World Idol, you know you love it!

[Mercator]

I'm not sure if it aired already where you live, but it aired on Christmas Eve over here in Holland. On New Year's Day the winners will be announced on a second show.

I don't think I need to explain any more. Vote for the Apolyton Idol!

[Pekka]

I think we have our own Idol in what.. few weeks?

[Adagio]

Doesn't sound like anything I'd like to hear anything about




Any cute girls in the show?

/me takes a look at the list

...doesn't sound like it

[Mercator]

Kelly Clarkson's cute...

In Holland the second series started a few weeks ago.

But well, World Idol is the competition between last year's winners, and since it's being broadcast in lotsa places around the world...

Of course, there's very little of Apolyton's favourite music genre in it (i.e. classic rock), and I'm sure everyone pretends to despise Pop Idol. But since there are plenty of Apolytoners with wives, girlfriends and sisters, there must at least be some who will see this... Damn you!

There 's Nirvana it, The Doors, U2, Aerosmith! Aargh... You know you love it! (please)

Well, it'll air in a few hours in the US.

MinghosQ and the Urban Rangers better start practicing their performance of Banana.

you know, just for a second, I looked at your last entry, and said "NO WAY. THIS IS HILLARIOUS". It took me about 4 seconds to realize this was the banana option. I probably should get some sleep.

I actually missed it... I was looking forward to it... but I decided to watch 'Seabiscuit' on DVD instead .

I'm not sure if I could have made it any more obvious... So yes, you probably should go to sleep.

It is a funny banana option.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Actually I guess I didn't miss it .

Just saw Clarkson. Canada was kinda harsh and then US (Simon) just nailed Canada down. Damn.

[Mercator]

So I guess we're the only ones who saw it. ...

The Polish judge was so unfunny, it was funny again.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Norway was AWESOME!!! Great voice, but definetly looks like a plummer. Wonder if the looks will hurt him (or will people rally around him).

[Mercator]

Unfortunately I didn't really hear much of him. He was just after the commercial break, and my sister zapped around a little too long. We came back right when he stepped up to the judges. I did hear a few seconds when they showed them all at the end with the phonenumbers to call.

Those few seconds definitely sounded good, definitely better than a few others (e.g. Germany), but I can't really say whether it surpassed the other top ones (e.g. Australia).

It's really really sad but our whole family watched it, and it sucked.

If the Norway dude looked better, he'd be a super-star .

and the winner is: Kurt Nilsen from Norway
