Why I like American Idol I know it's kind of a cheesy show, but I still like it. I really enjoy listening to people sing, especially when they are able to move me to tears. A few of the singers always do when I am watching that show. I so appreciate vocal ability. It's a gift from God, I think. It's a way for the spirit to communicate. I think that I secretly wish that I was on American Idol. I don't think I could handle it, though. I do like to sing, but have no voice training and my only practice is when I am alone. I sing a lot around other people, too... but, not with the full force of my voice because I am not confident enough. Singing takes me away from this world.
