Guy will sell his forthcoming album. But will he sell anymore? He needs to take advice from the experts at the record company. But I don't think he is and he insists on bastardizing the melody all the time. He can be very painful to listen to. Frankly, he was just plain embarassing on World Idol. What was he thinking! He tried to fit every vocal gymnastic he could think of into the song. Just terrible. The only performers worse than him were the German and the Pole. He was lucky to come 7th.
Guy, An international star? Not in this lifetime!

Guy, An international star? Not in this lifetime! i believe the actual record company supplied most of the songs, equipment, the six-day recording timeframe, etc... what are you on about listening to them? not sure what you mean about bastardizing the melody, he's versatile which is what made him aus idol. taking ownership of the song and making it his own. in case you haven't heard, guy is already an international star and i can't wait for his next album. |

Afroembryo!
Hey, I read on another forum that there is an article on Guy in Rolling Stone mag. Have you seen it? Was wondering if I could pick it up here in the US or if it is only in an Australian edition??
Great for GUY!!

Hate me, but at World Idol I didn't care much about Guy's performance, I didn't like what he made of the song and didn't waste another thought on it. Vote for him? Hell no! Well, that was then.
Now that I've read so much about Guy in all these message boards I think I was a little too quick dismissing him and I think I might listen to some of his songs that some of you suggested he rather should've sung.
I think a lot of people who didn't know Guy thought about him the same way I did. They weren't used to him, he was just one out of 11 and his version of "Wonderful World" simply didn't appeal to them.
And most people (like me), listened to the songs rather superficially instead of analyzing them to pieces or wondering, if the idol is having a bad day or picked the wrong song.
They were either touched by a performance or they forgot about it and went on to the next song hoping it would be better.
Of course one song is not enough to judge how good someone can sing and if Guy has so many fans I'm sure there must be something to it.
I understand that some people think Guy's performance was better than Kurt's because Kurt only imitated U2 while Guy came up with his own interpretation of the song. But at WI only the first impression counted. And it was Kurt who swept people off their feet.
