I read your posts :>
As for people adopting comments used by the judges, it's a natural phenomenon to copy/use something ready than to come up with something original.

;D Here's something original:
1. Shannon cannot, must not and should not even attempt to move on stage. He's as rigid as a dead cat. At times in the middle of songs, he "remembers" his choreography..."okay, here, I've got to jump up," "okay, here I'm gonna shoot my arm out." But when he does these things, it's jerky, unnatural and makes him look like a 5-year-old boy trying to look cool.
2. Shannon would make a fantastic ventriloquist. He couldn't open his mouth if he tried. Both when he talks AND sings, it's closed. Annoying.
3. It's not enough for Shannon to have that certain "x factor." EXCUSE ME??? The man must be able to SING!!! He's off-key unless he's screaming, which sends me screaming every times I listen to him sing.
4. He's ARROGANT. Every time after Dicko or someone makes a good, objective comment about his "lower register" or whatever, he glibly shrugs it off and says, "I don't agree with him, but he's entitled to his opinion." HELLOOOOOOOOOO? Dicko's the head of a record company. Doesn't Shannon think he'd know? Duh.
Stop fooling yourselves. Shannon is a great singer, but when he's alone in his own shower.

Lol you're cheeky! I did wonder about his stance whenever he was told he had a problem with certain notes. Millsy used to do the same kind of thing if memory serves me correctly. I don't think that served him well. Defending yourself over an insult is one thing, however not taking constructive criticism is a tad self absorbed, especially when it isn't from the same source.
Guy was advised to stop changing the melody so much. Given his performances after the commentary, he followed up on it and concentrated on arrangement more. It's hard to restrain creativity and Guy is blessed with it as well as humility.

I have to admit Shannon has had a couple of bad times singing. But on Sunday night he was so much beter then Guy. Do you all really think that Guy is going to look any good representing Australia when he doesent even look Australian? Think about it Shannon has that Ausie look and sings like a ausie, and has had all the experiences that ausies have to face,(drought, looking after his farm), Shannon should win this compitition there is no doubt about it in my mind. Im sure that if all you think about i to you could see it aswell.

I rolled around laughing when I saw him sing that New York New York song - the jumps, the shoot the arm out. What a scream! Sooooooo funny!

They all don't look Aboriginal to me, so how can you say one looks more 'Australian' than the other.
Just because some is white (Anglo-descent), does not make them 'more Australian'.

WHAT DOES AN AUSTRALIAN LOOK LIKE, YOU KKK TWIT! Okay, let's take away all of Cathy Freeman's metals and, OMG, why in hell did we let her be so visible in the Olympics?!?! You represent the horrid, festering racism that is driving pus-brained bigots like yourself to vote for Shannon-- 1. He "looks" Australian 2. He needs our sympathy. What about his farm? OMG!!! Please take your pea-sized brain and shove it up your lily white arse, tightly, so that your mouth is not able to utter such hate-propagating vomit ever again. In case you're wondering, I'm white.
