Few would risk making guarantees when it comes to a hodgepodge of a disc like Showstoppers, but one thing is for sure: it's bound to become the only CD in your collection you bought knowing full well you would have to hold your nose through certain tracks. That, of course, is the fun of the American Idol franchise: You may love Carrie Underwood's rootin'-tootin' version of Martina McBride's "Independence Day" but loathe Anthony Federov's syrup-soaked rendition of the '80s chestnut "Everytime You Go Away"; you may swoon over Bo Bice's Grass Roots-style vocal on the Gavin DeGraw hit "I Don't Want to Be" but find yourself making the gag-me gesture when Mikalah Gordon steps up to the mike for a Streisand-aping take on "God Bless the Child." Call it a lowbrow musical twist on the famous theatrical formula "You will laugh! You will cry!", but instead of laughing and crying you will love and hate (then again, laughter and tears could enter into the equation after a close listen to Constantine Maroulis's "My Funny Valentine"). The final cut, an ensemble number, puts this amateurs' jumble into perspective: given the right producer, anybody can sing, even those Simon Cowell would sooner see at a cut-rate karaoke bar. --Tammy La GorceCustomer reviews: Big fan of Vonzell Solomon, 2007-08-10 Since I'm a big fan of Vonzell, I've bought every Cd she's put out, and I found this great Christmas song she covered, it's possibly the best thing she's done, it's called "Breaking For the Holidays" and she sings "It's gonna be a Cold Christmas" and it's the sweetest christmas song ever!Breaking For the Holidays
Good Group, 2007-03-28 I remember this group being a good group. This was a good CD and most of the songs were good. The stand out songs were "Independence Day", Part Time Lover, Total Eclipse of the heart" by Carrie Underwood, Nikko Smith and Jessica Sierra respectively. "Best of my Love" was weak considering that Vonzell Solomom was one of the better singers this season. Constatine's arrangement of My Funny Valentine was hidious especially if you've heard Stevie Wonder's version and Chaka Khan's version.
