    If this kid was on a Country American Idol show, you'd have never heard of him.

    He's a novelty act -- boy country singer -- for this show. That's why he's doing "well." You won't hear much from him again after this. Funny they didn't show much of the Josh Turner clip singing with him -- there's a real country singer that would embarrass this kid off the stage.

      BTW Capy, I'm not about to defend country music, but have you listened to some of the pop/R&B shit on the radio these days? Every time I think we sink to a new low in popular music, something worse comes along.

          All the little girls who sit at home and watch this are voting for Scotty. Kid could probably pull a lot of ass but will turn out to be gay or something.

            NoCoin, that is a FANTASTIC point, man! I've had to fast-forward through every guest that Idol has had on to perform their "hit" on the Thursday shows. And those "brand new videos" they've recently shown by J-Lo and Beyonce and whoever are absolute drivel -- utterly horrendous non-music.

            So you're right, it's not just country that is junk; it seems we've arrived at a time when popular music is all dumbed down (both compositionally and lyrically, but I mostly mean compositionally -- the music itself) so much that it's nothing short of a crime against man.

            What's the biggest SHAME is that there remains TONS of great music out there, in all genres!! (though I still exclude country, sorry) ... but most people will never hear it if they don't dig deeper than the big radio stations and American Idol.

            Still, there was a time when even the most POPULAR, Top 40 music was actually pretty solid, there were people writing great songs. There were actual musicians making music. In all genres. I don't know how we got to this point really.
