    Yea Carley reall doesn’t have it yet. I’m glad she’s trying but. She’s deff not ready. She keeps lookin at her mother and she’s really nervous looking

  • Ryan

    After listening to all the videos, I would have to say that JAMES 1000% has my vote. That kid has some major talent and will be definitely be going places with his singing! Anyone with an ear for country music should realize that! I wish him and his band the best of luck in all they do and hope that one day they make it big!

  • TNT

    Just because your elementary school votes for you doesn’t mean you are the best. Though she is good for her age the other contestants are more talented. Listen with a keen ear friends, vote James 2012! Good luck to your band, I’ll be sure to look you guys up

  • Sake Jimmons

    I <3 James just because he can sing like Bon jovi had a baby with Waylon Jennings ( for you 14 year olds Waylon is the original outlaw country singer) and The James Everett Band rocks and their lead guitar player is so amazing! Vote James while you're at it vote him in as a write in for U.S President he is that good!!!!!!!!!!!

  • http://gravatar.com/mariamauti Simple Home Living

    VOTE for LOGAN! He’s the BEST!

  • Betty Jo

    James seems like a bright young kid! I wanna see him sing wagon wheel! Too bad you can’t have a middle school to vote for you…it must be hard actually being a musician. I think your hat it too cool. Keep singing and I’m gonna come see your band at Kamikazes!! Vote for James one and all he’s such great singer

  • Alex

    Vote for tonya! Her kids will be so proud. Great job!!

  • Herb

    Well if people actually knew what country is… They would vote James cause his band is a bunch of chicken pickin four wheelin coyote huntin fools! If you don’t vote for him atleast check out his band I seen them a few months back and they rocked

  • Mike

    Obviously that Logan dude is the best singer

  • Michelle

    Vote for Carly!

  • http://gravatar.com/heatherpa1980 Heather

    Since James already has a band and I feel that this should be great stepping stone type contest my vote goes to Carley!!!!!!!

  • Luhbeef

    It’s not about who you think is cute or who has a band already or who has the most friends. That’s what is wrong with the country music scene people go with what is cute and appealing because it has a nice story or because it’s the cool most popular thing. But no one is actually paying attention to talent any more. there’s no soul in that. Actually listen to the singing. And I agree with everyone else on the page and I vote James

  • Lori Sessa

    Wish I had any of their talent, but Tonya gets my vote!

  • Bito

    i once heard james sing the song amos moses. it was so beautiful i almost wanted to go deaf because i knew i would never hear anything so pretty again. vote james don’t vote carley she isnt good you only vote for her cause she is 14

  • Bocephus

    I never seen Carly run down a stray calf in a stampede on a cattle drive in wyoming. but james did cause he is better than her!!!! and he is country and not taylor swift country hes true grit american hat wearing cope chewing country not a little kid from the big city

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000529377692 Dru Ann Thomas

    Vote for Carley # 3 she is an amazing singer and a wonderful young lady

  • Lindsey

    Carley all the way. She has so much talent and is so young for it. and a beautiful voice!

  • Amanda

    Vote for James!!!!

    He’s a great young man and a great singer, I’m sure his dad is very proud of him!

  • Jennifer

    I think its hilarious how immature some of these comments For James and Against Carley are…if you have to resort to tearing down a 14 YEAR OLD GIRL who obviously has the guts to do this and is a great singer, then you are pitiful and need to grow up. I dont see any of her supporters, or any of the other contestants’ doing this. Threatened much?? GO CARLEY

  • Jessie

    Oh for a minute there I thought this was a contest on who can sing, not who is more stereotypically “country”

  • Jessie

    Maybe she’s nervous?! Makes sense, huh

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001002426891 Jessie Jones

    maybe you just wanted to go deaf so you could no longer hear your stupidity ;)

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001002426891 Jessie Jones

    wow! Again..the sterotypical “country” thing!!! Thats amusing..how doyou know she didn’t run down a stray moron in pittsburgh?

