Taylor Hicks Makes Billboard Top 100 Albums of 2007

Billboard released its Top 100 albums of 2007. Taylor Hicks self titled album “Taylor Hicks” came in at #74. This is a major accomplishment and Taylor should be very proud of himself. Taylor had very little radio and his promotion was not the best. For Taylor Hicks to still make the Top 100 list is amazing.

Some want to center on who did better than whom, that does not matter in the slightest as everyone is in different genres. Taylor’s talent is shining through and no matter what anyone does to try and tear him down his talent will continue to shine through and his career will continue to grow.

I am sure we all remember the story of the tortoise and the hare. The hare was leading the race but because he thought he was guaranteed to beat the tortoise he messed around a little too long. In the end the tortoise won the race. As the story means, slow and steady wins the race. Taylor Hicks is following this pace and the hare will soon be left in his dust.

My charts mean nothing but if I were to chart my Favorites of the idols in order of preference it would be like this,

1) Taylor Hicks

That’s all that would chart on my list because that is the only Idols I listen to
