PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Confession of a mono tone!!!! Make that a rant!" |
LAST EDITED ON 02-04-04 AT 12:37 PM (EST)This probably comes as no surprise to anyone, but I can't sing. I have a terrible voice. I really never sing. Well may be a little in the car, but not anywhere where someone would hear me. I am a mono tone that is off key. I KNOW THIS. No one has to tell me. I am not stupid enough to go try out for AI thinking I can sing. So who are these 70,000 people a season that show up that can't sing and don't know it? I have to admit my favorite part is when they show all the bad singers, but surely they know they are bad. Come on, some of them are as bad as me and have the nerve to look at Simon, Randy and Paula and tell them they are wrong. Even me, with my tin ear, would have come up with virtually the same 120 people that they did. So what is with people that are so delusional?
Help me out here peps.
The little asian guy was the best! He like me has no professional training.

Some people must know they are bad and just want to get on TV, so they make sure they are so bad that they get on the audition shows as one of most entertaining of the worst.Others I think are just wishful thinking and full of themselves.

I think it's the whole "rock star" (or "pop" star in this case) fantasy. Music is a big part of a teenager's life, and so is the need for adulation and acceptance.I can't sing worth a carp, but I have to admit I've listened to Heart and fantasized that it was *ME* with those pipes in front of all those adoring fans! You've probably done this yourself at some point in your life, WCH, imagined yourself jumping up on stage at the nudie bar and belting out a tune and just blowing everyone away with your talent.  I think what happens to some people is that they just cling to that fantasy and maybe really believe it can happen. Several of those 70,000 people said they could be the next AI because they have "drive" and "desire" and "belief in myself." What they have is that fantasy. The rock star alter-ego that comes out when a good tune comes on the radio. I think it must just blind (or deafen?) them or something. They can really see themselves in that role because they've imagined it for so long.

He's a magic man...ahh, gotta love Heart. Although, as a child of the 80s, I was singing "These Dreams" and "What About Lvoe" into my plastic spoon/hairbrush/actual microphone my parents bought me because I put on so many fake concerts. WCH I totally agree with you! I know I can't sing although I love to try (fiance always tells me I can sing...he's so sweet, but hey, I have ears.) and I wouldn't be caught dead auditioning for AI. At the same time, if my friend/fiance/sister or anyone I know who can't sing wanted to audition, I would totally tell them no way!

Now it's more than a delusion, it's actually an experience. A lot of people audition just to audition--and if you're terrible, at this point, so what? If a bunch of friends were getting together and looking for something to do one day and decided to "try out for AI together", I can see myself doing it. Most people have no idea how they sound when they sing--and if a producer is feeding their ego, well then...
