另一個小弟的消息 - 美國偶像

NOT FROM THE TOP 24: Until this week, the only "American Idol" contestant to
not reach the top 24 on the show and appear on a Billboard chart was William
Hung. The Hong Kong-born hopeful auditioned during the third season with an
out-of-tune take on Ricky Martin's "She Bangs" and was so memorable he ended
up with a No. 1 record on the Top Independent Albums chart.

隨便翻: 在本週前, AI 沒進入 TOP 24 的參賽者中, 只有孔慶祥曾經進入告示牌
的排行榜(還是第一名喔!).


Josiah Leming's story is somewhat different. He auditioned during the seventh
season of Idol, and impressed the judges enough to win a trip to Hollywood.
He made an impact on viewers with his vocal prowess and also for living in
his car and breaking down in tears during an emotional moment. Many were
surprised when he was sent home without making it into the top 24. More
people were surprised when he signed a recording deal with Warner Bros.
Records.

隨便翻: Josiah 雖然也沒進入 TOP 24, 但他的表現和孔慶祥不一樣, 沒能進入前 24
讓很多人驚訝, 但更讓人訝異的是他和華納唱片簽約了.


Leming has released an EP, "Angels Undercover," on Reprise and that set
debuts on the Top Heatseekers chart at No. 26. That makes Leming the 39th
"Idol" to appear on a Billboard chart. If you just consider singers who
became finalists by making the top 12, the number of "Idols" who have charted
remains at 37.

重點在這
隨便翻: Josiah 發行 EP-"Angels Undercover," 第一週就進入 Top Heatseekers 榜
第 26 名, 使他成為第 39 位進入告示牌排行榜的 Idol, 其他 37 位都是進入
到前 12 名的參賽者.

**************************************************
恭喜 Josiah!! 沒想到第七季參賽者中他能接在大廚、小弟、廚嬸之後發片
目前消息是 10 月 28 日發行 EP, 然後新專輯也是要等到明年初.

來聽看看吧:
