looking at highest rated ones, until I sent the second one. You are wrong about Crystal. You are entitled to your own opinion of course but Kris is not a remarkable artist and Crystal is. She is a standout..she has incredible vocals which even you admit and she's also a remarkable songwriter. Whenver women are really powerful there are always detractors. This is a really impressive debut!
@hotelangel Technically you're right, you did rate Crystal higher than Lee. The problem lies in the fact that Lee's CD is really bad and Crystal's CD is really great! Giving Lee a D was appropriate however Crystal is anything but average. I find it funny that the detractors including yourself admit that Crystal has a great voice but try to nitpick little things that aren't even true and cannot see the total picture. You'll see..Crystal is powerful and unstoppable, a remarkable debut cd.
@hotelangel Well, literally that's true and of course you have the right to your opinion. In reality though Crystal is a trillion tmes better than Lee and Crystal is anything but average. I can't change your mind. You can't change mine. But keep you eye on Crystal. You are going to see exactly what I mean someday soon. She will be a star; she's a brilliant artist and greatness both comes with a price (detractors) & ultimately is unstoppable. She's a powerful woman, have a great Xmas!
@hotelangel Have you seen Crystal's remarkable video for Farmer's Daughter yet? I suggest you watch it and give a second LOUD listen to Holy Toledo..the build up to the switch from How do I get to Heaven From Here to HOW IN THE HELL DO I GET TO HEAVEN FROM HERE..those are powerful vocals!! You are calling a brilliant upcoming atist "average" and you are so wrong..get ready to eat your words! You have a right to your opinion but deceptive at the start implying a good review. Ridiculous dude!!
@LitZena The video is great, but that doesn't change my opinion about the CD as a whole. And how exactly was I deceptive? I said that I had hoped that it would be better than Lee's CD, and it was.
This dude better keep his day job. Crystal is headed for superstardom and Kris is headed for elevator musak..however this dude gave Kris a B+ and Crystal is C! A C is average and Crystal is anything but..Crystal is incredibly gifted and her debut CD is EPIC..Check out Holy Toledo the last verse is KILLER..going from How do I get to Heaven from Here to HOW IN THE HELL DO I GET TO HEAVEN FROM HERE?! Powerful vocals! Deception in your lame review also; start as if you are going to be positive!
@TheUnknownYou It's a free country to have a stupid review; never said it wasn't. Doesn't change the fact that he didn't even understand Arlene and he starts the review by deception; pretending he's going to go positive until he starts talking. The dude is clueless as to who will be famous of which Crystal will and Kris won't. There's always detractors around and esp. men that just can't handle strong women. Never said he can't have an opinion. I just gave mine of his which is my right2
@hotelangel Your review of Crystal's cd was nothing short of ridiculous. I think you ought to have another listen and review it again; it will be an embarrassment to you otherwise when this CD SOARS and so does Crystal. Even you admit that she has a great voice and yet you cannot imagine anyone wanting it. GREATNESS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE PIGEONHOLED! Listen in a quiet room loud and deeply to Holy Toledo; it's easily as good as Stairway to Heaven! Dude, you give Kris a B+ Crystal C INSANE!!
@dalkus Lee's CD was horrific, the worst in Idol history and Crystal's is absolutely awesome!! This same dude gave Adam a C+ and Kris a B+; he wouldn't know superstardom from a hole in the wall; Crystal will be hugely famous and Lee..well, there's always another paintstore with a help want sign available.
You gave Adam a c+ and Kris like a B+ I believe so you obviously have no ability in spotting s superstar as Crystal will definitely be! The song Holy Toledo,listen loud; it's EPIC easily as good as Stairway to Heaven. Arlene is so gorgeously udnerstated; Crystal's vocals spot on and stunning about a woman's empowerment, something dude you wouldn't know if it landed on your head. Even you admit Crystal has a great voice; don't worry where to place her; greats like her will be HEARD EVERYWHERE!
Do you play an instrument? have any musical talent? what qualifications do you have? this album is pure artistry. A+ music back in the day was better than todays crap... crystal was better than Lisa marie the day she first found her mothers guitar in her closet. comment on something else.
Most people who buy CD's and buy music can't play instruments or have musical talents. That doesn't mean they can't say what a good or a bad song is... Don't be stupid!
