Songs of Inspiration with Alicia Keys....

KC.....Don't Stop by Fleetwood...Got that little smile plastered on his face...Its solid but they will say that it is the same thing as before and does not stand out...8....Forgettable...Randy said it was good not your best because we see the same thing every week...Ellen said good guitar playing but you have to be great and it was good...Kara said something again about being frustrated..Simon said it was emotionless, sang it lazy...

Lee.....Boxer..Hmmm started out odd coming together a little..I am confused about this selection and I am stuck between hating it and liking it...Not good for his voice..A gentle voice has to sing this song and although its not bad it just not great..8....Randy said I am one of your biggest fans and you are a great artist...Ellen said good song choice and so soulful and depth and seeing better and surprising and best...Kara said you had your moment tonight and connected to the song...Simon said it was the best of the night..hmummm I did not see it but he is good..

OMG Capt Skully...WTF

Tim...Good song choice..Flat from the start and does not recover at all..not good...6...Randy said good choice but it laid there and did nothing..Ellen said you are soup...Kara said you found your lane but it was not good..Simon said I think if this was the first time we saw you we would be impressed and it was over your head but you have improved...

Aaron...He is a good singer, this is an ok song he did a good job and Ill mark him an 8...Randy said it was a giant song but you did a good job..Ellen said she could fly..Kara said watching that was flying by the end you were there..Simon judge it in to parts...if it were on the radio I would have turned it off...

Shabang...Hate the hair..she sings good but it comes off creepy...Like an act gone bad at showtime at the Apollo....last notes were good and she sings in good pitch...6..as good as the others...They cut to her friends and its different people this time and they look like the cast of the goonies...Randy said it was the toughest song and it was just ok...Ellen disagreed...Kara said it was really well sung but it sounded like a musical...Simon said I agree with Randy, the leaves distracted me..Funny she is taller than Randy and he is looking right into butterfly's..then she want into the best unending speech..I did not want to be scared away from singing it because i loved the song and to have the opportunity to be here and sing this song that I know has touched me very deeply before and ya know the the meaning of it is why I am here right now and just to have the opportunity to perform it for people regardless of being compared to mariah and Whitney because no one compares to them obviously just just I just love the song...

Big Mike...Pulling out the American Idol play book..Hero...Acoustic to start and then the band kicks in and it sound cheesy...Should have stayed soft..Mike's signature point to the crowd...could have been good was ok..8...I have not been impressed at all yet really...Randy said you held your own..Ellen said good job..Kara said not my fave..Simon said you sang it well and that was about Spider man..

Crystal..People get ready..Finally a good choice tonight....Wow..Bestof the night..Understood the task of tonight and took it to task...10...Randy said that was fantastic...Ellen said you are evolving and growing...Kara another level...you just schooled them all...Simon said that was inspirational and in a whole different class...

Doing Elvis tonight..Hmmmm, this may not translate with these little teenie boppers. Mentor tonight Glambert..Wait, he was an AI loser with no big hits? Ryan talking with Glambert and made a comment about how talented Glambert is with his tongue

Crystal....Real blues feel...Solid job like every other week...Hit it well again..leave her as the benchmark..9....Randy said dude you have energy a record bonnie and love....Ellen said you are great..Kara said you did some really good things...Simon said you did not pick an obvious song and did not fall into the karaoke trap that others will tonight..Terrific....

Up next the cheese dick special of the night...Andy Garcia...Wow Glambert told him it was boring..singing Hound Dog...and it is..He is walking around and pointing to people and stunts to make it better but it sucks...BORING...6....Randy said it was karaoke..Ellen said you changed it..HUH..yes made it slower and sucky..Kara said it was bad..Simon said it was lazy and the part of the musical that no one wants to see.

Looks as if they are trying to group the cheese dick performances by having our fave CD up next Tim Urban...I have to say Glambert is doing a good job mentoring them...Cant help falling in love with you....Good strumming..first part bad...second part not as bad..sounds flat in some parts..higher is a little better...ending was good..not so bad..you will remember this one..8....Randy said I liked it..Ellen said I really enjoyed it..Kara said my favorite Tim performance...agreed..well done..Simon said you have gone from zero to hero...well done...I have to say he did a really good job this week..

Lee D....Little less conversation ..great choice for him..solid again..not much to say about it..9....Randy said you are in the zone, amazin..Ellen said that was current and engagement and better..Kara said you went for it..vocal was fire...Simon said on the money...

Aaron..Blue Suede Shoes...Hmmm it may be a boring choice...He even said it was a good song for him....Coming down the stairs and mugging for the cam...Cheese alert...8...not bad but not all the great....better than Garcia...Randy said did not like the start but second was good...Ellen said it was a big song did a good job not all the way there..Kara said you seemed younger and current...Simon said it made you older... it was a HS performance and not original..not crazy for it....

Sobahn....I hate her with her hair up...Like it down..Glambert said its sleepy...I don't get the hair....Oh God back the crowd and mugging for the camera....Its too made up..Its like she walks pauses sticks her neck out and then sings....pitchy off good in some spots maybe 7.5..Randy said kinda good and you can sing..Ellen said she liked the second half..Kara said its confusing and I am not crazy about it..Simon said first part was bad and the second part you did not hit all the points of the song and it sounds crazy...Uh OH she is now talking back to Simon and said she does not know who she is and why label myself....Someone should label that hair as a shitdoooo...

Big Mike...In the Ghetto....Good song choice....Acoustic...so far this is my fave Mike song...9..nice job with the song...simple powerful...Randy said it was sleepy but it was hot...Ellen said I am glad we saved you..Kara said good song..Simon said my fave mike performance..

Katey Stevens...Odd outfit ... It sounds OK but I just don't understand where she goes if she wins...No one is gonna see her in concert or get her CD..Boring...8...Randy said entertaining..Ellen said it was a horny song..Kara said you showed us...Simon said loud and annoying everyone liked it so it does not matter.......

Casey to close out the show...blues song which will fit him and it sounds good...9..Casey, Lee, and Crystal should be your final three....The two guys are more marketable, Crystal too flower child like....Randy said very blues nothing different but solid...Ellen said you're always good..Kara said it fell short...Simon said it was forgettable but your vocal was good.

AI The Final Nine

2010-04-06T20:20:00.005-04:00

Ellen dressed like a Cowboy tonight and talking and Kara is yapping.

Aaron up first...Ok the intro is creepy..Doing Long and Winding Road...Ruff at the start..Sounds like his voice is really rough tonight..Doing an OK job with the song..Slow but then changes it up a bit...not bad not super great...Kind of lulls you to sleep...7....Randy said you have a good voice but sleepy..said he should have changed it up..Ellen said it was a long and winding song...The place boo'd..Kara said its the same performance and I want to see you move..Simon asked him why he picked that song..then said it was boring and old fashioned..Someone shouted and caused a ruckus... If Fox was smart they would have put the hoodlum on TV and questioned him..

Katie...Sitting Ryan the luckiest man in show biz...Let It Be...This is such a safe song to sing unless you change it to the point where its a gospel....She is just singing it..its good not beyond incredible...Her voice is just not strong...8...better than Yoda...Randy said it was her best ever...Dude that was hot...Hmmm..Ellen jumps on the band wagon and said the same thing over and over...Kara said you are confident..Simon said you got it right tonight and the credit goes to him...

Andy Garcia..well this should suck...Singing who gives a shit who gives a fuck...In another get to you know you piece, Andy is great what a friend and funny blah blah blah...Cant buy me love...Get the wine cause Andy bought the cheese..and lots of it...This song is not going to buy him votes....6...Worst so far...Randy said you sounded good little corny..Ellen said you can buy love...Kara said I want to love it but I don't and I want to see more and I love the song and I liked the break down...Simon said its like the backup singer at a wedding..Corny..all wrong..Sorry
I see him being a big hit at a fiesta.

Big Mike...Ellenor Rigby...OH NO...Gonna sing it like Seal...He is behind in the music and it sounds more like he is talking in some of the parts...The chorus is better towards the end which may save it...7...Not my fave...Randy said not all of it worked but the parts that did worked great..Ellen thought it was incredible...Kara thought it was fire and amazin and the drama and you sold it and she is nutz...Simon said I did not love it as much of the others and it sounded like a musical..Took you backwards..too over the top...Randy compared it to glee which proved Simon right...

Crystal is made up again.....Like when a burnout goes to prom...Come Together..Good song but may not translate...She is heads and tails above the rest...She rocked it..Her voice and swagger on stage is great....9.5..Best of the night...Randy said it was solid but not your best..hmmmm freak..you in the zone..Ellen thought it was cool and I only worry about telling you how great you are..blah blah blah...Kara said it was one of my fave..playful sexy and fun..Simon said that is a song that i can hear on the radio.....

OMG a cut shot to our fave idol Tim Urban with his classic cheese dick smile rubbing his chin..No less thinking who is going to sing better than me tonight and then get voted out...

Tim Urban....All My Lovin...Strumming on the electric blues guitar...Sounded good until it got to the first chorus...Better than Andy Garcia...It was not too terrible...Sounded like something out of back to the future..7....Randy said you are in your own category..Much better than last week..Ellen liked it..Kara said a whole bunch of stuff but never said if she liked it...Simon said I will not judge you on a Tim performance, I really liked it and the way you handle the bad stuff we give you and I commend you..

Casey...Jealous Guy..Good song choice..first good song choice of the night....Just him on the guitar and a violin...So far this is one of his best performances.....Could play this on a coffee house station...changed it up enough but kept true..9.5...Really good job...Randy said loved it...Ellen said your best performance to date, soulful...she was moved and blah blah..Kara said something? Simon said it was the best of the night...

Siobahn....Across the Universe..Good Song...She is sitting singing like a ferry to the wood nymphs....Its like your waiting for something to pop and it does not.safe good..8..nothing new...Then it popped at the end..they cut to a shot of her friends and one of them looks like carrot top with really horrible acne...EEEKKKK..Randy loved the outfit..Song was sleepy..Ellen said a beat a drum and your special..and I guess she said she liked it..Kara said from singing it was controlled and good but it was polite..Simon asked her what made a connection and then she cried and then Simon said it was better than last week and then the guy in crowd shouted again... and they must have read my blog cause they asked him to stand up..He has to be a part of some show somewhere..We will read about it tomorrow....Then he came on stage..wouldn't it be great if her was a terrorist trying to take down our American Idol.....

Lee...Hey Jude..good choice for him..The intro was about his bromance...Just him and his six string...Good, not as good as last week....but solid but then it came to the last part and the bagpiper came on and the piper sounded muffled so I think you lost that affect and then it just seems weird..Tried to make it like a pub sing along..8.5..Randy said it was hot..Ellen said your smiling when the guy from the parade got lost..loved it..Kara said good and bad moments but I'm still a fan....Simon said I do not know what is going on but I would not have done that with the bag pipe player...It was funny cause it was so odd.

Ellen is dressed like the Dutch Boy Paint Kid

Siobahn....Thru the Fire...Sampled in Kanye West's song..Chaka Khan original....The lower register is not flat but creepy...Chaka is a hard one..During the first chorus and the second she hit some sour notes..Not her best...Now its just her scream but that does not help when the rest of the song is flat...6...even with the screaming..All over the place....Randy said big song but it was all over the place and not your best...Ellen said I agree, not your best and your hiking and lost the trail and freaked out and not your best...Kara said you got nervous but the other parts were not there..Your lower register was not there...Simon said it sounded like you were running a marathon and you were out of breath and you look all over the place..weakest so far..

Didi...What Becomes of the Broken Hearted...Surprise he likes her too..and she is crying...Came in a bit early..Hair looks flat and she seems ahead of the song at first..Little flat at start of the first chorus...The song is coming off boring..Better at the end and pulled it out...7...Randy said it flat lined just was not great..Ellen said it was dramatic and I love you and way dramatic and I love you and not your best...Kara said it was way over done and you have lost your way..Simon said it was like swimming in jelly not easy to get through so over the top so old and so off key..She said the song means a lot to her and Ryan is trying to make her cry..Ryan is very touchy this year...Up next..A cheese dick shot of a cheese dick performer....Vote for the worst wants to keep him in so I am into it..Tim Urban

Tim Urban Should not have been in the competition...Sweet Love by Anita Baker...Usher said I dont believe you, have you ever been in love...Tim said Yeah..Usher said make me that person..Whoa...But he did sing better....Hmmmm....Sitting down..the cheese start....flat at start and such a huge song for someone like him but it is funny..stare at the camera and make faces like Efron...He is staring like Ted into the lights and singing his little heart out..Not all that bad....7....Randy said listen sounded like a singing waiter, but you sang in mostly in tune but had no soul....Tim is making a face...smile...Ellen said there is a drinking game when I call you adorable...Why did you pick that song and it looked like you are sneaking into a bed room...Kara said it was like Broadway and Vegas and no soul..Tim is laughing..Simon said it makes no difference what we say, its like a mouse fighting an elephant...You are not gonna win, but it does not matter cause your gonna smile, you don't care, the audience will vote for you, no one cares you will be here next week so well done...

Andy Garcia...Perhaps worse than Tim...Usher asked him to look into his eyes..Creepy...Usher should put a milk ring around his mouth....So far doing a good job...acoustic with the beat seat...Doing a Chris Brown song...His best performance on stage...Not great but I would give him an 8...Randy said you are back...best in a long time..Ellen said it was a hit...Kara said that is one giant leap in the right direction...Simon said it was miles better from what we have heard from you..As a person you are boring you have to start showing personality...

Katy Stevens...Another girl who cannot sing and is going to do Aretha...OMG WTF..It may sound like Urethra...She does not sound all that bad but in some parts is trying to scream it out loud to sound like Aretha and its pitchy but one of her best performances in the last few weeks...8...I thought this was going to be her end but she is going to survive...Back singers really helped her out...Not a bad job..Randy said Yo so listen it was one of the best vocal performances of the night...Ellen said vocals were great but it was not current...Kara said you found where you belong but you need to make it young and commercial...Simon said you are not Christina is not fair it was good but robotic..It was so star search...Kara's advice to you has been wrong...A fight is brewing.....

Randy said another great performance..Ellen said you are never not good...Kara said I am so glad and I cannot wait to see what you do next week...Simon said good choice of song, vocals at times were great, lose backup singers, the piano was a drain on you, but do not get lost in this process...

