2. I never said Bocelli is without talent, I merely said I thought he is not as talented as others with whom he is compared. Also, see above regarding the blindness factor.

I'm not saying he got famous because he is blind, but I don't like how they have emphasized this fact in marketing him. It doesn't matter whether he is blind or not; all that should matter is whether he can sing.

5. Do you have nothing better to do with your time than troll Livejournal looking for random journals to be rude on just because people state an opinion contrary to your own? Very mature.
