Australian Idol is almost over. Wednesday is the final show. After that this site can return to normal. The question on every Aussie idol fan's lips is - 'who will win?' Will it be Guy Sebastian or will it be Shannon Noll?
Since I started posting on the topic we've had about 7500 hits on my Aus Idol pages and have 396 comments on them. I thought I'd wade through them and see who the favorite is based on them. Each person only got one vote (ie double or triple commenters only got counted once). The results of this little polls were
GUY 63%
Shannon 37%
This is also reflected in this poll.
Maybe thats a hint of things to come?

I totally agree Anna, I think that Shannon is still in with a good chance of winning this competition. His main attribute is how unique his voice is - think about it - how many male rock singers were there that auditioned?
Good luck to both shannon and guy - but for this competition I'm a softy for the underdog.........GO SHAN!!

Josh and I really get into watching American Idol, we love it!

Darren,
I liked it when you said, "After that this site can return to normal"!!! Judging by the number of comments in other topics, I'm assuming you really didnt want it to be back to normal....anywayz im sure it will be busy again when aus idol returns next year (well i hope it does)

The finalists are certainly finding out what 'fame' has to offer. Over the past week Guy has had to deny that he is gay and defend the fact that he is still a virgin. Hey fellas - time to kiss your private lives goodbye.

I think Guy should win Australian Idol cause he is such a music freak. Give him any song and he can turn it into his own. So if you don't go for
Guy then you are making the wrong decision.
Ryan » 18 November, 2003 11:26 AM
If Guy doesn't win, it'll be because there will be those who assume that so many people will be voting there's no need for them to do so. Guy is just so talented - he has universal appeal. My grandchildren adore the funky Guy just as I find anything at all that he sings spellbinding. Please cast your vote - Australians will be proud if he wins and enters World Idol.

I reckon joel turner the beat boxer should have gone futher. And what a rip off Australian idol 2. But who in Australia wants to watch American idol 3. Channel ten is gettin low having to show the final twice.
jordan » 21 November, 2003 9:20 PM
i just wanna congradulate guy on winning but shannon rokz. myself and my friends supported shannon and we have done everything we could to support him. on this really gay messageboard ( not this 1 cause this 1 rokz)someone posted shannon shouldnt win cause we already have 1 jimmy barnes.
how gay.

I LOVE YOU SHANNON!!!!!
YOU SHOULD HAVE WON!!!!!!
I LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!

Kayla » 23 November, 2003 7:23 PM
Seriously guys, get over who won, guy was the rightful winner just because of the fact many people do admit that he has more musical talent. Didn't you watch the final and the comments of people? Quote "I vote for Guy for the fact he is the better singer" unquote enough said.
jinglez » 24 November, 2003 11:32 AM
well done shannon you have a true talent and will get a record deal with no worries....good luck champ!

previously, some person said this
"shannon should have won guy can go to hell cause i bet he voted 4 himself heaps shannon has a better chance of greatnes but im kinda glad that he won cause he will get a 5th of what shannon will get and shannon gets to choose guy has to sing whats given to him.
oh and guy is up himself."
That's a really gay thing to say, guy is a really good singer and i doubt that he "voted 4 himself heaps" and i don't think that he's "up himself" either, if you think so just because he has confidence in his voice (which he should have, considering he is amazingly talented) then maybe you should consider trying to get over being a sore loser, it's obvious that although shannon and guy are both good singers, australia thinks that guy is the best.
Go Guy!!!
claudia » 27 November, 2003 4:48 PM
I LOVE GUY HE IS THE BEST AND I THINK SHANNON SOULD HAVE GONE A LONG TIME AGO GO THE AFOW I LOVE U GUY
sophie » 28 November, 2003 5:00 PM
Well Guy 1 fair and square!! Australia wanted Guy to win and he will do us good in the world idol against all the other pplz!!!
GO GUY!!!!!!!!
natasha » 29 November, 2003 1:47 PM
Hey, I'd just like to say that on behalf of myself and my best friend from work we totally think that Shannon should have won. He has an amazing voice and is very unique in his own way. But also would like to say CONGRATULATIONS to Guy Sebastian!!!
Good Luck in all you do.
Jay and Linda

