I can't stand Barry Manilow's bastard love child. Congratulations on the new baby though!

His artistry can best be described as product.

Clay just came out with a new CD called "On My Way Here" and it's amazing. He has the best voice I've ever heard and he only gets better and better. I am proud to be a devoted fan and as long as he keeps singing I will always be a fan. He just ended his fantastic run in Broadway's "Spamalot" which of course, he was phenomenal in. I don't care what anyone says, this boy has talent and he can REALLY sing!

wow, I can't believe this garbage. Remember back when musicians actually played instruments, wrote their own music, and didn't look like total jackasses? One of the biggest mistakes people make these days is mistaking lack of talent for genious.

( Tongue in cheek, not seriously, just kiddin' around) I'm gonna pretend I didn't see those vile representations of myself on the costume party list...This elf-like tyke's manufactured, media driven, 'music' sucks of course, though that didn't stop Hellokitty from getting a large tattoo of his face on her bum underneath the words ' I LOVE'...

This guy has the musical talent of a junior high-school choir, and is totally a creation of a media that has called him a star and fans who are too ignorant to know the difference. Elevator music for the hard of thinking.

Clay's summer concert has been rated one of the twelve best concerts of the summer by Entertainment Weekly. Clay has a magnificent voice and can sing virtually any kind of music. Besides the great voice he has a wonderful personality and is funny as all get out, usually making fun of himself in his self deprecating style. Clay is hot!! They need to change the picture on this site to one of the many that show just how gorgeous the man is. Clay is also a great humanitarian. He has his own foundation (Bubel/Aiken Foundation) that helps integrate children with disabilities with those who do not, he is also an Ambassador for Unicef, and was appointed to the President's Committee for People with Intellectual Disabilities. He is also involved in many other charitable endeavors such as "Clothes Off Our Backs", Muscular Dystrophy Association, Ronald McDonald Houses, etc.

We had the pleasure of attending Clay Aiken's recent Houston concert with the Houston Symphony (Jul07) and it was wonderful, entertaining, funny and versatile. Would you believe Rap, pop, and easy listening tunes, all while being entertainment the entire family could enjoy. My 17 yr old daughter went with me and she loved the show. Clay is down to earth again. At one point I think he was getting a bit of a big head but has snapped back to being the humble, appreciative and pleasant soul we loved from the start. God has blessed Clay with an amazing talent and I am thankful that he is sharing it with the world. I read recently that Clay has the highest grossing concert sales of all the American Idols and I can understand why. We love you Clay!

Not a better singer has come from American Idol. Never off key. Pitch perfect and when he brings out a cd of originals (yes its coming), he will reach the superstar status he has always deserved.

Clay Aiken is one of the most universal, versatile, and original sounding popular music artists in music today. I find him extremely talented on quite a few wavelengths, but what makes him standout is the fact he is flexible and can adapt to anything he sings. His voice is extremely natural, yet powerful, as well as, timeless, yet current. Clay possesses amazing range and his vocals are so unique because he can use eurythmics, without abusing them. He can stay in his element and still sing amazingly. He is very controlled, as well and possesses a natural timbre and gemintated vibrato that is very stunning and very rare to hear in popular music. Clay is great with projecting and connecting to what he sings on more than just an emotional level. When you hear Clay Aiken, you know it is him singing. One of my favorite songs by Mr. Aiken is his cover of "Solitaire". It is truly brilliant. I am very impressed with Clay Aiken as a person and with his vocals.

Clay is a great singer i was disappointed in his last cd. He needs to pick out his own kind of music, that will bring songs into his own age group. Lovers All Alone he wrote it, should of been on his cd.

He might sing alright but I can't get over the fact that he looks like a cross between K.D. Lang and Data from Star Trek.

I love Clay Aiken. I love his voice, his personality, his charisma, his attitude, and his style. Clay Aiken is my favorite male singer and male entertainer. Clay Aiken Rocks!!! Clay Aiken Rules!!!

