According to this site, the Idols are releasing a Top 10 album at Wal-Mart. Have to admit they didn’t pick my favorite songs from the season but it’ll be good to see Danny on shelves!
via Season 8 Top 10 Idols Releasing Album | American Idol Fan Site | Who got voted off American Idol.
Amy, I agree with you that these tracks aren’t my favorites either. I would have chosen something else for Danny’s song. Do the Idols get any kind of compensation for this new album, does anybody know?
I agree no my favorite choices especially for Danny. Not sure how successful that project will be. I hope Danny updates us this week regarding his talk with the record company he met with last week.
They really seem to have it out for Danny. He has so many other songs that were awesome and they choose this one!
The album sounds like a dud. I can make a better one with the same money just downloading my favs oops sorry I already have!!!
Even Kris had better songs. When did #1 and #2 perform the same song? Is that new?
I seriously hope Danny is signed soon because I am really looking forward to his first CD.
im buying this!! , do you know when its comming out?
Pretty sure it’s June 30
Hello gokey girls!—- I believe our lovely Danny probably will be tweeting less due to a lot of the negative feedback on twitter. At this time, his behavior is appropriate because he has to put a lot of his energy into his rehearsal and maintaining a positive disposition/attitude. Unfortunately, each time he opens his twitter, he has to face the onslaught of haters which can put a damper on his morale. I believe as his faithful fans, we must be patient, understanding and committed to the end. Danny will occasionally tweet us to let us know he is still connected to his fans (which he loves), but the frequency will be less. This is only for a season until he gains his momentum and has what he wants in place.
Did the idols pick the songs they wanted to sing or were they told what to sing? I would think that if they had a choice Danny would have sang another song, like, What hurts the Most or You are so beautiful. I also think they should all have two songs on this CD and not just Kris and Adam. It doesn’t seem fair, especially since Danny can out sing all of them.
I was curious about the same thing? the good news- danny’s song is second! where he should have been or the winner! I think thats great the haters if they could have put it out would have put him last.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Even though I like Stand By Me, I would have picked a different song for Danny. You Are So Beautiful or What Hurts The Most. Even the songs selected for the other idols are not their best songs. I wonder if the selections had more to do with approvals and maybe the songs that are on the album were the songs that they could get the fastest approval on. Whoever has rights to each song would have to approve it first.
yeah you could be right cheryl..I wonder what is happening with contracts for danny everyone is so silent about it!
cheryl – same. i would have picked something else. even though stand by me was amazing.
Stand by me is good I liked it- but it was not my favorite song danny did..but it grabs you too well everything danny does grabs you@
danny has not twittered in quite awhile but its probably good to keep the last twitter up awhile about adam and danny so everyone can see that they really are friends. I feel so bad he has all these haters on twitter..he just does not deserve this garbage!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
deb I have a feeling Danny won’t sign until after the tour. It may be that he is not going to sign with 19Entertainment and so they are not going to release him from his contract to sign with another record company until after the tour. If he were going to sign with 19Entertainment I think it would have happened already because they would have wanted him to start getting ready for his album, like Adam and Kris and Allison are doing. I don’t like that 19Entertainment has so much control over them. If 19 doesn’t want to sign an idol, they can hold them under their current contract for a long time. And my guess is they prevent them from signing with anyone else for as long as possible because 19 wants to release albums for the idols they do sign before any of the other idols get a chance to put out their albums with some other company. I think they must not want Danny putting out an Album at the same time that Kris or Allison or Adam unless they are the ones producing it, so they will just make him wait until after the tour to sign with someone else. I hope I am wrong about this because Danny said he wanted to put an album out before the end of the year and he probably would be very disappointed if 19 didn’t either sign him or release him to another record company.
FINALLY! The site is back up!!!!!! Just in time for me to get back to work
haha Hi Ladies!!
The collage is lookin good so far! I’m still waiting on some pictures, but I think it’s going to turn out really nice!
