But when he reached the top 12 he seemed to lose some of that star quality and his pwerformances began to splip, saying that he is still one of the best male perfomers in american idol history and hes so sweet. Anwar Jul 03, 2005 01:17 AM ET Reviewed by: Latins4AFed Anwar was the first contestant I noticed on AI this season. I enjoyed his singing voice very much but then I don't know what happened....I lost interest in him. He seems like a genuinely sweet guy though. Hard to tell what kind of musical career he will have in the future. anwar Jun 19, 2005 05:27 PM ET Reviewed by: maroulislove89 okay .. loved september .. but made me bored Anwar lacks Jun 07, 2005 03:30 PM ET Reviewed by: littler2820 Anwar had great ability and control but he lack interest Anwar Jun 06, 2005 11:25 PM ET Reviewed by: have2smile I think that Anwar left Way too soon.

Teacher Jun 06, 2005 08:52 PM ET Reviewed by: chris8677 Anwar was very unforgettable; not necessarily for his singing though but for his appearance. I enjoyed several of his performances very much--Moon River in particular. I loved the way he took an old song and made it new and original. Beautiful Anwar Jun 03, 2005 02:14 PM ET Reviewed by: marianne Anwar has a grace and radiance that serves him well, and a good voice that sometimes struck me as shrill, unfortunately. He made unique song selections, like "Moon River," that made him interesting. Anwar Too Much the Same Jun 02, 2005 08:58 PM ET Reviewed by: taterbugg59 All of Anwar's songs sounded the same, and he only sang songs by black artists. He would have done better to try something different. Anwar May 31, 2005 12:40 AM ET Reviewed by: AKN4CLY Good voice but kinda boring Anwar is OK too.

He was deinitely able to take songs and make them his "own". Anwar is a great looking guy, with a sweet smile and pleasant demeanor, but his performances lacked the explosive, smouldering energy and impact of some of the other finalists (i.e., Constantine and Bo) Anwar May 22, 2005 02:07 AM ET Reviewed by: hb1288 He seemed to be a favorite in the beginning of the competition. But as it progressed, weaknesses were reveiled. He seemed to have trouble hitting the low notes, which I think is what eventually led to him being voted off. Anwar May 21, 2005 04:50 PM ET Reviewed by: Tesssy Although Anwar was one of my favorites coming off of auditions, he quickly lost me. I was not thrilled with his song choices and frankly, he just bored me. Things were the same with him week after week and when he was eliminated, I could not remember that he had been there. It was, for me, a case of no growth....perhaps potential had already been met and there was nowhere else to go.

