Holy shit did William Hung gain some weight or what?! o0;;;

[Hawk 34 0]

I'm betting Taylor busts out something unexpected like Jay-Z or something.

 

Well...okay? What?

[Yuna_Firerose 0]

Heh heh. When it said "Trouble" I thought "What the...He's going to sing Pink?!"

 

Whoah. He's the best vocal so far... proving that keeping him after that dance catastrophe from last night was a good, very good, call.

[Hawk 34 0]

I think this might be Taylor's best performence yet, it wasn't earth shattering but considering how different it was from the other song selections tonight.

 

Did Randy and Simon do a double turn?

Mandisa is going to KILL this song.

 

Actually she didn't, which is odd considering I'm sure she's sang it at least 100 times.

[Yuna_Firerose 0]

I...agree...with...Paula.

 

Ye gods, this is wrong so so wrong!

 

Simon, save my thinking! ....Yes! And he does ^^ I agree with Simon.

 

"This is all a bit pop star" Er. Right. D'uh...

 

"Never in a million years could Clay pull that off!" Yeah, right. It's the type of thing he would wear.

 

Yay! Another good vocal!

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I am with Simon on the look thing. I knew the Clay comparison was going to be made.

 

Good performance though. I just am waiting for him to hit it out of the park, and he hasn't yet.

 

Oh Jesus...

[Hawk 34 0]

Mandisa, just raised the fucking platform to unreachable levels for everyone else. (to jump off).

 

I just did not like that.

[Yuna_Firerose 0]

Church of Mandesa

 

WHAT. THE FUCK?!?!

 

0_0;;;;;

[naiwf 0]

Mandisa ruined it by trying to church up the intro and running out of breath. I think she just fucked herself which is admirable considering how big she is

I'm pretty secure in my expecations that Chris does a Creed song but I'm not sure about Katharine.

[Hawk 34 0]

Chris, finally admits the Live love.

[starvenger 0]

So far:

 

Lisa - 3 - Finally connected with the audience, but was flat throughout.

Kellie - 4 - Aqua would've been better

Ace - 0 - Oh my, that was horrible. So, so, horrible.

Taylor - 6 - Not bad

Mandisa - 6.5 - best of a bad lot so far.

[Hawk 34 0]

I was right, which isnt a surprise.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I love American Idols idea of "edge"

 

CRAZY CAMERA ANGLES AND ZOOMS!!!!!!!!! BLURS! METALLIC! BRIGHT FLASHING LIGHTS!

[naiwf 0]

That's the best so far for me. He could easily be on the radio tomorrow fronting a band, or solo.

[The Mandarin 0]

What the fuck is Paula talking about?

 

What if she has brain damage?

[Hawk 34 0]

Creed is too "hard" for AI? Jesus christ. He should have done My Sacrifice instead.

[Hawk 34 0]

Okay, I'm not feeling any of this from Katharine.

[Yuna_Firerose 0]

What the fuck is up with Randy tonight? Geez...he's pissed off with everyone.

 

Okay, now Simon is contradicting himself. First he dissed the "pop school" kinda thing and now he's hating on the rock choice when that's practically all Chris has ever chosen. It just doesn't make sense. "This is American Idol" ...yeah? What, no Americans like Creed. Wait, aren't Creed American?

 

Geez...

[naiwf 0]

How is it that this group did a lot better with songs from the '50s than the last 6 years?

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

That actually hurt my ears at points.

Geez...

 

I guess the fact, amazingly enough as Chris pointed out Creed's Human Clay which has What If? sold 11 million. Wasn't convincing enough to be americanized.

[The Mandarin 0]

I actually thought Simon would say something to the effect of "pack your bags".

 

That wasn't an "easy listening" song.

[Hawk 34 0]

Well think about it, songs like "Walk the Line" has been covered many times.

 

There's multiple versions to draw inspiration from so they can switch it around. Using songs released in the last 6 years, where there's not likely to be covers yet makes them uncomfortable changing it. Also, we're still used to the regular versions.

I'm sure Americans love to admit that as much as Canadians like to admit that Celine Dion is Canadian...

Someone must have pissed in Randy's corn flakes tonight.

I didn't mean the styles, I meant that almost everyone tonight completely sucked ass vocally. I guess Elliott getting the last spot didn't necessarily mean as much as I thought it might.

 

When Bucky (who I actually like) is sounding better than almost everyone else, you know it was a weird night.

[Black Lushus 0]

man Bizzaro Night on American Idol tonight...pretty cruddy show.

[Yuna_Firerose 0]

Oh good go NO!!!

 

She's gonna fuck this up so many ways...