Cheryl — I agree.. I think we probably wont hear anything until after the tour. If danny really wants to have SHF and his music hand in hand, then he could be waiting for a deal that would allow that. 19E is all about making money.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Jenn As far as I know 19Entertainment has never done anything like what Danny is asking for. I doubt very much if they are willing to allow Danny to give a portion of the proceeds from record sales to his charitable organization. You are right, they are all about the money! Danny is going to have to sign with a record company that cares as much as he does about helping people. He may have to go independent. I found it curious that in one of the interviews that Danny did he said something about people selling out. It made me wonder if in his talks with 19Entertainmnet they have been pushing him to not include SHF in the deal, or, they are trying to steer him into a genre he is not as comfortable with.
All I can say is it’s truly 19′s loss if they don’t get Danny signed with them.
Also, I remember reading in an interview that Danny was asked if he could have chosen a different song at any time during the competition, would he? And he said he wouldn’t have sung Stand by Me….
But really, imho, most of the songs on this are less than thrilling…
Cheryl, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pic you are using. It really catches me off guard! WOW!
VC – really? danny said that.. i dont remember that. i thought stand by me was amazing. i loved it! not my fav of course but on of my top favs!!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I think Danny should sign with Atlantic records. They signed Jason Castro, I believe Clay Aiken is with them as well. Atlantic records does a lot of Charitable giving, so they might be willing to work with Danny on arranging a deal that includes SHF.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
vc that pic is my absolute favorite of Danny. There is something about the look in his eyes. Very seductive and flirty.
I hope Danny just gets the deal and it be a good one for him. I believe the record deal will open up to getting him the exposure for himself and SHF with promoting the album itself. This is Danny first album so he might have to prove himself in sales first.
heey guys BTW do you remember about the facebook thing, when i messaged gokey and all. yeah he accepted like just now. so yeah~
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Wanda, you might be right about that. I am sure any record company wants whoever they sign to prove that they can sell records. I think Danny will prove that he can. He has a really enthusiastic and loyal fan base.
danny just tweeted! good luck to all the peeps in chicago trying out for AI today..awww that was nice of him!=)
Hi girls, finally got our site back…… Can only stand to go
so long without hearing about our Danny….. I’m agreeing with
all of you on song choice…..Would much have preferred “YASB” or “WHTM”, maybe even “PYT”……I was in the store this am, and heard “Stand By Me”, immediately I thought of Danny and how
I liked his version better……..I don’t get why two of the idols are singing the same song….Does that make sense??? I doubt if I’ll buy this CD, because all I’m really interested in
is hearing Danny………
Yea, we got a tweet from Danny…….shows you what a great
person Danny is by wishing the contests good luck!!!!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I can’t get twitter at work, but I heard Danny just tweeted a messge wishing good luck to people audtioning for Idol in Chicago. I wonder if Jamar is auditioning again. I hope so. There will probably be lots of people from Milwaukee auditioning in Chicago. Dany has been saying in interviews how much talent there is in Milwaukee, especially at his church.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
karen I probably won’t buy that CD either because I already have Stand By Me downloaded and I don’t particularly like the other idols’ songs. I really only want to hear Danny! But, maybe if Danny gets paid for each album that is sold then I wil consider it. He might donate the money to his foundation.
It’s weird cuz sometimes i get danny’s tweets to my phone and sometimes i dont.. i dont konw why! had know clue he even tweeted!! maybe Jamar IS auditioning and that’s where he went??? so he was giving a shout out to him??? that would be amazing if jamar tried out and made it this year!
Hey cheryl! were you still going to send me a picture of you for the collage? just wanted to check up
Danny knows what’s best for him and the foundation…..Hope
fully if he doesn’t sign with 19E it’s his choice and not the
other way around…..I couldn’t stand if they turned Danny
down……..
