I think the closest K. ever came to country was Bringing Out The Elvis, and that's probably as close as she
should get to it. Again, it's just not an area where I think people would find her credible, any more than they
do as a "pop tart." She could do a song that had a hint of a country flavor, but I hope you're not suggesting
anything more than that.

That country market is starting to look like a pot of gold for everyone. If someone with the talent level of Kellie Pickler can sell 750,000 records and win 3 CMT awards, Kristy Lee Cook must be licking her chops. I don't think Kat's going to go after it, though. She did say that "she's not a country singer" during her season on Idol, so that kind of dooms it for her.

I'm not that concerned about Michael Johns being invited yet, but if the celebrity list gets longer, Kat will have less time on stage. Let's hope Michael's the last Idol brought in.

trsf,
you are right on with that market.The audience is more loyal and not overloaded with the usual clone
factor.
I have said this over and over again.
Groucho pointed out to me the other day exactly what you are saying about country music and
Katharine.I keep on remembering a singer who started out like Katharine,and at an older age tried.A
a little countrY.She could pass for Katharine's Sister.She totally changed country music.

Katharine can do this-
But,i alway's believed and still do,that her niche is in the Michael Buble tradition.

Katharine fully understands that the pot of Real Gold is not always at the end of the "Rainbow"
But over it.

megustajake posted this at IDF, it's a Youtube interview with David Foster. I'm really starting to appreciate this guy. I love his attitude of "say whatever you want to about me, in 100 years we'll both be dead so what the heck," because he's not nasty about it, he's just saying he's going to do things his way because that's him, it's what he knows, and if you like it fine, and if you don't, well, he wasn't put here on earth to make everybody else happy but to do what it's in him to do.

Thanks for the link,Groucho!Love listening to David and learning his philosophy of life!
I'm sure that music,as well as the children's charity thing, makes for a strong bond between David and Kat.

Very true, charity and their respect for each other surely will go a long way....
May their friendship never ends....as the positive vibes between David and Katharine continues..
I pray that this will turn out into a financially rewarding collaboration...

Hi goody,

I do agree that country fans are more loyal. You being a Carolinian probably feel differently, but I'm not a country fan, so I'm glad that Kat's not going there. Shania Twain's hubby was a producer for some big-name heavy metal acts, and her music seems more poppish than country.

Actually, Kat might do well to consider the Robbie Williams path, since she probably still wants to sing pop. Williams was a UK boy-band member who became a huge international star as a solo pop act. (He hasn't done as well in the US, aside from some MTV play in the late '90s - although David Archuleta did cover him during Idol Gives Back week.) He then made a swing album at the height of his popularity (one of his heroes was Frank Sinatra), rather than doing so while in need of a career comeback (ala Rod Stewart and Barry Manilow). Since then, I believe he's alternated between pop and swing, while remaining a big star worldwide.