Aaron to close Bill Withers..Aint no sunshine...Christina Christenson rocked this song in the first season....He looks afraid...Did a nice job with the song..8...Not bad but did not move me too much..Randy said it was ok...Ellen said it was a good song choice and a good job..Kara said I liked it...Simon said compared to Lee it was like a cupcake, having said that you are not leaving this week...

Ryan out tonight to welcome us very live as he says..They had a strange day on the set. An accident has left the singers unprepared..Duets tonight..Odd...Alison should do leather and lace..Perhaps she should do it with Chris...Slash is in the house..Just never went anywhere without GUNS N Roses..Hmmmmm are the catering to Adam... Sometimes his music is stuck in the pre-grunge last stand of rock and roll era..Well its time to sell out and promote Mr Slash...

Adam..Led Zep..This is a first and it is rock and roll....Ricky Minor hitting it hard....He is starting off fast..the whole song is a little fast and is coming off like it is yelling. Its the Broadway production of the song...8....Too short to do the some right..Its too much in your face and what makes this song great is the fact that it is subtle and loud..He can scream isn tune....Randy said Yo Yo Yo listen..I love this rock star tonight..You and Slash could make a record..Kara said you are a rock God..Classic and Glam and vocal stuff and do it..SCREAM..Paula said the band sounded great and you are a whole lotta perfect..Simon said it was understated to laughs and it could have been a disaster and it was a hard song and it was good..Nobody can top it...Ryan said first time for Zep...

Alison up next...Looking like a hot mess..I wonder if Slash hit it this week...Cry Baby..I think this is Janis.....Perfect for her voice and she is hugging the mic..She is singing it in tune and hitting all the subtle parts of the song as if she was around when it came out...Nice job..We are getting a show tonight...8.5.. I think she did better than Adam..Randy said you can sing your face off but it was a bad song choice and it was just a cry baby thing..I think he is wrong...Kara said right person wrong song..Paula said bio pic Janis Joplin roll..Simon said you are 17 and where you are is staggering... Tried to sound too much like Janis and make it.. not sound original.. I think they are wrong but now there is a fight going on..I cannot wait for the first live meltdown....

Chris and Danny...Renegade by STYXX...An Interlude..First part really good but the music kicked in and it became pitchy at first but then came back in line..Nice job I am not sure if I am supposed to judge this...Randy said the harmonies were good, individual vocals ok..Kara said you are not renegades..Sum of the parts are better..Paula said its great introductions to powerful compelling things....Simon said Danny you were better than Chris...

Chris Allen up next....AK in house...Doing the Beatles..Come Together??? Singing it well.. I am not mad at him. Its a cover but not a bad one..Its different and a really good job...9...Hit it well..Randy said so you picked it not blown away but loved the way you played the guitar..Kara said it not great...Paula said it is difficult to see a signature behind you and I always see when you are laughing..an artist with a stage...Simon said I did not like it...

Danny...Dream On....Hard Song..Ya know all these singers are doing hard songs....Why is he in a 3 piece suit...Little behind the music at first... Sounds nasal in some parts and not off but different at the start..The arrangement is off cause its a song that needs to build and it jumps to parts..Doing a good job...End was just screaming and odd..8.....People love it..Randy said Yo its not your genre but it was ok but I say you tried to do it...Kara said you added edge but it was too far..Paula said go with the song that you are drawing and I am a fan of yours and it was not a favorite but whose a fan..Simon said the last note was a horror movie..Friday the 13th..Paula's boobs boobs are hanging out tonight.....

Adam and Ally.. Slow Ride..Horrible choice...Cheese dick song..Its slow but they can sing it so I guess that makes up..God its just a horrible song...The original was tooo...Danny and Chris were better....Randy loved it and that was the bomb..Kara said it was right and you pushed each other..Paula said you two are married but I will tell you duet and synch and pretty..Simon said you won the show for the duets and Adam you may have saved Alison...

AI-Rat Pack Standards Night

2009-04-28T10:09:00.010-04:00

I mentioned to Suzie that it was Rat Pack Standard Night on AI tonight and she disappeared and showed up dressed like this. I asked why. She said Rat Pack...Scuba Duba Doo??? I understand though..She was confused. She is a dog

Ryan and the Idols are all lined up in suits..Shocking, Matt has his Frank Hat on...I hate that hat..Mystery helper this week is Jamie Foxx..Blame it in the AAAAA AI if his career takes a dive after this..I am ROTFLMAO..He should be funny though....MDL just called from upstairs to say the TV is not working..I gotta cook and clean and make sure all the TVs work on command..She already broke one TV..hmmmm So they siked us out and went to commercial....I am making corn on the cob which I love so much... Back from the break and Chris is up.

Chris....The Way You Look Tonight...Jamie said he would do a record with him...Jamie is dressed like Irkle....He has a funny little mouth and it contorts but it seems as if the ladie love it...All the song will most likely be slow tonight because of the genre but he is adding a little speed to it and his runs are all in key and aside from the fact that its not what he would normally sing, I give him a 8....He has becomes as solid as Adam...I paused when it ran across his wife..She is going to miss him when he bangs Brittany at age 32....Randy said Yo wow check it out and you are in it to win it and it is your best performance and you took your time and told a story..Kara said you set a technical standard for tonight..Diction (heheheh) and timing and you are a dark horse in the race...Paula said you became a handsome sophisticated man from an adorable boy...Your confidence make a croon peck..Simon said it was wet...Taking a dog for a walk and it is safe and quite nice and incredible....Ryan asked what do you mean by wet in which Simon said not dry....

Alison up next only girl left in the competition turning 17 and in a house of boys...Jamie said she was innocent and 16 and love and time and family and flow and shocking the world.....Don't know the song but her voice is perfect for the song..Her voice is extra raspy tonight and she is singing beyond her years...I don't have a benchmark to compare to but it was nice and controlled and she did a great job...9...Randy said Yo Yo Yo...you sing like Pink look like Brittany Murphy and you did it..Kara said girl I am not nervous about you being in the bottom three tonight and it was gut wrenching beyond your years and you are going to the finals...Paula said I have been waiting to hear a ballad and driving but delivery allure and tender and proudness..Simon said do you think you can win and she said yes we all can and Simon said I don't feel it from you but you need to think it...and you could be in trouble tonight..They are telling Simon he is crazy...

Matt G..Funny Valentine and what a cheesy choice...and if you get excited about this week ya may have some other issues..Jaime said its a big song and each part needs something and Jaime called him back and told him to change key..Tell him to change the hat it must stink...Pitchy at the first word and a little flat..It sounds like he is a little nervous but getting better and then getting worse..MDL horrible. I agree. Parts are good but for the most part slow and flat....7...Randy said Yo Yo Matt for me it was a hard song to sing but it was pitchy, some good some bad but did not come together...Kara said it is stiff tonight and you need to be the leader of the pack but I did not feel like you were connected to it..Paula said I loved it I felt the connection and by lowering the key...Wait didn't Jaime say take it up..Simon said I am going to disagree with Randy and it was the most authentic and it was brilliant..WHAT...Oh Matt do not wink at us, it insults us

Danny Goki up next...Come Rain or Come Shine...Jamie and Danny were staring at each other and getting close and freaky...I like Jaime and he is creeping me out tonight,..He has the voice for these song too...but its a song that you kind of want to forget though...Sounds a little like Elvis Costello a bit...Boring song but nicely sung...8...Bringing it home at the end and really freaking out and that may earn him another point or half a point....Randy said Yo You check it out and its ballads and tempo come on Randy say something different..Said he could have an album of songs like that and win..Kara said I have been missing the rat pack swagger which you had tonight and you were creative and rasp and tone..Paula said stella stella stella ...Simon agreed with Kara. You came out and proved a point...Outstanding ..sorry...

Adam up last....Feeling Good but rocking it out...Jamie said WHAAAAAAAAAAAt Incredible..Jamie doing a lot of hugging on the boys...Walking down the Secrist staircase in white as if he were Jesus descending to save his flock from an AI night of song and dance..Once again he picks a song that most know and starts slow and now its cabaret as he struts down and like a play but this is what he does...When you hear black women sing it its more gospel and I am not sure what he is doing to it but he is hitting some freaky ass notes...Once again I cant judge it because it leaves you guessing..That is Adam..Everyone looks stunned..Randy said yo yo yo Adam, theatrical and Broadway but you are in the zone..Kara said my mouth drops and you confuse me shocking and sleazy and superb..Paula said words cannot describe you make me feel like an Olympian smoking weed with Michael Phelps...Simon said Randy sounds like a cow mooing.. I get the feeling that you want to win and the best entrance and Ryan has been banned from using it..

If Matt G goes home tomorrow then they have picked the correct final four

AI Disco Night

2009-04-17T14:26:00.008-04:00

Suzie getting ready for Disco Night on AI. Disco night.Perhaps the worst nite ever on American Idol..Front runners suck and the bottom few suck even worse...Now my theory for a good Disco night on AI is take a disco song and slow it down..Don't try to sing it fast and like the original..IT WILL ONLY SUCK..

If you recall, last week Matt G made idol history by being the first saved loser. Someone threw him a frikin bone..Ok so Ryan is all suited up and affected...Out come the top 7.....

Lil Rounds doing I'm Every Woman...She looks good in her one piece leotard..Good song choice if she brings it..She sounds good but this week you have to blow them away..Backup singers are doing most of the singing..She is good in the parts that she is but not a blow you away performance...8..Not bad but not off the hook...Randy said you got the party started but it sounded wild..You can sing but does not show us much..Kara said we have been waiting for you to sing Chaka but it was not worth the wait...Paula said I was with you yesterday and your voice is hurting but you did not hit the mark..Simon said you look sad and there she is saying she had fun, Simon said I'm happy you did because this is your last night...He may be right..Someone shouted something but I could not hear...

Chris Allen....Got his guitar..She Works Hard For The Money...I have a feeling this may be good..If he slows it down...This is what needs to be done..Sounds like the Doobie Brothers..I said Doobie....Simple acoustic good tone and is making this a song that they would play the Coffee House stations around the country..Best of the night so far...10..Gonna be hard to beat...Put together nicely....Kara said you took a risk and it paid off...Take a Donna Summer and manage to make it yours..Paula said it had a Santana feel and you like to shop at a woman's store you contender..Simon said he needs a translator for Paula..Simon said that it was original and even if you buy ladies underwear it was fantastic..Randy said you know who you are and you are ready for the big time...Could be the AI winner this year...Cut to Alison and Danny who are up next and they are doing the dopey crap that Fox wants them to do

Danny...September..Earth Wind and Fire..September...Screaming at first. Very nice soulful..solid job. A very good rendition..Into a medley of See Clearly Now..Hmmmm was that on purpose and back into the main song..Not bad...9 to 9.5....Maybe a little higher but not a 10...Randy said he was worried but said he brought it..Kara said she was worried about him as well...But she said he is a good singer...Paula said when i think of the top you go higher and the arrangement and you are agile and brilliant...and you have a sexy voice..Simon said I agree with everyone but the performance does not give star power and you need to make it special...

Alison...Hot Stuff..On the Secrist Stairs..Starts off slow and very southern rockish...Alana Miles and she is dressed in leather... Solid performance again and as good as the last two...It is amazing that she is 16...9.5 to 10 as well..three strong performances in a row..Standing O for the girl who rocked it...Randy has two things. Does not love it but you are one of the best singers in the show...Kara said you picked the right song but too slow..I disagree and you are a great singer and it was a 9-10..Paula said your vocabulary is edgy and I don't mind your authentic notes and the chart..Simon said it has nothing to do with slow or fast but you were an underdog this week because of disco and you were brilliant...I agree...

Adam Lambert...SNF If I Can't Have You..Suited up again and hair tweaked...Bee Gees...Once again he has hit the mark and taken a song and made it completely different..9.5-10...Standing O again...Randy said Dog you should show your range, you are ready right now dog...Paula said you are brilliant and you upped it again and the emotion and it is inspiring...Paula said I never question my response when you perform and you did a disco song and I felt your pain and you tore your heart out and you are brilliant..Simon said I would have bet you would have done Donna Summer and it was original and never heard it before and the vocals were spot on...Oh and Adam giving credit to his arranger..He has really changed my thought process on his talent..Where I thought he was a wanna be he is not..

Matt G...Staying Alive...O fuck me that shitty hat again..I hope something falls on that hot..so not bad but compared to others it does not hold up...Him and Lil are going home...8...Jumping around and screaming to make it seem like he is holding it down...Randy said yo yo check it out...did not love the song choice or arrangement but you can sing...Kara said you brought disco back and vocals were good...Paula said you pick songs and go bowling and you struck it and life was saved by you..Simon said I did not like it..You have to get out of idol land.It seemed desperate, vocals not great and not original sorry...

Anoop Dog to close it out..Tonight's its all the way..Pitchy at the start but mellow and slow but then speeding up and starts to lose its integrity for a second but he brings it back and its actually not a bad job..He should be safe for one more week...Maybe..8.5....Randy said he did not love it and it was corny but you can sing also...Nice Job..Kara said it was a ballad and it could be on the radio and it was a good performance..Paula said your look with the growth and you look good and real men know how to wear pink...You hit magic and you smile and your teeth..Simon said I disagree and said it mediocre at best..Prayed that the temp would not pick up and it did and your worst performance....

Bottom three are Lil, Matt, and Anoop...One will stay for one more week

Hannah Montanna amongst the performers this nite. The world is excited..JHud also performing.That should be touching consider what she has done and what has happened..Cheese dick intro and Ryan up on the stage...I really think that it is written in REVELATION that Miley Sirus is one of the Horsemen and when she appears on the idol stage the last seal will be opened and the heavens will become silent...Regardless, either then world will end or we will be treated to some of the most horrible TV on earth.

True to what I just wrote we get to hear Freeze Frame in a Ford commercial followed by a really bad version of Maniac....When they show this I just want them all voted off the island so from the shows 8 commercials into 8 more official ones...

Back from the break we are now kissing Tarantino ass and showing how the group went to Zach's movie...Oh look 17 teen again..I liked it better when it was called BIG...Cut to Zach in the audience who is wearing his too cool hat because it must be cold in the building..

