Hope no one minds but I thought best to start a new thread for this as believe there could be plenty to share and discuss on it.  Will start by placing on here tweet Michael has posted and if you go into the link it not only shows you tweet but gives you details about how to enter competition to become a backup singer in Michael's band for 1 week by taking you into video that Michael has made explaining the rules and here is link into that video  http://youtu.be/GF6NDRH4w2c

Voting closes in round one of the Dream Jobbing competition tomorrow so please go in and vote for your favourites and especially your favourites that can SING.

Michael will pick the 20 to go through to round two but he will also have to take into account the number of votes and at the present moment, in my opinion, those 20 that have accumulated the highest number of votes shouldn't all be there.  There are at least half who fall far short of some of the other entrants who just don't have the votes either because they haven't long entered their videos or they don't have the same number of friends voting for them as some who are on FB and are friends with many there who are voting for them on the friendship basis not because they can sing.....blunt, yes, but being so as it is pretty blunt and obvious what is going on with the voting and it is a darn shame.

PLEASE go in and vote for those that can SING !!!

Just an up date that voting has now finished and dream job has been placed in the category of being "live".   Top 20 will be announced on 17th after Michael himself has looked over and decided on that top 20.

I'm very curious about Michael's choice! There are some good singers here. 

But also many singer which I would have dissuaded to make a video! ;)


I´d like to be a fly on the wall (ha, ha)!!!


Thank you for the info, Sylvia!!

Thanks for the update Sylvia, take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada :D

Hi Tiffany, I don't know if you watch "American Idol", but you often hear contestants who walk in and sing while they couldn't carry a tune in a suitcase. However, they think they can and they often underline that their family and friends have told them they could, out of support or not knowing any better.  All I'm saying is that sometimes, beauty is in the ear of the beholder. I know sometimes, some people just need a little confidence, some people have their own style and some should stick to singing in the shower, because it makes them feel good. I've heard that Colby Caillet was rejected from A I, but she still has a career. To be honest, I really don't know why public votes were allowed since Michael has the final say, but I know nothing... :D Incidentally, there's nothing wrong with a breathy singer: have you ever heard of David Cassidy? If you're too young for that, check him out singing "Cherish" from the Association. He was the most popular teen idol from the 70's.  Well anyway, sorry for the ramble, lol  thanks for sharing sweetie, take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada :D

Hi again Tiffany, well, they used to be cruel back in the days where Simon was on. Sometimes he was right on though, but too bad he was carrying his tact in a thimble... :D  Maybe public voting was to create excitement about the competition. Heehee, I had a crush on Shaun too, I just watched “The Partridge family” reruns to learn English! Lol Check him out:

Ah memories... I love this song... Well anyway, good luck with the mike sweetie, take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada  :D

VERY HAPPY that Michael Howarth is one of the 20! :-))

 

Silvy from CH x

Thanks for the update Sylvia, go Michael Howarth! Do you know how many applicants there were Sylvia? Just wondering. In any case, I'm really happy for Michael H, this was a big hurdle. Take care Sylvia and thanks again. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada :D

There were 97 in total but one was of a guy zooming along the road on a scooter (there always has to be the 1, doesn't there ? lol) don't think we will count him so, officially....96 entrants.

Just to add it was Michael's birthday on 16th so what a wonderful birthday present he got on 17th.....way to go Michael !!! :)

Sylvia.  Your wee Scottish friend.

Thanks Sylvia!

Unfortunately, I could hear not all candidates because the videos were interrupted time and again!

Important to me: my favorite is among them!

Petra (Germany)

Thank you all so much for your comments, and for the support I've received - I'm truly humbled. I'm absolutely delighted to have got this far - if it ends here, I'm proud to have been selected over some really fantastic vocalists.

Thank you all, and have a wonderful Christmas!

Michael xx
