May 14, 2008

Well we have our final two, sorry if you are keen to not see spoilers, but the final two are!!

David Cook & David Archuleta!! HOORAH.  FINALLY.  We all thought it would be them in the finale anyways.  This is gonna be the closest final since Clay & Ruben!!

Next week I won’t be live blogging the shows because….I will be at both of them! How exciting.  THEN I fly home right after the show on Wednesday night for a wedding, so who knows when I will get to blog about the finale, but alas I think you know how I feel about it anyways.

Congrats to the Davids!!


American Idol – Neil Diamond week

April 29, 2008

Well I think this will be a weird week, because I don’t really know these songs at all.

Jason Castro “Forever In Blue Jeans” and “September Morn”
FIBJ:  Good to see him with a guitar again.  Is this like a country song?  He sounds much better and more confident in the second verse.  What a lame song to sing.  It sounds like hes saying A River in Blue Jeans..Lame.

SM:He sounds good.  I really don’t think he thought he would get this far on the show at all.  Ew but the end of it got away from him a little bit.

Randy thought it was OK.  Paula thinks he took the same liberty with both songs.  Simon thought he struggled and it was forgetable.  Agreed.

David Cook – “I’m Alive” and “All I Really Need Is You.”
IA: I am really glad hes got the guitar back.  He is rocking out a song that talks about a baby being born.  Umm there wasn’t much to that song was there?  He sang it pretty well I guess.

AIRNIY:  Ohh acoustic guitar! He needs to shave.  Wow I really like this.  I don’t know the song at all but it sounds like its supposed to be on the end of some big movie credits.  I think that he needs to stop closing his eyes and squinting his face when he belts.  I like the end of it a lot.  I will be probably only downloading that song from the whole show.  Nice!!

Randy thought he rocked the house and it was blazing.  Paula is proud and said she thinks she is already looking at the American Idol.  Simon thought it was brilliant.

Brooke White – “I’m A Believer” and “I Am I Said.”
IAB: Wow what a super weird song for her to sing.  And yet I am not surprised.  She looks awful in that outfit.  You can’t even tell shes playing the guitar — so why even have it there?  Paula is dancing.  Well she tried to rock.  At least she remembered the words!

IAIS: Well this is a much better song for her.  She sounds very good.  Nice.

Randy said it was vulnerable and she did a nice job.  Paula thought she connected with the audience and it worked.  Simon reiterated that he hated the first song but this is the Brooke we like.  It wasn’t incredible but it was a million times better then the first song!

David Archuleta sang “Sweet Caroline” and “America.”
SC: Love this song!  I feel like someone over 21 should have sang it with a beer tho.  Wow this is like a Broadway version of SC.  Or like one I would see in a Disney movie.  SO GOOD SO GOOD SO GOOD.  Really is no one gonna sing that?  He just ran all over that song.  How many times could he add another extra oh or ah.  He sang well, he looks good too.

A: *surprising he is singing the only two ND songs I know*  Oh my we have a waving flag in the background.  Ohh he totally squealed on that one note.  Is this the Kristy Lee curse?  Well I guess it wasn’t a curse for her.  They shouldn’t be able to sing patriotic songs lol.  He sounded good, end was good.  Cheesy as always.

Randy thought he was in the zone.  Paula thought it was perfect for him to sing.  Simon thought it was a smart choice in song.
Syesha Mercado sang “Hello Again” and “Thank The Lord For The Night Time.”
HA: Oh my god the hands in front of her face are obnoxious.  She is in good voice tonight, she sounds really nice.  Not forced at all.

TTLFTNT: Oh I think she was a little sharp in the beginning.  She’s having a lot of fun and taking a note from ALW and using the stage to her advantage.  Yeah she sounds good.  Its a good week for Syesha for sure.  Doesn’t mean she won’t go home tho lol

Randy thought it was in the zone.  Paula said too much to type but she loves her.  Simon thought it was officially the strangest show we’ve ever done.  Simon thinks it shows shes a good actress but she may be in trouble. 

Neil Diamond is totally lame he gave nothing compared to Mariah, Dolly, or Andrew!

Meh to this show.
