User Reviews

Hmm

Australian Idol, The One Show That Was Once On Australian Television That Shows Just How Much We Are Prepared To Listen To America's Taste And Copy It, I Won't Complain Whenever We Become Independent Its Visa Versa.

I Just Have To Ask One Thing, Who Has Actually Been On This Show? I Am Trying To Figure That Out "Who Has Become Famous In Australia Yet Alone Worldwide Off This Show?" At Least With Ida Madsen From Denmark's X-Factor Her Record Has Gone To #1 In That Country And With Good Reason, In This People Sang And Won Then They Had To Deal With "Who Are You Again? I Think I've Seen You Before?" I Know No Artist Will Stand The Test Of Time(Thats Right, None.) But You Expect Someone To Last More Than Overnight.

Overall If You Want Good Australian Talent I Suggest Listening To The Metal Band "Sick Puppies", Those Guys Are Fantastic.
