wtnhunt Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Think all the finalists did great. Mayfield is not too terribly far from here Jeramie. We had been pulling for Kevin Skinner too, but figured his nervous performance Monday that it was not likely he would win. Great story, glad to see him win.

Norm Sauceman Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Just don't see how he beat out the others on there. It is supposed to be a Vegas show and I just could not sit and watch a whole show of him. Just my honest opinion. I am glad for him but feel he was NOT the most talented person out there. All I can figure is he got sympathy votes because, although he can carry a tune, he is NOT an entertainer in any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right Norm, Kevin Skinner certainly did not have the best voice nor was he the best entertainer, but the man was real. Don't think that folks liked him because they felt sorry for him at all. Think most folks out there kind of had the feeling he could be their neighbor or friend or someone they know and could relate to. Seemed like a genuine and likeable guy who could very well be on his way to being a very good country music artist, kind of reminds me in a way of George Straight. Honestly think he could have done better if he would have sang a George Straight or Keith Whitley song, but he must have done something right or well enough, he won.

backwoods07 Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 He may be a great guy, but it just goes to show you that in America, you don't need to be talented to be famous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griz Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 There was alot of great talent on there for sure and to be real honest I really didn't think he would win it...

Ethan Givan Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I thought his best performance was his first. It was really good. After that I didnt think he did as well but he was a likable, down to earth, country boy so Im happy he won. Plus he is from KY so that might be part of the reason I liked him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Well he's in it now...on the Ellen Show today... Hope it all doesn't get to his head though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleA Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I watch the show off and on find it amusing on what America thinks is talent. I am all for likeable, down to earth country boys, after all I consider my self one but the TV show is called "America's Got Talent" isnt it? Skinner wouldnt have made it past the 1st , maybe 2nd round in American Idol. (now that show produces some great talent BTW) I am glad it's over and something else can fill it's time slot.

lilmisswtnhunt Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 You people are crazy. Did you not hear him sing "If Tomorrow Never Comes" http://www.nbc.com/americas-got-talent/video/clips/kevin-skinners-performance/1131369/ ? He is a down to earth ,home-town farmer. I'm so proud to be in a country where people like him can go from where he was to where he is now. I personally think that he deserves it.
