    I have only heard both of these ladies on a local FM morning show. I would say Fantasia. However, at a taping of the Ryan Seacrest show at the end of April, I heard one of the ladies that was voted off (can't remember her name) and I thought of the three I mention here, she was by far the most talented.

    Fantasia is amazing. Mind bogglingly amazing, so much power, loved it when she was working it w/ the choir. Taht being said, she could do w/ out what i see as a modern problem w/ modern soul music, all the yeahyeahhhyeah vibrato BS, I guess people like that , but I see it over used and a crutch. Waht happened to honest R and B?

    Yes, I don't like that either. Good description.

    After watching it all season guess what. ..

    I had a meeting that I could not miss last night (not J.W. meeting either) and you guessed it. The meeting went late and I missed it... Darn!... I feel ripped off.

    Anyways I hope to see the results show tonight.

    My vote is for Fantasia...

    sincerely

    diana all the way.....but i suppose y'all new i felt that way

    fantasia does nothing for me, except want to mute the tv. i can hear that grating whine when she sings and speaks. it cuts through to the bone and grates like fingernails on a chalk board.

    i think her voice sounds like aunt esther on sanford and son.

    Fantasia reminds me of Tina Turner. She definitely got my vote. I love Diana, though. I was sorry she had some trouble last night, because she's such a sweet girl I want her to do well.

    I hope it's a close race!

    Wow...what was up with Simon tonight? I could only guess. I hate showbusiness/politics too.

    The better singers were already voted off by the 'Mercan public...

    I prefer my vocalists to sing in tune no matter what style of music they sing.

    There's dead zones on every stage and if you don't have the experience and ear to recoup when you lose it, you need more experience singing live, all there is to it.

    I f Diana was a formally trained singer, she would be listening for her voice to bounce back from the room instead of relying on earphones. Fanatasia being three years older probably has that much more experience.

    I suppose Fantasia does have a quite the whine [she was screaming tonight!] but, I know it's her. And like any other distinguishable trademarks, I suppose that's all that really counts. It sure got you guys talking about her whine [you know, bad press is still good press].

    Diana will develop a style that actually stands out from the crowd. I'd love to hear her when she's 18. We'll probably hear more from her a lot sooner. Same holds true for most of the better singers on that show...

    gespro of the 'yeah go ahead and talk to me about music business' class

    I was pretty sure Fantasia would win it. Ryan Seacrest said earlier today that the winner won by 1%. That isn't much is it?

    It will be interesting to see how their careers go now. The next American Idol is a long ways off.
