I got hooked on Clay the first time I saw his audition, purely by chance I must say since I was never interested in the previous American idol. I was moved by his sweet dorky appearance and his personality, and then he sang. To hear such an extraordi...nary voice coming from such a skinny body left me speechless. This is when I decided to watch the show religiously every week. Im so proud I got to witness the birth of a legend. Clays voice is a gift to us all. I dont remember when was the last time I bought a music CD. My teeny boppers days are long gone. But I know Ill buy everything Clay throws at us. I cant get enough of his voice. Its magical, extraordinary, heavenly, I wish there were a better word to express what his voice does to my soul. Its almost like a religious experience. Maybe thats what people felt when they heard Elvis for the first time. Clay will be as big if not bigger than Elvis. He already has fiercely devoted fans from all over the world which is probably unheard of for somebody who was totally unknown just a few months ago. His caring personality, his humility, his cluelessness as to why people love him so much makes him even more endearing. This young man is such an inspiration and a wonderful example for our children, and Ill be sure to contribute to his favorite charities. Clay, I know you dont understand why, but we love you because you bring joy and hope into our life in difficult and dark times. You help us chase away hopelessness and bring us comfort, faith and strength. You are Gods gift to us all. Read more Less
