If you like that sort of thing, I guess...

To me it appears to be a lot of sparkly plastic style minus any substance - artificiality without content. Those slapping gestures don't equal "feeling," nor do random ultra-high notes equal good singing.

But, if you like that sort of thing...

I don't usually, but there's something so odd and individualistic and weird and unusual and true-to-the-weirdness-that-is-himself about this kid that I end of sort-of respecting him for upholding his integrity.

And the more people dislike him, the more I feel like I like him.

I see what you mean, but, personally, I don't see anything more "individualistic" (individual?) or "weird" than we see from the other fey teens found on American Idol, The Voice, The X Factor, etc.

What he does, he definitely does to the extreme; but it's hardly anything that hasn't been seen before.

If Michael Jackson had given us a rendition of I Dreamed a Dream, this is what it would sound like. No thank you.

Actually, if Michael Jackson (at his Thriller best) had given us a rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream," it might have been phenomenal.

Maybe, but to some I am sure this kid is phenomenal, just not my cup of tea.

Now he's being bad-mouthed on the Off Topic Board.

Wow... I normally agree with you, PalJoey, but that was excruciating. And I love "What Kind Of Fool Am I?". I agree with Jordan. The best part was when he stopped singing.

Kinda reminds me of that painful Broadway album Debbie Gibson put out.

I have mixed thoughts. First, I think it's a beautiful voice. Second, is that a girl or a boy? third, what's with the headshot taking up most of the frame? (I guess it's a three-in-one video, audition for song, acting, and modeling).

A little too much histrionics.

But I'm going to listen to it again, I like the voice!