Havent heard much about him over the last couple years. Seems like a one hit wonder.

Clay Aiken has the most soothing voice out there in the music world! I could care less on what his sexuality is, I just love his voice and his character! I have been a fan since the beginning of his career & I will be a fan of his forever! He rocks live in concert! A must see and hear!

I heard is Xmas album at a friend's house & it's decent. I also like his recording of "Proud Of Your Boy". But the bottom line is that he's about as exciting as a stale slice of white bread, or a wet noodle. He's NO Justin Guarini!

The voice. The man. THE BEST!

You can't deny the man can sing and he has a beautiful heart to go with that beautiful voice.

His voice is pitch perfect and full of emotion and he is stunning in concert. He's going to be around a long, long time!

I'm amazed at the way some want to bash the man or their own personal issues... It's a sad comment on our society. I rated him 5 stars because from what I see and hear he deserves it, but out of principle I'd do it again to fight against the folks that I see posting such negative comments for no other reason that they can. Like bullies in the playground... hitting because they can.

manafactured junk!

Clay has a beautiful voice and is so unpretentious. Charisma flows. Unbelievable in concert.

That man has a voice that like to no other I have ever heard. It grabs the heart and the soul and keeps you comming back for more.

Dick Aiken.

SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS

I've been a fan from the beginning and he just keeps getting better.

Came for the voice..Stayed for the man..

His 15 minutes are just about up. A flash in the pan.

Annoyning, can't sing and needs to come out of the closet.

This is for the morons that keep rating this guy with five stars. CLAY AIKEN sucks!! He is pathetic like everyone else who is on that show. If he had any talent he would not have needed three morons to tell him so. Who is the record company trying to kid with Measure of a Man, is that some sort of hidden joke. So crazed fans who ever you are give it up it is annoying and it just takes up space.

I think Clay has a FABU voice. When you can sing LIVE and sound great it's a gift that should be shared!

In the year 2010 BATMAN will admit that he's gay, and Clay Aiken will admit that he's BATMAN. CLAY AIKEN CAN'T sing

I love Clay, he and his voice are super charming. In my opinion he is very very very talented! I love him no matter what, I don't care if he is gay or not, I am supporting him as long as I am alive!

Jukebox tour was his best so far! I can't wait to see him in concert again!!

Clay Is AWESOME! What an amazing man! I love Clay!

Saw Clay's Concert in Bethleman,Pa last night and this was Fantastic....JUKE BOX TOUR a must to see...Don't miss this....Happy In Pa...

I do not want to see him on tv or hear his trashy songs on the radio. No more gay Clay albums! Clay is gay. End American Idol now.

Milquetoast! Weenine milksop! ---- The thomas kincade of singing And my manhood is just fine he really smells the place up

Thanks for nothing American Idol fans. This guy isn't much of an artist or musician.

Come on people be honest. He does have a pretty good voice. What's wrong with young singers of today is most can't sing. Here is one guy that honestly can sing.

I heard that song Invisible. It's kinda cool. Though he sounds like he learned from the pros...

hes talented and hes a cutie. i wish for him great success.

Probably the best male vocalist i have ever heard. Good, clear, strong voice. With the right songs, he is outstanding. Anyone who doesn't like him needs a hearing test.

i seriously cant stand this dude. i mean come'on he looks like an ELF! and his singing..PSHH! my dog can sing better than him! ha! 1 of the most annoying ppl in the UNIVERSE! trust me i can hear..unlike many of you that posted here. cookie2u..ur weird.. and claymate_100--heavenly voice?! pshh..

he's hurtin

To the 2nd. comment dated 3/13. You need a new pair of ears to hear with, and a mind to know what your talking about.

Just adore ya Clay! For everything you stand for and your brilliant voice! It sure brightens my days!

He is a wonderful singer!!! Is striving to make changes in the lives of many with learning challenges.

what a voice !

