I completely agree with the first sentence. However, I believe Arthur could've literally farted a song out of tune and he still would've made the finale.

I totally agree with this! I feel like if you're very popular from the get-go you could pretty much do anything and the votes would keep coming. I feel that now people vote mostly on who their favorite is, no matter how they did. However, I feel in the older seasons, most of the time, people voted based on who did well (correct me if I'm wrong).

Aw, Walker was one of my favorites of his season, but I can understand your comments. I liked Brandon, but did end up rather disappointed with his time on the live shows. I wasn't a fan of the others. 

 

 

Not a huge Catie fan, but I liked the others all somewhat. None my favorites of the season or anything, but I liked them.  I thought Shannon had a lot of potential, and absolutely loved Jeremy's performance of "I Know You Won't."   

 

 

MacKenzie was one of my favorites his season and Sanjaya is an Idol legend  but don't care so much for the others.  A lot of your comments in this set cracked me up! About Lil: "unable to set her Idol GPS correctly."  Yikes. I do remember her seeming like such a front runner and then... she wasn't.  LOL about Jacob: "His bad performances could be used in interrogations"  But YESS I was hoping you'd mention the needing to look in the mirror comment!   It's what I always think about when I think of him. Hilarious. And LOL "He started off as this shy kid who had a hard time projecting his voice on stage who eventually went on to become the biggest troll in Idol history. "  I love your Sanjaya write-up. He really does have a nice voice and brought truly iconic moments to the show.  

I haven't had a lot of ideas for the clues, but a couple things came to mind on these... 

• Big voice in a tiny body: Ramiele Malubay?
• May have been the inspiration behind the creation of a certain website: I'm thinking the website is VFTW but I don't know who inspired it... John Stevens?

Yay, a MacKenzie fan! I hope you're right about "big voice in a tiny body." I really don't want Hollie Cavanagh to be ranked this low...

I’d actually have put Sanjaya lower in the rankings, but it’s a good enough spot for him.

It’s good to want to be yourself, but you have to be adaptable and pick songs that can be arranged to fit your style and do justice to the original song in the first place.  Arthur Gunn failed to do that with “Take Me Home, Country Roads”, and had the coronavirus not shortened the season, mistakes like that one would probably have caused him to miss the finale.

Oh don't remind me about "Take Me Home, Country Roads"... I don't know if it would have caused him to miss the finale, but maybe...

@Crisis How often do you post the rankings?

MacKenzie: I absolutely agree he wanted to be himself. However, it doesn't necessarily make for an interesting performer, though it would be better outside of Idol. Glad you liked my Alex Preston comparison!

I'll agree to disagree for MacKenzie. I actually re-watched his performance of "Titanium," and while it was not the best cover of the song I've ever heard, it was nice to see that he adapted it to make it his own.

If I remember correctly, he made the mistake of arguing with Harry Connick, Jr.  And you really shouldn’t argue with any of the judges, even if they are acting like jerks.  All arguing with them does is make you look bad in the eyes of the voting audience.

I think this is what it was. Thank you for reminding me! Yeah, arguing with judges usually doesn't end well...

Big voice in a tiny body

I hope this isn't Hollie Cavanagh because I loved her and I think that would be too low.

150. Mikalah Gordon

149. MacKenzie Bourg

148. Lil Rounds

147. Jacob Lusk

146. Sanjaya Malakar

My thoughts on your rankings:

Mikalah Gordon- No comment.

MacKenzie Bourg- I really liked this guy. I thought him changing up the songs and performing originals proved that he wanted to be HIMSELF. (I guess you ranked him too low?) The Alex Preston comparison is perfect though!

Lil Rounds- I found it funny that you mentioned Adam, Danny, and Lil as who the producers wanted to win, and none of them did! (Well one came close...)

Jacob Lusk- I agree with you. It was either really good or really bad for me. 

Sanjaya Malakar- No comment. 

@Crisis When I saw you posted I got so excited because I thought you posted the rankings...

It's important to look at why certain contestants who were great on the show - but tank afterwards.  Likewise, it's worthwhile to acknowledge contestants who may not have been great at karaoke covers - but manage to launch good careers afterwards.   And it's ultimately the latter that counts.

I totally understand your point. In the end, the ones who find success really are the great ones. As I am new to IDF, I was unaware of the favoritism of belters. Personally, I really liked Phillip Phillips because he showed what mattered. He didn't care about the glam, he just wanted to deliver the music. He was probably more likable and more relatable than Jessica.

Catie is just under rated on IDF.  But IDF is all about baby divas, belters.  Not artists, musicians or those that are unique.  I already know that Alejandro and Arthur will be rated very low.  And someone like Jessica Sanchez will be very high, even though her post show career sucks.

