Even though I'm in the UK I've always thought that American Idol is much better than the similar shows that Simon Cowell does over here. This is mainly because someone like Crystal Bowersox, who is so very much my taste in music, is much more celebrated on those shows in the US. No way would anyone like her do well in the UK, and as for her great song choices, we would never hear them. It sucks. I love Crystal. Her voice is incredible!
Farmer's Daughter (the album) is patchy though, but the title track is awesome. The tracks she has written herself (especially Speak Now) are all great and so just wait for album number 2 when she really gets going...
