I’m terrified that Simon will hate the ukulele version and accuse Jason of sounding like a circus clown. I personally don’t like it at all. I think it’s stupid that way. It ruins it.
I hope I’m wrong.
I’m still going to vote for Jason for two hours, no matter what.
A few thoughts (trouble with posting, so forgive me if this is redundant:
1) Syesha made a big mistake going after the same vocal bonfire songs that Whitney-Fantasia-La Toya-LaKisha can do. She does not have that elastic a voice, and if she stayed more within her vocal comfort zone she’d have been a lot better off. And I agree totally that “I Believe” is cheese whiz on toast. LaKisha hit all the notes, and it helped bring her down even so.
2) My fave Dave is such an ingenious musician, with such a good feel for what he can do with a song, that I’m really looking forward to his take on “Innocent.” One thing that consistently impresses me is that he’s not just a master-blaster vocalist, though he can definitely wail — he’s also got a lot of beauty and color and shading in his vocal range and style and timbre. Even if he copies an arrangement, his voice is very distinctive. And he isn’t afraid to sound pretty, as well as rockin’ rough.
3) Respectful disagreement about voting for the best of the night. One thing AI has proved time and again is that it plants booby traps with those crazy “theme nights” that can make the best performers look bad. God help Cookie, Michael Johns, and the other good ones they have to sing Andrew Lloyd Webber or Mariah Carey tunes.
WOOHOOOOOOO!!! Jason ROCKED it!! Yaaaaaaaaay!!!
I am SO glad to see the mosh pit seems to have been reined in.
WOOT!!
HAH!! Kristy’s pitchy!!
Yay Kristy brought it! Woo Hoo!
Yay Jason! I am loving tonight!
OHMYHECK, I think little David’s going to get the pimp spot AGAIN.
I don’t need you all! I can run this site alone!
Oops! Wrong about David and the Pimp Spot.
I love that sign that little girl was holding up for him, “Lick Your Lips!”. Har.
*ahem!* ‘Scuse me, idolbeat. This here’s MY site.
I keed! I keed!
Buh bye, Sye!
I hope so. LOVE how Syesha dissed her fellow contestants in her sit down with Ryan. “She’s the only one here who got me.”
For once, Randy was right on in his critique. She just didn’t connect.
I secretly thought David C’s hand was a bit cheesy.
CARP!! I must have the resiliency of a cockroach. Seems I’m the only one to have survived on the MJSBIGBLOG planet.
I bet the Mariah night will be #1 Hits, since she just surpassed Elvis in total number of number one hits (I think she has 18 now). No way can it just be Mariah songs, she has an insane range.
