"This Is My Now" was the winner of a nation-wide songwriter competition, yielding 40,000 entries. John "Iggy" Taylor, a Hockessin resident who entered his own song into the competition, thought his tune was seemingly lost in the musical abyss of "American Idol." However, little did he know that "Idol" producers had plans for his musical genius and that of several more of the overlooked entries. The 10-song album titled Hits They Missed! was released early this winter, featuring Taylor's foot-tapping tune, "My Turn This Time," a country-sounding song about pushing forward in "a world that often says no." Taylor, who is in his 50s, has been playing piano, organ and bass guitar since he was a teenager, when he attended Claymont High School. Since then, he has made five albums under the one-man band of Bad Betsy. For now, Taylor is busy rocking out in Too Little Time, a band that plays in New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania Delaware Today Magazine © Copyright December 2007, Matt Amis Of Head Bangers and Hamburgers A Hockessin Burger King worker lands his song on an “American Idol” CD . Last spring, about 38 million people tuned in to the season finale of “American Idol,” the cultural juggernaut featuring an acerbic British guy yelling at a bunch of semi-talented young singers. Meanwhile, a rocker from Hockessin named Iggy was just hoping for a shot. John “Iggy” Taylor, a local rocker who’s shuffled around in a band called Too Little Time, entered a song he wrote into American Idol’s first songwriting contest. The winning singer would belt out the winning song during the finale. Taylor and his twangy tune, “My Turn This Time,” didn’t make the cut. But his song didn’t go unnoticed. Oakland record label Melodies That Matter plucked the song from the “Idol” dis pile and included it in a compilation CD, “Hits They Missed! —Songs Not Fit for an Idol (Or So They Say).” “The song is about dealing with every day,” Taylor says. “You get up and hear about people being better than you, being prettier than you. I just wanted to say, if it’s up to me, it’s up to me.” Taylor, 54, is an unapologetic headbanger, but hoped his saccharine country tune would appeal to a wider audience. Now it can. Jordin Sparks must feel totally embarrassed for having missed out. .
