[W]hat happened to all of the vocal diversity of past seasons? Last year we had a rocker and several country singers and it would have made sense to continue in that direction given that the two biggest stars from the past two seasons are Carrie Underwood and Chris Daughtry, who has somewhat surprisingly outsold everybody else from Season 5, thanks to an annoying catchy rock song that's constantly on the radio. But nobody this season rocks and nobody this season seems to be country-fied. With the vast majority of this year's Top 24, in fact, we don't have any real indication of what, exactly, their strengths might be.Also, Chris Sligh has shut down his blog, meaning that he's probably giving up Idol to blog for the Edwards campaign or just that 19E asked him to.
Also, not related to this post necessarily, but the lurkers out there should know that you're totally welcome to join us in the conversation whenever and wherever you want. I know it seems like we all know each other, but, really, we don't, and all it takes is a first comment to break the ice. Go ahead -- the more, the merrier.