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I think Jamar should have made it on Season 8. He has a really nice R&B vibe. His voice reminds me of John Legend. Maybe there will be some of Danny’s fellow church members that make it to the final 36 or 12.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
karen Danny has said he had meetings with 19Entertainment. Do you think they meet with them if they are not considering signing them? It seems weird that they would meet with him just to tell him they are not signing him, unless they do it as a courtesy and to tell him how long he has to wait to sign with some other label. If they met with him and were negotiating with him, then maybe Danny just didn’t like what they were or were not offering. I agree with you that I want it to be Danny’s decision, not 19′s. If they don’t want to sign him they are crazy. As far as I’m concerned Danny was the best Idol contestant in all 8 seasons. I never liked anyone as much as I like Danny. He is the whole package! I was never as upset about any contestant leaving as I was about Danny. I couldn’t stand the idea of not hearing him in the final 2. Truthfully there are not even any entertainers that I have listened too as much as Danny. I play his songs over and over and over. I never get sick of them. I have never done that with any other singer. So, somebody better sign him soon because I want some more Danny songs to download!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
As much as Paula and Randy and Simon liked Danny, you would think they would use whatever influence they have to get him signed to a record label. Paula was bawling when Danny left. Wouldn’t you think she would be putting in a good word for him? Same with Simon. He said he wanted Danny to be in the final 2. Shouldn’t he be pushing to get Danny a deal? Or, are celbrities just so concerned about themselves that they just forget about the contestants once they are eliminated? Maybe the only one they really care about is Adam and as long as Adam has a record deal they are fine with that.
This might be on one of the other pages of the site but Jamar auditioned again in Chicago and passed through to the next round. Not sure how true it is but someone commented that he was invited back and was allowed to be one of the first to audition. Of course this will stir up all kinds of nasty talk again, so be prepared, guys.
Nice to have the site back up and running again! Thanks Amy!
I kinda agree that we’d probably have heard at least SOMETHING if 19 had signed Danny. I get uneasy just thinking about it and not knowing what’s going on. I also agree with the assumption that if they didn’t sign him, they won’t release him until after the tour, to sign with another label. They don’t care if he’d like to get on with it and sign elsewhere. It’s all about the money to them. Sure can’t have Danny releasing an album the same time as Kris or Adam or Allison and outselling the other three.
SHIRL ***** thanks for the update! I was hoping that Jamar auditioned!!! I think that could be why Danny gave a shoutout to chicago! I bet that’s where Jamar auditioned!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Shirl If it’s true that Jamar got to audition and went thru right away I’m sure all the haters will say it is Danny’s fault!!! I’m sure if anyone from Milwaukee makes it thru the haters will blame Danny for it and say they don’t deserve it because Danny is from Milwaukee!
I wonder if 19Entertaiment allows the idols to negotiate with other labels at all during the tour. They probably don’t even allow them to talk with anyone else. All of us are going to have to be very supportive of Danny during the tour so that record companies know how much support he has from fans and will want to sign him as soon as he is out of his contract.
I need to stop talking as if Danny is not going to sign with 19Entertainment. For all I know we could hear an anouncement tomorrow!!!!!
I really don’t think that Danny would have been in meetings with 19E if they weren’t discussing signing him. None of the other Idols have mentioned meeting with 19E and I also don’t think Danny would be talking about it to the media if he didn’t think he was going to be signed. Why would he do that? It doesn’t make sense to me. If the discussion is with Arista (J or Nashville) maybe it takes longer. They didn’t announce Kristy Lee Cook going to Arista Nashville until 30 June last year right before the tour. Blake signed with Arista (J records) and they didn’t announce formerly he was signed until August. I truly believe they are considering signing him but don’t know if or when the deal will be finalized. I’m sure it will be mentioned again in Danny’s Access Hollywood interview because Laura Saltman tweeted about it.
MJ’s and Rickey’s both have a blog about Jamar auditioning in Chicago and getting through to the next round. May be why Danny sent the “tweet” about the Chicago auditions.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I feel so much anxiety about Danny and his contract. I don’t want anything to go wrong for him and I want him to get everything he wants and I want him to get it right away. I will be a nervous wreck until I hear something good about a record deal. Can 19Entertainment prevent Danny from doing something on his own, unrelated to singing? Like if he wanted to go on Dancing With The Stars. Is he allowed to do that? I hope if they don’t allow him to work on an album, they at least allow him to make appearances on other shows.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Lizzy Has there been any word on when the Access Hollywood interview will be aired? How about the interview he did with Lyndsey Parker?
Well, if Danny and 19 COULDN’T reach an agreement, I just hope word doesn’t get out about that because there is nothing more the haters would like than to start it up again that he has no talent and than no one wants him on their label!
