Another Filipina makes it to the American Idol but I think she is not that good because she sounds like any other female singer ( Sarah, Rachel, Karylle, etc) here in the Philippines. I may be desensitized with all the songs I've been hearing from the radio. Especially when she sang "You Don't Have to Love Me", reminds me of Lani Misalucha without knowing that she really likes Lani.
I have to agree that she has an outstanding performance. Now I am wondering what will be the next song that she is going to sing? What voice range? Can she do pop? Is she a versatile singer or can she sing a Christina Aguilera song? How about fast song? She needs to practice and not confine herself with the songs she is familiar with.

Recently watched the American Idol and this contestant caught my fancy, he speaks and looks like a Filipino. I haven't seen his name yet. But I can tell that he is a Filipino, he has that sound, Tagalog sound that you and me are familiar with. He wears this costume that he looks like a bird, so some call him the "Birdman".
I do not know what motivates him to join, maybe he wants to be famous.
In fact he is already famous, he already has his own website. They are selling shirts already. Another one of instant celebrity.