Alison...OMG stop being so fake....safe....Adam ....safe and sitting down..This cannot bode well for Anoop....in the bottom three

Back from the break, Ryan is introducing JHud..Love this girl..Grammy, Oscar, the bitch got it all and is here to show Simon how wrong he was...Starting out strange..MIC problems or having a hard time singing over the track...I hate this track singing..I miss that shitty Ricky Minor right now..Now when they interview I hope Ryan brings up the tragedy otherwise its a wuss out...Sad part is your heart breaks for her every time you see her now...Ryan on stage with her and yet another girl taller than him. Lame ass interview...The show needs some ballz...

Back from break and they are rapping to Anoop.. They ask if he deserves to be there and Simon is the only one who said yes...They have Chris and Lil stand up and OMG there are pointed rockets at the AI audience..WTF Lil that is hot and you must be cold cold cold...Lil is now defending herself and blaming the crew...Lil is in the bottom..That was expected..Lil has lost a lot of weight since being on the show...Matt and Danny..Should be Matt on the block...Matt is in the bottom..Based on the performance last night, Matt should go...One is safe that person is.....Anoop is safe.. I am mesmerized by Lils condition...

Back from break Miley..Smoke on the stage and her big teeth come out and start singing..Well the good thing is that she is singing live I think and has her band and it actually sounds pretty good..I think I would dig her if there was not some crazy marketing machine behind her. She is growing hips too...Hanging out with Taylor too much..Singing her little heart out and you know it because when they go in close you can see the dry wet spit in her mouth...Like at the Grammies I actually think she did a good job..I may have become a Miley fan..well lets not get crazy....

Back from break...36 million voted and Lil is safe and Matt is going home unless saved by the judges..Will he sing for his life...yes he will...ooh started off ruff again and the judges are doing the thing again where they gesture..He is doing a horrible job and should not be saved..Everyone on the side is dancing and the judges are acting dopey....This version is flat at best sharp most of the time and just outright horrible....So here we go do they save him.....It was not better than last night...SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DRAMATIC....Simon said not better than last night and no chance winning....OH God what a bunch of crap..Its like the stimulus check..Gave it to you last year and yanked it back this year....Why are these freaks so happy he was saved..They are going to vote two of you off next week

2009-04-14T16:47:00.015-04:00

The final 7 get to sing songs from movie soundtrack..How do they pick a song?
so many choices....They dominated the small screen but take on the big screen... OMG they have gay'd up poor Tarintino..and he announces that this is American Idol...Last time he was on he was a really good judge...Band on stage tonight, Ricky Minor..They are a minor league band, not that I can do much better... Kara looks like she has just been laid. Paula is wearing some kind of diamond runway down her front and Simon dressed as normal

Alison up first..I don't want to close my eyes...Comes out a little huffy at first and slow..a little too slow...You can feel it starting to build..sounds good, the piece is jerky as it was put together but it was pretty solid..This is a hard song to sing. she has been solid the whole time..9.Paula said a champion talented young lady..Simon said it was BBQ sauce that Paula was referring..You are the girls only hope left in the competition.Said you sung it better than any other woman let alone anyone else.

Anoop...Bryan Adams...Solid choice for the AI crowd since they know. He is changing it up a little but...So far it is his best performance of the competition...Voice sounds fantastic and strong and made it more gospel...Nice job..I have to give it a 9 for the night...They are gonna say it is too simple..Randy said the last few weeks you found your zone..It was in tune and you did a great job...Kara said its pop and you added your soul..It was one of your best performances..Funny thing about Quenton is that he is not a singer but he gives advice as if he is..

Adam Born To Be Wild...comes skipping out..Once again its different but I do not think it was a great song to sing..JV just said awful and MDL said hot..I just don't get him but you wait to see what he is gonna do..I cant rate this fuck...OMG he is just screaming like Axel....The crowd loves him.He is going to be on tour with an old band one day. Paula said the reason you shake it up because you dare to dance in the path of greatness and you are brave ever..Simon said you need to learn how to express yourself..vocally great but like the RHPS..go see my comments from a few weeks ago...Not as popular as the one last week..Regardless he makes you want to see what he is doing...MDL likes the fact that he can change his hair suit and makeup and look and sound different..JV just said awful

Matt...His dressing is too thought out..OH GOD DAMN he is wearing that fucking hat again..The hat purpose is to hide the berry on the head...To Love a Woman by Bryan Adams again...Behind the piano..He is doing a good job but it is an easy song for his voice..Nice choice since the audience has reference..Pitchy in the high parts but overall a good job..Ooops high spot off sent him reeling a bit and forgot the words...8...not bad...Not blow me away...Anoop best of the night so far..Randy said it was interesting until it went off pitch..You are doing so much in a simple song..Kara said you are going back and forth and you changed parts that took away...

Danny Gokey..Bought a guitar...Endless Love..Nice song choice of songs for his voice..Harp player...People are going to be thinking he is singing to his dead wife..Hit a real sour spot after the first verse...but it is building nicely and he is really bringing it home at the end and singing his heart out...9...solid performance and people are gonna love it..Paula said the key should have been lowered and timber in your voice and you magic and forgetting about the end and you grab me and make me slay something..Simon said cannot fault the way you sang it but I am disappointed that it was traditional and bored with it but having said that the song means a lot to you and I congratulate you for that..

Chris Allen...Falling Slowly....Starting off slow and singing alone on the MIC..I know this song and it is a great choice for him..Except for the one week he has picked the right songs and has performed each perfectly and he is really singing his heart out tonight...Him and Anoop are the best so far...9...Randy said for him it did not catch on and pitchy..Kara said it was difficult and your best moment..I agree...

Lil Rounds..I have supported her and I think she has potential but if she does not bring it tonight she is going to be out...The Rose..Once again a big song but will she deliver..She looks hot...She is making it gospel and it is good and I still think she has one of the biggest voices in the competition but she is not bringing it again..8..MH said she destroyed it..I would not say that but not too great...Paula said something about a road..Simon said I have no idea what you said.. song too soft too middle of the road, nice moments and you are not the artist that we thought you were...Lil got sassy and she is bout to get into a fight...

MDL was watching tonight's AI with me..She thinks that Adam will win the show.Paula is retarded and will not shut up, and Simon is annoyed with Paula and her pearls of wisdom..She thinks that she is getting her quotes from Bartlett's a few minutes before she goes on stage..Take another pain killer Paula. She also enjoyed texting MH while I was blogging

AI the Vote Off Show

2009-04-08T21:21:00.002-04:00

Frankie Avalon to open the show singing Venus from the year 1959..Then we get treated to the group doing Cant get you out of my head..Scott is having a hard time with the dance step and looks freakish. The group sounds flat....How horrible...If this is any indication of how the tour is I think there may be an issue

Back from commercial break into a commercial. Matt should think about having something gnaw that mole off his forehead. Its like that commercial with the stain on the shirt..It talks to you,

Ryan after banter with Adam is ready to start the vote off..Adam, Chris, Anoop..Adam is safe...Chris safe and Anoop is down in the bottom three.

Flo Rida in the House,Ya know its funny the sell the show like its a family show and then you have The Flo making it snow, singing about girls on the pole...Hmmm Maybe those are our family values.

Back to the next group Danny up and Danny is safe....Matt is up and Matt is safe...Scott is up and Scott is in the final three, and he walked the wrong way..Allison is up and so is Lil and Alison is safe and the Lil Round is in the bottom three..

The PickMeister is up next and is being billed as a country sensation...Hmmmm..I think she is secretly married to Ryan. Horrible song and sung horrible and they should not save her..How is everyone friends with Taylor Swift..Who is Taylor Swift..I think she has a pack with the devil.

Bottom three to the center of the stage..Lil is safe once again and let this be a lesson to her and getting her act together...

Scott and Anoop..Let it be Scott..Oh Thank God..Now this is gonna mess my world up if they save him. Happy hands Scotto and go to your safety spot...Judges are putting on a show like they are discussing his fate..Guys he is blind, he cannot see you acting all false.There is that note again, the one that breaks the bonds of earth and shatters the heavens..

Vote is tied 2-2 and Scott is giving the I am having fun blah blah..Here we go..Dont do it Simon..Good send him home...Do the recap of his journey and send him packing

Paula said you are an inspiration and talent and we all watch AI so we can witness artists like you classy man..Wait, he is not an artist, he is a loser

AI-8 Left-Songs From The Day They Was Born

2009-04-07T20:03:00.011-04:00

The show starts off and they are showing pictures of the judges when they were younger..Jokes all around.

Danny Gokey..1980...Stand By Me...Doing an R&B version of the song..The slow part sounds good, cheesy in the middle but still on tune...Could be forgotten but the end he brings it home..Soulful..8.5... Best so far...Randy said he did not love the arrangement..but you made me love it because of your voice..Kara said you took it to many levels and did it well..Paula said wow you set the bar and people have to run to catch you and the liberties were creative and chords were brilliant..Simon...said the start was good, the middle was lazy, and the end was great..At the start Simon was telling Paula that he hates when she speaks..Heheheh.That is what we all love

Chris Allen...1985..His parents are bad mouthing taxi drivers...All She Wants To Do Is Dance...Song seems like it picks up right in the middle...Lame choice for a song..He is singing it well but it is just a lame choice..Hard to rate..He is standing in the middle of the crowd last week like Matt they are all around him its lame so I give him an 8..Kara said I am a huge fan and I am happy you picked a fast song but it felt like jazz funk homework and it lost itself..Very true...Paula said its wonderful is that the heart feels genuine and took a song and made it your own and we like you..Simon said likable yes, but boring, indulgent, forgettable..people yelling that he was hot and Simon said yes so am I...said it was a stupid song choice..Randy said the same thing Simon said but added that its not the song but you as the singer..Simon and Ryan fighting at the end but its all good...

Lil Rounds...1984..Whats Love Got To Do..Big song she has to bring it...She is over enunciating the song at the start which makes it sound flat..Coming to the first stanza she is still trying say all the words and does not really start sounding good until the end..She gets points for taking on a big song but they are going to say its yelling..Does not connect that well.. 7.5....Paula said you look hot which she does and Paula said it was important for you to kill this week and you are a brilliant singer but you are not taking the lead...and she kept talking..Simon said I think what Paula is looking to say that we are not looking for a third rate Tina and is was a copy that failed and you are making wrong choices..Randy said we love you and you have mad talent but he agrees with Simon and its not clicking.Kara said you are not making that jump from singers to star..Lower register is bad...This could be bad for her

OMG WTF the return of the Six Flags man. I hate that fucker and I think he finally did himself in by talking...We now know it is not an old man and its just lame. I suggest to you readers that this may be the last we see of my arch nemesis...

Anoop Dawg...Shout out to UNC..Saying sorry for his attitude towards Kara..Anoop has jumped the shark..1986...Anoop in his Bollywood outfit...after watching House last night I feel like he may shoot himself....True Colors..Nice song choice...One of the nicest songs of the 80's...Doing a very nice job with the song..Its a easy song..getting fast in the middle, thought for a second that could be bad...good song choice nice job...same as Danny..8.5...Randy said good for UNC and you pulled it back and party guy and you can sing and very nice vocal..Kara said you controlled the song and your not being something you are not..Paula said flawless phrasing and satin and rainbows..Simon said you are a singing yo yo your up and down, was not fantastic but good.. And don't say you are sorry....

Oh God up next is Scott....Hmmmmmmm
1985 Don't understand the what the intro is about..Standing with a guitar and rocking out with some open E strumming..That is how I like my rockers guitar heroish..WOW he hit that high note and my dog fell off the couch...Horrible..Just don't like it want him to be gone..6.5...Kara said bad choice good moments and off too..Parts I like and part I did not... Paula said you stepped away from the piano and guitar and he said he is a punk and you have a nice sense of humor..Simon said go back to the piano.Song was horrible and Scott said it was not that bad and it was strange watching the bad guitar over a horrible song..Randy said dude it was ok and it did not show you as a star...Randy wants him to leap off the stage..Be careful he cant see and he might walk off by accident...

Allison 1992...I cant make you love me..Good song choice for her..Pitchy at start but smoothing out..This is the performance of the night....Almost as good as the original...9...Paula said one note and its you and its a gift with no price and I love tenderness and gut wrenches and heart and you gave us your own...Simon said it was very good...Sort you out and make you more likable and lighten up...Randy said you remind me of Kelly Clarkson and you are like her and you talk too much...best of the night...Kara you made this young and lets go make a record.....She is like Pink there is going to be a big market for her..

Matt...1985...Part Time Lovers..Oh God return of the hat..I feel like its Top Chef...If you do Stevie bring Stevie..Bring the Wonder..Did not bring it in most of the song...Towards the middle it sounds a little better..Oh God now he is dancing like Jacko and he is having pitch problems and at the end his run ends in a scream..He brought Scott..7.5...Vocally the best of the night.. Kara said incredible, Paula Standing O, and Simon said better than last week..Do not see that

Adam...1982...Adam was interested in everything..No sports, dress up..Penis? Hmmm. Sitting again and his hair down...Like something out of a play..I do not know the song but is sound familiar...Once again I do not know how to rate it...He leaves you blank at the end and I guess that is good because you don't forget it..Simon said we are out of time and Simon gave him a standing O.. Its different.

The little bitch Ciela or however you spell it pulled a bitch move and ratted out Talia..Well the girls from NJ got the burn girl's back and called out Ms Eva Braun..There was a ghetto fight but my NJ girls were right..NJ ladies you rock my world...Back to the show, Howard Stern's wife is the guest model. She is very sweet.Not like these bitches and skeezers, except for my Jersey girls..They rock my world..

Girls now have to pose their face in Tyra's pic and convey an emotion...Fo looked like she was sleeping, most the girls could not understand what to do...Natalie did it good and got the first bing, and London were the only girls to do good...And Nat won the competition..and wins 50% more photos at the next shoot..

Back at the house Nat gets to read the mail and they are told they are looking pale..First impressions were they are going to get painted. Thalia and Celia are trying to patch things up.

American Idol-Niner In The Hole

2009-03-31T19:59:00.011-04:00

Idol back on tonight..JV called and said it was most downloaded songs of the Internet...Could be a recipe for disaster....The obligatory banter between the judges and Ryan. Of course we go into a Ryan infomercial....

