YOU are so fantastic...... AWESOME. You appear so comfortable singing which translates into everyone listening to it, to "get it". Keep up the good work. We (all the people I sent your link to) are all fans and are totally enrolled in your great gift and the expression of it. Thank you so much. It is a pleasure to watch, listen and feel your spirit resonate out here....... into the world. Were I to make a prediction it would be this..... A contract will soon be on its way if it hasn't already arrived. See you at the top!!!!! 09/15/2007 00:54
Wesley...you are one of the ones I was hoping would make it..a few others that I was pulling for didn't. But congratulations to you! I know you will go far. You're voice is dynamite, and that smile doesn't hurt a bit either...BEST OF LUCK!!
Paula 08/19/2007 12:25
Congratulations Wesley!! I've been a fan of yours since the beginning, and can't wait to hear how Nashville goes for ya! Good luck! :) 08/13/2007 22:34
Thanks so much Josh! You deserve to be going! Thanks for the wishes... I'll need em :) Keep in touch. Let me know when your CD is done, I might just take on off your hands :) 08/13/2007 20:09
Are you? :) I don't know... my nerves are definitely not made of steel here :) I'm excited but aprehensive... This part of the wating is cool because everyone still has a shot :) It would just suck to be 11th :) Then again, 11th place in this group would still be an honor :) 08/10/2007 06:51
Just wanted to wish you good luck one more time. You definitely deserve a spot in the top. Thanks for everything, man!! You've made me feel a part of the BIX family!! 08/07/2007 21:00
Good luck to you too! You are very talented and it was my pleasure. Even if we get shot down here... Good luck with your CD and all of your future endeavors! 08/08/2007 06:29
Wesley, you are so pure country and all you have to do is sit there and just sing, and it's so amazing!!! You're not only one of my favorites, but you are one of my family's favorites too!!! What's so cool, too, is you are really a hot guy, lol, even just being so causual!!! Good Luck to You!!! :D 08/07/2007 17:33
Thanks so much for your support Shawna :) You have been very kind to a lot of people here and it really helps to make bix a better place. Good luck to you! 08/08/2007 06:32
Every now and then I say to myself … I say self? you made a pretty good entry in that contest and your soundin great and then outa nowhere some young buck comes along and WHAMMO ...slams dunks your butt to the ground with what seems like an effortless effort hahaha Wesley does this to me all the time lol so now when I join contests I check to see what songs hes entered and then say to myself again … I say self? DO NOT SING THE SAME SONG AS THAT MAN lmao great job man and best of luck in these final hours now go get the Gold :-) 08/06/2007 22:14
That is a great compliment :) You are very good yourself though and don't doubt it! We just have different styles. A buddy of mine listened to your entries and loved your Dwight Yokam entry :) I have to agree, you really nail his sound :) Thanks for all of your kind words and good luck to you! 08/07/2007 12:20
With the contest ending in a short while..I want to applaud you for keeping your self-respect and integrity in this entire competition. It shows the true person and performer you are. I'll be looking for you!