I expect there will be plenty of nasty things floating around on the internet again, once everybody finds out Jamar auditioned again and was put through. I just hope there weren’t any snarky comments from MJ or Rickey in their report because I’m sure the comments to follow won’t be any too pleasant. And in fact I’m not even gonna go there to find out!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Shirl, I definately will not go anywhere near the hater comments on Rickey or MJSBlog. Does anybody else remember that when the season first started Rickey liked Danny a lot? It was not until MJSblog and Idolatry started hating on Danny that Rickey jumped on board with the haters. What a hypocrite. He was singing his praises early on and then he started writing all negative stuff and I guess he just hoped no one remembered that he loved Danny at first.
Shirl, Good for you……I don’t read anything from MJ or Ricky
they were so mean to Danny….and if they said anything, the comments would flow with nothing but hate….. who wants to read that???
Yeah cheryl I used to go on there all the time not anymore!!! I used to always defend danny..but they just did not care and once put a douche bag by my name too..What a bunch of losers they will never find anything good to say about danny it does not matter if its great news for him they will turn it into a negative.
thats right karen even if you defend him you have to read all the crappy negative comments all around yours!! its sucks. why do they hate him so much? its just so wrong to target someone like this. Like I said I feel sorry for the new contestant cause they will find a new target I feel so sorry for the person they choose.
Cheryl, Doesn’t Simon own part of 19E?? He liked Danny and
said it over and over again….Wonder if has as much pull on
to hire and not to hire….I remember reading that Simon
liked Danny but 19E didn’t like him……I really wish we
would hear something soon….. Danny could out sing all the
idols combined….Plus he was the best looking, YUM!!! What’s
wrong with these record companies????
lol danny tweeted again
@Dannygokey thanks bro…..i’ll let you know how i do!!!!
@Dannygokey HA! YEAH RIGHT! I am an old fogey….i would show up and the would have me personally escorted out…..rofl
@Dannygokey but in all seriousness, bro, if i did try out i would do WAY BETTER than 3rd…..pft 3rd place…what the heck
@CharlesGokey why you gotta be talking all that junk!!!! lol
lmao danny’s brother is funny.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
karen I always thought Simon owned part of 19Entertainment. I don’t get why he wouldn’t be pushing for Danny to get signed. Maybe he is.
Of all the idols this year Danny made the biggest transformation. He was adorable during his auditions (I fell in love with everything about him the first time I saw him) and then when he came on the show he was even more attractive, but by the end of the show he was hotter than any other contestant EVER! His transformation was amazing. David Cook also had a big transformation from beginning to end, but Danny became so hot that he looked like he could be a model or an actor. And, he’s getting hotter every day!
Wonder if the pictures under releasing album, is the album
cover?? Well, if it is, then look who’s first our Danny, is it
because he is the best looking and the most talented?? I wonder???
Twitter: Upsnodowns
karen He looks better than anyone on that picture. Maybe I will buy it if that is the picture they use, just to have as a keepsake.
danny’s doing a interview tomorrow
7-8 tomorrow, @dannygokey will be on the show! Hear about his faith, his future plans, and who he says SHOULD have won American Idol.
it’ll be online at WBGL.org…or iTunes Radio under ‘Family Friendly WBGL’. 7-8 central time.
http://www.WBGL.org
cheryl exactly, thats the only reason why im buying it, for the picture and the song. even though i downloaded it.. i still want it. XD gotta draw like hearts all around him XD haha<3
I agree with you Cheryl, after every show Danny just kept
getting better and better… and look at that guy now.. He’s
so darn good looking…So many things I could say about our Danny but I will keep those thoughts to myself……
JennJenn, Your gravatar makes me feel good……and is so
cheerful…we need it here…Hope my gravatar will show up soon..I’m really bugged about it….
Rachel…or Amy….please let us know what Danny says in his interview on WBGL! I won’t be here at that time to hear it and I’m like DYING here for ANY information on him, especially when it’s HIM telling it, because we’ll know for sure it’s the real deal!!!!
Danny’s twitter following is close to 60 thousand. Whenever his first cd finally does come out it will be flying off the shelves.
I agree vickie carol it will be flying off the shelves!!!