For all those defending Clay against the idiots who frequent this board: The problem is, people of this ilk don't care whether it is true or not. They are just trying to destroy his clean image and take the attention away from their own questionable manhood!

Though he's a nice guy, and is better than the typical pop artist, I just don't care for any of his music.

I have to say that Clay should be on Broadway. He would have been a great lead in Les Miserables.

HELO CLAY HATERS!!!!! HAVE U BEEN LISTENING TO THE WRONG STUFF EVERY DAY??? I DUN KNOW Y U PEOPLE LISTEN TO ALL THE LINKINPARK RAP CRAP WHEN U CAN LISTEN TO A HEAVENLY VOICE!!!!!

Clay Aiken is the greatest singer and humanitarian to come along in a very long time! Anyone who is not touched by his working as a teacher with autistic children has a cold heart. I was young but remember when the Beatles came on the scene and Clay has the same star quality they possessed. If someone does not want to listen to him then don't, just shut up and change the channel because nobody is forcing you to. There are enough sold out tours (I've been there!)to show that there are tons of fans who love Clay for himself and they are in the majority. That's what makes America great-listen to what you want to.

Everyone who gave him 1 star ought to be given a medal. I liken his music to screech owls and howler monkeys. The only thing nobody seems to mention is just how butt-ugly he is.

In this world there are positive people & unfortunately, there are also the negative. Thank God Clay Aiken is one of the most positive out there & all those who see his light should remain so as well. Take a page out of Clay's book of life & just ignore the haters. Concentrate on the beauty life has to offer & what you can personally do to help others. That is Clay's message & no vindictive rantings from jealous wannabes, bitter fans of other artists or even those with a grudge to bear will bring you down. Hope everyone has been having a wonderful holiday season! MERRY CHRISTMAS WITH LOVE is just that!!

I don't know who many of the people are who are leaving comments about Clay here, but I do know that they must not be listening to the same guy I listen to. He is talented and has a lot to offer. He has and is growing as a performer and will be here long after many other pushed on us artists have left the scene. Sorry so many have nothing good to say. The old saying goes if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all.

aweful aweful aweful!

All Clayfreak has managed to do is prove to me that everything I've thought and said about clay is right. Anyone whose fansare this ignorant cannot be a worthwhile musician. Original Post: Not only is Clay a horrid singer, but a scumbag as well. People that praise this jerk for his high moral standards are idiots. While rehearsing with his backup choir from a local school, Aiken allegedly berated the kids, deprived them of a timely feeding, banned a teacher from the rehearsal venue, and then presented the school with a fake check for their efforts. A fake check.

I was so disappointed that Karen from the Will and Grace show was not included in the TV special Christmas Show DVD. What an insult. I rushed out to buy it mostly because of her song and because my husband was out of the country and missed it. I wanted him to see her sing.

I am appauled when reading some of these posts. Making fun of the retarded and christians. The negitive posts are so unintelligent and childish. I have seen clay in concert with my wife and although I am not a fan I do have to say that I enjoyed the show. He has an excellent voice and he interacts well with the audience which I found refreshing.

I guess you're nobody 'till somebody HATES you. Clay's Fans are children,teenagers,young adults,mothers,fathers,middle-aged people,grandma and grandpa....he spans the generations like nobody else can. White,black,gay,straight,religious and non-religious... I have a question: why are the posts from clay-bashers always so moronic and mostly unintelligently written? Says a lot more about the basher than Clay.

He sings with an obviously lisp. Seems to me that the only people who like him are little teenage girls. And who cares what they have to say?

this kid is a leech. i just assume the only people who like him are retarded or christian or little girls and their hard-up moms. anyone else? UPDATE: My talent is Novel writing. Clay can laugh his way to the bank, but he can't laugh his way toward talent. go ahead and spend your money. i love watching people buy pointless trinkets. makes me really understand America better.