well i think guy is a fag nut and shannon is a sexy beast i have one word to say GO THE FLAVA SAVER and millsy is cool.
GO SHANNON WE SUPPORT YOU THE WHOLE WAY
lizzy » 29 November, 2003 7:34 PM
"guy is a fag nut"? what a lovely mature thing to say. why would you think that? cos he can dance? cos he has rhythm? Yeah sure, shannon really should have won if YOU think he was a 'sexy beast'. shannon is a great guy and wasn't a sore loser but i can't say that for some of his fans. Guy rocks, and just cos he's a nice sensitive guy who isn't a horny ass doesn't mean he's a "fag nut". who says that anyway?
jaz » 1 December, 2003 11:28 PM
I luv shannon Noll he is my idol and always will be
Go shannon You u sexy beast
GO THE FLAVA SAVER ALL THE WAY
Luv KAT

P.S UR A LIL CUTIE
BREE » 2 December, 2003 1:08 PM
that's cool
sam » 4 December, 2003 2:07 PM
I love Snannon.
serena » 4 December, 2003 2:08 PM
i am so relieved that guy won aussie idol
all those who were going for shannon are probably the ones who cant even sing
"coz it takes one to no one"
im not saying that shannon cant sing but come on clean ur ears if u dont recognise whos the better singer. i mean shannon can sing and sell albums but u should give it to the one who deserves to be recognised as a true talent and u did and for that i am so proud of this country for doing that coz if guy dint win i was gonna say theres something totally wrong with this country when a true talent who we are even lucky to have, who really deserves recognition wouldnt get it.
sure shannon has had a hard life but how do u know guy hasnt too and its not even about that, if it was a different kind of competition... yea u cud vote for shannon but this is about music and its up to us to give a person who truly deserved it not just coz we feel sorry for him.
just imagine if shannon won??? ask yourself did he really deserve that win or did he just win because we felt sorry for him??? its not just guys voice either, its how he uses it. hes not just a guy with a great voice but is lazy in using his voice. he works hard to make sure his voice is the best when we hear it.
guy deserved to win more and im so glad that he did. he worked so much harder than any of the other contestants and we're so lucky to have him representing aus
he is like a genius in music
And I know not everyone is the same and some of u will have a problem with his voice but I say to to u what the hell is wrong with u ppl??? Are u just slow, or something with your ears (I wish I could swear right now)
And u know what it is… its simply jealousy. U cant do what he does and hes on a higher level than u. but that just proves how low u think of yourselves. U don’t like who u are
if i swear this might get taken out so I’m speaking in a proper tone.
guys the best so bow down to something that's greater than u u jealous freaks
"shannon has a better voice" haha dont make me laugh
the only one who can match guys voice is probably paulini
i swear what is wrong with u ppl
tworkit » 4 December, 2003 11:36 PM
I luv ya Shannon.
U have a real talent for singing.
U rocj
Caitee » 8 December, 2003 6:56 PM
I think Guy is a realy cool person and a hot guy and the best thing is that he is a christan and guy made me ralise that I want to commite my life to jesus. and get baptised. love Kimberley
BabyBOO xxxxoooo
Kimberley Smithson » 9 December, 2003 11:55 AM
Go the Fro! u're voice is terrific and you can dance and work an audience so well!
All the best Guy. I adore u! U're album is unreal and I love your version of 'When Doves Cry'. I can't wait to see you sing 'Climb Every Mountain' at World Idol.
To the person that said 'Guy is a fagnut..get over it and grow up! who says that kind of thing anyway?
WOW...WHAT A GUY! » 9 December, 2003 9:21 PM
Although i think that Guy is Sexy and absolutly brilliant i Know that both Guy and Shannon are two amazing guys who worked to the best of their ability. To say that either one is better then the other is really not a very nice thing to say since they both entered at the same time and stuck together till the END, and finished at the exact same time! They also were brave enuf to cope with the pressure and last to the Finale.
Shannon: as Dicko said 'Australia's gonna love You!'
Guy: as Mark said 'Woah to you man and GO THE FRO!' love u guys. Kam.