VickieCarol are you VC??? You’re right, what about all his
many fans that don’t do the internet!!! I get excited just
thinking about it……it’ll go to no# 1 for sure…..
Karen, no I’m not vc. That is an odd coincidence with the same initials though. You are right, I didn’t even think about the other fans who aren’t on twitter.
Hi Deb, I’m so mad…. We have two computers, I have a laptop
my husband has a desk top with all the works…. I asked him
if he would print out some pictures of Danny (I don’t know how
to do it) he said no!! Can you imagine….I’m just going to
have to learn and do it myself…..of course, when he’s gone
off……
o wow he would not print them!! he must not like danny!!!
well you have lots of friends here who do! so that is good=)
I wonder why your gravitar is not showing up> sometimes it takes along time for them too..
Thanks KAREN **** It’s funny cuz last night I updated my picture and it showed up right away and now the picture is back to the old one… haha
LOVE LOVE LOVE danny’s tweets to his brother!
yeah jennjenn danny is such a funny guy! he always manages to put a SMILE on our faces!!!=)
Hi Lovely ladies —– I miss talking with all of you all; I guess the system went down and I freaked out! We are a family and I cannot be disconnected from you all, who would I talk to about danny? Our handsome Suave and smooth danny is a force to be reckon with, he will get a deal, I am positive of that. he may have to go the unconventional way instead of the high road. Cheryl mentioned a lot of good factors that could play into the reason it is taking danny a long to get signed right now. But we have committed our selves to being his loyal fans, so we are going to have to see this to the end. I know you are anxious cheryl, I am going to say this in love to you my sister– TAKE A CHILL PILL! love you?!
oh my goodness on idf forums they have a picture of danny in the dark forum although it does not need to be there.. its not that bad but its a picture of him shirtless! with a waterfall in the background his wife is there and another couple but it is wOW! fantastic. I wish I knew how to get it here!

thanks shirl- those eyes are just so ahhhh sexy! and those glasses I love them he looks so cool.
I think he looks good in any glasses he puts on or none.
That pictue with danny on CNN magazine looks absolutely divine. He has the appearance of someone in another dimension; his look is subtle , intense, direct and SEXY! I cant’t wait until the tour is over, to see what is next for danny.

this will make you girls happy
media on twitter reporting danny has more meetings with 19 this week
and a few meetings this week with other labels
This same person posted a few days ago that sources say that Danny is close to signing a deal. They didn’t provide a link for any of this information but they say it’s somewhere on Twitter. I hope it’s true and that Danny gets a record deal.
Deb and anyone else who is interested, check out this site http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=181608028. This is sophia’s site that is still up and running. There are tons of pictures of her and Danny and their family. I enjoyed the pictures of their anniversary on a cruise ship. She stated that Danny entered a singing competition on the ship and won.
Can’t believe that picture of Danny would be in Dark Forum…..
Do ya’ll think it was because he didn’t have a shirt on???
I kinda like that picture…..He’s one fine guy….
I like the interview, that other said he liked Ryan…… our
Danny certainly looks good there talking into that mic….
and his voice… what can I say??
OOPS—guy..left out
Rachel, where is that report on twitter about Danny, meeting with 19 and other labels??? I’d like to follow that!
I hope that information on twitter isnt old stuff we saw on there a week or more ago….
VickieCarol, thanks…enjoyed the pictures…. of course
he would win a singing contest…. he’s the best…
What other record labels?? I’m like you Shirl, hope this
isn’t old news… I know Sony, wonder what the other labels
were??
Racheal, where’s some more great pictures of our Danny??
Deb, I just luv your picture……you look so different
with your hair down…..I liked your hair up, but really
like it down…. If Danny came to this site, he would think
what great looking fans he has……He’d also see alot of
himself with how some are doing their gravatars…..I want
my picture now…….
