    Don’t forget that AI used a Robbie Seay Band song during their promos, Mariah Carey brought her gospel stuff, “We Are The Sound” by The After has been used in promos.

    All of this points to one thing – this year’s American Idol will be pushed to the CCM market. They’ve had it all so far – the pop/rock chick, R&B soul guy, country diva, indie/folk guy, adult contemporary lounge singer, Broadway singers, etc etc. The only genre they’ve missed out on so far is CCM and they know that there is a fanbase waiting to spend money on an artist they support.

    I’m with Chris from Canada. Yay for Christian influence on a mainstream television show. But the flip-side of that is it’s most likely motivated by marketing. We are talking about it, so it must be working. I applaud AI more on their marketing genius than their actual Christian agenda.

    Oh, but i’m really happy that Robbie Seay got a slot in the promos, those are some great guys!
