Thank you, Clay Aiken, for a refreshing change to today's not-so-popular pop music. Not only is Mr. Aiken's voice relaxed, soothing, and versatile, he actually SINGS; he doesn't, for lack of a better term, "Mariah Carey" the notes all over the place. For this he should be commended - and emulated by future artists. Keep up the excellent work, Mr. Aiken!
