Idolites –
I have to say that the show last night was pretty awesome. It makes you wonder why the judges don’t select songs for the contestants earlier in the competition. Just think if Lil Rounds actually had some guidance on what to pick.
As for the competition…
DANNY – Dance Little Sister…a great selection from Paula! Great song and perfect choice for Danny’s vocal style. I thought he did a solid performance, with the right amount of movement. I didn’t think his “dancing” was even worth noting, much less having the judges get in a tizzy over. It was by no means in the Taylor Hicks league.
KRIS – Here is where I lose all credibility for writing this blog. I think I am the only person in America (including my 7-year old son) that has never heard this song. So, from that standpoint, it sounded original to me. I have to say that sitting behind the piano at this stage of the competition was a mistake. Especially since it really wasn’t relevant to the performance. Maybe if he had stripped it down and had no backup band it would have been better, but it didn’t seem as if he was connecting. Did you notice the little bit of nail polish he was wearing in his video…that alone could lose him votes. The nail polish is for Adam.
ADAM – How about this? Declare Adam the winner tonight and let him sing all six songs next week! Simon picks a great song and Adam delivers…again. I can’t say much more. He is so far ahead with his ability it would be a crime if he wasn’t there next week.
DANNY – So he goes out on a limb and sings a song that Taylor Hicks sang. However, he mixes it up and delivered a killer performance. When I’m filling out my pools, I always narrow the field down to the few contestants that I feel can deliver a performance that gives me “goosebumps”. I had goosebumps. He deserves to be in the finals.
KRIS – I’m beginning to understand Kris’ appeal a bit more now. He sings songs that the kiddies know and enjoy. Again, he does a song I have never heard (the only good thing coming from this is the amount of comments I am sure to get about my lameness on current music). This performance was much better than the first. Kara was a little overboard and calling him “brave”. Like he was the first person to go “unplugged” this season (or any season). Again, I can see him selling records (that I will obviously never hear). What was up with the toght, black sparkly shirt? People say that he and Adam can’t stand each other, but I think Adam has been coaching him on his fashion.
ADAM – Of course, as a 40-year old white guy, I was hoping for a more classic Aerosmith song, but Adam is smart and decided to appeal to people that will actually dial votes for him. Wouldn’t it have been awesome if he sang Dream On though? Just to say, “Hey, Danny, here is how it should have been done.”. The background vocals in the first part of the song were way too loud, so I was getting distracted,. Adam once again finishes like no other Idol contestant ever and kills it.
Adam has truly taken the season by storm. He was on the cover of EW this week and Simon actually gave him a standing ovation this year AND he begged America to vote for him last night. Two things he has NEVER done on the show before.
Even though it would serve my pool better to have Danny win, I am rooting for Adam. At the very least he has to make the finale next week. Simon was wrong in saying it would be one of the biggest upsets in Idol history. It would be THE biggest upset…and we would all suffer not being able to see him do three songs next week.
