I have to side with csnumber on this one. I also like Nickelback, Daughtry and Lee. I tend to listen to alternative rock.It's funny how each person's musical tastes will shade their perception of each contestant.
Has Lee been a little pitchy? Yeah, there were a couple of times over the span of all these weeks. But I like his voice, I like what he's done with the songs he's been given, and I'd probably buy his CD.
Is Crystal a good singer? Yes, but I find her boring. I don't care for her musical style. I won't be buying her music. I also found Mike to be very boring. Nice voice but boooorrring. Just like Reuben Studdard.
Does Casey deserve to be in the top 3 based on his singing alone? No, but he's a really good guitarist and some of the stuff that he's done with the guitar has made him more interesting to the voters, hence his place in the top 3.
YMMV
