Guy Sebastian (album, American, members, performance, talent)

Hey everybody,
Im new here and I love music.
Has anyone here heard of Guy Sebastian? He was the first winner of
Australian Idol back in 2003 but he has come in leaps and bounds since
then and is about to release his first album in the US

I really dislike his music, although I did watch some of that Idol season and he seemed like a nice guy.

He is positively awful

I am a fan, he was interviewed last week on New York Radio and also did a live performance and they absolutely loved him, he has got a lot of American New Fans because of it.

I would not know a Guy Sebastian song if I heard it but I did read an interesting item on his Idol win. It was claimed that he won it with the vote of various Christian fundamentalist churches through the Hillsong organisation. Hillsong is a happy clappy style organisation and apparently urged it's members to vote for him and so they did in droves. Or is that flocks, sheep that they are

That is rubbish 4ZZZ he wasnt a member of Hillsong,I am not Christian neither are a lot of his fans.Looks like he is going to be a Big Star in the USA good on him.

No, I read a fair bit about that too.
Looked fairly sus.

Do people really believe today tonight and a current affair lol, I voted a lot and I do not go to Church lol as did a lot of my friends :-) Personally I think his success has proved he was a worthy winner, he is going strong 5 Years later and is now about to break the USA Market, John Mayer said he is an extraordinary talent :-)

That in itself is sad

What is sad? I do not understand? If everyone liked the same music it would be a dull world wouldnt it?
