Favorite song: Impossible Dream
Scott, I've never watched American Idol
until you were on there! All my friend
and neighbors would call
and tell me that Scott Savol is AWESOME! I
could
hardly believe my eyes
and ears! Scott, God has blessed you with a
lot of talent
and a beautiful voice. I wish you would sing
some gospel.You've really touched
mine and my grandson
Lyle's life and heart! I've never been one
to have a lot of
worldly possessions. I
told your mom I was going to send you all
some pictures
of Lyle; he looks like
you Scott! He's had a hard life with his dad
on drugs and
never done anything for
him except criticize and tell him he wasn't
worth anything
and would never amount
to anything! I adopted Lyle when he was 4
and now he
is 18. He never finished high school but he
is working on his GED.
Lyle now works in Houston on the oil rigs.
I'm glad he got away from here. He
wanted to catch one of
your shows but they work 12-15 hours a day.
He loves
Against All Odds too.
So Scott, you have touched our lives and
showed us,
especially Lyle, to
never give up! Pursue your dreams! Thank you
Scott and your
family; I talk to your
mom and dad often and e-mail Aunt Janet. We
love you like
you are our son. Keep
giving God the praise and glory and keep
SINGING!
Love
You,

Although I am
extremely happy at this moment the mere
thought of what I am about to write brings
tears to my eyes.
Scott Savol has become
more of an inspiration than what he could
ever begin to know. My Thirteen year old
son has always been very self conscience of
his weight and been the victim of a lot of
negativity from his fellow peers. It is
hard for me as a mother to sit back and
watch the cruelty of others but it is a job
that I have to do and not an easy one at
that. I can only encourage him to look past
it and believe in himself enough to conquer
his dreams. My son has a dream of becoming a
professional drummer. He has played since
he was two and he rocks. He has won
numerous talent shows and donates his time
performing for school and local events. He
is truly an amazing young talent (not just
saying this either cause hes MINE). He has
a big heart and hurts for anyone that
hurts. My son and I became fans of Scott
from the first moment we saw him on A.I .
We watched as Scott took criticism and
turned it into a positive enforcement and
the ultimate drive to conquer his dreams.
He is atruly amazing strong man, that
provides the type of ROLE MODEL I want for
my son. My son is a strong young man and
has had to deal with more than he should
have at such a young age and deserves the
best out of life and with role models such
as Scott I know he will bejust fine.
Last night my sons dream of meeting Scott
came true. We attended the American Idol
concert in Des Moines, Iowa and afterwards
got tomeet all of them Including our number
one IDOL, SCOTT :) He made my sons whole
world for allowing us to have pictures with
him. Though Scott just sees a million fans
screaming his name...he has no idea that
each one of those faces have their own
stories on how he has truly inspired them or
touched their souls in one way or another.
If by chance Scott reads this...please know
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for
giving my son the opportunity of a
lifetime..and for showing him that though
life gets you down...GOD NEVER GIVES YOU
MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE.......and WHAT
DOESN’T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER :)
Thank you and God Bless You!!!!

Favorite Scott Song: "Never too much"
Scott,
Out of my
"ALMOST" thirty-one years of being in this
world (LOL), I have NEVER, EVER been on
that "fan-base" level with ANY celebrity.
And those who were, I was like "Ok,
whatever"... until I saw you on AI. You
caught my attention with your
introduction... but then I heard your
voice, and I was done. Your voice gave me
the chills and even brought tears to my
eyes because it's so amazing. No one has
ever done that to me before. Now I
understand the meaning of a dedicated fan,
the one's that join fan clubs, the one's
that await that next CD. It's just so
unreal to me... your voice is THAT perect.
And then as "AI" went on, I saw a genuine
person, a stand up kind of guy, a human
being that appreciates the cards God has
dealt him. Not many of us can say the
same. I listen to you all the time and
watch your video clips everytime I'm on my
computer (which is everyday). I can't get
enough... Never Too Much is my all time
fav. Against All Odds, well, that's ALL
YOU! Total Eclipse of the Heart... you and
Jessica melted my heart. Then there was
Aint Too Proud To Beg... and the list goes
on and on. I don't know what else to say,
when it comes to you sometimes I'm
speechless. This is crazy for me. And I'm
crazy for you, with the utmost respect.
Keep it up Big Dawg... you're gonna go
far, farther than you already have.
Lots of
love and warm wishes to you, your family,
Brandon and Rochelle... and to the Dawgies
that turned their love into devotion and
made some websites for ya!
Don't
forget us Little Dawgs that voted our
fingers off to the bone... LOL!
You are
loved by sooo many Scott, and your
fan-base is off the hook!
Love
always, a PROUD and DEDICATED Dawg Pound
member,

