Best male vocalist potential Mar 03, 2008 06:00 PM ET Reviewed by: CharlesIngalls Although he lacks the intelligence, maturity, style, originality, sophistication, charisma and stage presence of the great crooners--Sinatra, Torme, Martin, Bennett, Crosby--his voice in in their league. That voice of his is a magnificent instrument, with probably the greatest potential of any American male voice today, even though his recordings so far show that Elliott doesn't always know what to do with it.

No one else sounds, looks or charms like Elliott Yamin. Average Jul 13, 2006 02:25 PM ET Reviewed by: Rh2458 Sorry all, I find Elliott to be average at best and honestly sounds the same in almost everything he sings. Elliot! Jun 23, 2006 03:14 PM ET Reviewed by: idolstocker Elliot Yammin was a phonominal singer. Absolutley fantastic voice. Not my favriot, but I think his voice is rich and inflicted with a great gift. The fact that he is 90% hearing loss in his right ear is just throwing me for a loop. He had a few rough performances but I think he was overall great. My favriot: A song for you. Least: On Broadway. Reviewing Elliott Jun 03, 2006 08:39 PM ET Reviewed by: talentlover Elliott is a likeable person with a pleasant voice, but did not have the overall "IT" factor needed to become "Idol" Amazing Jun 03, 2006 06:56 PM ET Reviewed by: dchscheer elliott is my american idol Overrated!

'Voice Range:' Good Range. Nowhere near Mariah Carey but good range. 'Voice Power:' Decent Power. Nowhere near the power as Whitney but decent power. 'Voice Control:' Good Control. So basically he's vocally all-around pretty good. 'Emotes feeling:' Good - not nearly as much as Taylor but good. 'Pizzazz, Flair, and Energy:' Not nearly as much as Taylor. 'Own Style:' Eh ok. 'Stage Presence:' Not nearly as much as Bo Bice. 'Appeal, Charm, Charisma:' Ok appeal - the guy's sensitive. 'Physically Attractive:' I don't know who's uglier - Taylor or Elliot. 'Outstanding Performances:' Sometimes memorable sometimes not. Not my cup of tea... May 24, 2006 12:53 AM ET Reviewed by: CdaFan Elliot reminds me of William "She Bangs" Hung. Don't quit your day-job... E May 23, 2006 09:38 PM ET Reviewed by: rodek Elliott is great! Has many weaknesses May 23, 2006 01:17 PM ET Reviewed by: TrueReviews The thing with Elliott is he lacks power and authority in his voice so he scores low in voice power, stage presence, and flair. He doesn't have the best sounding voice, but he's got lots of control so he scores well with control. He's not the best looking of course, Katharine has most people beat. Basically what he lacks is Star Power. Elliott May 10, 2006 04:57 PM ET Reviewed by: Jane Great voice, needs a bit more stage presence/ Great singer! Mar 30, 2006 12:44 PM ET Reviewed by: Manderly This guy has wonderful control. Very good, even with challenging material. Not a great performer -- but perhaps that will come with time. Good Voice but Mar 25, 2006 03:10 PM ET Reviewed by: Bronson This guy has a good voice but I just can't stand him. Never liked Barry Manilow he said. What a xxxxxx. This is why he is just an amateur. Can't appreciate a seasoned professional. Auntie tings take on Elliot Mar 22, 2006 07:02 AM ET Reviewed by: ting I've loved this guys vocals from day one, and have been rooting for him every since. I think Elliot is my underdog project of this years competition because I think he has so much to offer and so little time to get it done. He has a pure and true voice, he is certainly a little on the naive side and very humbled to even be part of the final 12. I would love to see him really start singing fully from his heart, see his self confidence blossom and I'm waiting on one of those WOW performances that I know he has in him that will really make America stand up and say "WHERE did THAT come from, I mean we knew he was good, but that was AWESOME". Its in there folks... give it time. I fear that his not as sexy appearance will hinder him in this contest as much of America votes for eye candy instead of talent. Again, a reminder that this is a SINGING CONTEST and folks, Elliot CAN AND DOES do it well. Elliott Mar 22, 2006 01:28 AM ET Reviewed by: AKN4CLY He is good but there is something about him that just bugs me. I can't figure out what it is though! Under the radar Mar 16, 2006 01:30 PM ET Reviewed by: soulpatrolnot Elliott seems to be flying under the radar right now. I agree with the comment below that they don't agree with Simon's assessment as the best male vocalist since the show started. Elliott is the best.
