The Arbitrary ChuckJerry

First of all, the first few weeks of American Idol are the best few hours in television history. Although I'm certain that a lot of those auditions are staged, I'm sure that some of them, maybe even most of them, are real and they are just spectuacular. I mean, if I could wait on a line for half an hour and then try out for American Idol I would definitely do it as a joke, but these people wait for like 10 and 12 hours to try out to be the American Idol and they know that they suck. How could they not think that they don't suck?

Anyway, the person who must hate American Idol the most out of everyone is Alicia Keyes. Her songs get absolutely butchered on the regular by the clowns who are auditioning. Alicia Keyes' songs are really intricate and the voicing is not really one that's repeatable. She's not the greatest singer on Earth, but she's got a very strong and very unique voice. Her music should not be sung by most people, but every year fools come out like, "I keep on fallin' i-i-i-i-i-i-innnnnnn....and out of love," or "a real man, knows a real woman when he sees her," or "what goes a-round come a-round what goes up must come down."

Alicia, I feel for you, baby.