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001002426891 Jessie Jones

    So far a lot of the comments following this contest are immature and just plain out rude…kinda reminds me that Taylor Swift was picked on and nobody gave her a chance, but she blew EVERYONE away and is one of the best performers I’ve ever seen! Carley may seem nervous in this video, it could be because SHE IS nervous, her first time EVER in a recording studio like this! She sings the National Anthem at local high school sporting events, is the star of her high school musical, and IS an amazing singer! Its a shame that you all try to make the others look good by putting her down for following her dreams! You should all choke on your words..she will be the next Taylor one day with or without the help of any contest!

  • Susan

    Seems to me that you all are showing your real age! Which is younger than Carly. Carly is the mature one here. Go CARLY> Hope you win because in my book you have already. Love ya

  • Sue

    My vote is for Tonya. Knows how to perform this highly difficult song, that is our Nation’s National Anthem. Very moving.

  • Peter

    James is great. The comments are silly though. Good for Carley for being a good young singer too.

  • Peter

    i thought it was for a “country” station

  • Fred

    Confidence is a musicians best friend

  • Fred

    because you still commented on this

  • Music

    Can I write in Christina Agulera for this? She sings the national anthem the best

  • janessa

    looove you carley!!<3(: hope you win, you deserve it!

  • Jude

    TONYA YOU ROCK GIRL !!!

    YOU * DESERVE* to be @ the Consol E Center…PROUDLY & WONDERFULLY singing our anthem

    GOOD LUCK
    JUDE

  • Chris

    Carley honey, you seem sweet, but your voice really needs to mature, and you need to be a little more comfortable infront of a crowd before you try to tackle such a huge task. Just critiquing, not criticizing.

  • unknown

    forreal.. just bc you dont vote for carley it doesnt mean you can try to crush her dreams. im gonna laugh at all you idiots when carley wins & sings at the monster jam!

  • Chip

    James is COUNTRY?? What happened to his PUNK ROCK band a few years back??? Never saw Waylon Jennings screaming out Sex Pistols…Can you say “Repackaged”??

  • JEB

    You haven’t heard that yet?! It’s a timeless classic. And most country singers these days come from hard rock backgrounds everyone starts somewhere. all the contestants have a lot of talent. And best of luck to them all. Let’s remember Music is music and it’s fun let’s all get along here and have fun and put these stupid comments to rest. And go to the monster truck rally and support whoever may win!

  • anonymous

    all of these singers are amazing! I don’t understand why people are being so immature in the comments though. but good luck to everyone in the contest! James and Carley are my favorite two and the rest are amazing as well! good luck to all!

  • Linda

    I vote for Carley, I thought she was the best

  • Honesty

    Tonya and james were the best and it is a tough call between them

  • vote 4 james!

    vote for JAMES!!! hes amazing & you should also see him perform live!!!

  • Sandy Swyka

    Vote for James…There is something about him (star quality perhaps) that shouts out “I will sing from my soul and let my voice speak for itself”..Simple and honest…Sandy

  • justin

    I saw you guys play before you put on one hell of a show il definetly be down at Kamikazies this saturday to watch you guys

  • jake

    If you dont vote for james your clearly tone deaf and if you actually consider yourself a country music fan vote for james

  • Sandy

    James is going to be a big deal one day!

  • katie

    james<3

  • Jess

    Se isn’t looking at her mother she looks around when you sing at a place you look around you don’t focus in one spot. She is amazing.

  • Jess

    What does a running down a stray cal have to do with singing?

  • Bridget

    She’s obviously the best! Vocal improv, beautiful pitch, lovely face and personality. 10 out of 10!

  • Bridget

    This Bridget also says Jordan is the best! No need to vote-we already know who should win! Better luck next time y’all!

  • Kathy

    It saddens me to see the immaturity level of people. This is a contest to support our local talent. Support your favorite singer, that ‘s the idea! But, supporting your favorite singer is not done by bashing other contestants. Every contestant was good or they wouldn’t have gotten this far in the contest. Show support for your favorite singer and end it at that, there is no need to go any farther with negative comments. I would be ashamed if I had supporters that bad mouthed other contestants in support for me.

    That being said, Good luck to everyone! I will personally be voting for Carley. :)

  • Jon

    I vote for Logan.

  • Kelly DiNardo

    Vote for Logan! Go Logan! You Rock!

  • Robyn

    VOTE FOR LOGAN!!!!!