Favorite song: Against
All Odds
All I can say is
Scott was awesome!!!!!!! I met with Scott
breifly at the meet and greet at the Wilkes
Barre AI show and was surprised by how nice
he was.....I wasn't a huge Scott fan during
the show. I was a Constantine fan. I am a
street teamer for the band Pray for the Soul
of Betty. My mom and my 11yr old son are
Scott fans but my votes went to
Con......After the meet and greet we went to
our awesome seats and watched the show...All
of the idols sounded great.....But I must
say Scott, Constantine and Bo were by far
the best......
After the show I went
to the VIP after party and had the chance to
talk to Scott again He was so sweet and
gracious. He was such a great man. I spent
more time talking with Scott than any other
idol even Con...I just kept going back to
Scott you are just drawn to him, his
personality is so real and he makes you feel
so comfortable when he talks to you. I was
blown away with Scott.
I am from Ohio and we
talked about my hometown (Steubenvile) he
told me a few friends (Ron)he has in my area
and I told him how my mom and son are big
fans of his. He seemed so truely happy to be
able to talk to fans and be able to just be
there doing what he loves he was
amazing.......Did I mention that Scott is
AMAZING???I can't wait to meet Scott again
in Pittsburgh and get the chance to talk
with him and have him meet my son.... Scott
is a truely inspiring person !!!!!I hope
Scott gets a chance to read this or someone
passes this message along to him... I have
been singing his praises to every Betty
street teamer and they are all excited about
hearing him sing in cities near them. I wish
him all the best !!! Stop over to the Betty
boards there is alot of praise of Scott on
them he has touched alot of Betty fans.
Scott you ROCK !!!!!!

Hi I wanted to write
to let someone know what a wonderful
experience I had with my little boy last
night at the American Idols Concert in
Greensboro N.C. My 5 year old son and I
drove two hours one way to see the show.
(It was my sons first concert. He wanted
to see Scott Savol. Scott has an
unbelievable resemblance to my brother,
Christopher's Uncle Thomas. We were all
glued to the TV to see Scott's each and
every performance.) After the show was
over we were leaving and Christopher
over heard some women trying to get the
road crew to get them back stage. My son
asked me if that was where Scott was and
I said, yes. So of course He asked if we
could go back there. At first I said no
then seeing the disappointment on my
sons face I said ok we will try. I had
no Idea how easy it would be. I simply
got onto an elevator and went to the
basement. When down there we wandered
around until we saw some busses. I
thought they might be the ones the Idols
would be leaving on so we sat quietly.We
waited there and while we waited I
cleared the memory on my phone (it's the
only camera I had with me). I looked up
and low and behold, it was Scott walking
by I saw him from behind I cried out his
name, he turned and I asked if we could
have a picture. He held up his finger
and said he would be right back. Well
that brought the attention of the
security guards and before I know it
there were 4 of them hovering over me.
They began to yell at me and Christopher
began to cry. I have never seen him so
upset before in my life. He was scared
to death of those security guards (To
tell you the truth so was I). Well I
stood my ground my little boy wanted to
meet Scott and we were to close now to
give up. Just as felt that I was going
to cry too, out of the corner of my eye
I saw him, he never even made eye
contact with anyone else he made a
b-line for Christopher. He pushed the
security guards our of the way reached
out to Chris and said, "You want picture
with me?" Chris was so scared he just
nodded. I thanked Scott and told him how
much we loved him. I turned to get my
phone from the man taking the picture
and when I looked back Scott's was
giving my little boy a big hug. It was
enough to melt you heart. So yes, not
only did we get our picture but we got a
remarkable memory that will last a
lifetime. Thank you Scott we will always
be your devoted fans!

