I don’t know how DeAndre Brackensick lost the American Idol Season 11 win. Don’t. Know. How! Seriously – listen to his relaxed, spontaneous, meticulous vocal of Pretty Wings (featured below this article) and then you decide if American Idol dropped the ball with this unbelievably gifted and charismatic young artist.

I don’t know if I am more excited over the fact that DeAndre Brackensick has a new single out or that he has now shortened his name to DeAndre? I was hoping that the latter would have happened while he was still on American Idol – it’s not like there are any more DeAndres out […]

Has anyone heard Phillip Phillips‘ new single, Gone, Gone, Gone? Yes? No? At any rate, you will be able to catch it live on the Thursday, March 14th American Idol Results Show.

So now what indeed? Do these two talented singers have any chance at all to succeed in the music business?

When I first saw Phillip Phillips perform his first audition, my initial reaction was that he could be the ONE! He had all the quirky, yet humble ingredients that served other male winners very well. He reminded me of a younger version of Season 5 winner, Taylor Hicks, and we all know how that season […]

I am adding this VM Discussion topic early for a couple of reasons.

On Thursday, May 17th, Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips learned that they would advance to the Top 2 Performance Finale.

Does anybody out there have any idea what is going on with this show this year?

Spoiler Below: Picture Of Song Picks Below Article. Source: MJsBigBlog.Com Ugh! Just ugh! I am so underwhelmed with this show right about now.
