Sanjaya has landed on a top 12 spot on idol. Many where puzzled how this happened, especially noting that it was Sundance who'd been there on the last two to choose from -I guess that added much to the question. Before that a much better AJ Tabaldo was ousted.
The judges dont like him, but a big part of the public must be loving him really. His stay in idol is proof to that..
Personally, I think he's nice, but I think his vocal power isnt enough to be on idol..
What do you feel about him???

Sanjaya seems to really be "in over his head," at this point. For my money, "his youth is showing." Some 17-year olds have a lot of presence and maturity-- both of voice, and of personality-- but he just doesn't. He has a reasonable voice in there, somewhere, but it seems to me like he needs a few more years to "mature" before he can be a truly viable contestant... maybe at 21-23, he'd be better.
Maybe I'm a cynic, but I only believe he's still there because he's got a lock on the "12-year old girl vote" as well as (perhaps) a "patriotic" vote from the Indian population in the US. As Simon keeps saying "this is a SINGING competition," and he sure isn't there because of his voice.

My feelings would have to be just like Denmarkguy put it. I think he does have a reasonable voice too but he needs much more experience before he could be an american idol winner. I also believe he's there because of certain people voting for him also like denmarkguy explained.

Well votefortheworst.com is trying to get people ot vote for him, just to let him keep humiliating himself. I don't know why he hasn't quit yet, the judges are being nothing but nasty to him, and if he's smart he'll figure out whats going on. Dialidol.com says he's in the top 3.

Personally I think he is terrible! He's a good kid-- But he can't sing.. I think he should have been ousted before his sister-- Shame on the judges for putting him into Hollywood-- And this is American Idol so it is fan vote-- He must have a lot of fans-- Otherwise he'd have been gone long before the final 12. I think he will go tonight!

I agree Sanjaya's singing talent is not that good. But then he is a crowd puller, he knows how to attract people. In fact I too felt sad when he was sent out. I wish he improves his talent in future and win the race.

His stay in Idol is proof that many people vote not based on talent. He just is not mature enough to be there. He has to learn to project his voice and loosen up when performing. He is in way over his head and even the worst of the rest are way better than him.
