Of course he aint no Bob Dylan, at least not yet, but who knows what the future brings... he aint't no bono either. when it comes to song writing, much like singing, you either have it or you don't. you can practice and practice but you aren't going beyond your given talent. i listened to his songs including the FL stuff because i found his voice interesting enough but they were generic at best, down right boring actually.

To anon, If we are going to talk about would have, should have and could have, then Guy would have kick ass if he sang a powerful song such as when doves cry. After all WI was based on one short performance and in such cases, song choice is extremely important.

I agree that World Idol was a bit of a stupid concept to begin with but a lot of u bagging it out now should think back to when they first heard about it. I'm sure I recall countless posts along the lines of "oh I can't wait till World Idol! Now every1 can see how talented our Guy is and he's gonna win!" etc etc. But sicne he didn't win, now every1's bagging the show. It's over now, it happened. The producers got what they wanted; they had a large part of the world hooked and earned their money. But don't forget that through this experience the contestants gained experience, constructive ( I guess lol ) critisism on how to improve, and the chance to meet talents like themselves from around the world. Kelly has gone international, Guy will soon enough and I'm sure Will will be a hit as soon as he does. But a talented young father of 2/singer like Kurt probably would have been overlooked. Now that his talent has been showcased to the world maybe that will give him the chance to spread out of Norway and release albums in other nations. So I guess you couldn't call WI a completye waste of time if it was able to do something like this for someone like Kurt.

i think most of us agree that the results were unexpected and our Guy should have been ranked higher than he was. well we know that he did better than 6th but wat does that ranking really mean.. we know Guy is better than that and now that WI is over there is nothing we can do to change the results. Kurt did a good job and he should be congratulated. as for Guy,WI has given him international exposer and he has built a bigger fan base and we should be happy for him. he can still prove the world wrong wen he tops the charts around. it doesnt matter wat ever placing he got, we love Guy Sebastian for his talent and his personality and if the world doesnt then they are missing out. like really its not like the Guy fans here are gonna say he didnt win i dont like him anymore so y does it matter if he didnt win. he made australia proud and bought happiness and joy to families during the festive season with his song choice..so good on him Go Guy..Luv Ya Sweetie

Anyone, can see the voting was manipulated - it was glaringly obvious. Guy was great. Only clueless people who can’t really judge talent can argue against that. He was my favorite and his singing was beautiful and I voted for him here in America, and most people agreed he was gonna be a strong contender. They are shocked about his ranking. I like Kurt and thought he was good too, but he was third favorite with me. But I expected he’d win because it was clear the Idol producers wanted him to win. But I expected Guy to be in the top 3 at least. But looking at the results it’s obvious the votes were manipulated by producers -- this is still a reality show people. Like you said how could anyone not see the results can’t be totally accurate if they said someone like Alexander was voted first place in the Arab countries when it was clear he wasn’t that good. This is political to make the Arabs look like they’re stupid because of all the conflict going on. But some people are not sophisticated enough to see through this manipulations. (Arab countries usually like the soulful melodic type songs like Guy sang too. I’m an international person and I’m familiar with different cultures) And nothing wrong with Guy's arrangement of the song either. I prefer his version to the original – that one is boring and jazzy. This not about having a problem that Kurt won. Its just hard to believe that people are actually using this results to claim the world doesn’t think Guy is good enough and should rank so low. The producers already knew how they gonna do the ranking for whatever reason (maybe to help some safe face, and others sell more records) The peoples votes didn’t really have much to do with it. And nothing wrong with his arrangement of the song either. His rendition is better than the original – that one is boring and jazzy. Oh and I don’t think Peter was the worst really. He was ok and 6th on my list. (Alexander last place) But I certainly don’t think Peter, Heinz, or Ryan would have placed higher than Guy. Anyone who has a clue about judging talent can see that.
