- Randy Jackson: The theory is that Mariah Carey can sing anything. You hear that expression, 'She can sing the phone book.' So if you can really sing, you should be able to sing anything, so we're testing them. That's the whole competition.

- Randy Jackson: You get a shot at bat when you win American Idol . You've won the competition. You've got the prize. Now you've got to make a great record. That's the hardest thing for all of them, because I don't think all of them have made great records.

- Randy Jackson: Greensboro, N.C., was an eye-opener. Of course, Clay and Fantasia came from Carolina. They're not as affected as New York and Los Angeles, where they watch too much VH1 and MTV and mimic that.