Song: Never Too Much
I read
one of Scott Savols interviews online. He
said something that was so profound to me.
He said its the best feeling to lay your
head on your pillow at night and know that
you're doing exactly what you love to do.
That stuck with me. When I was in high
school I had an opportunity to sing r&b,
My father being a pastor didnt like the
fact that he would be preaching about "God
is love "and i would be singing "Baby, be
mine tonight." My producer at the time
explain to my father about the money
that I would be making so my father
considered it.I dont know what happen but
after going to the studio night after
night. My father wasn't comfortably with
it. Since then I am now a single mother
that works as a Medical Coder at the Fire
Department in Brooklyn. It pays the bills
but I wasnt happy at night.I believe if
Scott Savol could make it as a single
parent with singing talent, whats the
difference between him and me?
I went
online and look up auditions on Broadway.
I sent the information that I needed to
send. They said the were looking for raw
new talent which made it more easier for
me to send.lol after about a week and a
half I got a call back!!!!!! I have
audition in August.Can you believe it? I
would like to thank Scott Savol for making
a path for people that stop believeing in
themselves. Maybe if I do get this part I
can invite Scott Savol to the play.lol

Scott song: One Last Cry
from the
moment I saw him in the auditions even
before this man sang I turned to my
mother and said to her
how I was going to be friends with this
guy... she laughed at me and was like "ya ok
des" I was like watch you'll see... then he
opened his mouth I couldn’t believe what I
heard a voice to die for... my mouth dropped
and I was hooked... I was like Scott Savol that
name I will remember... I prayed every night
after that to let him be in so I can vote
for him... every other year i never really
voted this year I was voting Scott all the
way...soon after I saw him I started my
search to find a way to be a part of a fan
club find out any and everything about
him... I so needed to meet this man or speak
to him or something.... I just had this
vibe... it was an over powering vibe... in
the middle of classes or giving my daughter
a bath the vibe was there saying i have to
meet him... I just have too.. it was kind of
weird and thought I was crazy....
Finally
found the group in yahoo and I joined it...
the day I joined I started talking to
Carol.. (She is the BEST!!!!) I was sooo
happy it was unbelievable that I was talking
to Scott’s cousin... telling anybody and
everybody that I saw about it... of course
you get those people saying yeah it’s a
fake... I was like no way...
I always
say God works in mysterious ways and does he
ever... everyone was talking about going to
the concerts and I knew there was no way I
was able to go to the concert I was even
trying to find away to go to the one around
me and no one wanted to go... then Steph had
said she would come here and we go
together... still had no idea how I was
going to come up with the money..... A few
days before the money had to be in I sold
the books back to the school... I said to
myself that if I get enough money back from
the books I’m just going to buy my ticket to
the Ohio concert... well I knew I needed 52
dollars... and i swear on my life when I
sold the books back I got 54 dollars back I
knew from this moment that my vibe on
meeting him was true... that I had to go
this was meant to be...
I was also
lucky to have gotten to speak to Scott
twice... I never get luck like this and who
knows maybe ill really get to be his
"friend"
By Scott
having his dream come true is making my
dream come true as well... I have never in
my life ever been on a vacation... and now I
am getting to go... I am soo excited and
thrilled to death... it’s something I have
always wanted to do ... and it just forced
me to go and do it... THANK YOU SCOTT!!!!!

Favorite Scott Song: "She's Gone"
I
became a fan of Scott from the first day I
saw him audition. He touched my life as
well as so many other lives in such a
positive and inspiring way. Scott always
portrayed himself with integrity and
honesty. Those are 2 traits that
unfortunately performers forget about
or it disappears in time. Scott has always
been himself and he taught me that being
yourself ALL THE time is not a bad thing.
Every week I would plan my family life
around American Idol and watching Scott
perform on Tues. night, and then the nail
biting suspense on Wed. Scott is so
different from so many; he stood on that
stage week after week like a talented
performer and listened to all the criticism
that was thrown at him. Scott endured a lot
of publicity some negative,but mostly
positive and he rose above all the negative
people. Like many many others I was
devastate when Scott was voted off but once
I composed myself (A WEEK LATER MAY I ADD :)
) I realized that Scott got the exposure
that he needed to go forward in his career
and I was even more excited that he was one
of the top 10 to be in concert and that I
will be able to see him LIVE!
I wish Scott nothing but success and
happiness! Scott has a good heart, is down
to earth and most importantly has God on his
side, he
will go very far!
God Bless!!!