  • kathy

    Where did you get your music degree from????

  • Chelsey

    James has all of my votes!!! :)

  • anonymous

    I go to school with carley and although i dont particularly like how she sings I dont know why people have to be rude about it, but on the other hand if she’s gonna “make it big” one day shouldn’t she get used to criticizm now?

  • Cassie

    its not about a cattle stampede or your age or someone being so immature to put down a high school girl who not only has an amazing voice but has so much heart. She goes up against people 3 times her age and does an amazing job. She wants this more than anybody. Every single time you say something about her it makes her stronger and youre messed up to think that anyone is better then her when she is the one taking all these comments with a mature attitude. If you think youre better than her in any way please keep thinking it because shes a beautiful girl who is going to go further than anybody in life. youre pathetic for putting anybody down when they have worked so hard at it. All of the contestants have a unique voice and make it their own in an amazing way. So please stop all the negative comments and give them the credit for going and doing this once in a lifetime opportunity!!!! Love you carley!!!!

  • Cassie

    and if you think youre better than any of them then i guess you shouldve tried out yourself.

  • Erin

    James has my heart. I wanna see you and you’re band ;)

  • Nicole

    wow, you’re pretty rude… just because you like singing playing country doesn’t mean you can’t sing and play punk rock too. his voice is still amazing, punk rock OR country.

    this kid has talent no matter what the genre, clearly you can’t see that

  • Nicole
  • Donnajo

    I vote for Carley/ She is such a great kid.

  • Lin

    Good Luck to everyone. My vote has to go to Tonya. Her heart is really in it. I love our anthem and don’t believe just anyone can do it justice.

  • Jinny

    VOTE LOGAN!!!! :D

  • http://www.facebook.com/lburek Lora Burek

    Vote Carley! :) She is a beautiful and talented 14yr old! Amazing! Go Carley!

  • http://www.facebook.com/lburek Lora Burek

    Vote Carley! :) She is an amazing 14 yr. old! Go Carley!

  • Annie

    Wow Congratulations to all contestants! The national anthem can b and will b sung by all proud americans (even if they do not sing) Our American soldiers and sailors sing this song and they do not need national, or local recognition for their duty or singing. They make us proud everyday. I’ve seen promotions for bands, wanting others to b proud, wanting to b proud for self, one needs to b proud of the words and the meaning. Dont b pretentious with the other talent, you all are american citizens, make our military men and women proud that are reading these comments and watching you sing. Thank you to all veterns and current military men and women. I have seen Carley sing the National Anthem at numerous sporting and social events, I believe she donates her time so that we all can hear the beautiful words. Thank you Carley for donating your time. Outstanding voice! Keep working, loving, giving,and singing with the passion u have and you will dominate anything you want.

  • Phil

    not everyone can be caller 18 now can they

  • Country Fan

    Congrats to all contestants, but i think James sang with the most soul and talent. I also looked at his bands fb and saw him singing on videos and must say it was quite enjoyable. good luck James

  • Sage

    LOGAN ALL THE WAY!(:

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=751777966 Kimberly Lynn DeCouto

    I wont be at the Monster Jam and I do not know any of the singers, but I enjoyed Logans voice the most. He seems to have the most air in his lungs to really get to the depth of the National Anthem. Could stand to pick up the pace just a bit, sounds like a lallabye in some spots. All of the singers have great voices though.

  • http://www.thehilltopsingers.com LINDA*&*JEANIE*****THE HILLTOP SINGERS

    Tonya,
    I have never heard anyone sing the national anthem better than you………..luv ya, Linda

  • Chris Kristoffer

    Waylon Willie Johnny and I say the star spangled banner is a song about America and Americans. It means a lot to this country. Only one person is in this here contest that is about country and America.. James Everett if only u were alive when we were at our top… God bless ya buddy. And ur band… Reminded us of us when we were your age. Ur the best cowboy. Sincerely…. The Highwaymen

  • Tina Sorrentino

    Congrats Carley… We are so proud of you.. We knew you could do it…

  • SuzieQ

    This is NOT a popularity contest…..it’s a singing contest…… therefore; vote for the best singer!!!! Which is Jordan :-)
