So I decided (since I am here, bored, and have absolutely nothing going on right now) to collect some things from people (not hardcore Matt fans like us) and bring a little of their point of view on Matt over here:
From Iheartdannygokey.com
"It is a very slow day today. We are all waiting on news about a contract. It sounds like some of the other idols are now hinting that they are going to be signing soon. Megan said something good is about to happen. I have a feeling Matt has something going on, he seems especially happy and chatty, I know Sarver said he is working on his music for an upcoming album. Scott already knows the title of his new album – he already has a publisher that has worked with his family on albums that they put out in the past. We should start hearing news from some of them soon. Hopefully Danny’s will come soon."
From ONTD_AI:
Giraud has drawn a mix of reviews, generally positive.
I swear Matt has been the Idol that reviewers have constantly been raving about, and saying that he was surprisingly one of the best of the night?
I haven't seen any bad reviews of Matt.

After going on a tour performance watching spree a few days ago, which included watching many Matt videos, I have a lot more respect for him as a performer. He’s charismatic, exciting to watch, and his piano playing is great.

Awesome video!!!! I'm a diehard Glambert but I have to say after seeing Matt live last night I've become a fan. He is one hell of a musician and performer! He owned that stage!! 5 STARS!!
It cheers me up to see those who aren't as invested in every word uttered by Matt so sure of his talent, and able to see him being signed. Sometimes it takes an outsider to make things a little more clear.