Favorite Scott song: "Dance with My
Father"
Hi, I wish that there were actual words
in which I could describe how Scott has
touch my life or should I say my soul. I
don't think he realizes how he has touched
the lives of so many people. He was put
in AI for many reasons: to make his dream
a realization and to let people know,
especially young impressionable persons,
that letting yourself be a little humble
and vulnerable is not a bad thing. That
you can grow from these experiences. That
you can find yourself better by putting
yourself out there and working with what
you have. That we all have a gift. Just
give it time and it will surface. His
gift is from his soul and he has shared it
with so many. I know he and his family
have sacrifed much to get him to where he
is but the rewards will out number the
sacrifices. I am sure that this is so
overwhelming for him, so many devouted
fans such as yourselves and his
own personal life is taking a turn for the
better. He has never forgotten where he
came from and continues to give Thanks to
God for guiding him. This you can see by
his accomplishments. So in stating what
has Scott Savol done for me I can only say
"He has done much for many". Will
continue to follow his career with good
wishes, love and prayers. My favorite was
"Dance with my father". I have always
sensed that if Luther, may he rest peace,
had had the opportunity he would have
thanked you for singing his song so
beautifully.

Favorite Scott song: "Against All Odds"
I can honestly say that Scott Savol has
truly touched my life. I stopped believing
in myself, and then Scott came along and
showed me that it does not matter what you
look like, the size you are, or the
attitudes you have, only one person needs to
believe in you … and that’s yourself.
Because of Scott, I have a sense of renewal
for hope, life, and happiness. Scott proved
to me that your life can change in an
instant, if you just continue to follow your
dreams. He showed me that even if your
dreams don’t come true, even if you just
try, you’ll be happier with yourself at the
end of the day.
Scott reinforced for me that I can be
myself, and people will love me just the way
I am. He showed me that if someone does
not love me just the way I am, that’s
alright. I should just concentrate on the
ones that do.
The most important thing Scott did for me
was bring me closer to God again. I was
straying so far from God, and questioning
why my life is the way it is, not
understanding why I have had to endure some
of the things that I have endured. Scott’s
faith and imperfections made me realize God
IS watching, and waiting for me to start the
process of loving myself, before He can put
His plan into action for me.
Scott’s fan base, the Dawg Pound, have shown
me that there are truly wonderful people out
there, it just took an extraordinary man
like Scott Savol to bring us all together.
If
all these wonderful blessings Scott brought
into my life was not enough, Scott’s family
helped me learn to trust again. I had closed
my heart and emotions off to so many people.
The Savol family had open hearts and open
minds for complete strangers with one common
interest, our love and dedication for Scott.
So
much, much love to not only Scott, but
Cathy, Eddie, Janet, and Baby Balla Brandon
too!! I can’t wait to meet the rest of the
Savol clan in Cleveland!

I would credit Scott for reminding me to
never ever give up on my dreams in life.
Scott was "against all odds"....and never
ever quivered....never paying attention to
all the negativity surrounding him in the
competition......just focussing on getting
God's help and singing his very best. Every
single time I listen to him singing I am
deeply inspired. I can hardly wait til his
cds come out. This is one great human
being.........I am sure of this.

Favorite Scott song: "Everlasting Love"
The first time I heard Scott sing, he
took my breath away and forever touched
my heart. My family thought I was
nuts! I would sit (ok, I didn't sit,
I'd be up and singing right along with
Scott!) and watch Scott sing and then
I'd vote for 2 hours just for Scott. He
brought so many of my long buried
emotions right to the surface. I don't
know what it was but every time he would
perform I would start to cry. When he
sang "Everlasting Love" I was smiling
and crying at the same time! It's my
favorite song and Scott just nailed
it. The night he was voted off, I was
devastated, just devastated. Could not
stop crying and even now I get emotional
just thinking about it. But Scott's mom
Cathy wrote something that Scott said
after he was eliminated. "Don't be sad,
it's just the start of my journey".
Scott, you have forever touched my life
and my heart! I am a forever fan and
may your journey be a blessed one! You
are and always will be an American Idol!

