He sounds fantastic recorded. Just put the guy on the radio already! :) Chris Sligh and Richardson sound much better than I thought they would as well. Blake’s two downloads are awesome.

I love that they made this available. My girls are loving it too, b/c everytime we get in the car, my youngest says I wanna listen to Blake. :) His voice is amazing. I'm not getting the people that think he can't sing. Does anyone know if the videos are compatible with iPods? It says the mp3's are, but doesn't say that on the videos.

There's just an incredible warmth to his recorded voice. I'm ashamed to admit it, but Diana Ross was right--Haley's voice is incredible recorded and Missing You could go on the radio right now. However, Blakes' still my Daddy...

It seems the guys are the only ones with the talent and/or guts to do this. I hate to quote Randy, but I want more of that "YO!" factor!

I also downloaded Sanjaya's Ain't No Mountain and You Really Got Me, Chris R Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying, and Stephanie's You Don't Have to Say You Love Me. They all sound great! What a great idea this was- AI makes a bundle on the downloads (I hope the kids get a cut of the revenue from this), it's a great marketing tool, they get a sense of how the kids sound in a recording studio, and they keep the fans happy. Win Win Win! Sarah, I love Blake’s Time of the Season, as well as Chris S.’s She’s Not There.

Just further proof that he has monstrous potential when it comes to radio play and top 40 hits. Can't wait to see what he sings this week in the top 40 genre and if he knocks it out of the park.

It gives you a real sense of how these idols will sound on cd, since they are studio recordings using studio tools to brighten and enhance the vocals, and in most cases sound a whole lot better than the tv performances. I wonder who is producing these mp3's, and how much time they are allowed to put into them as far as retakes and post production? Thanks for the head’s up on the downloads.

I liked the <em>idea</em> of it and what he was trying to do (effectively a mashup) but it felt to me as if it could have used more time to germinate. Turns out that must have been a function of truncating it to 90 seconds or so because the full version laid all my qualms to rest. It is truly a "Must Download" song.

Nashville Star has been doing the very same thing, via iTunes. It's a great idea and well worth the investment if you really like a particular performance. I just downloaded Jordin's "I Who Have Nothing". It's fabulous quality. Very interesting! Nashville Star has been doing the very same thing, via iTunes.

I'm tempted to buy Chris S's as well. I have several live ones from last season and would have loved to have this option then. I think it's a great idea because with the compilation album, your favorite will only have one song. This must add more work for everyone, though. I got Blake’s Time of the Season and love it.

Maybe it's sort of a trial run for the compilation CD - like, maybe the top-selling track for each finalist will be the one that goes on the CD. I love that they’re offering these.

Just thought maybe the album will be the special 'charity' performances. I wonder with these downloads being made available whether they will bother with a CD.
