Bobby Flynn enters the Top 12 of Australian Idol

August 30th 2006 10:02
WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED ON IDOL?

That FREAK named Bobby Flynn has made it through to the top 12. This has to be a joke. He creeps me out, and last night’s song choice didn’t convince me. Sure, we need a bit of variety in the bunch but HIM??? What???

Well Marcia was over the moon, I bet Mark and Kyle made a nice little mess in their pants and were glad they were sitting down at the time that happened. Bobby is quite unusual, another Jack Johnson/Pete Murray but argh…I think I’m gonna have nightmares.

Here's his initial audition tape courtesy of You Tube...




His voice is smooth, mellow, and hit the right notes. For me, it just went downhill from there. Fellow readers may disagree and think that Bobby is the bomb, but think about the themes they are going to be put through every week. Can you see him doing the following…

Dance? No.

Rock? No.

70s? Maybe. He’s got the hair so far.

80s? No.

Pop songs? Probably not.

I can see this guy tweaking any song into his own, creepy rendition that’s sure to scare the pants off me (and not in the suggestive way mind you) and avoid Idol until the day he gets voted off.

Argh, I’m getting shivers just thinking about his little performance snippet last night. Creepy as.

I don't have an issue with them having a crack, and no I wouldn't do it cos it's not my kind of thing - I prefer to work behind the scenes than to lose my anonymity on the screen.

The whole point of Idol is to find someone to sell to the mass market and so far they've only succeeded with Guy and Shannon from series 1. Everyone else has dropped off like flies except for them and the Young Divas.

bobby is an absolute talent

unique and individual he will go far. unlike every other of the 12 idols, music runs through bobbys bones, this is not something which can be taught, or passed on from person to person, this is a personal trait which you are born with.

Bobby is absolutely awesome, he will be able to sing pop and disco songs. Just you wait and see what he has hidden up his sleave.

Obviously you don't know what musical talent is when you see it. Bobby is miles ahead of the rest, its a shame this show is done on popularity rather then talent as "pop" music will just keep on getting flooded with lame wanna be's that last 6 months if they are lucky. Ie most australian idols

He sure is miles ahead but really in the eyes of the judges, they want someone who can capture the mass market, who are versatile with their style. So far, I don't see that in Bobby. One perfect example is Casey Donovan amid rumours she was dropped from Sony/BMG because she couldn't get enough sales.

Last night, Bobby perfomed one of the most amazing renditions of Superfreak I have ever heard. From what was implied on Idol last night, he arranged the version.
One way or another, this young man is either a music or a marketing superfreak.

Musical talents aside, just being an original in idol (remember the forgettable Lee Harding last year, not so original but just a little different from the others) takes one very far in that competition.

Bobby, however has the musical know-how to match his creativity.

My prediction, much to the horror of those wanting him and his unusual look out, is that this man will be an international success.

BOBBY...FULLY GOOD!!!
I went to the same Uni as Bobby Flynn and he use to sit on the grass with his crew and sing on breaks and during special events. I recorded him on my mobile! He really blows me away. You really have to hear him live or in the same area, then I'm sure you'd love him too! I have never heard a voice like his, it's beautiful. Totally unique, total individual.One of a kind!

bobby flynn is amazing! I've never been a celebrity fanatic cause i rekn its really corny but it is an exception for bobby. Im just so so so disappointed he's gone . Ha now i have no motive to watch aussie idol no matter how hot dean is. But on a more positive out look he's still on tonight's original edipsode, so you can see that's just how great he is, being invited for this even if he is out .

oh how i just wish he comes out with a cd soon and then a concert. how nice would that be?
