They’d have to have a method that didn’t involve people making choices because people make stupid choices. It would always have to be like a certain group of songs like only #1 hits or only songs from 1994 or something random like that. I don’t see any other way it could work.

The judges could pick. Or people could vote online which ones they like the best out of say 50 songs.

How do they pick the 12 (or whatever) songs?

I have an idea for the song choices. Limit the songs to the number of contestants. (Top 12 gets to pick out of 12 songs.) Let the person who has the most votes pick first. Then the one with the second most votes picks, and so on and so forth. That way they will actually have decent songs (current songs) and will actually sing their heart out each week for the top picks for the next week. The first week they’ll have to draw the order, but from then on the audience gets to pick. I like it!

Like I said, I wish him well, maybe with a few years exp and some guidance he'll be the next Jack Johnson, which wouldn't be bad at all. I'm just not sold yet, but we'll see. Scotty Dubs last blog post..Inked

La Times agrees with me

And so we bid farewell to Jason Castro, “American Idol’s” first hippy finalist. With his piercing eyes, goofy remarks, perpetual smile and unmistakable sweet nature, he was a contestant who was impossible not to like. While his musical background was more limited than many of the others, he nonetheless had some star-making musical moments and was the sort of genuine find for whom this season will be remembered. Judging from the avalanche of e-mail I have received from his Dreadhead fan club in the past few weeks, Castro has the most ardent of fan bases which will without a doubt stay with him as he moves into his post-”Idol” career. Whether through his music or his personality, Castro always brought a bit of fun to the “Idol” stage, was never just filler, and for that we wish him well and treasure the time we’ve shared in the Idoldome.”
