ode to the soapbox

i'm watching american idol now, yet i'm writing this.

after 8 seasons, i really want to see someone who could blow me out, make me jump off the couch but what i got so far were mediocre singers.

ok some of them do have a good voice but they were plain boring to watch. i mean, what's up with the songs selection? why must it be elvis', or aretha franklin's songs? they should know that most of the voters are youngsters, and even me cannot relate much to those kind of songs. i'd rather hear backstreet boys than, you now, elvis or even the beatles.

and those contestants! have some attitude please. goodies-goodies are plain b.o.r.i.n.g.

and the judges now are 4 people! i don't know what's the point, 3 of them are just bleah ass-kissers. really! only simon comments with some sense.

so far.. not liking it.