Roxie-O 08/06/2007 20:56
Wesley, I've been meaning to get by to comment since the beginning and now I'm finally here:) I love this entry and your voice. The cute little smile at the beginning is priceless!! You have shown class during this contest and I appreciate your kind posts. You strike me as a man of integrity and it was evident several times during this contest.Sorry it's taken so long to post. You have been one of my favorites since day one too! Good luck and God Bless :) Stephanie Reid 08/05/2007 23:01
Thanks so much Stephanie :) You're still going strong in my top ten :) Thanks again for your nice comment on my entry :) Again, excellent video! You have me whooped in stage presence and personality :) You're a sure bet finalist in my book :) Good luck to you! 08/06/2007 11:21
Well, time for me to go through my top five in this contest, and comment why they are in there. Well, this is easy - I mean listen to Wesley!! Man, he has got one amazing voice, amazing talent, and he sang this like a Pro to say the least! It would be hard to believe he couldn't get through with this! Trevor. www.mysongsforyou.com 08/05/2007 00:20
wesley, to you my man, i wish you the very best of luck in the contest and in the future. thanks for all the encouragement. i'll never forget you, man!! take care and God bless! 08/03/2007 21:50
Thanks Josh! Good luck to you :) if by some injustice you don't make the top ten, I know you'll be playing on my radio in short time :) Keep at it. You have the voice for stardom. You just need to be heard by a person who has taste and infuence :) Someone will sign you if they have any sense at all :) 08/06/2007 11:06
When it comes to having that original, special, sound that Nashville is lookin for then, hands down...ya must realize you own this competition Wesley! There is such a vast amount of talent here, but what people are lookin for is that spark.....that one thing that makes someone stand out above all the rest, and I think you have that in your tone...your fantastic vocals....and your down to earth attitude! I'd wish ya luck my friend, but I'm pretty sure ya aren't gonna need it!.........John 08/03/2007 11:32
Wow... I think that is the best compliment a guy could get :) Thanks so much. I have always thought that my voice wasn't as clear or resonant as so many others I've heard. I have been absolutely overwhelmed by the support I have recieved in this competition. I am not nearly as seasoned as some of the talent here and worry a bit about that should I make it to the next round, but I can't thank you enough for the kind words and support :) 08/03/2007 11:42
Wesley, you're in my top ten. I think you have an awesome voice. You always have your head on your shoulders when it comes to responses. you can tell that you are well grounded. (Also, to thank Josh and Zachary for thinking in the same manner.That speaks well of all of your characters. I asked this question earlier, so maybe you know. I said that I had noticed that in some's top picks that some had not even finished voting. I know it could mean there's not a vote against the unseen entry but it's not a vote for them either. Some top 10 did not consists of 10 entries and some maybe had voted for about 20 and etc. I was just wondering if the ones that their entries had not even been listened to, if it hurt them as far as maybe picking up a vote. I know I went through all 50 and voted until it told me, "Congratulations, you have finished ....." It just seems it's not fair to all the contestants not to ever give them a chance. I know I heard some pretty good ones even toward the end of "unseen entries". Thanks, Wesley and I'm pretty sure your career is well on its way. 08/03/2007 03:48
Thanks so much :) As far as voting goes, I'm not really sure how it works. I think a vote is a vote and if entries are not placed in peoples' lists, they just weren't seen or voted for (or against). I think a lot of people get tired of voting and just give up half way through. Basically, I'm not sure how bix tallies everything so all of this just ends up being speculation. Sorry i'm not more help :) 08/03/2007 06:05
Sorry about the stillness :) I wasn't sure what to do with myself and I thought it would be cheezy to just be bopping my head to the beat the whole time. There are some long breaks in this song with nothing to do... oh well :) 08/01/2007 07:30
Hey Wesley! I know exactly what you mean about not knowing what to do during the break. LOL! No worries for you though!! You are awesome :) I have believed in you since round 1 and you have remained consistant. You have a unique sound! Great job!!!!! 07/31/2007 07:57
Wesley if I didn't see your eyes blinking, I would think that was a still photograph. I have you as number one, your vocals sound so smooth and it seems like it is done with ease. 07/26/2007 23:00
