I do, very.
-m.
You must remember that this is a tv show and what matters are ratings.
Certain people and situations can be stage managed in order to give a
desired effect and so increase viewers and ratings and that in turn
attracts commercial entities who will want to offer sponsorship deals
and have advertising slots on the show. Companies pay a lot of money
for huge lucrative contracts such as this and so the producers will always
look for ways to increase the viewing audience. More interest means
more revenue.
I have been thought to examine every facet and detail of a situation
before making a cold calculated conclusion. Facts are what matter,
not emotions. Facts allow you to arrive at the truth and facts cannot
be ruled out or overturned. Once you have the facts, then you have
the WHOLE story. Emotions, while useful to a certain extent
can blind you to what is really going on.

If they were not then they would not be called facts.
The likes of Simon Cowell and others like him would only be interested in facts
not emotions.
Facts like how many people watched the show?
How much money can I make if such a company sponsors the show?
How many sales units will I get from his album?
How many more people will watch the show if I ask Lady Ga Ga to appear
as a guest judge?
These are all deliberate contrived actions used to reach a higher goal.
Cold clinical actions designed to pull at your emotions.

not make it a fact. Superstition and fear ruled then. It was only after the 1300's that man began to widely travel the globe and learn all kinds of knowledge which
put an end to superstition and fear.
Knowledge is power. Discovering facts can give you that power.
Once you discover the facts then you have arrived at the solution.
That is why in a court of law facts are what is important.

Much better than average voice. Not world class yet. Very good, needs training. He needs to sing from the back of his throat more.