Anoop..Singing Usher....Just gonna go out there and have fun...This is going to be a hard song for him to pull off...More screaming than singing and he is behind the song. It is just blah and did not really get the crowd going. Bad choice because Usher is a big voice..His is not..7...Randy said you picked up your swagger..Said vocally good but not right song for you..Kara said when you pick Usher you have to for it and you did not..Frat guy dare...Paula said you went back to the playful side.Your vocals sounded good but work on stage act and go for it..Simon said it was a mess. Said it was a poser song...Kumar is fighting for his life now and it is making me very uneasy...

Megan..Bob Marley..This is a good song and a nice choice for her... She makes weird faces and sounds like she sings thru her nose...She can't dance at all and it was flat....6...Freaky....Kara said I like you but you are in trouble...said it was not a good choice for her..Paula said you need to take us by surprise and dig deep for beauty and there will be a stool with a light and no movement and see the ballad and rip the heart out... Simon said so she needs a chair...It was boring and indulgent and you are becoming that..The audience sounds crazy tonight...Randy said it was like watching paint dry..He repeated Kara...I think she can be good but she is lost... She said she will bring it now that she knows but Simon is right she has had a few weeks to bring it...

Ya know I don't understand last years stimulus check...I am doing some one's taxes and they got 600 last year but then it was yanked back this year..Can someone explain..

Danny .....What Hurts the Most..Actually probably a really good song choice for him...The lone violinist....starting out ok and good at the first stanza...I am not sure if its good or if its just yelling and runs...Its good...8.5....Paula said you thrive from the first note to the cadence and I want more and I will hit you...twice..Simon said we were not on the same page...this week he feels that it was his best performance...like two snails competing with a race horse...I don't know if it was great but solid...Randy said you brought it crazy and the show started now...Randy is about swagger...Kara said you moved everyone emotionally...Hmmm don't see it...Kara be in love...

Allison....Don't speak...Hair teased..Lighting is odd..Its distracting...Strange outfit..starts out good but at the stanza sounds a little cheesy but towards the end she really does bring it..She is by far the best rocker chic this idol has seen...8.5....Should have done Pink...Randy said you can sing but you were ahead of the beat but dude what are you wearing..Mad love but can I say it polease....Kara said you are the part, don't dress it and it was forced and distracting..Good job not best. Paula said you have an axe and an edge..singers are twice your age and masterful and going skating bye to the finish..Simon said we cannot ignore the outfit its like the Adams family..it seemed a bit dressy uppy and being a rock star...and you were shouting the song..

Scott.. They should rename him lucky..Doing Billy Joel..His hair looks like the chic from the bride of Frankenstein..Ok so it sounds good but its an easy song to sing...I hope they play this for him the night he leaves....I hope to hear it again tomorrow night...Better than the last few weeks but its not a hard song....7... for the song..Kara said right song and I like the look..He is touchy the freak hair..Paula said that I am proud of you and nothing to do with your challenge but you make me forget..It must be a thrill for a lagotto...Simon said this is your best performance by a country mile..We have the Ryan S hair..Randy said the best of the night..Which Night Randy...

Matty G...The Fray..You Found Me..Good Song...Flat at the start..Ooohhh HoooFa ..He is in the crowd playing the keyboard..getting a little better as it goes on but he is yelling too much and it is hard to make out the song by the way he is doing it..Not bad, not great...7....Paula said Ok but you had an abortion and sitting in a false voice and it sound like Issac and it was a cold play.. Simon said I do not get it, felt put on up tight and you are lost trying to become others..Randy said it was not you and you have more chops..Kara said you have to commit and you don't deserve to go home...

Lil Rounds...Celine Dion.She gotta bring it...Hair looks hot..I don't know this song..Is this her Whitney moment...She has a super strong voice but yelling in some points but I have no reference point...8.5...Not a great song but she did a great job..Randy said I wanted more swagger..again....Kara said I was surprised because its effortless and you are a singer that can let it out..Paula said I do not want to see an adult Lil round and heaven..Simon said it was a safe song and it was a wedding performance..They all agree do Mary J and it shows no personality...Love fest for Randy and Lil is crying for her babies..Do we need more kids in the house

Adam..Play that Funky Music..Sporting his Elvis hair..Well we all know the song..Odd to say the least..the version sucked but he is just yelling and screaming and I do not know what the hell this is...Different odd...Cant score it don't understand it don't know if I like it...Paula said true genius shatters things and liberty and you are in a class with Jagger..Simon said it was very brave and we got rid of the crap...Randy said thought it was going to be corny...and a shout to Ricky Minor...Kara said I cannot wait to see what you will do next....

Last singer of the night...

Chris....Ain't No Sunshine...Fantastic Song...Christina Christenson did this in the first season and it was great....Haunting and first and getting faster..It is different than the original but just a little to make it fresh...Best performance of the night...10..sung perfectly and just fantastic...Wow...Randy said you are in a zone..Kara said that is artistry..Paula said you are pacing yourself strong...Simon said you brought it nice arrangement best performance. Winner for the night...Could be your next Daughtry...

American Idol-Motown

2009-03-25T19:42:00.018-04:00

Tonight our idols are taking on the sounds of Motown and once again the idol judges come walking in next to their egos... Paula is wearing a Cinderella dress...Barry Gordy and Smokey R in the house. They are complimenting last weeks loser. So very nice...Out comes the crew.

Tribute to Detroit and the Motown sound and its place in America... The music the movement and the talent...Gordy telling the idols basically that they are taking a short cut to success..True...

Matt G....Doing a Marvin song..Love Marvin, good song and lets see how it goes.....Playing the piano, and not blind.... starting out good on the piano but when he comes to the runs its pitchy...There are parts that are really good and then some parts that fall short..This song can move you and this one is just not getting it on if I may be so cheeky....8...Not great not bad...Randy said he is happy tonight and that Matt set it off...I do not agree..Randy said his voice was strong..Kara said there are a lot of girls that want to have sex with you and you played the piano and you got up and it was solid..Paula said you are comfortable and sexy and cool...Simon said it was cool and you got up and your voice suits the song...You are a front runner..Don't buy it..JV thinks he is groovy...Manny gave it a 9..JV gives him a BVAL score of 9...

Scott..The blind guy..Paula said he gonna bring it..Can't hurry love...selling himself as single in the promo and its just lame...My mouth is open..Starts out slow and hokie...wait it gets worse..fast..He is singing too slow for the song and he just messed up the lyrics, and now he is screaming now which sounds shitty..I think he may be deaf too...6, maybe a 5....I think I may be deaf now...Paula said you brought singers standing around you and I have no idea what he said..Simon said I cannot take much more..Said it was cheap...Thinks that he is better than that but week after week he picks the wrong song...I agree..Randy said he agrees that he takes no risks and the song sucks...Nothing great...Kara said you brought tempo but you took liberty with the melody but execution sucked... The cut to his blind sister..Here we go Scott beg and tell them what you were trying to do. Making excuses...Now we are back to Paula who gives Simon crayons and going under the table.. Oh God this is getting very uncomfortable with him trying to put three fingers up. I think he gave us the finger, and the peace sign at the same time...

Megan..Once In Life..She had a good voice but she sings it like a freak sometimes..She sings like a pirate...Band sounds good..Its like she falls just short of being Amy Winehouse..He voice sounds strained...She sounds like she cannot hear what is going on behind her...she is off..6... and she looks freaky dancing... Randy said I have mad love and the dress is good..Randy said a train wreck and crazy..Kara said she agrees with Randy and it was off...Paula said you are stunning but she agrees that she started off too low and then too high...Simon said horrible and fire the advice person...Vocals were all over the place and you are in trouble....She does sultry requests for the men to give a call...

Anoop Dog..Doing a Smokey song..Hindu Kiss Ass...Sitting on the side of the stage..Starting off good..OOOOFFFFF, some pitch problems, but then gets better and then goes off again..The song is slow and does not match up but a good job..8...He will be ok I think....Kara said it was a hard song to sing but there were moments that I loved it but others that were off but did a good job...Paula said you are brazen and sweet and tender and doing a good job..Simon said it was a great vocal and you looked asleep and it was a little like a musical..Randy said when you sat down that you were serious..I do not get the actions thing..They are singers, not sitters...Randy repeating...Kumar does American Idol..I'm writing the script...

Mike..Letting everyone know that he was sick all week...Ain't to proud to beg...Cheese Dick...Lame..Its like he is Rocky's retarded brutha Rucky...Its just off...Hey at least he will be a home town celeb..A bus tour might be opened... I really don't know what church would want him..7....maybe a 6..Paula said it was tough..Vegas Lounge....Notes were off..Simon said I have no idea what you said to Paula..Simon said he wanted it to end and he was screaming and shouting...You are not going to win..Mike cant take criticism..come on Mike mouth off..here we go sassy Mike respects it but gave it 100% ..Randy said its a big song and too big for him and you do not have R&B chops...Tried to do too much..Kara said you are not an artist, well in so many words and you need to bring that......So far Chris and Matt are the or should be the winners....

Lil Rounds..Heatwave...I do not like this song..She got one big ass booty.. She thick...Hate the song and the version and she appears to over singing but she is able too..She is singing it too fast but she can belt it...8.5....Always good...Randy said you have mad crazy vocals but it was not the right songs and you were rushing...He is right...Kara said you are the diva and this was your week and you did not nail it and it was not the right song...You were screaming and you do not have to...Paula said something about the outfit but your vocals were fresh and you owned it..Simon said it was a bad song and there was no moment and too fast. You are one of the best singers...

Adam...Oh God Tracks of my Tears...Holy shit he looks like Elvis...I do not like this fuck but I have to say that this is one of the best renditions of this song....I never really liked this song..Im thinking that Robin Thicke should sing this version...9.5....Best performance of the night...Not acting the freak and becoming legit,..Wow...Kara stood up and said the best of the night...Paula said that you are in your own league..I have new found respect for him... Simon said it was the best performance of the night,,You are original and made it sound as good today and you have emerged as a star...Randy said you have the range and could do anything...Hot...I am actually going back right now and watching it again..Manny gave it a 10...Watching back it is a little pitchy in 2 spots but I stand by that Robin Thicke should do that song or Maxwell....

Danny...Get Ready...I do not like this song that much and we are seeing that he can compete also..His voice is a raspy and rich and is fantastic..He liked to the Smokester..told him he would sing all the words and yet he let the back up singers do the other parts..9.5 as well..Nice job..Paula said something really good...Simon it was clumsy..Randy said you remind me not your best but love energy....Kara said good not great..Do not agree...

Allison...Papa Was A Rolling Stone...Paula is already standing up...Perfect song for her voice...Rich and on spot..I cannot this girl is 16...Thats an old soul....I think we have our 10..Best performance of the night...Randy said you are 16 but u is dope and hot...Kara said OMG and you were in the bottom three...singing like you are 400...Paula said hehehhe she has crayon on her and she could not say much...Simon is laughing...that is funny..Simon said one of your best performances.......

There are the following: Lil, Adam, Danny, Allison are your tops with Chris and Matt as dark horses..Matt's voice is not as strong as the others

They give us a look at life after being voted off.. I realize that Jorge sounds like our friend SB..Just a tad snarky..Damn that Jazmin can cry..I just want to hold her and let her know that things will be OK..Back from the shoot they question Mike about being away from the family and I am getting so sick of our AIs being strapped with cubs..I hate it....

Now we have to sit thru Skellator sucking the life out of Carrie Underwood...Wow Travis is burning a hole in her with his stare...I think that the the country music industry are vampire and Carrie is their Suki...They are going to drink her blood and feed off her...Randy T's fangs just popped and he is feeding off her...

Back to the losers..Simon said they would save one..Mike is safe and Alexis is going home....But wait what are the judges saying..It could be her but she has to sing for her supper...Oh god they are doing the fake huddle as if they care..She is heading home...What a great dynamic she is in panic mode and her voice is cracking. Horrible..Don't waste the save boys...They said no and Paula is telling her her life will be changed forever..

She said things happen for a reason but I do not know if I agree with that..Look at Natasha Richardson

The ladies met with Ms J and learned how to walk a little. Small cat fights ensued after they played truth and dare and then it was off the reward challenge..Walking down the cat walk holding bags...Blah Blah blah...The one chic one..Thalia has to stop crying and thinking she is being beat up all the time...

Cut to Mr J on the NYC sightseeing bus. The photo shoot is on the bus and all around the city...

Fo and Aminat..Wall Street..They seemed to a really good job..They were having a fun time..J seemed happy.

Kortinie and Nijah in Soho..Nijah struggling at the start. Kortinae did a nice job and they seemed to get it together at the end.

Sandra and Celia...Nanies..Seemed to be doing a good job. Sandra has calmed down since the first week and is not a snotty little African..

Allison and London...From the get go Alison is saying she cannot do it.. What a loser..I hope her and her big eyes fall over.They are being snotty..Mr J loved London but was not really impressed with Ally..She looks like someone out of a desperately seeking Susan movie..

Thalia and Natalie..They hate each other...and Teyona...T was eating a pretzel like a crack ho and Mr J said to get rid of it and she spit it off the side of the bus....Mr J was feeling most but not Natalie...

They wrap the shoot and get ready to meet with the judges...It comes to the segment of the show where the girls talk about how great they did or how bad they did...Alison is a pill but she is real person

The girls walk in and most look good. I hate Paulina P..Dumb fuck..

Being called up as the group..

Nijah and Kortinae..The best shot was at best bad...Nijah getting the worst of it. Its a shame because Nijah is pretty in person but her photo was bad

Fo and Aminat..Tyra says they look good today. Aminat looks better..she looks like a ebony goth hippie.... Picture was fantastic..

Celia and Sandra..Ms J called out Sandra for having black ashy knees. Throw some Lubriderm on those things..J offered spit.. Picture was ok. I did not like it but the critics do.

Thalia, Nat, and Teyona...Shot looks fun..Natalie took the hardest hit.

London and Alli..The group felt the shoot failed. London got the most praise...Lets see who goes home.

The judges deliberated and have made their choices.. Who is safe from best to worse..

Here we go.....
Sandra the best
Aminat
Thalia
Fo
Good so far.
Celia do not get her
Kortinae
London
Teyona
Natalie

Last two Nijah and Ally..They should send home Ally...Damn Ally won and I am not happy...They are starting to send home my home girls...

