Why him? He has hardly written any songs for them... If it's for the vocals, allright then.

Really? Well, I don't know much about the band but I have listened to a lot of it so yeah, it's for the vocals.
 
idols are dumb, they can let you down within one album and no one is perfect...but if I had to choose, I would say King Diamond, while not perfect he has alot of interesting things to say about life and usually, his lyrics are very creative
