Oh, I agree that he could sing...but so could 2-3 others equally well...what won it for him was his energy on stage, his personality...he developed a strong and loyal following! You have to have talent, that's a given but all I'm saying is that usually it comes down to who stands out with their overall performance...otherwise, Opera-trained singers would be winning the crown every year! Very few big name entertainers get to the top on voice only...Paul Robeson did, Elvis has a wonderful voice but there was a lot more there, Elton John can sing but his personality made him, same with the Beatles, Stones, G&R...
