Wait For You

I really do have to protest!!

I did find Elliott Yamin interesting. It was inspiring to hear of his disabilities and his struggle to improve his singing abilities despite his lack of perfect hearing.

However, I didn't think he had the range, or the pleasant voice that others had. No offense to him or any of his fans, but I believe he was helped by the sympathy vote.

That said, I had high hopes for a single from him. Even when I first heard "Wait For You", I decided to listen to it a few times before dismissing it. I can't help it - I don't care for it! I know he is a product of American Idol, so the top pop stations are probably contractually obligated to play any & all music by those who ran the gauntlet. I suppose they are entitled to some recognition, but come one - please make more of an effort!
*sigh*
The finger snapping, the whiny-sounding lyrics, the can't-catch-his-breath voice - I almost think it's an attempt at comedy. Why would he wait for someone who so obviously doesn't want him around?
Perhaps I am missing something, but at least he is lucky to have such obvious signs from his crush (or ex, I can't figure that out, either).
Oh yeah, take all this with a grain of salt - I still downloaded it :)

Okay, enough ranting :) Had to blow off a bit of steam - this week has been terribly busy & frustrating. Time to feed critters.
