    I remember World Idol so clearly. Of course Kelly was going to win, she's astonishingly talented. And then this sweet, magical little man from Norway gets up to sing. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I remember voting for him and hoping people wouldn't be shallow - that their votes would be based on talent, not looks or geography. I was BEYOND THRILLED when Kurt won. Still my favourite male vocalist of all time.

If only I can find that clip somewhere in KZread. And later, I see this part that he won and his singing was literally out of this world!!! Made me appreciate that it's all about talent and how you work, whether your attractivr or not.

    I remember this so well. Kurt was amazing and I am very certain that because he won there hasn't been another World Idol. Kelly Clarkson was marketed like crazy back then and coming in second to a Norwegian plumber must've pissed off her management (i.e. Cowell) big time! But that's what you get for letting an audience vote... ;-)
