As an accomplished traditional jazz musician, none of them were in the style of jazz, but rather R&B.

micheal is pretty sexy! i'm rooting for him.

but i've actually met london. she's my teacher's daughter in law. she came in the class room and sung for us along with her husband lance and brother in law gill. she's really sweet. she should have made it.

[tallderektoronto]

That's such a cool story ! Do you know why she did not make it into the top 24?

[alyssa29483]

i honestly don't know. she was definately good enough.

[tknoteldy6]

I'm actually friends with London. We went to high school together and she was always so talented. Anyway, she was really upset after she was cut from AI because she found out that they really do pick who's leaving and who's staying before the next round of auditions.

[tknoteldy6]

I'm actually friends with London.They really do pick who's leaving and who's staying before the next round of auditions. She was told at her audition in Hollywood that she did not make it through. She received her plane ticket but then called the airport to change the time of her flight. They told her that she could not change the flight because it was booked for her a week before. That was before her audition in Hollywood. I wonder...

[tallderektoronto]

I always wondered why London did not make the top 24. Perhaps it was a close call ? Without discrediting what you said because as a friend you obviously know her story - I wonder if perhaps she was to similar to others they had allready chosen or they just changed their minds and picked someone else last minute ? With only 24 spots and over 100 people it's a tough choice for them to make. However she sure had alot of talent, thanks for the posting.

omg you got michael right! he made it to the top twelve and YES hez soooo HOT and a really good singer...i dont remember london though, but she kinda looks like Brooke White...doesnt she?

[tallderektoronto]

She does, a little

[Alexx011x]

i love Michael! wow, i dont remember London, but shes so pretty, i think she looks like she could be Avril Lavignes twin! she was so good too! when did she get voted off?

[tallderektoronto]

Ya I agree she does look alot like Avril - they never did mention when London left, I guess during the week of Hollywood Mayhem she got the boot :(

[Alexx011x]

oo, i dont see why, i mean, she was really good in this audition! but overall now, i want michael or Brooke to win, but mostly Brooke lol

[RhiannanAR]

Ty for posting AI highlights again Derek!! Your highlight videos are as much a ritual to me as watching the damn show!! TY for helping to feed one of my addictions - AI!! :_)

[aftershock02]

can you pls. feature more good singers?? u only have 2 singers in this clip.. thanks.

[tallderektoronto]

Ya sure, Sure, but please if you are thinking of anyone that you thought desreved to be mentioned - let us know here. I like hearing what others think about IDOL this year - it's why I do created this discussion blog. Thanks and enjoy the season !

[pheonixrisin]

Aussie boy is gonna make the top 12 for sure

[glitterkills]

Thank goodness you're sharing the good ones. That's the only reason I watch American Idol, to enjoy the voices (not the humiliation). Thanks for sharing your favorites. ^^

[tallderektoronto]

Oh your welcome. it's true so many people put of the bad singers just to laugh at them, which annoys me alot. It's easier to me mean than nice. You rock ! Enjoy the season and I am tickled pink you liked this collaboration.

[armanth13]

TBH there are a few who's costumes and attempt at singing are truly funny, but a lot of people get false hope from their friends, and get on here just beacuse. I expect one person to come in and sing very badly, like just a scream or a moan and then say *oh I just won a bet*

[tncmre]

this girl can sing better than she sang. i know this girl. we played 2gether when we were kids on sullivans island and i always knew she was gonna do something... GO LONDON!!!!

[tallderektoronto]

Ya I hope she goes far, seems really talented.

[ClearlyBored1]

You talk to much...shut up!!

[tallderektoronto]

Ok Clearlybored1, I shall try and wrap them up quicker in the future. I tend to ramble when it's about a subject I like alot.

[ClearlyBored1]

..hehe...can't believe you didn't curse me out. Your cool dude! ;)

[popeye135]

hahahaahaha lmao yea i agree

[chamakmak2006]

[tallderektoronto]

yup I am a guy that likes guys ! You got it :)

[reccasheena]

Carly Smithson will win American Idol 7

[tabsandy]

i think so too, but samantha musa and cristy lee cook are good tooooo

[montrealstud79]

Ben Mulroney is the reason I dislike Canadian Idol the most ! When your not up to par with the talent in looks you should not be the host. I mean, why does Canada do things backwards sometimes ? The only reason Ben is the host is because his father was a former Prime Minister.

[tallderektoronto]

thanks for the comments but let's remember this is about American Idol 7 :) it aint no "Ben Bitch Board" haha. I'll make a video abotu him soon, trust me. Then please forward these comments on :)

[Harpal08]

Sorry but they r trying to act like something ther are not, thats good singers, the aussie was ok ill give u that but the blondie was a mess, cant see any of these goin through the next round if they do they will deffo not be wining. Check out Pia on american idol much better.

[tallderektoronto]

Yes she is good, she reminds me of Canada's Jully Black - a wonderful soul singer. You may/may not have heard of her - check out her recent song SEVEN DAY FOOL. It's a top 20 hit here.

[pheonixrisin]

Yes Pia is good but she's another Fanatsia. I agree with you and the other two about the host from CDN Idol. Why did they choose him over other famous Canadians like Rick from Entertainment Tonight Canada for a good example ? He has way more character and less of an ego than than BEN. It's not Canada that does it backwards, it's more like "What we're the producers thinking?"

[jcperez10]

I second that Ben Mulroney is the worst host ever geez Canadian Idol what da hell are you thinking hiring him ???

[tallderektoronto]

lol - it has to be the last name, what else could it be ? He's no Ryan Seacrest

[lego997]

She is my fav. :)

[mediajunkie29]

You should replace Ben Mulroney on Canadian Idol :)

[pheonixrisin]

lol actually media, you may be onto something there !
