I never thought I would say this but Maracaibo so much wordy mcword.
hezzer.. Sorry to be so clueless?
But Mcwhat are you talking wordy mcabout?
griz:
That’s it, really. This year’s bunch has little charisma and less overall talent than last year’s group. It makes for a dull show. I don’t really pay the show that much attention any more. It’s on, so I hear the performances (and I can’t resist watching Sanjaya, but not becuase he’s so good!) Of all th3e guys this year, I wouldn’t buy a CD or a concert ticket for any of them. Actually, I think Taylor put his finger on it recently when he said that the show is as much about the visual performance as the singing performance. That’s what’s truly lacking this year.
There are past Idols who I have loooooved. There are a few which I cannot stand.
Year in and year out, however, I am a fan of this cheesy show!
I admit that there have been more scintillating years than Season 6, but who cares??!! It’s still the best teevee out there. I have wasted more hours than I can count cheering and jeering and snarking and complaining…and I plan to continue doing so as long as the show is on the air.
And I plan to snark away here at the best damned AI blog on the planet as long as mj keeps the light on.
OHMYHECK, JJ! Thanks for the Johnny Cash ‘Hurt’ link - I wasn’t expecting it to be what it was. Loved it!
I’m more with Griz here. I still love this cheesy show, but am biding my time with it, rather how I felt in dismal season three - although there at least I had a clear favorite in the top 12. I feel about this season like I did then after he was “voted out” (IT WAS FIXED!!!!!! Heh) way too early.
Bucky guests on GAC Top 20 Countdown starting at 8pm ET tonight and repeating I believe at 1am ET. This show repeats daily several times all week. Kellie Pickler will guest on it next Friday night. Bucky is also on Grand Old Opry tomorrow night which will be on TV. Its either 7pm or 8pm ET and it repeats also.
Oh My Heck????
Shall I pass you the green jello?
ROFLMAO
I actually got in an argument with someone over Cash’s Hurt, they kept trying to insist it was his song, and i was like no..it’s a nine inch nails song. There’s something different about just doing a cover, and a good cover, a cover to me is just singing the song note for note, a good cover is changing the song musically to make it sound different but still refreshing and new (aka my bf elvis presley)
platinumgray……..bless you for that really cute video from the Ct. station.
I LOVE SEASON 6.
I LOVE BLAKE LEWIS.
GO TEAM PLAID!
That is all.
Here ya go, Cat: OHMYHECKI’MNOTBELIEVINGIT!!
Don’t forget the shaved carrots in the Jello please.
I love Season 6 as well. I see no lack of charisma or talent. It’s just different from last year (which was not my favorite year - far from it though I loved it as well). To each their own, I guess.
I don’t love season 6, but i don’t think its as horrible as some people make it out to seem, theres a lot of talent this year. My favs right now are Jordin and Blake, the others i could do without, same last year with Kat, i just tuned in to watch her and make sure she was safe and then after that i was done
platinumgray - thanks for that link - oh how I wish I had more of The Fall performance!!! Geesh! Wonderful video.
I love Cat. This is the best idea I’ve heard all day.
Maracaibo - what do you want Blake to sing this week? I think if he picks a great song, he could really blow the roof off the place. I can see him working the Latin flair!
shaved carrots…..check
Us exmos gotta stick together
cat, you’re psychic!
Hey listen, I sew prolly 10 or 12 pair of simple plaid or camo pants every month for my kids and their friends….it’s easy-peasy….I could do it in my sleep. Only takes like 2 yards of fabric and about an hour from start to finish.
Cheap too!
Hmm….perhaps us Sanjaya-likers will get paisley for our pants. He seems like a paisley kind of guy.
Go Team Paisley!
Methinks Latin theme week may just do him in though.
But then you’d need my measurements, eh? I don’t know if I’m willing to part with those. ;)
Great idea though… *makes note to look for plaid clothing*
Now I just have to convince Spense to go to the concert with a total fangirl and wear plaid too. ;)
Speaking of cats, I just had my sweet little girl Casey fixed yesterday, the feisty, dainty female. Then my vet informed me that “she” was a “he” (!). Some farmer’s wife tells you it’s a girl, you believe her, you don’t keep checking (she/he’s really furry).
