These Wickedites (wickedidiots?) need to stop — Page 3

Ugh muscle.....for the 100th time. You liked Bombay Dreams so your opinion holds no merit. Begone before someone drops a Joshaba the Green Jew on you.

That might be the funniest thing I've ever read.

And why is this any different than an actor being reviewed for their performance onstage? This kid put himself out there on a website that everyone can access and watch, just as an actor puts himself out there when he's performing. If you can't take the heat then get out of the kitchen.... in other words if the kid can't take criticism then he should never have posted this dum video in the first place. For pete's sake, we have every right to say this kid is an idiot. You have every right to say you enjoyed it. I'm just tired of these ridiculous arguments.

When I see finger paintings hanging on people's refrigerators I'm merciless in my criticism.

How is this different than anyone else singing like a bafoon.

And more importnatly how was *I* the first one to rate him?

Begging for criticism, yes, but how long did it take for that criticism to center around his appearance and his sexuality (something I'm sure he gets from gaggles of bullies already)? I have no idea how old this kid is, but I think it's pretty safe to say he's not at the age of better judgment. And while I can bash people with the best of them -- I don't know. In these cases, it feels like heckling at the Special Olympics.

I actually think his voice is not that bad. Though the song choice, well, that is another issue.

But, hell, he sings better than I can. True, that is not saying much, but maybe this is one of the few ways he has of getting feedback. Hell, I heard worse songs last night on American Idol. (Mary J. Blige - what was up with her?).

Did anyone else see WB's Superstar were they picked the Worst singer but they thought they were the best..... i loved that show!!!!!!

I love Wicked, but this is the problem when a show that gets TOO BIG...every kid thinks they're Elphaba...literally. I'm not sure if it's ego or disillusionment, but do they really expect people to take them seriously? This guy's got more youtube "tracks", did you listen to "No Good Deed"? Maybe he's just doing it for fun, but I'm worried if I say he wasn't too bad, he'll read this thread and his ego will tell him he's ready to audition for Elphaba. If you do it alone in your bedroom fine, but when you publically post over the Internet, sadly, you're only setting yourself up to be laughed at.
Still, Reach for the Stars kid

20? OK. My sympathy level just slid down about 30 points.

HAHAHAHAHA

Thank you for posting this.
It made my day and preoccupied me from doing a term paper.

I mean, I feel bad laughing at the kid-but when you put yourself out there in THAT way (and someday he'll say to me Joshua..)-then you have to expect it.

I tried... really I did. But I just couldn't make it through.

But I give him an "A" for sheer guts and a "B" for unbridled (if a bit misguided) effort.

Answer to question of why is he posting that on the Internet for all to see? The same reason we are all on the Internet now, posting our opinions, our jabs, our attempts at humor or personal creative musings. It’s an attempt (of sorts) to reach out to the world at large.

I don't think most people truly realize how "open" they are when they PUBLISH things on the Web. That's exactly what each of us is doing when we hit "upload" or "Post Message," etc. It is literally out there for the entire world to see.

The entire world.

I chose to live my life openly. I always think twice about what I say, but I'm not afraid to speak my mind or "put it out there." That doesn’t mean I don’t put my foot in my mouth on a regular basis. I can only hope that "young Joshua" feels the same way here, and realizes just what he's doing.

As long as he does... then all is fair in love and war. And he's entitled to hit “send” just as much as any of the rest of us.

Wow...I think my computer was as annoyed and disgusted as I was...cuz it definitely wouldnt let me finish the entire song...not that that's a bad thing. People need to stop, just stop, unless they want the Simon of Broadway to start leaving comments on their youtube sights. I mean c'mon folks.

20..... any guilt I felt has been erased.

**slaps Joshaba**

Try not to cry...
