Dilana is terrible, I cant stand her voice, it actually hurts my ears. Storm was really good and she was smokin hot too. I think Lukas is terrible, Living on a Prayer was one of the worst performances I've ever seen, and his original wasn't much better in my opinion. You can't understand anything he says. I think Toby is the best and he should win. As long as its not Dilana I dont care who wins.

hmm...i thought Lukas' song was awesome and full of such emotion and intensity. The band's comments for him seal the deal that he's gonna win it IMO. Reading some spoiler sites that detail all the comments that are made at the show (not just what's edited for tv) it's a lock for him. Tommy said last week he dreamed of having a singer that looked and sounded like him.
I really liked Storm too...totally the right attitude for that band...thought she'd make it to the final.

i hate the canadian guy; everyone else has a good chance and are really talented. As for Storm, she was really fucking hot (REALLY) and had a great voice, but it seemed more right for stage than for rock. and her attitude got annoying easily

Lukas does suck, I can't make out what he's saying half the time. I don't think he has what it takes. Storm sucked too. I hated her voice and onstage performances, seemed dull and she only seemed to step it up a little more when he she was in jeopardy of being booted. Both would be overshadowed by the members of the band. I like Dilana, she can hit every note and has a rocker voice but I think it will be an all male band which is why I think Toby has the right personality, stage presence, voice, and attitude to win the show.

I'm in the minority here it seems, but I get shivers when I hear Lukas sing. To me he has it all - the voice, the look, the stage presence. He's the real deal and can more than handle the job.
He's paid his dues for years on the Toronto scene. He's written songs for his bands and with lots of high profile bands in Canada. He's the only one I think who can make this band relevant.

I've seen every episode this year and was sad to see Storm go...IMO she had the best voice, range and personality of the entire lot.
I applaud Lukas for how far he has come along. He is virtually a carbon copy of JD from last year in the sense that he is Canadian, was despised by many in the beginning, made the most controversial comments and then turned in to the "guy to beat", changed his attitude and focus and now it looks like he's gonna take it.
Toby is the only other logical choice...decent chops, decent stage presence and the chicks dig him.
Magni wouldn't make it on the road without his family and Dilana has completely crashed and burned, not to mention her god-awful one-dimensional raspy voice, it's arsenic to my ears. Jordis is Ella Fitzgerald compared to her.
All in all I've enjoyed this year, the house band is great to watch and I hope they do another season...to me, it's good entertainment.

[quoteHe reminds me of Hawksley too but I actually like some of Hawksley's stuff so..... Who has Lukas written songs for and with?[/quote]
From his bio:
He has written and toured with Papa Roach, I Mother Earth, The Tea Party, Edwin and Big Wreck. He also took on the impressive opportunity of working with producer and Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson, as well as and Jay and John Levine from the Philosopher Kings and Prozac.
After acquiring a publishing deal with EMI Music Canada in 2004, Lukas worked and wrote with producer Dave Tyson in Los Angeles. After that, he recorded demos with producer Gavin Brown (Billy Talent, Three Days Grace), leading to the formation of the band Rise Electric.
cratch: That song about his spinning head is atrocious. Who cares? The band is gonna suck anyway. Tommy Lee, Gilby Clarke, and the old bass guy for Metallica? Sounds like a winner to me.