Blew my mind a bit.
This might be a good pick for Blake this week:
Obsession (No Es Amor) - Frankie J
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVK9emHIDYM
On second thought, that might be better for Chris R. Or how ’bout this for Chris?
Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche) - 98 Degrees
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MQg4eBiP6s
I’m still crossing everything that Blake will sing “Smooth”…and he BETTER get the freaking pimp spot.
And, I hope J-Lo doesn’t get too jealous of Blake’s ass.
I don’t know if I want to go to the tour this summer…for me it will depend on how high Blake places I guess.
I haven’t seen plaid pants in year — nobody in my area wears them at all, and my grown kids would die if they had to wear them!
Na, don’t need measurements….
Just S, M, L. or in my case OMG is your ass really THAT BIG.
Hey, how ’bout plaid muu muus?!
Lol…really LOUD plaid mumuus!
We had a contest in my reenactor group a few years ago to come up with the most loud, obnoxious renaissance clothing ever….
It was so fun!
Word!!! Pretty please Blake? Pretty please with a cherry on top?
Move over JLo. Blake’s ass is MUCH better.
OMG, someone stop me. The inner fangirl has been unleashed and she WILL NOT GO AWAY!
Damn you, Ryan Star. I was not like this before you appeared on my tv screen with that damn piano! Damn you!
Sarah: You and I are definitley on the same boat. Word girl!
Why does Blake have to be so HOT!
Anyways, I also hope he sings SMOOTH.. That would be awesome for him…… Pimp spot please! It is way overdue.
I hope Santana clears his songs, or did Rob Thomas write it?
TEAM PLAID!
Heads up E fans. Cute pic and album review on page 53 of the new People. Also, JPL on page 131, MJ.
From your lips to Blake’s ears. Ever since I heard of Latin week, this was my very first thought and I cannot let it go (though I love people suggesting Daddy Yankee because that would be hilarious). Smooth would fit him so well and guarantee a pimp spot. Actually, anything Santana would work. Step away from the Ricky Martin, Enrique, Macarena and Mambo No. 5.
At the very least though he will be in the 2nd half of the show - or else, I know someone is intentionally sabotaging his chances.
I think I may go to the tour this year. I think Blake will place fairly high.
My pick for sanjaya:

He could dress the part…
PJ, that was GREAT! Loved the video and the guys’ sense of humor.
Santana feat. Rob Thomas - “Smooth”
http://youtube.com/watch?v=gpX97eg-W-k
“Smooth” was written by: SHUR, ITAAL and THOMAS, ROBERT KELLY
Glad you liked it longsong. :)
I like Smooth for Blake, but I can also see him doing something interesting with Santana’s “Evil Ways.” It has a great beat.
ETA: This is the song, but not the band.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=YC0j_tQygCA
I could really see him make this his own. :)
I’m watching Vh-1 One Hit Wonders right now, Gerardo is singing “Rico Suave”. (Hint,hint Sanjaya)
jersey, lol. I think Sanjaya has to walk a think line so that he can be a little over the top, but not totally mock the show.
I’m guessing Brasilian (Portuguese) music counts as “Latin” too doesn’t it? I can’t find the Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 version of “Mais Que Nada” on YouTube. I’d love to hear Melinda do this.
Here’s one cover. Too bad American Idol doesn’t have a pretty backup boy band. Heh.
Talking about Jlo. This is what you guys should expect from her on Wednesday’s results show performance.
She doesn’t has the best voice but I think she can really perform.
Check it out.

JJ Thanks for posting this. That was one powerful performance.
Latin night ; Suckjaya should do the Banana Boat song so when he sings the chorus ” daylight come and me wanna go home” maybe voters would listen and send him home.He could do a Carmen Miranda thing with his hair , just add some fruit.
Most of the idol wannabes will probably sing better than J-Lo . Her singing ability has always been so over-rated .
Ya think anyone will sing LaBamba ?
Have any of you heard the Brooks and Dunn song called ” My Heart is Lost to You” ? It was a hit for them a few years ago. It has a latin beat but if Simon even got a hint that it was sang by country artists he would hate it and anyone who would sing it. Toni Braxton also did some songs with a latin beat that were pretty good. She can really play spanish guitar well.
