Chris to me...has it all. Nice, laid-back personailty, cute, not too young or too old, With the best wow voice.

*Love* Chris. With a capital L.

I am interested to see how he does on the different show nights, but I think he can pull it off and make each song his own. It's going to be interesting to see how any of the guys do on the varying theme nights -- each one of them has a particular niche carved out already.

I love Bo, but Chris is totally different than Bo. Rawer and harder. I.love.it.

(I love Elliott, too, but I know this is a Chris thread. lol)

I absolutely love Chris. He is by far my favorite. I also love Taylor but Chris (like Bo) has real life stage experience to draw from and boy, does it show. Chris seems very pleasant, and Plus, he's hot. Not pretty, mind you. I am not a fan of the pretty ones. I like the edge.

Can he win? I really hope so, but I don't know if voters are ready to crown a rocker yet. All I know is that I have already found my favorite. I hope at the very least that he makes it really far!

I really liked Chris performance the other night. He nailed that song!

If he doesnt win (I dont think he will really its Taylor's to lose) maybe he can geta movie deal with his twin brother....Vin Diesel!!!LOLOLOL

I hope he does! I'm a grandma...he reminds me of my son a bit in looks. Don't take this wrong, but even for an old lady...he is HOT! I love Chris. I hope he wins! Will be interesting to see how he handles other music. He's great to look at, and a nice, clean, family man. His smile is captivating. His voice was the best of all the guys. Better than Bo! He probably already is getting contract offers put together. Even if he doesn't win this AI, Chris will be a winner!

Yes, he should.

I hope he goes far....in my book, he's top 3.

However, I have little faith in those who vote....namely the little pre-teens. They just don't get it. And they have more ambition to keep redialing---I try my best as a 40+ gal.

I love that he wears a wedding ring, and is proud of the fact of being married with children. That's darn hot to me!!!!

And his chiseled muscles are steamy too.

Can he win? You bet! He's definitely one of the top 3 as far as talent, personality, "it" factor.

Will he win? Who knows? I hopes he does, but every season we're surprised by someone that advances that shouldn't, and someone that gets booted that shouldn't.

He can be compared to Bo because this early on, he stands out head and shoulders above the other guys, like Bo did last season.

Right now he is being very smart with song selection, but it is too early too tell with him. I want to see how he handles those curveballs like "Songs from Musicals" theme night first, before I start placing odds on him. He's extremely talented, but I see him as more of a one-trick pony at this point...once he ventures out of that modern rock comfort zone I think he's going to struggle a little bit.

I hope I'm wrong, because he IS fun to watch.

Musical night....hmmm....Jesus Christ, Superstar?????

I love him and he's so hot!!!! I also like that he's a family man and proud of it! I think he will be in the top three mabye the top two but I still think Taylor will take it. I think at the very least he will get a great contract.

"Musical night....hmmm....Jesus Christ, Superstar?????"

I'm thinking "Hair"

Tommy?

I agree that it's too early to tell.

Taylor, Elliot & Chris (probably in that order) are my personal top 3, but we've all seen things change a ton once they move into the top 12.

My ONLY complaint about Chris is that he seems to be holding back. I want to see him really let go like the Rock Star contestents did. I feel like he's toned it down because it's primarily a pop contest.

I like Chris alot, I think he has a great voice and picks all the right songs to sing. He will go far in this competition.

I agree. I hope Chris sings something a bit more lively soon. Stevie Wonder Week will definitely be his first real test.

The second link plays an Absent Element song, "Breakdown", with Chris on vocals. Very cool song. Cool guy. Lots of pictures. *swoon*

Honestly, I hope Bucky sneaks in there to take it
all the way to the win. Hahaha.
I mean this guy what's the deal? Am I missing something?
I am not a fan.

I cannot describe how much I love Chris. He will win, or should win just like last year Bo should have won. But I don't compare them in any other way except they are both rockers. Chris is more modern. I don't understand why everyone is worried about him on theme nights, but not worried about Taylor.

Has Taylor gone out of his comfort zone yet? I've been watching from the beginning and I can't remember a time. So far he has done all that easy listening bluesy, soul-y kind of stuff that he loves. So can Taylor do better than Chris on say musical night? I doubt it. what has happened to make anyone believe he could do better? nothing.

Chris Rocks, Chris should win. He's got it all.

I think Chris is very talented and I think he will only do better as he gets more comfortable with the whole production. I'm not sure yet if I will be voting for him all the way, I'm still trying to find out who my favorite is.

Will he win, I'm not sure. Not everybody out there are cool rock fans like oursleves! Let's not forget that Carrie Underwear was able to win the competition last season. Lame! Makes you wonder who the heck is voting! I was voting for Bo, but was glad for him in a way when he didn't win. He doesn't need Idol.

I am getting a little tired of his turning everything into a rock song. Getting too predictable and stale. I didn't care for the way he changed "Walk the Line." It sounded alright, but really didn't go with the lyrics. Sounded more like he was going to a funeral than promising another to be faithful. It was way too melodramatic. He has not shown much range so far. He would be good as the lead singer of a rock band, but I have serious doubts about his success as a solo singer.

I couldn’t disagree more. I thought Chris’ version of Walk the Line was great. I’d buy that album today.

Reminds me of Johnny Cash doing Rusty Cage. I love genre bending remakes. A very good job IMO.
