	Scott Savol stays alive on ‘Idol’ - American Idol - MSNBC.com
		Last year's beneficiary was John Stevens, the teenage crooner who brought the Rat Pack sound to an audience that tends to be aware of that musical era only when they're forced to listen to their parents' or grandparents' old record collection.
		The point is, Stevens was likeable, and even when the judges criticized him, it was hard not to want to vote for him out of commiseration.
		John Stevens was the boy next door, but Scott Savol's more like the guy two doors down who's always a lot of fun to have at the neighborhood barbecue, but not the person you want your kid hanging around with by the grill.

		Stevens gets minimal points for attempting to present a modicum of personality on stage, but his voice was not suited for the song.

		as for john stevens, people need to realize that he has a great voice....just because his song choice and style is different from the popular appeal of this generation, that doesn't mean he can't be this year's idol.

	Blogcritics.org: American Idol: John Stevens: Next Chairman of the Board?
		John was produced---excellently, to be exact---by Steve Tyrell, with David Foster at the executive producer's desk.
		If John Stevens does emulate his musical icons, namely the Chairman of the Board, while bringing his own red-headed, baby-faced, buttah-voiced, Buffalo charm to his tunes, it will be all good.
		Plus John learned it at the foot of someone (his grandfather) who had listened to it all his life and who still had a deep---and many-decade-old---love for it.