Wes, I have been told all my life that I have an ear for music. And let me tell you--you've got a great voice and I *seriously* believe you're going to Nashville. It wouldn't surprise me one bit to find out that you made the number 1 or 2 spot here. Keep going strong and I wish you the best of luck my friend! Take care and God bless.-Zac 07/26/2007 21:14
Zac, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your comments. You are a class act. I'm not sure how this whole thing will come out, but I just want to say it is a pleasure singing with people like yourself. I wish you luck... and a trip to nashville ;) 08/02/2007 07:39
Okay heres the bottom line you have a great voice just like Josh Turner, but you have to sing something with lots of feeling so your voice will shine. Josh Turner has a great voice, but is held back by something so let it out man. 07/26/2007 15:19
Well Wes it seems you are on the way. You have a confirmed stalker, you made a great song choice, and you made my #1 spot.To bad I don't have anything to do with producing. Keep up the good work and if you do make it let see some Hank Jr. type music come from Nashville again. I sure would listen more often. 07/26/2007 13:20
Thanks so much :) You have that and then some Dodge :) I don't expect to win this by any means, but I would love the opportunity to be critiqued by some real industry pros. That way you really know if you have something or not. Just the opportunity to sing for Capitol in Nashville would be a cool opportunity :) I guess we'll know soon enough! 07/25/2007 14:27
I am a big fan. You are in my top 10 list. I know you will do well, because you have a good sound and a killer smile. I melted! Good luck 07/17/2007 21:19
Wes, I know I say this too much, you are probably sick of me stalking you lol, but you just sound so great!! I cannot listen to that sexy voice enough! One of a kind, I tell you!! You really should be higher up in my top 10, but a voting error in the beginning messed up my top 10. Never quit! I just love ya to pieces! :) 07/17/2007 16:19
Hi from italy!
I don't know if you will be the winner, but let me say
that by this song you have found your style.
You sing that in a very very good way.
Good luck friend!!
(I hope to participate in the next session from italy!!!)
PS: Listen to me wesley, keep this style… 07/17/2007 03:17
Thanks Hope! Glad you liked it :) I know I was a little stiff, but I wasn't sure what to do with myself for the last 1+ minute of instrument break ;) I figured being still was better than nervous twitching ;) 07/15/2007 15:48
Nice, smooth voice and great deliver. Not sold on your look - your look in your profile is much more of what you should go for. Don't be afraid to be yourself! 07/14/2007 21:31
I'm actually wearing the same thing in both performances :) I'm just cut off at the shoulders. I just thought the hat added a little something, but I have never been very fashion conscious ;) 07/15/2007 15:45
Oh Wesley what can I say, I LOVE YOUR VOICE TO PIECES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I remember when I first listened to your Round 1 entries, I was totally FLOORED!!!! You are AWESOME!!! Ok, enough gushing...I hope you enjoy Nashville, cause they are gonna LOVE you!!! :D 07/13/2007 22:22
nothin wrong with constructive critism like from dmpapers, but theres nothing wrong with your performance dude. Remember folks, this is all shot on a webcam, a live performance would really give us all a chance to show our stuff. 07/13/2007 20:43
Wes, you and some of the other boys and girls are kicking my rear in the views, but you guys are awesome...Ya'll deserve everything you get...Good Luck, man...PL 07/13/2007 17:39
WESLEY YOU HAVE A GREAT VOICE ..I LOVE LISTENING TO YOU ...YOUR GOING TO GO FAR I JUST KNOW IT....NOT MANY PEOPLE BLOW ME AWAY WITH THEIR VOICE AND YOU DO...GOOD LUCK WITH ALL YOU DO!!!! 07/13/2007 15:21
thus far i'd say it's between you and Songbird82. you both have what they call quality X in your vocal personality. you were the first one that made we want to listen to the whole song, she was second. she's got a bit of an edge on you because she had more of a performance in her video. if you get to do another one, i'd like to see you do a little more, even if you're just faking it. Excellent job, though. If you make it to Billy Bob's in Texas, i'd love to see your concert… 07/13/2007 14:49
Voice is AWESOME!! It seems your personality really comes out with song. This reminds me of the True Country Ballads of Waylon, Willie and the Boys!!! Great Job!!! 07/13/2007 11:27
Wesley, I just love this! Had to come take another listen!! What really works for this video is your sweet smile before you start to sing!! Shows what a nice guy you seem to be:) You sound great! :) Stephanie Reid 07/12/2007 23:45
