Gareth Should be Idol's Top Pop

"This review is in no way meant to be disrespectful to Will but after comparing the voices of both Gareth's and his, I can't help wonder if there was a 'Stupid Mistake' made in voting Will as Pop Idol's winning artist. Mind you, this is just my opinion. And again, no disrespect is meant to Will. On Gareth's single "Stupid Mistake", his brilliant, smooth, angelic vocal's, along with those soulful brown eyes of his, could make anyone forgive him for any mistake. It is wonderful to hear such a refreshing voice in the world of pop music today. One that can make you a fall in love once again with an oldie but goodie (his rendition of Unchained Melody) and then become mesmerized with the pleading sound of his vocals in "Stupid Mistake". I think pop music could use more like him. I would rate this cd with 10 stars if possible!"
Pop Idol Backlash!

"Gareth may not have won the UK television show, Pop Idol, but he wins with this single! Anyone Of Us, Gates' second single flew to #1 and it's easy to see why! I love it! It's true Brit-pop, FUN! I highly recommend it to all!"
