Poor Joy.
What a voice. A true gospel diva in every sense of the word.

According to the Asian Idol website, Delon Thamrin (runner-up to Joy Destiny Tobing) is in contention to represent Indonesia. That is
completely unfair because he did NOT win. I just hope Rini gets the spot.

Yeah I read that too. I understand that there were some contractual disagreements between Tobing and Idol, but that's not a reason to use the runner-up to
represent the country. I don't know how anyone else feels, but I certainly don't think Joy's successors were ever to her level, not even Rini.
As it stands, I think Jaclyn Victor is the person to beat. But I'm hoping for a Phuong Vy surprise win! I've only heard her sing Vietnamese songs, certainly songs I don't understand, but I love her attitude, her power, and her singing mannerisms. Does anyone have a clip of her singing something in english (if she ever sang a song in english)? |

Delon has been the defacto winner of the first season since the second season. The shit with Joy went down in between.

Jaclyn Victor FTW!
I wish Taufik was in it too, I love Taufik. |

Indonesia's preliminary competition with the winners and Delon took place last weekend. These were the English songs that they sang:
Delon Thamrin - "Broken Vow" by Josh Groban Mike Mohede - "I Believe I Can Fly" by R. Kelly Ihsan Tarore - "Angels" by Robbie Williams Rini Wulandari - "Crazy In Love" by Beyoncé Link to the Indonesian songs Frankly, I'm underwhelmed by this bunch. Delon and Mike can sing but are pretty boring. Rini is rather thin-voiced. Ihsan just plain sucks. I still like Rini the best in terms of overall package. She was much better in the Indonesian song, but "Crazy In Love" was too big and too fast and totally consumed her. That was a very Jasmine Trias-like performance. She needs to stop trying to belt out songs outside her limited range. Joy clearly owns them all. I can safely say that Indonesia's not going to win this.

Wow great posts DC.
I hate that Beyonce song. But I thought Rini's performance was the most entertaining and memorable out of the four. Hope she gets it! |

I apologize for the two consecutive posts but...
According to wikipedia, Mike Mohede is now the Indonesian Idol representative. I tried confirming it on the Asian Idol official site, but there doesn't seem to be any updates. Is there anyone out there who followed the results show? I'm a little curious as to how it played out. |

In all fairness... all the performances were steaming hot pieces of shit (except for one of two)
eta : and I agree with DeSte.. I personally thought Mike did the best overall.. although that's not saying much really

I generally find Mike boring and wish he sang something different than that same song again, but I thought he was the best.

Why is it a spoiler? It's already been announced.
Hady had NO business winning. It was because of the stupid double vote system - people were voting for him because he didn't seem like a threat. |

That's what I thought. He shouldn't even be the representative from Singapore.

Taufik > Hady
Hady's girl fans from Singapore must be voting really hard then. They must be so proud that their idol won Asian Idle. |

I"m kinda glad that he won, because I dissapprove this show so much
Mike from Indo being last is very funny How ironic the largest country (Indonesia) ended up on last place, while really small country like Singapore is the top vote getter |
