Query: A great Career, but not a great CD

Ok - I put aside my bias toward this years winner ( Ruben IS my preference ) and listened to Clay's offering. I came away with the same feeling; the correct person won the competition. While it's a given that Clay has a great voice, his "over the top" renditions don't give me the "warm and fuzzies". BOTW suffers even more from the heavy-handedness of the production than Ruben's FWW. And I heartily agree with Randy Jackson; This Is The Night should not have been released. Clay should lobby for new writers and producers. He deserves better,