American Idol St Patty Day 2009-11 To Go

2009-03-17T18:58:00.010-04:00

Dramatic entrance again...Ryan at his most affected. Oh No the set turned green and talk of pints fell from Ryan's mouth..Country week is on for tonight. I hate country week..Ryan kids Simon about his love for the genre and then we get the intro to the quasi stars...

First up after the Randy Travis piece....Travis looks like Skelator

Mike Sarver.... The guy playing the harmonica seems more into this.This is always a hard one to judge because it all sounds the same and everyone sings country...Just don't know...7...Randy said it was a cool song but not sure about it showing range? Kara said we got to see your personality..No big notes..He made a country request to his fans....Paula said you had fun and we had fun and if you had the harmonica player had fun and their was charm and fun and fun is fun and the fun is fun...Simon said he could not understand a single word and Mike got sassy and said country folk did..Said it was clumsy and he don't get it and Mike got sassy again and Simon said he would give it 1.2...Hahahah...

Allison...Singing some country song...Don't like the song but her voice is very strong and she is starting to show that she might be able to sing any genre...9..for her voice..In tune and good... Makes it look simple. Kara said you can sing really well and you make it your own...Every week you are getting better...Paula said rock solid and no one can take away the power of your voice..Paula said you should experiement...amazin..Simon said it was good but you were struggling to remember the words..She said no..Simon said precocious..Randy said it was dope..

Chris....No guitar...In tune, the low and the high...He is actually doing a pretty good job..Quirky...slow song but did a nice job..Have to say nice. He is starting to sound like a contender.9....Paula said I'm surprised..Honest pure and vulnerable...She said some pitchy but I did not see it...Simon said it was terrific....Great choice of song, took it back and in control and did not go over the top..First time were I think you may have a shot of doing good..Randy said tender moments..Kara said ti did not even sound country...

Lil rounds....Have no idea what song this is...Sounds good..Horrible song...Great job with it..9...Randy said it ambitious but did not feel comfortable...Kara said that is part of being an artist and you are a great singer and faulting her for her but they picked the country..Paula said you look good..said something..Simon said Little it came over as a girl that has to sing at a wedding and it felt forced...I dont understand this because they picked this crap genre...Lil getting sassy...I liked it as much as I could

Adam...Freaked out Skellator...Very NinchNails....was good at the start but in the middle when he went high it was odd...Skellator is right....what is this odd, good, strange..I don't know...Its making me laugh...Cannot score this...Kara said Adam does country music...Strange said she does not know what to make of it...Paula said you stand out and are true and it sounded like Led Zepp..don't see that..Simon said what the hell was that and that it was rubbish...Randy said imagine nine inch nails doing country..Hmmm read my comments above...

Scott..Blind guy...Guy should not even be here...wow this changes me so much...I thought everyone could sing country..Wrong..Horrible song lower register pitchy and flat and the whole thing sounded like a theme song from the greatest american hero or a bad 80's movie..I expect to see him on a bike with a mannequin..6.... Paula said it was impressive lovely and you work harder than most..The piano is a crutch... Simon said Paula's comments were stupid...and they battled..Simon said your song choice is bad and it is going over my head...Randy said its not the song but no crazy vocals..You are good and safe...Kara said up your game...I will say this after this performace I wish I were deaf... I tried to scratch my eyes out but my hand still hurts

Alexis Grace... Jolene..great dolly song..Coming down the staircase...In the song at the fourth Jolene Dolly goes stronger...She sounds behind in the song and it does not seems strong..Randy must have been on crack to think that did not need to change..7..She back off on the strong parts..Randy said you did not hit it too well..Did not work..Kara said you lost your edge..flat..Paula said down and dirty vocals and you took something...Simon said it was ok sound alike...She asked what does sound alike..We will forget about it...Travis looks possesed..

Danny...He is such a kiss ass... Do not know the song but he has a very distinctive voice and what the fuck is this song..He is singing about a car accident...and Jesus driving and I am not sure they had cars back then..They had carts...He is good but the song sux.. 9... Kara said when you hit your stride it is great..First part not great...Paula said something about love and respect and ...Simon said he agrees with Paula but he does not understand what he is wearing..Randy said you blazed some parts and not the verses...

Anoop up now..Slow and soft and an easy song to sing but he is doing a nice job...At least people know it..at the end he kicked it up..9..Good job people know the song..Paula said you are back...Proud of him tender and sweet..Simon said you went from 0 to hero and you have performed well..Randy said this is the reason why we want you...Kara said it was a classic song and it was the biggest surprise of the night... I smell a movie..Anoop and Kumar do American Idol...

Megan....I like that its a blue grass country..OMG we got mellons hanging by a thread..She is on display....Its unique..sultry and sexy and they are going to say it makes her look old...I thinks its fun that she can sing that.. Towards the end it sounds shakey....8...Nice and fun..My lord the boulder holders... She was sick and that is why her voice sounded like that...Randy said he was impressed country soulful it worked..Kara said perfect song perfect look and you have the flu...Wow that make the song a 9 kinda of..Paula said something..Simon said you are great and look good..she is a whack job but fun....

There was a strange wierd glitch in the show and it cut to black and then an asian voice came out and then we lost the sound to idol....

Matt....Just a lot of mumbling but he should be ok because the blind guy should be going home or Alexis Grace...I dont know bout this guy..8 maybe a 7..voice is not strong but it seems like he has a pro teacher telling how to fake it..Kara loved it and he is going to cry...Paula tried to say something but forgot the words and something..Simon you have not had enough credit..You out sang them..Like Mike Booooble..that little fuck...Randy said you got it going on...

ANTM: Only 12 Left

2009-03-11T20:03:00.004-04:00

I still dont know how Alison won last week. Anamati tells Sandra that the whole house wishes that they got rid of Sandra..She was sooo right to do that..Some general posturing goes on and then of course the Tyra mail comes..A stretch madress limo. The girls are stoked about it and high fiving...The Jays are getting a message from Tyra who is dressed like the last guy from American Idol last night who was dressing like JT who was dressing like MJ..She says whip them into shape..The obligatory MTV scream comes from the ladies.. The Jays anounce make over madness. These are the best episodes...Some girl always freaks out and ruins her chances...

Jessica chopped short with red highlightes..Looked good.

Sandra short and white...She looks soo good...

Alison..How she is on this show baffles me...They made her blonde with extensions.. I guess it looks better but I just dont het her at all.

American Idol Final 13

2009-03-10T19:32:00.017-04:00

With last Thursday's baker dozen surprise, Anoop Dawg was left in the house. Down to the final 13 tonight. Tonight the songs of Mike Jackson, the Jacko, the Jackaloop..Wouldn't it be strange if MJ showed up to announce his tour..That would be huge for AI..Most of the contestants are young this year so he should feel at ease.

My pick at this point in the competition to win is the lady above..Lil Rounds..Chic has got some pipes, and she sings good too.

A new intro with the judges walking out and Ryan ascending from heaven.. Ryan kidding Simon about loving that way too much...Which celebrity will we see in the show tonight..Who has an upcoming show. Stage is lit up in AI blue. Advise for the singers..Randy gotta bring it, Kara said its gonna be harder and its her job to and then she stopped..Paula looking like she collided with a bird..Perhaps she was on flight 1594 with Sully..Her advise was that it was a big stage..Simon said don't forget the words and prove that you are not swallowed up by the stage...I hate that the blind guy has to be led out like a puppet..Its freaky...Hottest chicks by far Jasmin, then Lil and then Adam...Simon announced that two go home tomorrow and not one.

Lil Rounds up first..singing Way You Make Me Feel...coming down the stair case..Don't dig the outfit..Makes the booty look real big..Singing it well but its just a blah song...she does have a really big voice...9....Let her be the mark to beat..Randy said this is the way to kick it off. Send you made the song new again..Don't agree with that...Kara said what you just did everyone else needs to be scared...Paula said wearing a freaky makeup scheme..Paula liked the outfit and way to start it out and Simon said what.Simon said it was good and said it was a lazy song choice and I hate what you are wearing...

Scott up next.. Boy they cut to him doing something in his dressing room..I don't know what he was doing. Keep the Faith? Gets to play the piano..Started off pitchy but got better, but when he came to the bridge it was off again..Horrible choice of song because no one really knows it or if they do he is not singing it right..His high register is ICK...7...Song choice bad...Kara said did you just learn that..Most did not know the song but it has a message, not dynamic..Paula said its magical seeing you instrument at your fingertips..hhhmmmmm....Simon said he hated the song and no one knows it. Bad song choice...Randy said the song was OK but it was too safe......

Danny...PYT...Hope he does a different version...Neo Soul version..A little off at the start...Then he breaks into the old version...He has a very rich voice and that is what saves him on this because the performance is odd...He does have a strong voice...9..guy to beat right now...Did get the place rocking. Paula said you are on your way to the finals..Simon said the vocals are brilliant, a white guy with soul but the dancing bad...Randy said he has range and you got it and he loved it all because the dancing was not pro and that is what you felt..Kara said it was dancing singing and joy...

Mike..Oil Rigger...Heading home to the job and family...You Are Not Alone...Making it a country version..Nice tone..Sings through his nose a lot but doing a pretty good job....Does not get lost in the song...Not a bad job...I would say just as good as Danny...8.5...Surprised me this week...Simon said you are not the best singer..but you make up for it...Randy said Dawg listen you are one of the best..Kara said it shows you can sing...Did a good job and you bring your game...Paula said you are liked, you are something and sounded out a word and color or something like that....Oh God a shameless plug for her daddy...

Jasmine up next...She better bring it..She has been nervous the last few weeks and it has shown..She is hot and so are her sistas...Ill be there..Good Choice...Starting off really good...perfect tone and showing that she can do this..I was getting scared by her last two performances...Did not change it from Mariah version...9....Nice job..here and Lil's..Randy dropped the fact that he recorded that but said you did a really good job...Kara said she was surprised too but take it a half key down and good stage presence..Paula said you are lovely and poised..Not sure what she was watching..Simon said it was a good attempt but robotic..I do not agree with them...

Chris...Oh God not another I sit around with my whole family and sing...Remember the Time...Trying to act like John Mayer with his guitar. Does not make sense of him having the guitar since you cannot hear him play..maybe at the end..Not doing a bad job either...Yelling at the end but there is a market for him somewhere...8...Kara said the girls love you..I am happy to see you with the guitar..few notes off but good performance...Paula said something and Simon's hands were doing something under the table and I lost her...Simon said the song did not suit the guitar the vocals were good but hide the wife..Randy said he loved the wife Jason Mrazy...

Allison....Strange little thing doing song in front of no one...First Braces Grill...Give it to Me?? Rich voice and singing really really well but what song is this..You are starting to see that MJ had a few clunkers...Bad choice of song good voice..8.5..Nice job..Maybe a 9....Paula said something and stay true.. Simon said good performance good confidence...Randy said you got it...Kara said keep being the rocker girl..

Anoop Dawg....He is a pretty calm and cool guy...Beat It...Gonna be hard...Its gonna sound like a bar version...he wont be able to sing it like Mike and there is only one version..He sounds good but the song is too big for him..good tone but its hard to describe..7... Paula said she was not prepared..not a good choice of song cause only one can do it...Simon said it was horrible...light weight and stupid...failed MJ..Randy said it was the wrong choice...Kara said well the same thing..Little disconnected...

Jorge...Never Can Say Goodbye..good song...Off right from the start but then came back in line but when off again during the Never Can Say Goodbye part but brought it home..Have to say did not do that bad...7.5...Randy said pitchy just not the right song..Kara said wrong song..Paula said you were not yourself..Simon said it was corny and he could not wait for it to end.. I did not think it all that bad

Meagan...Something evil about that sleeve of Tatts...Like her with the brown hair..Oh god these idols are strapped with kids...Rocking Robin...Bad choice...Well maybe not her..I am confused by this..I think she sang it really well but I think it was an odd choice...Crazy shit at the end...7.5...Kara said its Meagan...Paula said she loves her and her voice and you picked the right song but did not hear it to the end..Simon said we like you but what a stupid song choice said it was clumsy...Randy said the song choice and someone screamed and then it got lost..Simon kicked it to Gordon Ramsey..Our first celebrity to see what he thought..no mic but it was funny

Adam...The Girl Boy....We get to see his black nails and goth look..Black and White...Gonna unify the races...This guy freaks me but he is a performer...The girl boy you hate to love or love to hate..He will kill on Axel Rose night...he made it his own..Or Journey night..8.5..not for me but not bad....Paula said take it all in...I am into you and fashion and music and package and love and something...Simon said it was in a different league...said it was an original version...Randy said you are right now,,Kara said she hopes MJ is watching,, I don't get it but hey...

GF MDL called and said she thinks Paula had a mini stroke..She thinks she stroked out after that performance and her mouth is now drooping..

Matt..I hate him wearing that MJ hat all the time..Shocking not on tonight..Piano singing human nature...nice version..not standout at this time..he thinks he is MJ and JT..not bad..trying to be like Maroon 5..8...Randy said you sound like Robin and Justin..Kara said good..Paula said something...Simon said solid...

Up last Alexis....God another kid..This is becoming AI the mothers version...Dirty Diana...Hmmmm Hate the white blond hair on woman..Like an old woman...She has a good voice in a short black dress..It was strange I was having a digital feed issues and it made her look like a robot from a tool video..8.6...Kara said you are back...Paula said watch the over singing...Simon said over the top..Randy said good..

Scott and Anoop should be going home

Wild Card Show American Idol

2009-03-05T20:54:00.002-05:00

Like the format but I came in late..So I cannot blog it...I hope Jasmin gets in....and she does...good choice....I want to watch the show but I cant....Ricky Bobby...Not going thru...Ok,,Meg and Tat...No to Tat...Meg thru good choice and Tat crying yet again..Loser 12 times over.OMG she is gonna pass out...I hope they scanned her for a gun...She is nutz....The network probably said we have to say nice things about her becoming a big star so she does not..One spot left..Jessie ...out... Von..up next..Strutting up and head bobbing and Paula is laying down the verdict..Did not make it...Thank God...Matt and Anoop...Please let it be Anoop the other fuck with fidora on and scarf to keep his voice warm is so poser and he has not reason to be a poser..I hate posers..Posers have this sense of entitlement that is not theirs..the poser made it thru..Well he has fooled them now but he will fail...Wow Simon made it a top 13...Fantastic...Fuck all you readers...Its nutz here..The cats are peeing in the toilet Anoop Dog in the house......

