And it&#8217;s not the number one of the second series (Ruben), it&#8217;s not even the more successful runner-up (Clay Aiken), no, it&#8217;s the number three of that year. 30 seconds of her single 8th World Wonder was enough to pique my interest, an upbeat pop-rock song showing strong yet delicate vocals.<br \/>\nSo on the the album. First thing to notice is the undeniable resemblance with her predecessor&#8217;s style, Kelly Clarkson. Luckily, this is only limited to a few songs. With that first bugger gone, the rest is filled with a mix of  dreamy pop-ballads and soulful R&#038;B, a perfect combo for a voice like hers. Of course, a duet with a fellow Idol is a prerequisite before you start an album, so Clay Aiken steps in to team up for an ultrasweet Without You.

A perfect album for winding down after a busy working day.7-.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of all the American Idols, only one has reached Europe so far.