Karen, there are tons of pictures on the site bebo that I posted above. If you go down to the cruise pictures there are about 48 that Sophia had posted. On the cruise they went to Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, swam with stingrays, the pictures are great!!!
yeah keep em coming!!! thanks rachel that was great.
this isn’t old new it was just posted on idolforums
karen, I don’t remember the exact names of some of the labels but I do remember Danny saying a few weeks ago that he’d be in Nashville meeting with some record companies. Sure do wish I had the inside story on what’s goin’ down! I sure don’t want to read on some media site that 19 turned him down! That would start up all the trouble again!!!! I’m thinking positive….at least trying to think that way. And that no news is good news!
it was posted on twitter and TWOP
http://idolforums.com/index.php?showtopic=610173&st=600
looking forward to dannys interview tomorrow we have not had one from him in awhile so it will be great!
rachel, brain fart here! What is TWOP??? Sorry for being so dense!
Racheal, Can’t believe somebody actually apologized to Danny
for thinking he did Adam wrong…. Wonder if it was a true
hater?? Wish other people would follow….
Shirl, You’re so funny…..Brain F., never heard that one
before….
Who’s interviewing Danny tomorrow ?? I was reading that
forum (Racheal gave us) somebody said Danny better watch it…
i have no idea what twop is shirl
true karen some of adam’s fan have apologize some of them are still calling him the D word.
family friendly radio it’s a christian station karen

Karen I haven’t heard of any such meeting that danny is suppose to be having? is there a legitimate meeting?
Latrece, All I know it that Danny’s doing a radio show in
the a.m. I’m like you, haven’t heard anything…. Can’t help
but think it’s old news…..Racheal said no, that it was
just posted…..Hope it’s not a joke….It’s seems like Danny
would “tweet” us and tell us what’s going on..
This same person posted a few days ago that sources say that Danny is close to signing a deal. They didn’t provide a link for any of this information but they say it’s somewhere on Twitter. I hope it’s true and that Danny gets a record deal.
IT WAS MENTIONED SOMEWHERE ON TWITTER
WEll I hope our sweet danny is making some contacts, will continue to pray. Goodnight Karen.
apparently his brother sings too lol
The electrician started on the basement tonight! I am So excited. Next is dry wall and then paint..then….RECORDING STUDIO!!!!!!! from his brothers’s twitter
Vickiecarol, It’s kind of sad to see that site….people

Poor Danny…..he’s a really special person….I’m so glad
that he tried out for AI…..
from matt’s twitter he’s going to scott’s birthday party i’m sure danny’s going too.
Racheal, Wonder if Danny’s brother can sing as well as Danny??
How did you feel about some of those remarks made??? I don’t
know if there were some haters, maybe not haters, but
certainly not lovers….
Good nite, Latrece……Rest well….

And to think I thought it would be alllll over when the finale ended! THAT thought has come back to bite me in the arse many times! LOL!
i couldn’t read them all i try not to read the bad stuff about danny
that person who apologized to danny tweeted him today and said that they loved him.
Rachel – you are the best with all of these photos!!! I love the one with Michael Sarver’s daughter sending love to Danny. I think we should all TWEET Danny at the same time sending a shout out to him!!!
Everyone, stay positive!!
Our Danny WILL get a contract. Our Danny is busy with tour practice (not many tweets), I think JENN JENN get’s to see him first or close to first out there on the west coast. I have no doubt Danny will get a contract – who, what, why, when, where – no clue and don’t care. Just want to hear his music. I would love to see some you tube videos from their rehearsals!
BTW, still working on contacting SHF for the “Fan Event” for charity. I have left several messages, emails, tweets, etc. I am guessing they can’t tell the real people from the haters???? It is strange that no one answers the phone during business hours. You would think with all of the publicity Danny is getting you would want someone answering the phones and least a receptionist or someone!!
Michelle, You are always so positive, alot more than me……
It’s hard not to worry about why Danny hasn’t gotten his contract, when 3 other ones have…. Maybe they are saving
the best for last……Maybe you’re right about SHF, not
knowing the haters from the real people…..Wonder if SHF has
had any calls or whatever from non-supporters?? Maybe with
what has been happening with Danny, they are just being
cautious…who knows?? I find that it’s strange that no one
answers the phone during bus. hours…. like you said, with
all the attention Danny is getting….
Good Morning Danny Fans, Hope everybody rested well….Looking forward to the interview this am, know our
Danny will do a good job, he always does…. Maybe today
will be the day we hear some good news from our Danny….Let’s
keep our fingers crossed……
Morning, guys! Just a quick good morning as I need to have my new laptop set up.