I Have To Throw Them Out

2009-03-03T22:25:00.000-05:00

Well, I think I hit my limit when I got home from work today..Let's recap the week. I was walking the dog and I ended up messing up my finger. I came home tonight, to one cat screaming for food and knocking objects off of the counter, the dog got into the garbage and left it on the kitchen floor with a few gifts from her bowels, and when I opened the bathroom door, the dog got into the trash in there as well. But, when I turned on the lights, I seeeee this... They dont pay rent, I have to clean up after them and feed them constantly and they seem to love everyone else but me....

Now I dont mind that the cat was using the toilet, but what I do mind is that she left the seat down. What am I going to do

American Idol Group #3

2009-03-03T19:58:00.016-05:00

Ryan here to tell you about the next two hours. The final group..

Von Smith..Hate the voice and hate this guys voice..Cannot understand why this kid is in it..They should have had Dave Foley instead... Singing Marvin Gaye. His mouth is too close to the mic..he looks like a bass when he sings..His mouth and face make weird faces..Singing better than a lot of the other people from last week.. At first a little pitchy but not a bad job..8....You have to beat him tonight. Randy said tonight you started it off right. Better than you did in Hollywood..Kara said you know what you are doing tonight...Paula said I love you know when to pull back and go forward..Simon said you remind me of Clay Aiken..You sang better than Hollywood.

Taylor 17 and from Utah....If I Ain't Got You....Alicia..Gotta bring it... Starting off good..Quality this week is much better than the last two weeks..Hitting the middle and he is going flat like she lost the tone...Not good...Almost like she got scared now the rest is just catching up..The back up singers are helping her..Not a very strong voice. 6..Nice try maybe next year...Kara said you have a voice and you hit some issues but I'm trying to figure out who you are and it leaves me cold..Paula said you sang it in Hollywood...You showed nothing new..Simon said I don't get the shopping thing...Not something anyone will remember..It was generic and bland.. And the crowd turned on him and forgot Randy..Randy said boring..OMG towers over Ryan..Then again so could a Leprechan.

Alex...Very funny intro with him..He seems very witty...Guess Why They Call It The Blue..Elton...Ugg started off flat but then he runs away from the mic and then he started making these strange noises into the mic like a grunt..Really do not understand this arrangement..Horrible song for him and he is singing thru his lips....5... Paula said you are a showman and you had fun...Simon said we had fun watching you just not listening to you..He said the growling was stupid and said he is a hamster trying to be a Tiger...It was stupid..Randy said it was crazy in a buck wild sort away.. Moves were so wild .Kara said you do you..You are the fun guy..Everyone more or less agreed with Simon..Alex said he was having fun..

Arrianna up next...Winner Takes It All..ABBA..Dont know about the song...Singing a slow version..I am not sure what note she is going for..She is kind of all over the place..Started out sounding like Rhianna and then in the middle like Ri Ri getting beaten by Chris Beat Her Down Brown and then at the end it sound really good..I am very confused...7....Simon said it was horrible dreadful and you failed and that was the problem..Randy said you are young and you can sing big songs and it was the wrong song and it was not good..Kara said you are a beam of sunshine..and tonight it was dark and depressing..Gloomy..Kara said you had some bright moments but the song was old fashion...

Ju'Not..Business owner..I hope he is Ju Yes and not Ju No..He better have his kid in the crowd..Hey there Delilah..WTF He is black...Oh well..Ok I'm feeling him Boo...I'm not mad at him boo,,I thought this was a bad choice but he is singing it better than the original..So far this is the best guy singer of the night...but its not bad..Made it soulful....9..Man to beat tonight...Junot Is Ju Yes..Nice Job..Randy said you took a plain white tee and pulled it off and it was a smart choice.. Kara said the spin was the smooth...Paula said it paid off..Simon said it was better than I thought it was going to be. You should have stripped it down and you are nervous...Junot started talking about taking shots in the butt..God Ryan is a tiny little fuck...

Kristen and Nathanial..I hate this little fuck...Kristen up first..She is a little troll.. She reminds me of Tanya Harding..Give me one reason..She seems very contrived but her voice is pretty good..I think she is 60....She pretends like she is shy and innocent yet is sultry...Best girl of the night..8..So far.. Kara likes the hair you have great tone but not edgy for you but you can sing...Paula said you have range but this song has not range...Simon said you look like a pagent child but your voice is good..Randy said it is an easy song but you tried to do too much..Ryan said who are you..She is a girl just as tall as you Ryan that makes you a short little fuck..Thats who you are Ryan

Nate..Ill do anything for Love...I hate this fuck cause he is a little snarky drama queen. He is so full of himself..He is Rupert Pupkin...He is singing the wrong note and then it gets fast and with the head band he looks like an Olivia Newton John video and he is singing to the Drama Queens be free be free you drama queens...getting fast again and he is sweating to the oldies..Just an odd song..6...When will he cry..come on cry..cry...The judges are stunned..Simon said he would do anything...Some people will like it but most will not....the ONJ head band read above but they will remember you..You are fun...Randy said odd song..You can sing but hard to imagine what kind of record you would put out....Simon said a keep fit video..Kara said you are not serious...Simon said who are you here with and they went to his GM but this is getting strange..Paula said you are cool in Hollywood...boy George version...Simon is not happy with what is going on..

Felicia....No one..by Alicia...Good song...Oops hit a hard spot on the opening...She has a strong voice...sounding good and then in the middle during the no ones she hit a sour note or two....Its gone off from here and its getting jerky right now and this is not good..Its getting more and more flat...7...Paula said you are hot inside and out and I am glad we brought you back..Simon said you came back to prove a point its a copy cat and I am not too happy with it..Randy said you have a good voice and it was hot....WTF Kara said its a good look but problems with the notes...

Scott..The Blind Guy..Mandolin Rain..Great Song by the Hornsman....He cant hold his notes that well and sings thru his nose....ouch some sharp notes and flat notes and he looks like he is gonna kill somebody..I used to love this song...Until the night the blind man from AI sang it..Gov Patterson hates it too...He just called..7..Not that good and going home..His helper is in the crowd clapping..I thought it was horrible when he turned the wrong way..Randy said it was not perfect but props..Kara said you move mountains...Paula said I am happy and proud and you bless us and you are one of the finest..Simon said you grow on me but it was not great..You are not the best singer and you should make it thru the next round..I do not agree....

Kendal singing some country song.. Shows that anyone can sing country...Her voice is really deep and she is looking to be the next blond chic from AI that won all those awards but alas her notes are not as sharp as they are flat...Has moments but just blah..Pitchy but not too bad..7...Kara said you know who you are but it was flat so you had issues..Paula said you have the best outfit..Simon said you are what you are and you like you country..Half way thru I wanted it to end..Not my cup of tea..Randy said good song, nice outfit but not good vocals..

Jorge Nunez up next...Dont Let the Sun Go Down..Elton Again...Is this the spanish version..I think he can sing but only Latin songs...Mi minutos cuando I met tu....go half spanish now cause its not sounding good in english...Not a bad job but no market for him doing english..Not a cross over...8...took half off for the english..Paula said nothing again other than she is proud and somehting..Simon said you should sing with an accent..You are a good singer...Randy said you are good and Kara said you are born to sing you are a singer..thats your gig..Ill shoot her a gig...OMG he is crying..there is no crying in American Idol for the guys..OMG and the spit in his mouth is getting sticky...

Lil Rounds...Now having heard the little I have from her she is one of my top picks.. I think this girl can sing and she is hungry, well, like most of the country these days but nonetheless I hope she kills it..She has a great voice...and she is sexy... Be without you by Mary...Good song..She looks good..Singing a little too fast and above the song...Dont like the arrangement..I dont like this all that much but it does show how strong her voice is..7 for the song 10 for the pipes..Simon said brilliant...I would not have chosen the song because you sounded better than the original and great prospects..Randy said I gotta agree...Kara said Lil you are a powerhouse...You are a steady boat...Paula said you are first class....I like little rounds

2ND Group American Idol

2009-02-25T19:59:00.005-05:00

AI in the house tonight.. The judges are back for a week of watching and judging and Ryan is back to kiss ass ...Randy said the jitters are gone, Kara said bring it, Paula said I hope u picked the right song and Simon said its too late for advice when asked to give pearl of wisdom to the singers...The crowed booed..I hate the AI crowd. Ryan commented that there was an issue with the lighting and that is the reason why Simon was in a different position.

Here we go...First up is..

Jasmin Murray..As far as I have seen from the first few weeks, she is a natural and should ace this..One of the hottest in this contest...She is smoking..Love song by Sarah B..Contemporary song can she pull it off..Low register pitchy...must be nervous or something because her voice is so much better..Its flat and not that good....Moments in the song that her voice comes in and out...Like she cannot hear the music...6..Maybe a 5....Not really good...Randy said there were some good and bad but pitchy the whole song...Wrong song..Kara said your young but it was all over the place, started too low and you lost it...Paula said I want to disagree but I have to agree..Pitch problems..Simon said I am sad you have the look and attitude but not a great voice..Simon told the crowd I just said the same thing as them and you booed me.. Don't understand the crowd..She is going home. They asked her how she did and she thought she did good and said the happy fun thing but there was nothing good about this...I wanted her in the final..

Matt G-Rod..Talking about pinching himself...Singing Viva la Vida Cold Play... Too much vibrato at first and trying to look like Justin T.. Its either vibrato or nerves and it is not that hard of a song to sing and they said pick good songs they have. At least people know them but they should have told them to sing good..He hit one point in the song where he went up a few octaves and it sounded like Tiny Tim yelling at my cat whose paw was caught in a vice...The song is flat and he is making faces like someone is putting in a catheter.. And the pointing is creepy....Wow really bad....4... Yelling at the end scared the dead....Kara said you blew me away and tonight I am not..he blew it..It was lost..Paula said you were up there. It was risky and your performance was better than something..Simon said it was horrible..sang bad and you looked uncomfortable..Randy said you have mad talent and you have to go for difficult songs...If he does that it will be a long 15 weeks..Simon told Ryan to zip it..In a word..Matt Sux..

Janine up next..The only other hot chic in this show...Nice lips...This Love by Moron 5...This is gonna be a bad song for her. Low register again is off and it started to sound good a bit but once again it is flat and off tune and all over the place. It sounds as if they cannot hear the music.I hear more drumming than anything else. Its like the music is not mixed right. Could this be the work of the Taliban..Could this be terrorism in its worst form...The killing of American Idol... So lets rate this..She is hot so I give her a 10..Singing was not so good but so far the best of the night..6...Sad Sad Night...Paula said great legs...Simon said it terrible..Your not picking the right song..You do have nice legs..Randy said nice legs but the best part is that it was over.. Kara said overdone and wrong...She was honest and she seems realistic about how she did. Paula said she does not deserve a shot..She does glow...

Up the next, Nick or Norman..the confused Man Boy from Hoboken no Joking...Oh God Norman Gentle showed up... He starts off by by saying this is for group 2...He is hanging on the rail..I hope he jumps...Singing J Hud song from Dream Girls...Its a cabaret show and the sad part is he is the best soooo far and his singing is not great but at least he understands the joke...Do not even know how to judge it but it is very very funny...Better pitch than most and crying and all over the floor...10 for fun but he is crap... Simon said I hope I speak for America that I pray you do not go thru...His parent look at Simon..Said it was horrible...Now he is acting up..Randy said it was entertaining..Kara said at least we remember you...You wear the same shirt like Simon every week...Paula said this is America...You are fun....Simon asked Ryan if he liked it and Ryan said in a different way and Simon said I can believe that..the crowd ooohhhh'd like some crazy joke has been told and Ryan was taken aback.. Ryan asked if Paula would vote for him based on his singing..Her response I saw Simon smile...

Alison...16 and either has a grill or braces..Acting all strange..She is a strange person... Once again the low register starts off bad but not as bad as the others...the song is good for her voice..She has a husky voice for 16. Hitting the stanza and wow her voice comes out and although pitchy is some parts but her voice is very strong and the best serius performance of the night...8...Girl to beat now for tonight... Randy said funny show comedy bad songs and now you hit the ball out of the park...Kara said you a good....OMG I just hit my finger...Paula said you can sing the telly book..Simon said you are the best tonight so far. Very impressed.. With Ryan she said she does not remember what happened. I think she is bi polar....

Chris Allan....Doing Mike Jackson low again is a little off, he is doing a little hoppy thing...some good parts but no one is going to remember...better at the end...Best of the guys...Maybe a 7.5 ..Just ok for me... Kara said back half is good but front is bad and it is not the right song..Not great..Paula said she disagrees and said he nailed it but he did not..Mike J did...Simon agreed with Paula..huh you are not the best singer but you are easy to forget..Randy said Simon is partly right....You did it..Nice jump off

Megan Joy Cockery...Hehehe Put Ur Records on by Corinne..good song for her... there are issues with sound..Something does not sound right..This girl can sing and its sounds bad.. Its like all you hear one vocal chord..she is doing a little strange dance like she is trying to shake a terd off her ass. Her voice is good but I am not sure what it really sounded like..I want to say 8 but it may have been better or worse..Im not sure..Paula said it was great and you did it right....Simon said you are a funny little thing..Startred it off good but oversang it but I hope they vote for you but wished the vocals were better..Randy said you have that vibe so he hopes to sing her again nice job..Kara said you are a package and with the right song you could be the best...MDL just txt me and she said she does not feel her... Hmmmm...

Matt....Welder..Tonic....Good song for him..This is the right song for his voice...Best guy singer of the night so far...Simple song and not challenging but give him an 8..Know thyself..Simon said I like you but hated that song, boring etc etc no favors...Randy said he agreed but it was good and cool..Kara said it showed no side it fell flat...Paula said you put everything into it...