Has a unique look to him, has a terrific sounding voice, but he is sooooooooo booooooring. Pitchy May 21, 2005 01:33 AM ET Reviewed by: Huuugs Anwar always sounded a bit "pitchy" to me. He has a beautiful voice. . . sounded a lot like Stevie Wonder to me. That is the problem, there has already been a SW. He strived to make songs his own, but I felt that was when he went off pitch. He is a beautiful person to look at. Has a certain flare about him. Okay May 20, 2005 09:58 PM ET Reviewed by: Doraemon Nice voice, but all performances seemed similar Inconsistent May 20, 2005 09:54 PM ET Reviewed by: WhipIt Anwar's biggest problem was his vocal inconsistency. His lower register is weak - pitchy and problematic. He has charisma, and with the right songs he sounds good. He didn't pick enough right songs though. Very nice vocals May 20, 2005 09:49 PM ET Reviewed by: EPenguin Vocals are great. Performances can get a bit boring at times, but overall, pretty good. Eh.... May 20, 2005 04:34 PM ET Reviewed by: Jessa1326 Anwar isn't a horrible singer, but I've heard a lot better. Anwar: Unrealized Potential May 20, 2005 01:15 PM ET Reviewed by: FlyrGrl Anwar has a very good voice, tending towards nasal, but not unpleasantly. He did have trouble finding the pitch at times, wavered and occasionally missed badly. Performed much better in the semi-final studio, with a smaller band. He clearly posesses strong musical knowledge. He is a very nice looking man who projects a quiet, sweet personality. I felt his stage-presence was lacking; that he looked nervous and uncomfortable, especially on the larger stage. He performed almost the same routine every week (sitting, then standing, walk a little, glory note ending). When he attempted to let loose and dance, he came across as awkward and his vocals suffered. Even thought the arrangement of some songs was unique, he still became predictable and a bit dull. His "Moon River" performance showed his potential, but it was not built upon. ok May 20, 2005 12:10 AM ET Reviewed by: shamus1 I bet you he is better when not in a competition...started strong but fizzled nice guy May 19, 2005 08:16 PM ET Reviewed by: juliarose Good singer, nice voice Likeable But Off-Key May 19, 2005 05:20 PM ET Reviewed by: boomer1251 Anwar exudes likeablitiy. He seems genuinely nice! I would love for him to teach music to my children or grandchildren. As singer, however, he was frequently quite off-key throughout the entire performance, not just at the nervous beginning of a song. I'll admit, he always belted out a thrilling, on-key high note at the end of each song that saved his performances from total vocal disaster. On stage, he wasn't always comfortable and it showed in some stiff, rather lifeless performances. At other times, he was dynamic and smooth. Even though I am a guy, I will agree that Anwar is good looking and LOOKS like an American Idol. Anwar May 18, 2005 04:13 PM ET Reviewed by: Zelda7865 Great singer - nice, nice guy - perhaps that's what got in the way. I didn't sense a lot of passion. anwar May 17, 2005 08:30 PM ET Reviewed by: tina37204 anwar was average, like most of them on the show Boring May 17, 2005 07:57 PM ET Reviewed by: shannon25 Has singing talent, but I found him quite boring. He also had some problems with control at times (which he tried to cover and make up for in glory notes). Not a Anwar fan May 17, 2005 04:27 PM ET Reviewed by: conl0ve He's alright. Nice guy, nice voice, he's just nice May 17, 2005 01:45 PM ET Reviewed by: Lynne Anwar Robinson seems like a great guy who loves music. In the long run, I think his song selection hurt him more than anything else. "Moon River" and "What a Wonderful World" were pop standards decades ago, and were Robinson's best performances. He struggled when he tried to sing more modern selections. He has the look of a pop star, pleasant vocals, and if given the correct material to sing, may be successful outside of his classroom. anwar May 17, 2005 10:31 AM ET Reviewed by: silverspeed he blew me away in the audition rounds. It showed me what he could do, sadly he never matched it in the top 12. Anwar Too Predictable May 17, 2005 07:46 AM ET Reviewed by: ElderMainer At first I loved Anwar's voice. On the ballads he has a gorgeous tone. But when he tried to get out of that genre and made attempts at showmanship, his vocal quality was not as good. I often felt uncomfortable when he was doing something other thatn a ballad because he seemed awkward. I like him VERY much as a person though, but I don't think he has the charisma to appeal to m audience. Love him but not the best May 16, 2005 11:53 PM ET Reviewed by: AIFan I had great hopes for him. I really liked him as a person, the way he seemed to be a nice guy, sincere, refined. He had a great sound to his voice. He made most songs original---or different from the original recorded versions. Problem was they all were done the same--so even though they were different from other versions of that song, they all started being done exactly the same---low, not the best at the beginning and a big huge ending. I wish his voice and control was more consistent throughout the entire song, cause he had the ability to make people really love him and pull for him.

NA May 16, 2005 02:42 PM ET Reviewed by: inguards I did not care for his style fantasic adult contempory artist, NOT an Idol May 16, 2005 12:22 PM ET Reviewed by: bludevlgal I said from the start that Anwar was Awesome but he wasn't going to be our next AI. His voice is wonderful and really full and great to get lost in, but his style is perfect for smooth jazz and adult contemporary music, not pop. He was a little shaky on his lower range, but not as bad as the judges made it out to be. Of course his big soaring notes were actually the standard for quite some time- all of the other contestants felt the pressure to match it and for several weeks each contestant had a song with a big long note towards the end, which has died down since his departure from the show. Best wishes to him, he's great but not AI material. Anwar May 16, 2005 12:10 PM ET Reviewed by: deyabird Anwar has a great upper range, but his lower range is really lacking. I liked his personality.

Potential Unrealized May 15, 2005 09:14 PM ET Reviewed by: BradnHou At the beginning of the finals, Anwar had the potential to do something very special but he somehow lost it very early in the competition.
