<description>I never doubted that Taylor would skyrocket to the top of the charts.He is an outstanding singer and performer,and he is drop dead gorgeous.Taylor personifies all that a superstar should be.Once or twice in a lifetime do we see the likes of such a talent.I am once again excited about music because of Taylor Hicks,he has lit a fire in the soul of America and I thank him for that.In my mind music is medicine for the soul and is the best form of entertainment.Taylor we love you and wish you all the best.

<description>For the first time in a long time I feel the music when Taylor sings.I cant get enough of this man,he makes me happy when I see him and hear him.My day is not complete until I have my Taylor fix,he is intoxicating.Taylors appeal is with all ages and that will make him a superstar

<description>I just can&#039;t get enough of Taylor Hicks and his nubmer one single, I need to hear it at least once each day.  Taylor gets into each song completely and music comes from his soul.  Thank God Taylor you asked for that flight ticket to LA to get on the American Idol.  I have a feeling your going to have a lot of fans of all ages young and old.  I can&#039;t wait to hear, more and buy more.

<description>Taylor Hicks grew on me while on American Idol and I think he is a real star in the making with a long career ahead of him.  The publishers of People magazine don&#039;t take risks - they go with sure things - and by putting Taylor on their cover of Hottest Bachelors issue they made a statement about his prospects that others of us have known about for some time.  It&#039;s been extremely exciting to watch his memorphosis from struggling musician with faith in himself to winner of American Idol (a tough show to win let&#039;s face it - 30,000 to 1 odds), cover boy, the face and voice of a major national ad campaign for Ford, and everything else.  And as Jay Leno said, &quot;it couldn&#039;t happen to a nicer guy...&quot;

<description>I love your reviews of Taylor. You approach his music and career with elegance. Thank You!!

I am not a joiner, either. But after hearing this man sing Sam Cooke during the Idol auditions, I tuned in every week to see &quot;what happened to the guy with the grey hair...&quot; Then I knew his name. And then I followed his music. I never thought he would win, because I thought he was too original and talented for the general public to appreciate. And then he won. Then I wondered if his music would sell, he is not exactly mainstream. And his single went number one. I have bought his CD, Under the Radar, his single the day it came out, and I have downloaded every song I can find of his on the web, I listen to his soothing soulful voice everyday. I guess I am a SoulPatroller. Groove on, Soul Man.

<description>Nancy, Carol, so nice to get a coherent response! What is is about Hicks that sometimes brings out the &quot;strange&quot; in cyber realms. Sheesh. Good to stay within topic. ;)

<description>Taylor Hicks is the most amazing performer I have ever seen.  Did you see him on the Jay Leno show this past Thurs.?  He was so natural and has a great sense of humor.  He has it all and he doesn&#039;t even realize how wonderful he is I don&#039;t think.  I just love his voice and the fact that he is a looker is a plus to that voice, and personality.  He is so grateful for everything and very intelligent and thanks his fans every chance he gets.  Thanks for this great article.

<description>II&#039;ve been around awhile and know a little
something about music. I never thought in my
llife that I would see another artist in the
 same class as Ray Charles. I simply cannot
believe it but it happened. Before i died
another one came along and his name is Taylor
Hicks. And he turned up on American Idol?
You&#039;ve got to be kidding.

<description>When can we (I)stop hearing about the heroics of the Soulpatrolman? Good Lord in heaven, if I get a shirt that has his picture on it and says SOULPATROLMAN can I get laid anytime ever or what?  I thought the phrase &quot;Over the Moon&#039; meant you&#039;d eventually get over it, but guess not baby.  Nice article. Groove on - with your bad self.

Saw Reality....____ dot com. too. Use your own name sometime you silly wench. Let me call you &quot;Alias&quot;.

Just f.y.i. hey, heard Washington - something or other was gonna run it...
But bottomline do I have to wear the shirt? Lord.
Knew you&#039;d check this *smooch* infiltrating your space.