Jesse.. Betty Davis Eyes...What a horrible song....Your hair hollow gold...Too fast to start off..She has her grammy's sweater on and it is just blah...She can sing in tune which is good tonight cause many have not. I just don't get it..7..Randy said it was ok but he was not blown away...There is a strange convo going on with Randy..Kara said you look good and there was moments.. This becoming odd..Paula said you were captivating..I think its blah..Simon said you will be forgotten..Just flat line.

Kai......What Becomes of the Broken hearted...Good song..Finally a person that can start the song off right..In tune not pitchy. Not too exciting though...Ya know this mom is funny..she is sick all the time and cant get out of bed except for this...I smell rat. anyway good sound not exciting 8...Kara said I like you. She said pitch issues and song was old fashion..Paula said you like the throw back songs....Simon said he heard many performances like that at weddings nothing distinct a good back up singer..Randy agreed..

So far the singers tonight are hovering around suck....

Miesha...Drops of Jupiter...In tune at the start and she has a strong voice... not all that exciting but they will like it...8...Paula said she is fan song not a good choice but you can sing..Simon said great song and its not you and it left him cold...said your 18 and act 50..It did not do it for Randy and Kara said you are put together and shake it out and she was acting strange at the end to show she was young but it was hokey

Last up is perhaps the creepiest guy on AI..He wears too much make up.. Satisfaction....Rolling Stones...the creepy version. OMY its the Broadway version of the Stones the Scarlet Pimpernel of the rock stage and he is screaming and i am now scared of AI... I don't want anyone to go through tonight..I want to go to my happy place..Which by the way is not walking the dog...That has fast become my sad place... Paula up first No words to express this I am watching an Adam Lambert concert... Simon said this is difficult because parts are bad and brilliant..Randy loved it and here is why..You are current but manic..The bomb..Kara you have good vocals..He will be here for a bit but we will soon forget him

I hope no one goes thru and the place blows up

2009-02-18T20:06:00.002-05:00

Oh God, for every time I look forward to watching the show, I forget that you have to sit thru all the commercials that they do and the crappy up with people singing routines...

Anyway..Casey...who boy what a rack..Not going thru...Steve Fowler..Not going thru...Knew them both would not make it...Alexis..I said she will go thru and the verdict is.....Made it into the top 12.. Please review my comments from last night..I'm right again...OMG they cut to her father who is a crying hippie..A boo hooing Benny Franklin...I hate the hat the hair with the fake Halloween pink color in ...ooh she is such a rebel..Rebel mom with a baby....She needs to get some sun...

Next up Jackie No Tone and Ricky Bobby...If anyone goes it should be Ricky Bobby...Ricky is not thru..Jackie is.....she is not either..I was right about that.. So that means that Anoop is thru and they bring him up and Mike..Anoop should be thru and Mike should be going home...Mike is now being asked to describe what he is going thru and he says he is nervous...Going thru is Mike...Wow America got that wrong....Anoop deserves it more than Mike...America is really kind of dumb...For god sake he is wearing a members only jacket on stage..You know its hot on the stage..he is singing his victory song and it is worse than what he did not last night...HE IS NOT EVEN SINGING....I guess I am an AI Purist

Back from commercial and Ryan is ragging on the dawg...two freaks just walked out Carly and I forget the other guys name..Mike and I do not understand what they are doing..They are singing a song..I just don't understand how they putting out records but now I see why they did not win...This is just really strange...They are bopping around like Beyonce and JZ and they are doing a cover..come on now..

Back from commercial and from almost committing suicide because of the last act..I mean do we really wanna see performances from loser idols...Ann Marie..I think she did well...Bent and now Stevie...All of them have lost..Which leave Danny and Tatiyanna..Oh god I hope that Danny gets thru because I do not think that I can handle another minute of this bitch...If she goes thru there is a major problem with America...Ryan ask Paula which one...they are playing that music that is looming..she says Danny goes thru...and she is right..thank God they got that right...OMG she is freaking out..She cannot stand, her dream is over and I am so happy and lets see what she does..I hope to God they put them thru the metal detector..We could have our first AI CSI...She is outraged that she did not win..I do not agree with Mike getting thru..I was two for three tonight and I love the fact that the T bitch is crying.

The Night Is Here: Season 8 American Idol

2009-02-17T20:05:00.004-05:00

Ryan starts off gabbing with the new girl..She says it has been wonderful..Advice for the singers..Don't be nervous..Paula said this. This is your dream so hit the center stage and make magic happen..And if you don't look to the left and right and whoever is better your going to go home. Ryan said it sums it up and everyone laughed. Simon said only three are going thru.

36 to 12..Only three stay..First up

Jackie Tone...Less Conversation by Elvis...WTF is that outfit...I cannot get past the outfit...Odd song choice..not a bad job but it will be forgotten..6.5...No energy for the first song..Just OK...Randy said way to start it off. Not blown away by the song and eh..New Girl said you can work the stage..Not the best vocals but you worked it..Paula said you had me dancing..I love you and remember you the most..Perfect is boring and you are a performer..Simon said you have a good voice but played the clown..Gimmicky and do not think you did yourself any favors...Simon said he does not like the trousers..Now we are with her parents which is odd and very uncomfortable...She should be going home..

Rickie Bratty....Is telling the audience that making chicken fingers was not for him anymore..O M Fing God...Chickens don't have fingers..They have talons...Some song by Leon Russell...Nice song choice and he sounds really good...Nice choice for his voice..He is puffing too much in the mic..Hit the high notes but did not roll it but overall a very very good job.. 8..he is the guy to beat..He lacks richness in his voice but nice tone...Randy said this is what I'm talking about this is the start right here..But he said Jackie as well..Randy which is the start..Dude that great...Nice tone.. New Girl said you killed it, effortless..Paula said she is proud..You deserve to go far...Simon said it was very very good..I'm not jumping out of my chair like you other three..Nice shy guy that needs to believe in himself..Good vocal not as good as the other three... Simon is right...

Alexis Grace...Never Loved A Man...She is sooooooooooo white..She needs a tan..I can see bruises on her legs.She is translucent... She is doing good..She has beaten Jackie already..Nice tone..Not as great as Aretha and most fall even attempting but she held her own..I give her an 8.5.. She is the girl to beat right now..Randy said love seeing you are dirty..you worked it out and I am loving it..Kara said its a new girl..Paula said your present so much soul and you are small and very large..WTF...You are wonderful... Simon said you are the best so far tonight. You are the one to watch. Cut to NPH staring lovingly at Ted Danson..Looks like Ted has a new BF..Cut to her dad who was a member of CCR based on his haircut....

Brent Keith..They are having a tape problem...He works at home depot...Hit Town...Voice has good tone..He has the look but it is a country song...I don't think he is going for the win, I think that he is going to get his name out there for a contract maybe... Song is just boring but I am not into country that much...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz oops just woke up.. 7...Randy said I like what you did and we can go to a cookout...Kara said I like you but you were safe..You have more in you..Paula said it was safe but I can see you as a country star...She said you can see what happened to Bucky Covington...Bucky sucked....Simon what did happen to Bucky Covington..The crowd moaned..It was not original and you may have blown a massive opportunity...

Steve Wright... You Belong With Me..Taylor Swift....Oh god...Started off really bad.like she was nervous..its flat and horrible..Sounds like a cat fight...This is really bad....5..She is heading home...I want to help her,,By the end she is just yelling.. Randy said Yo wow wow wow..Not hot not feeling it..Kara said you have an identity crisis...Paula said I agree with you..Not the right song..Low was bad...Simon said it was terrible..Song was ok, out of tune and you were nervous...Cut to NPH and Ted. NPH is making faces for the cam. She is so young and I am surprised she is not crying..

Anoop Dog....This guy is very surprising..He has a nice attitude..Angel of Mine Great song odd choice for a guy..here we go... I don't know what to say...I like it I think he is doing a good job but the version is off just a bit..too many pauses.. But he is hitting it..he is tied for the top spot at this time with an 8...Randy said interesting song choice but the song was sharp..Kara said she agreed with Randy..I do not agree with them.. I do not think his rolls were strong but...Kara added hard to sing that song and you did not nail it but you have great potential... Paula said America has connected with you..How do she know..Its like a thermos..Keeps hot hot, Keeps cold cold..How do it know what gonna be in it...Simon said why did you chose it..You must have been about two. Too grown up for you and too serious..Simon well say thanks to America and we will forget you..He reminds me of Kumar..OMG this is going to be good..Interview with his parents..Apu and Nita...Indians are becoming very American and this proves it..

Kasey Carlson.....This girl is vapid...Every little thing she does...Very very hard song to sing...What is that outfit and what is up with the hair and her stupid little dip dance
She cant sing and dance at the same time..This is sooo bad but not because of the singing..Singing is average..The movement is freaky...6..this is bad...Like a dancing monkey doll...The boots even look bad...Dances like Elaine..Randy said not good..Wierd..Wrong for you..Kara said it was wrong...you leave the police was wrong and the dancing was strange and ugghhhh..Paula said guys love you and that is so wrong..she essentially said to her that guys just want to touch you and have you touch them in places where it tickles and that is all you have to offer...She looked so sad...Simon said how did you think it went...Singing was bad and it was the worse song..You blew it..She is gonna cry...OH god the lame ass mom..

Mike Sarver...I don't wanna be...Good song choice..starting off slow...He is not hitting like he should..Sounds like he is talking it more than singing it..The register is low and he is having trouble with that but with the higher is ok..Good job but not blowing anyone out...7.5...Randy said you can sing, but it was pitchy..Kara said you have more in you and you are like able..Not the best..Paula said you did a real good job..Simon said it was tricky..We put you here because we like you but it was not great...But he hopes they give him a shot.. Now with his wife she said sing pretty..He did not..For the record I hate that the families are so involved.Music is about being along...

Erin Brokovich....Natural Woman...Aretha again..You have to bring it...Slow part good...In tune nice pitch... She is doing good..Bridge sounds more country than soul..coming to the middle she is really hitting it...She is the best girl singer tonight by far at this point..She has a strong voice and it was in tune and she did Aretha...9...Cut to Ted Danson..Randy said how do you think you did..He said it was not the right choice...Randy said she fell short...Kara said that she felt it was old fashioned...I think they are wrong...so far...Paula said I think you did better than you have in past..it is a huge song and soul and you gave it your all.... Simon said if I'm being honest you would be the best hotel singer and her voice is not that good for that song..I think they are wrong....I thought it sounded really good...

Steve Fowler...I like this guy..Rock with you..MJ..I don't know...soulful but a little flat and a little behind the song.. Bad choice for his voice..He should be singing Anthony Hamilton...wow I do not know what happened to him... 7.5 because he has a good voice but this was lame....Randy said I don't know what is going on..Never thought you would have chosen that..Kara said something about being connected again..Paula said something about cook and connection and rock and something...Simon said it was pointless and it was terrible... Said you made a mistake and said it was corny...Fowler out the house...

Tatiyanna..The most annoying fuck on AI...Saving all My Love by Whitney..She is crying again..and laughing...Starts off flat and she is behind in the song..Flat...and slow..Middle part is not bad but pitchy in some parts but hits the high parts..screechy at the end...I do not know with this one..I want to say about an 8...Standing O for what..Randy said there were some moments where I was like YO you can sing..Kara you are like a roller coaster and you are reserved and there were moments where do you fit in this industry..are you an artist or a character..Paula said you are the most talked about but it was pitchy and I don't know who you are....Simon said you are a drama queen..Never met anyone except Paula who wants fame....You are desperate to be famous.. A fight ensued...Simon said it was not bad and they all did her lame laugh....

Last to sing is Danny Gokey..Hero by Mariah...I ain't mad at him but ..... Very soulful voice....Piano is way too loud.... Has a lot of control over his voice and he is really doing a nice job with the song... Best make singer of the night..... 9...Raspy male version..Did it well..Best performance of the night..Randy said redeemer..Kara said it was great..Paula said sold out arena.. Simon said it was good..but not fantastic, not buying the hype right now...

Three that should go thru...Danny for the guys, and Erin or Alexis for the girls..Wild cards are Anoop and ricky Braddy or bobby or what ever..

2008 VMA Music Awards

2008-09-09T20:12:00.004-04:00

Ok, this always has been my most favorite show but I have to say this is starting out a little lame. Nerd from Superbad trying to make out with what looks like a crazy Brittany..She is trying to relax because she is starting the VMAs..When she walks out she reads a few words from the teleprompter and then the show starts..LAME...Bunch of freaks come in dancing with light sticks..OMG its Rhianna on top of a monolith. It opens up and she is helped to the stage..The picture looks smeared because of all the lights reflecting off the mirrors which are there to make the place look bigger because it looks like they are doing it in a warehouse..Hard to see if Rhianna looks good because of the picture...She always looks a little hippy in what they dress her in..Sounds a little off but at least she does not lip synch...

Out comes Russell Brand....Who the fuck is this guy..The audience did a collective gasp and said who? His hair is over the top peacock like, five o'clock shadow fla ditting around the stage all dressed in black cause Im so cool with my cockney accent...At least he made mention that he is only famous in the UK.. Lame jokes...Peppered with comments to get applauds his jokes are lame...He is probably about half way thru his stand up and no one has really left... He should have just read the paper.. Its topical, just not funny...So now he is making fun of the Jo Bros and no is laughing..Wow he is killing..the audience that is...This is soooo sad..25 years and they put this fuck on.

First presenter...Jamie Fox came in and said to the audience wake up...He is right..the other fuck put them all to sleep...Jamie came to do best female video..Brittany, Katy Perry..Rhianna, Mariah, and Jordan Sparxx....Winner is...Brittany...Some strange guy sitting next to her..Thanks God her fans and family....

Back to lame ass who recaps everything that has happened every time he comes back on stage...Demi Moore...She was around 25 years before the VMAs started...Maybe you know my husband...Best Male Video....Chris Brown...Flo Rida...TI....Usher...Lil Wayne....Winner is...Chris Brown with you. He said he thought Weezy was gonna get it..Thanked God family fans and friends...

Lame ass again recapping the show and telling you what is coming out in the near future...Taylor Swift is there to introduce the Jo Bros..They are sitting on a New York set..they are singing a song about being speechless..I am too..I have no idea what this is..oops now they are rocking out and the fans are running in that MTV said could come watch them...Wow they are rocking out like only a bubble gum pop group can do..ooops they have Katy Perry singing Madonna...

