Amber, Candice, Kree >
Angie can leave with her squirrel face, and Janelle can go back to milking cows and having porridge out on the praries or whatever the ****.

Exactly. Both when she is singing and when she is not.

She scares me. Her stare scares me. I don't get how the judges give Angie so much **** about "not showing emotion" and "not being passionate" and praise Kree at the same time  Besides she's been doing THE EXACT SAME THING since week 1.

at everyone spewing out whatever they can to discredit the frontrunner.
ANYWAY, Angie is too simple to make it in mainstream pop. If she does anything, she'll be doomed to Christian radio and charts as Colton Dixon is (not that she'd mind that). Janelle is relatively boring and is too similar to Lauren Alaina to go anywhere.
I feel like Amber could have success, but I honestly think she'd be better off NOT winning—if she is given the time (and the contract) to make a good urban/R&B record, I think urban radio would like her. She's obviously got the look. I don't know what Candice could do, maybe make an Adele-ish soul/R&B/AC record. I don't think she'd be a "star."
Kree is the only one who is different enough to make a splash in her target market. Her tone is gorgeous, recognizable, and even with the extra pounds she's stunning. Imagine if she lost the weight (see the pictures someone recently posted). Tell me you're not looking at a future country success. The most convincing thing about her however is that she's clearly ready for the career.

I don't know why but I see Kree gaining a more cult type/alternative country following than garnering mainstream or crossover country success.

Although Kree's talking to Angels it is Angie who has got a "Halo." #americanidol

Guess we can expect to hear that same hollow belt of hers.

Which is exactly why I do not give the slightest fraction of a ****. I loathe that entire genre.
I don't HATE Kree, I actually can stand to watch her performances, unlike Janelle's. And every time I do, I am waiting for her to do something to WOW me. She never does. Her voice is pleasant, but it's nothing that would make you go OH, HEY, WHO IS THIS if you heard her on the radio or something.
Candice on the other hand... I don't even REMEMBER her pre-Hollywood. She was just another random contestant to me until she did I Who Have Nothing. I was just sitting there watching, not paying too much attention but then I was like WHAT. IS. THIS. and was on the edge of my seat with goosebumps.
Kree has yet to outperform Candice. All of them have yet to outperform her.
Then there's Angie, who I remember from DAY ****ING ONE of the show because HER VOICE is something that made me take notice from the FIRST FEW NOTES OF HER AUDITION. She has a unique, noticable voice that stands out, and I can tell from her personality that the kind of music she would make would smash, and THAT is why she will most likely have the most success out of anyone from this season, regardless of how the rest of the season plays out.
Kree's voice is just dull. It doesn't pop. I remember something being said about how she's been in Nashville singing demos for country singers for a while. Don't you think there's a REASON she's been relegated to that? If she was SO GREAT, someone would have given her a chance to do her own thing by now. She has a lack of personality and a lack of ability to emote that make her not good enough to be a star, even though her voice is good enough that she can still land a job singing within the industry.

There's a reason why Kree is at the top of the pack. She doesn't have to emote to give an amazing performance because her voice is just that good. She can literally pick up a song, grab the mic, and just sing it and slay the thing. Whereas some of the other girls, specifically Amber, Janelle and especially Angie, they HAVE to emote to give an amazing performance, because their voice isn't good enough to just sing without emotion. Emotion and theatrics and all of that are very good distractors, and those other girls need that. Without it, their performances just don't stack up.
Candice and Kree don't need to emote to slay. Their voices are just that good. Candice, however, does tend to emote well, which just makes her performances that much better. But if she didn't, she'd still be where she is because her voice is just that great.

Candice would KILL "If It's Over". KILL it. And from what she said about Lovesong, it would be right up her ally too.

Carrie Underwood was a demo singer before idol, as well as Kelly. Nice try.
Kree outperforms Candice every week, except maybe last.

This is such a biased post. As if Kree was flawless. She's been doing the exact same thing for weeks. I didn't say Angie would be the best winner (Although she's one of my favorites) but i don't see how Kree is so "different" from any country artist right now

Not at all! I repeat and i will keep repeating cuz it's the obvious truth... The girl has been doing THE SAME EXACT THING for weeks. At least Candice has done uptempo, ballads, r&b and even a little bit of rock. Kree even sounded country on rock week.
