There is a woman at my church who cantors and her voice literally gives me a headache. After church, I have to take 3 Excedrin Migraine pills. Normally, when she sings I wear ear plugs; but I forgot them last Sunday and she was loud even for her. The woman thinks that every high note has to be loud - really, really loud. I guess no one every taught her about the dynamics that every piece of music has written into it. I wouldn't be surprised if she wasn't cracking the stained glass! Her voice is ok, but that high note screeching just makes me want to skip church entirely. I have no idea why someone hasn't said something to her. At the very least, they need to take the microphone away from her because even without a microphone, I think she could still be heard miles away. I have been asked to sing at church because my voice is decent; but I really don't want to be a member of any musical organization that has that woman as a cantor. Why on earth do people have to be loud when they are singing into a microphone?
@@faithfulforever6331 It's the same way on Wheel of Fortune, they yell when they are wearing a microphone. I can't even watch because it's so irritating. As for your question, people like that think they can sing better than they can and just want to be heard.
Judges are not looking for "not terrible." They seek OUTSTANDING SINGING TALENT, not ok, not mediocre, not pretty good, not all right. OUTSTANDING. They have thousands to choose from.
Official James Parker I know. I just call the truth out on things. I am glad I have helped you admit this to yourself. Now you are ready to go out into the world a new man!
Your 'truth' is a reference to penises being inserted into someone's ass, in which you claim would make someone a 'new man'. I'm curious, do you have an ego problem at all? Serious question. You seem to make a frequent mockery to homosexuality, it's rather odd. And in references to your comment, I'm not gay; thanks for asking anyway.
A friend of mine with zero singing talent actually auditioned for Idol's South Africa on a dare. He got through to the 2nd round. He took the piss and they all said "Yes". He bombed after that because he chickend out and never returned.
There's one thing that has started to bother me: judges saying "that wasn't a compliment" when someone says "thank you". Don't they know that you can also thank for critisism and negative feedback? (Unless you're a self-centered ass who has never been told no, then you just flip out because someone dares to say you can't sing.)
Tuula Maria hmm......although I'm personally not bothered by it when the judges say "it wasn't a compliment" right after a contestant says "thank you", you do make a good point.
There's a difference between 'thanks for the compliment' and 'thanks for the constructive criticism'. The 'thank you' offered is definitely of the 'thanks for the compliment' variety... THAT'S why Simon emphasizes that it was NOT a compliment! Otherwise these poor people would delude themselves into thinking he liked them, and expect a ticket to boot camp! :p
This is when American Idol was great. I grew up watching this show, and I would always die of laughter. When Simon left it went to crap and I haven’t watched it since. Now they do a screening process so you can’t even see these horrible people 😂
0:48 There is actually SOMETHING there. He would actually sound pretty good if he wasn't tone deaf and got some lessons. Same thing with 3:23. Too bad she looks utterly ridiculous though. Again with 7:34, but she has this nasally, high pitched thing she does with her voice that is incredibly annoying- almost like nails on a chalkboard. Lessons would teach her how to find a balance in her timbre and would fix that.
Darn,what was up with the dude at the end? He sounded like he was high on pills? Dude that did Gladys was so loud and I thought that my speakers were about to explode, lol. Dude with the braids sounded like Mickey Mouse having a stroke. Lol. I liked the MJ guy..He could sing
I think it's because they actually know they are deep down really shitty but a. Have too much pride to admit it and b. Have a "fake it til you make it" type attitude
I'm also surprised they let the second one sing for as long as they did. I'm also surprised all the dogs in the world didn't start howling. Also, I actually kinda liked that remix guy.