56 y/o yeah, yeah....I know I don't
look it!!
I remember listening to Scott sing acapella
for his audition in front of the judges &
thinking...man, this kid's got PERFECT
PITCH. Each time my daughter Whitney & I
heard Scott, we wanted to hear more &
more. His soulful voice & beautiful vibrato
was irresistible. Then one day, & I'm not
even sure why, I happened onto the message
boards. That turned out to be the beginning
of finding an extended family of people, all
of whom had one common goal.... to support
Scott & to get to know him. We soon fell in
love with this young man & his wonderful
family & grew to love one another as well.
Aunt Janet acted as the family spokes person
& made it possible for much of this to
happen.
After having had the opportunity of meeting
Scott, I have to say that on top of being
extremely talented, he is very gracious &
appreciative of the opportunity that God has
placed before him. That probably has been
the
single most thing that has endeared him to
me. He takes time with each & every person
who has given of their time to come out to
meet him. I'll always remember how sweet he
was with my little granddaughter, Alexis.
Most people would have ignored a baby, but
not Scott. He reached down to shake her
hand & she just looked up at him, very
confused. I told him she didn't know what
that meant, so I told her to give him
5....which she immediately did. Scott just
smiled.
Only God knows the plans he has for Scott,
but I feel certain that what ever they are,
Scott will use this opportunity to reach &
bless the lives of everyone he meets.

When I first heard Scott audition I was
hooked. I couldn’t believe what a wonderful
voice he had and his story touched me
deeply. I knew then I had to continue
watching to see and hear more of Scott. I
couldn’t wait for Tuesdays to get here. As I
watched and listened to Scott I felt I
needed to find out more about this wonderful
young man. I got on the internet and the
Idol site and found my way to the forums and
eventually to The Dawg Pound. Scott to me
always sang with such emotion. I have loved
every song that he has done. He was always
up to the challenges given him. Through
Scott I have come to know some wonderful
people and I hope life long friends. To me
that is a precious gift and one that is
because of Scott and his amazing talent. I
want to thank Scott for having the courage
to pursue his dream and for giving me the
pleasure of hearing him sing. I thank
Scott’s family for allowing us into their
lives with such grace. I look forward to
hearing more from Scott and will continue to
follow him as he rises to his full
potential.
Scott may God bless you in all that you do.

Favorite Scott Song: "Everytime You Go
Away"
My
Scott addiction began as most addictions do;
without warning. The season began as it had
before; pick a few and see how things go as
the competition moves on. Week after week,
Scott shined more and more in my eyes,
provoking my interest. There was something I
saw, that all of his fans saw that propelled
us to vote in a frenzy for two hour periods.
For me, Scott's biggest attraction is the
passion he displays. His vocal
ability equals that of a gentle giant. Soft
and warm, fearless and yet innocent in his
performances. While so many misconstrue his
personality right out of the gate, I am
grateful for having the opportunity to see
him unfold before us. His quietness believed
to be indignation, his true self being
overshadowed by misconceptions. It reminds
me of myself in many ways; so it helps to
identify with someone. The faith he has in
himself, I wish more people could have. His
perserverance of wanting to accomplish his
goal is something very inspiring and I look
upon that with great fondness. Its a
reckoning for me to remember that we
can evolve to be what we want to be.
One of the greatest things to happen by
being a Scott fan; meeting so many wonderful
people. From the fans, right down to his
family. I consider the opportunity of
befriending these amazing beings as one of
the highlights of my life. Not just now but,
forever. And I think its something of a
miracle that one person could bring a mass
of people like this together. Its simply
awesome.
I'll never forget all the precious moments I
walk away with from this season's show. The
extraordinary things I got to be a part of
thanks to wonderful friends who remember to
call me *winks @ Tt/Trae* (Thank GOD for
YOU!! Love you!), completely balling crying
listening to his live performance of "Dance
with my Father" (I never felt that from
anyone before; I was actually embarrased at
first. He struck a nerve so deep, but when
someone lays the truth in front of you,
something you don't expect and only hope
for; the release is necessary.) the
hilarious talks with Janet and Cathy,
getting to talk to Papa Eddie and the man
himself, Scott!! Hearing him singing on my
voicemail (Thank you soooooo much Cathy!! I
listen to it often!!). Talking stories with
Stacy. I wasn't prepared for the closeness
we all have been graced to have with the
Savols; it'll be something I cherish and
talk about all the time from here on out!
Scott, may the stars shine brighter on you
through your journey's in life to help
illuminate your dreams, seeing them clearly
within reach. God bless.

