"The Voice." What does it entail? "All Talents, Voices, Looks and All Walks of Life.

"The Voice" is a new television show, which at a glance seems to have a very commendable purpose. The Judges are trying to find the true vocal talent independently of age, looks, and even performance skills. "WOW!" I first exclaimed! "My prayers were answered" I thought. The whole thing is about the voice and the voice only! Thank God!

I have to admit that so far out of all the vocal competitions we have seen, the contestants chosen during the "blind auditions" have been the strongest ever!

The beauty of this show is that all the contestants are definitely vocally sound, but in my opinion, it is a little hard at times to accept their appearance.

Some of them are middle-aged and appear to be quite "un-groomed." And some of them are even somewhat scruffy looking. But that is not the end of the world. The peculiar thing is that not one of them during their interviews and off stage appearances said that they are participating in the show for the love of music and singing in particular! In fact, practically all of them were saying that their dream to become a celebrity artist is for the purpose of helping their families…

Go figure!

What about their heart and soul? What about their passion?

They've been given a chance of a lifetime to express themselves fully through their voices and without any prejudice and have presumably mercantile agendas. In other words, they are treating this competition in the same fashion as buying some lottery tickets in hopes to win and improve their financial situation…!

Should that be a true motive? Or should these chosen people be happy that their very hidden talents are actually getting discovered and uncovered against all odds and might even be given a chance to explode worldwide?

THIS IS YOUR RIDDLE…

Coming Soon:

"The Voice" Part 2 - As the show is Progressing are there any "voices" Left?

The Voice. What is the purpose of the show? Are the judges looking for the next Susan Boyle or Paul Potts for that matter? And if they are, it is not such a bad thing, provided that the contestants remain to keep the quality of the voices that they originally came with. Due to my trade, watching every singing contest/competition under the sun, it seems to be that they have the same pattern where the judges pick, in most contests, the top of the top, cream of the crop singers to start with and then, for some very strange and mysterious reason, the contestants begin to deteriorate by each consecutive episode. The reason is unknown...?