Been to that radio station and there’s nothing there on Danny’s interview, just a bunch of questions fans want to ask him or have the moderator ask him.
If someone can find that or a site with the text of the interview, please do share! I’ll be back later!

Hi everyone! I posted my comments on a different page, but I’ll repost them here. I listened to some of the interview.
I wasn’t able to hear all of Danny’s interview on WBGL this morning. Something was wrong with the broadcast. They did say they would run it again on Thursday morning. I did hear Danny talk about what kind of record he would like to make. He siad R&B with a latin fusion. But, he also said he would be open to a modern country soul, with no twang. He also said he was singing 3 counrty songs on tour, but with no twang. I know he is singing What Hurts The Most and My Wish, but I’m not sure what other counrty song he is singing. Maybe, Jesus Take The Wheel?
He also said that he doesn’t have a contract yet, but there is work going on behind the scenes and that he was talking to record companies. I was hoping he would say he was close to getting a deal, but he didn’t give a timeline.
I liked his response to a question about how much he was able to talk about his faith while on the show. He said he had discussions with Adam and they agreed to disagree and that it was interesting to talk to Adam about it. He said he never shoves religion in anyone’s face and he thinks he shows his faith more in deeds rather than words. He said there are some Christians who wanted him to go on the show and talk about Jesus, Jesus, Jesus – but he did not do that. His actions spoke for him. That’s about all I heard, so I am looking forwad to hearing the whole interview on Thursday.
Karen: I am not more positive than everyone, I just have made a conscious decision to shut out all negative thoughts regarding the album issue.
Cheryl: Thanks for the information. It sounds like to me that 19 might want to push him into country and he doesn’t want that??? Could there be a creative difference dispute and that’s what’s taking so long???
As far as religion goes, that is a personal thing and it really shouldn’t come up in discussions or interviews (unless he wants to discuss it).
I don’t think any of us fans care what they call Danny’s music (country soul, R&B, etc.) We just want the music!!! We need a fix and soon!!!!! Wish he could tweet some little sounds bites for us.
Danny and Adam are following each other on twitter.
Still need to know about this Idols Album coming out. Don’t get me wrong, I will buy it, but how is this different from what we already dowloaded on itunes???

Stand By Me isn’t my favorite, but I think it showcases Danny’s voice/style nicely. This CD is probably just for people who don’t have ITunes or missed out.
Re Danny’s album, I really hope he holds out for what he wants; I have a feeling there are two factors holding things up:
His desire to have SHF involved and
I suspect 19 is trying to push him into country because they think they can market him better and there are no country singers this year. I don’t understand that, because Danny is R&B and there is certainly room for that genre, even Ricky Minor said so.
ya’ll i had a dream about danny we were dancing to get low by lil jon on stage lol wild dream

rachel I can’t get youtube at work, but I will listen to the songs tonite at home. I have run across so many songs that I think Danny could sing. His voice is really suitble for a lot of different genres. He could even do softer rock, despite what people think.

Just testing. Forgot to enter in my new password information so I lost the nice big long post I had written!!!
Ok….now we’re cookin’.
Just wanted to thank Cheryl for letting us know what Danny said in his radio interview this morning! Hugs for that, girl!
And I agree with Michelle….I don’t care what genre of music he goes with on his album, I JUST WANT HIS ALBUM! I have just about played holes in my CD of his AI songs, on constant loop on my car stereo!
Rachel, another thanks for the links to the pics from thecount.com! Never even heard of that site before. Seeing new pics is always such a treat!
Just wanted to make sure my gravatar is working…..Wanted to
see Danny’s picutre….
Karen, your gravatar is working just fine! But who’s that guy in your gravatar….he looks so familiar! Hee hee! Seriously…I love that pic. So glad you got it workin’, girl!
It will be interesting to see who’s albums make it. Kind of gives you somewhat of an idea how competitive it is in the music industry.
Even with the huge exposure that is “Idol”, most of these people just won’t make it.
Cheryl is right – Simon could easily get a record deal for Danny – Simon makes his millions from music – not from talent shows