Favorite Scott song: "Every time You Go
Away"
Scott had me at Superstar! When I first
heard him sing, I was in awe. With such a
beautiful, powerful voice I knew from that
point on, he was my man! In previous seasons
of Idol, I had watched and would maybe vote
a couple of times. I had never been an
active member on any message board in my
life, Scott changed that! I would soon find
myself searching for fellow supporters and
voting for two full hours. I had to do all I
could do to make sure my man was safe! To
think of a week going by with my not hearing
him was out of the question. Next thing I
knew, I was recruiting friends and family to
vote. (You know who you are and I thank you)
Every Wednesday night, I was sitting in
front of my television with my sister on the
phone and my husband by my side for support,
waiting to hear those infamous words, Scott,
you’re safe! Each week that passed and I
heard those words, I was filled with
overwhelming joy, jumping, screaming and
crying like a teenybopper! (Sorry for
yelling in your ear Lissa and thank you for
always being there for me) When the night
came that Scott was eliminated, I was on the
phone with my closest and greatest friend
from the AI board, Miss Cookie. Although we
were both in shock and extremely
disappointed, she helped me to realize right
away that Scott was going to be just fine,
that he had received enough exposure to
carry him through the rest of his career. We
agreed that that was the gospel truth, wiped
the tears and vowed to forge onward
in support of our man. (Hence this website)
Somewhere during the course of Idol, I was
fortunate to have been able to speak with,
first, Mama Savol, which was in its self
awesome enough. She was so sweet and so
cool! I had butterflies the whole time!
Then when I received a call from Scott I
was even more elated! He was so humble and
so grateful. He thanked me for the support ,
I told him it was my pleasure. I can’t
recall what else was said as I was filled
with adrenalin!!!
Then the day came that Mama Savol sent an
invitation via email to come to Scotts
welcome home party. I was so there; I was so
anxious that I hardly slept a wink the night
before. The 5 hour drive seemed to zoom by
and we were there before I knew it. We were
greeted by Aunt Janet, who by the way, is
the bomb diggity bam boo! We then went up to
our room and tried to get some rest before
meeting back up with Aunt Janet and heading
to the party. I might have slept an hour
before I was up and getting ready. So we get
to the party, pull up in the parking lot and
there is Mike, just pulling up too. My
husband looks over and says there is Scott!
I said no, that’s Mike, his brother! We go
in and get to meet so many people previously
faceless Dawgs. I was so happy to meet
everyone! Mamatene(Chris), Bernizzle (Berna),Downie
(Angi) Chipmunk, Gina, Tina, Aunt Liz, Mike
and his family,Stacy, Patty and finally
Cathy, Mrs Mama Dawg herself! Eddie was so
busy getting the food ready we had to wait a
while to meet him! We then got to meet his
since-childhood friend, York was an awesome
time. I was in awe watching he and Scott
performing...ACAPELLA of a Boys to Men song.
Together, they sounded simply outstanding!
I
felt so lucky to have been sitting there
watching all of his family just walking
around, hanging out! The more time I spent
the more I felt like these people are just
like my people. So easy to talk to and
relate with. In some strange way it felt as
if I was home. As I was sitting there
talking to Cousin Gina, I was telling her
that if Scott walks in singing, I am going
to loose it! Well, what do you know? In
walks Scott, singing! I started crying like
a teenager at an N~sync concert! Cousin Gina
was so super sweet, comforting me with big
hugs and smiles; reminding me it was ok to
feel like this. I venture to believe she was
touched by the reaction Scott has on his
fans. The true grasp he has on what our
support and dedication means. If you think
he sounded great on TV, just wait until you
hear this man sing live! There are no words
to describe how completely amazing!
Scott has brought so much happiness into my
life. First with his amazing talent, then
with all of the wonderful people I have met
because of him. I only hope that Scott
someday knows the kindness, generosity and
love his fan base is filled with. These are
truly wonderful people.
Janet and Cathy, thank you for all that you
have done to make this the most incredible
experience I could ever hope for! You two
are simply the best!
Scott, you are truly gifted and so blessed.
Stay grounded in your journeys, keep singing
with soul and you will have a forever
devoted fan base!
Much love,
Trae