 

 

 

These rankings specifically deal with the contestant's performance on the show. Therefore, Jessica's post-show career will not matter. Don't take this the wrong way though, I loved Catie Turner. She was very fun, and had the best artistry out of everyone that season!

Maybe it wasn't a good idea to lecture voters prior to performing...

Wait, is this Quentin Alexander? I feel like he had an issue with Joey Cook's elimination and he was then eliminated the week after.

What to expect for the next set:

• Talk about a crash and burn...
• Said to share similarities to a television character
• The man, the myth, the legend
• Team Cee-Lo
• Maybe it wasn't a good idea to lecture voters prior to performing...

As to the hints, I have absolutely no clue!  

Continued thoughts on your rankings:

Tim Urban- no comment

Tristan McIntosh- I thought that she was the best out of the teens that were on that season. 

Ace Young- no comment

Chris Richardson- no comment

Constantine Maroulis- I was surprised to see him return as a duet partner (I think?) in season 15, Bohemian Rhapsody was very good though!

Scott Savol- no comment

Jon Peter Lewis- no comment

Chris Eligh- no comment

EJ Day- no comment

Danny Gokey- no comment

Matthew Rogers-no comment

Ashton Jones- She had personality, which was good, but I still think that Kendra or Robbie were more deserving of her slot as a wildcard. 

Jermaine Jones- I didn't really like his personality, it was just too weird for me, sorry... However, I  agree, I didn't like how the show handled his disqualification. 

MK Nobilette- Pretty voice, poor execution as the show went on (thank goodness they didn't save her). 

Julia DeMato- no comment

Scott MacIntyre- no comment

Karen Rodriguez- I loved her performance of Hero! She truly made it her own. (Maybe you put her too low?)

Jasmine Murray- no comment

Maddie Walker- I loved her in Season 14! She was very fun and exciting to watch. However, looking back, she isn't as good as I thought!

Leah LaBelle- I totally agree with your stance on her death... It's not worth dying for such a careless mistake... 

Ada Vox- He had a strong voice but America wasn't a fan from the beginning. After Circle of Life, there was no recovering... 

Walker Burroughs- I agree with you on him. I actually liked him last season. However, I remember none of his performances...

Kristen O'Connor- I completely agree. She tackled songs too big for her...

Lacey Brown- no comment

Brandon Rogers- no comment

Charles Grigsby- no comment

Shannon Magrane- I really liked her performance of Go Light Your World. However, it spiraled out of control after that. I remember how Erika Van Pelt gave an inconsiderate (in my opinion) victory dance, ignoring the fact that Shannon had to sing for her life in the competition. 

Jorge Nuñez- no comment

Jeremy Rosado- Definitely deserving of the Wild Card pick. However, I am so thankful that they saved Elise instead. 

Catie Turner- Very fun, great personality. I liked her performances but I wouldn't call myself a fan. I guess she was having a Manic Sunday that night! 

 

I'm new here so I just saw this... If I say "no comment" then I probably haven't watched their season.

 

Season 18: This list is really just your opinion, but personally I wouldn't have ranked Jovin as high as you did. I also think you ranked Francisco Martin too low. My personal top 5 includes Francisco Martin (most consistent), Makayla Phillips (best female contestant that season- maybe my favorite of the season), Jonny West (true artist), Julia Gargano (I love her buttery voice), and Louis Knight (great, emotional performances.)

 

Lazaro Arbos- I still can't believe he came in sixth place... 

Jim Verraros- no comment

A.J. Gil- no comment

Daniel Seavey- I liked him during that season. However, it seemed to me that he didn't have a very strong voice compared to everyone else. 

Gianna Isabella- For some reason I liked her during that season... weird... 

Heejun Han- He was very funny, however, I did not like how he treated the competition as a joke... 

Corey Clark- no comment

Curtis Finch, Jr.- no comment

Carmen Rasmusen- no comment

JAX- I actually liked her in her season. She seemed very fun to me. 

Gabby Barrett- I agree to disagree on this one. She was one of my favorites from Season 16. I'm very happy with her recent success as well! 

Cade Foehner- I don't remember anything from him... 

Kevin Covais- no comment

Lee Jean- I watched his entire season and I have no clue who he is... 

Andrew Garcia- no comment

Dexter Roberts- very boring except for One Mississippi, which I enjoyed.

Stefano Langone- I think you ranked him too low... I also feel bad for the backlash he received after Pia's elimination. It's good to see that they're still friends. 

 

I'll finish tomorrow...