I think guy is such a spunk i love his song angles brought me her.
» 16 December, 2003 9:46 AM
I think Guy is the best! He's a very talented singer and he connects to people through the music! I love his song Angels brought me here! Both Shannon and Guy are great but Guy's my legend and I know Guy doesn't like being raised above the audience and he want's to be just like everyone else so he should be treated like he wants, as everyone should.I am a strong christian believer and I only wish that I could of seen him singing at his church! Guy your the best! You're a LEGEND!!!
Loz » 16 December, 2003 6:07 PM
hey dudes ! sure shannon and guy are great and i think that there is alot of undiscovered talent out there so everyone get out and get noticed ! i also think that guy definately deserved it and if it wasnt guy it should have been paulini because she is a absolute flower ! she shines and is soooooooo beautiful ! peace out all u dudes ! flower power ! laterz far out
Annalise » 16 December, 2003 7:04 PM
hey all i jus wanna say that Guy is a total spunk! he's awesome .. great singer, dancer, and with a sweet as personality .. i have the album and cd single and i love them both! Shannon was ok to .. good sport but guy won and thats all that matters and we no he'll do really good and i hope he goes real far in World Idol (can't wait) well cyaz .. Cheers
Kristy » 18 December, 2003 3:32 PM
I think that both Shannon and Guy are geat singers!!! Personally I think that Shannon should have won, but then again I think that Guy will do us proud.
I am a HUGE Shannon supporter, so good on Guy for winning and good on Shannon for coming runner-up. All Shannon's fans will still support him no matter what, so don't say that Australia voted that Guy won, cause there is still heaps of people who voted for Shannon! Go Shannon!!!
Rachel » 18 December, 2003 5:13 PM
I luv Shannon. I think that he his a really good singer. Guy is also good, but not as good as Shannon. Everyone in my year went for Shannon and we will still support him!!! I agreee with Rachel, so don't say "Australia voted that Guy won" coz there is still heaps of us that voted for Shannon!!! I LOVE SHANNON!
Alissia » 18 December, 2003 5:18 PM
I reackon that Shannon is a really good singer! I just want to say to stop bagging Shannon out cause he came runner up! That is still a really good acheivement!I have a BIG family (11 children) and we all supported Shannon and we still will. Go Shannon!!!
Mitchel » 18 December, 2003 5:23 PM
My brother Mitchel wrote in a while ago and I would just like to say that David, Kate, Alexandra, Mia, Lachlan, Sophia, Mitchel, Daniel, Jamilla, Eric, Damion, my mum and dad (my family) all support Shannon! We watched Australian Idol and totally loved it! I was the biggest Shannon fan and have 6 posters of him up on my wall. Even my 1 year old brother, Damion, totally loves Shannon! I think that Shannon has an amazing voice and even though I'm only 9 I think that Shannon is a total CUTIE!!!
Jamilla » 18 December, 2003 5:46 PM
I like both Shannon and Guy and I think that they both have equal voices. I do agree with Mitchell though. STOP BAGGING OUT SHANNON! Even the BMG (the record company that Shannon and Guy signed up with) boss said that Guy and Shannon have equal voices!
Ami » 18 December, 2003 5:54 PM
I love Shannon sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much he is the best singer in the world he is also really hot!!!! he is the real winner! Guy carn't sing!! I don't know how he won??? Shannon is soooo good I love it wen he sings What About Me! is is so good...but only when Shannon sings it of corse!! and I know that he will go far! I love him!

hi guys - thanks to everyone for a great comments section of this post. This will be the last comment due to bandwidth issues. Thanks - Darren
Darren Rowse » 18 December, 2003 10:48 PM


GO SHANNON - you rock Australia. It's so great to have such a genuine rock voice still left in the competition. It doesn't matter that you can't dance very well, you entertain the audience with your voice - not your moves. (Although i love your spontaneous jumps!)
ALL THE BEST!
Love Anna