Lame ass dude is recapping again...Introducing Phelps who is coming in with headsets on..He takes them off and his ears pop out..He looks like a chimp reading cards..To introduce Tpain and Lil Wayne and Leonna Lewis...WOW they are reaching into the yearly card of trix and bringing out the orchestra..Out creeps out lil Wayne..So sad when a thug turns to out to be a marketing schill for MTV...With his faded tatts..I bet you if you look close there are some corporate sponsors on his body tatted on.. I think there is more people in LL's entourage than in the audience....

Lame Ass russell recapping the incredible show that has been seen and what is coming back...Ciarra and Lindsey...Ciarra's hair looks like crap...They managed to ugly up a very pretty girlll...this is the reason why I should be directing the show..The dance off winners are going to holler and shout because they won the pre show dance off which no one saw..If they were that good they should have been on stage performing the dance steps...

RNC-Have to Blog It.Thinks its going to be fun

2008-09-04T23:06:00.006-04:00

I used to like McCain before he sold out to his party and let Karl Rove tear him down and call him crazy back in 2000 so they could elect Bush. Its so sad that the party is now praising him for being a POW when back in 2000 they said he was unfit to be Prez because he was crazy ass nutz from all the torture. They cited his temper as being unstable and not very Presidential...And all we have been seeing how 8 years later, it is now a badge of courage..What has made him a leader..Way too funny..Oh yeah, then there was the Keating 5.

So he walks out onto the stage and from the get go, an Iraq Marine in the rafters holds up a sign saying you can't win an occupation..He then turns around the sign a minute later and it says that Mccain votes against vets...The crowd starts chanting USA to drowned out the protest..I have a feeling this could be a sign of what is to come..Not against Mccain so much, rather Bush...On cue Mccain says he is thankful for Bush..Once again he is stopped by the guy...

He praised his wife and the other candidates. He thanks his mom of 96 and they should not have shown her because she actually looks younger than him... She looks real good for 96...What a cougar... He then reaches out to me, an independent...He then sends a shoutout to Obama and the place screams. Did he just say that the constitution says that blacks have rights but we are going to beat you..What a rebel... Then he agrees that the country has failed and we need to start it. Shouts out again from the crowd because another protester was shouting..I think it may have Janet Reno who then got dragged out...waving the peace sign... after they take her out they start shouting again..Another protester I guess, the camera does not pan...As they cut away there are a lot of people wearing cowboy hats...Shout out to his VP and repeats the stump for everyone. Mother of 5 blah blah blah and we cut to the prego girl holding hands with the hockey player...says watch out Washington...Palin is coming..

Mccain is a wild man..He said..He works for us..Remember the S&L..Did not fight corruption then. But he will now...What a great man.Now he is going to tell us who he fought...I think I may end this now..I think I'd rather vote for a guy that has no experience rather than a guy who knows how the system work...I hate the stump part of the speech.

Pumpkin Ice Cream Story Is Here..Aisle 12

2008-05-22T13:43:00.012-04:00

I was listening to American Top 40 not too long ago, the one with Casey and not Ryan and I heard the following long distance dedication that made me chuckle and cry.

Casey Kasem spoke: And now for our long distance dedication. It is from a man to his new bride about the cost of living, pumpkin ice cream and an incident that we can all enjoy and learn from if we are newly married, like ice cream, love pumpkins, or just hate the cost of living... He writes

Dear Casey, I am recently happily married. However before I was married I lived a very sheltered life with my mommy and daddy in their home and under their lock and key. I was living in the womb for the first quarter century of my life..As far as I knew, the laundry once placed in the hamper was magically cleaned by the next morning, and food seemed to replenish and multiply by itself in the fridge or pantry. Mommy did all the shopping and cleaning, and daddy did all the work around the house. This allowed me free time to learn about sports, watch sports on TV, and hone my sport talking skills until they were mad good.

Sadly however, that all ended after I got married. Since my wife worked like I do, I found myself coming home to empty food banks and dirty laundry. Try as I might to blink like Jeannie, the food never appeared like it did at my parents house, and the laundry never cleaned itself..I was hitting a low point in my life..or at least I thought..That brings me to the incident..

It was perhaps the coldest night of the winter season. The wind chill brought the temps down to a remarkable -20 degrees. I warmed the car up and my wife and I drove off to the grocery store to stock the house. Shopping was going on as it normally did until we hit the taxable merchandise section of the store..My wife began picking up strange products that I have never purchased in my life..Things like hair products, lotion, deodorant, makeup, PRODUCTS that men do not use, hair spray etc... As she tossed each item into the cart I immediately picked each item up, held it to the light and began to add up this insane wallet killing spree.. I added up each item in my head and began to realize we were hitting my ceiling trigger of spending..I inquired if it was items that we really needed. With each question I asked I got the affirmative response that I did not want to hear. I began to sweat. The spree continued. It was not stopping, it would never stop..But I knew it was up to me to make it stop..We then turned our carts to the left and headed into the frozen food section. Although chilled from the frightful weather outside, her face lit up and the area grew warm. She turned to me and screamed..Edy's Pumpkin Ice Cream..I LOVE PUMPKIN ICE CREAM..Its only out for a limited time. As fragile as the dew on a leaf in the morning of a heat wave..We have to get this...there is only one left...She extended her frozen little hands and arms into the ice coffin and pulled out the last gallon..she hugged it, kissed it, and then softly placed it in the top part of the cart. The part where you put your kid if you have one, or place your fragile purchases like eggs and grapes. We began to move on but I told her that I had to get something out of my shoe. She smiled and moved to the next aisle..I began to adjust my shoe but when she disappeared, I wiped the frost off the door and read aloud the price of the Pumpkin Ice Cream. $6.79 a gallon..WHAT WHAT....I was in a panic. What to do what to do.. I decided to not say anything and just go with the flow..Or at least that is what I wanted everyone to believe. Now it was time to go...We unpacked the 5 carts we had, and paid our bill. We braved into that dark cold night and made our way home.

Once home we began to unpack the groceries..My wife was excited to have a bowl of her pumpkin ice cream. Little did she know. Once all the groceries were unpacked she asked if I put the ice cream away..I said no I thought you did..She frantically checked the freezer, and all the empty bags on the counter and floor..No pumpkin ice cream. Where is it she asked? I said I do not know...and as the next words slipped from my mouth, I saw my world begin to shrink...Why not check the car, maybe it fell out..But it is cold outside, can you go check? No, its not my expensive ice cream..So she began to put on her cold weather gear..She headed out into the dark and cold...My mind began to race..What have I done...What do I say...When she was packing the bags and not looking at me unload the cart, she did not see me hide the ice cream under the belt over hang where they put the hand baskets...I hated the expensive ice cream so much I did not even care if it melted and spoiled. She came back in..short of breath from the cold from being out there for so long searching for ice cream that would never be found..she was frantic...She asked me what happened to it..I told her I did not know..Lets check the receipt to see if they rang it up..They did not, I knew that. I never let on..I showed her that it was never rung up and blamed the woman who rang us out as an incompetent boob. She was sad but I felt I won a victory for every man out there..My plan had worked.

But Casey, it has begun to bother me over the past year and I need to let her know that I am very very sorry..I am praying that one of your listeners hears my pain, goes out and buys Edy's Pumpkin slow churned ice cream for 6.79 and lay it on my door step, to right the wrong I have perpetrated. Casey, can you play Drown, by the Smashing Pumpkins to let her know that I am drowning in guilt over what I have done.

AI Season Finale

2008-05-20T20:00:00.005-04:00

We open tonight with perhaps the cheesiest opening of the AI show ever. The two David's dressed as fighters with ring announcer Buffet introducing them...I really do not like this show anymore..Ooops, there is Dillon from 90210 with his kids in the crowd, who happen to be the only people not standing up. He will most likely be promoting 90210 2.0 t0night for FOX.
Ryan coming out getting the crowd going and then introducing the judges...rules for the David's..Three songs, Oh God its a whole boxing theme...Why is Llyod Webber even involved in this..I think he made a pack with the devil to be on this show this season..He is everywhere...They are now brought out again sin boxing outfits..Ryan asks the question how does it feel to be on this stage..David C says you tell me to the crowd and they all cheer because David C is talking to each one individually...Gag me with a spoon..David A says its like a dream come true...Ryan asks the judges what will it take to win..Randy says leave everything on the stage, Paula said soak it up which makes no sense..Simon said have a desire to win and you must hate your opponent..David A says this David C is such a great guy and it has become a love fest... First commercial, nothing but fluff....

Round One...Clive's Round..he picks the song

David C..
1) Still have not found what I am looking for.......U2....I really cannot believe he is in this still..He is the Bono wanna be from center earth..Short little troll...It is just cheesy to see a guy stand at the stage acting like he is a superstar and when he is at best a night light...8....Randy said great song choice but someone has to tell Randy that he did not pick the song...He said it was ok but the note at the end was good...Paula said we found what we are looking for..Simon said you looked tense at the start but when he sang it was phenomenal..

2) Contestant Choice-New Song Dream Big (Amy Shackelton) No idea what song that is...Playing the guitar...Little bubble gum pop song that no one knows..Bad choice..easy and no one knows it....Getting lost in the song..voice at best is OK..7....But come on David..do your stances...Horrible....Randy said....the song was just ok but you were singing your face off...then there was a delayed arrogant little comment from David C,,thank you Randy....Paula said song in your heart and a guitar in your hand and said you took a song that no one knows and made us fall in love with it...Simon said using a boxing analogy it was lightweight..this was supposed to be a winning song and it did not feel like a winning moment...he gave it a 6.5...
3) Contestant choice..World I know...Acoustic, I hate when the come in at the same point in the song..sing one all the way through acoustic...Lame.I know this song, I like this song..I am lost in the song..Until the refrain you do not know what song it is and when he gets to the refrain you see this guy has the weakest voice of any two finalist...Lame..7...so at the end he hits a high note and then steps off and begins to cry...Is this American Cry baby?? Randy said the cool thing about you and said very nice job...Paula said you are standing in your truth and I applaud you David C....Simon said you are one of the nicest most sincere contestants that we have had but it was a wrong song choice..there was debate at the end with Simon but nothing to stop talking to someone about....His comments were a dig at David A who is going to sing Imagine again..He spoke of progression..Point well taken

David A...
1) Don't let the song go down on me...Easy song to sing for him...Sitting down and adding his own take on the song somewhat..He does try to pronounce each word which is weird..9..He won this round....Randy said it does not matter what happens and he said it was the best performance of the season...Paula said she has chills...The sun will never go down on you..whose son??..Simon said he thought last week was ok, but tonight was the best he has done so far...Let me finish...Round one goes to Archuletta....David gave his best OMG TY things with his mouth...So what does David do..Cry..In good old Dave A fashion....
2) In this Moment...Not sure who sings this song either...Good song for him...It is an inspirational song about this moment. Sung well and sung much better than David C......You know his dad picked this song for him because of the message..I never heard a singer at this stage sing you cannot take it away from me...8....Randy said not crazy about the song, but you are in the zone..Paula said it was heartfelt and you are on fire..Simon said he loves the egotistical lyric and it was chosen to showcase that... see my comments above.,,round two to David A...He did the same thing...
3) Imagine....Have to say that I agree with David C..its a crutch...He killed with this song a few weeks ago and if compared to the lame performance that Mr C did this night belongs to David A....9... for singing and a 4 for repeating it again.....Randy said you are so good tonight and you are the best singer..Paula said its the culmination..Simon said we have witnessed one of the greatest finals...Simon said you knocked David C out.

American Idol-Down to 3

2008-05-13T20:00:00.012-04:00

Well we are down to three on AI...I am predicting this to be Seyesha's night...Introducing the Judges and Paula looks very very pretty tonight..She is still nutz...tonight the Judges, the singers and the producers have each picked a song to be sung. David Cook coming out with his fake wave and head bob...

David A's song picked by Paula...

1) And So It Goes by Billy Joel...When asked what he thought he said..I was excited its a very pretty song....starting out with no music..Nice choice, but you know they will come in at the middle...He does have a very rich voice....9.....It was a very nice arrangement...I would say it was one of his best performances.....That could be the one that gets it for him...Randy said check it out man you are in the zone to win...Wow what a great critique..Paula said solid..Simon said good and it was not outstanding...

2)With You..Chris Brown...Acting all stunned...He is getting lost in this song...forgetting the words a bit but singing all huffy...and off in parts but then on in other parts...Not sure what to say about this one..Sounds ok...7....Randy said that he did not think it was the right song....Paula said it was perfect...Simon said I applaud you that you did not do a ballad but it was like a Chihuahua trying to be a Tiger...In so much as its not really you...

3) Producers picked Longer by Dan F...Now they have picked a very easy song for him to sing..He some pitch problems at the start, but has settled in to a safe song and he is sitting down and the people in front told to act like groupies are waving their hands, and he hit one high note to let you know that I should win this but overall just blah...7...Randy said you can sing the phone book..hot hot..Paula said it was lovely..Simon you sang it well but the songs and lyrics were horrible...You will be in the finals next week...

Seyesha up next..Randy picked

1) If I Ain't Got You by Alicia...voice seems a little muted...Singing it well for such a diva song..Coming to the crescendo...did a nice job they will say screamy in some parts...9...Randy said you did an amazing job..You are peaking at the right time..Paula said you are beautiful in which she answered in her best ghetto, thanks girl...Simon said you sang that very well but he picked something that you had to sound like the original...Said it was sung very very well...In her interview with Ryan she was very strange...

2) Fever by Peggy Lee....The acting part is hokey, but she is singing the song really well..She is playing the role of the sexy temptress..Song is very well sung but not exciting...8..did a very nice job with tone and pitch...Randy said you sung it well..Paula said she is surprised that she chose this song...Simon said you will regret this because it was a lame cabaret performance.

3) Producers chose...Well not we must pause..now that I have the DVR...Ryan just messed up again and insulted the gay community... We see the gay character from Entourage in the audience, and it must have thrown him because he goes up to two other guys and tells them about Idols on tour and that they can go together or with dates and the audience hushed..he tried to recover saying he knows its Seyesha's dad..what an odd thing...Creepy....Hit me Up....Not sure who sings the songs but she sounds like Beyonce...She is the most marketable of the three..Now the start sounded better than a few runs in the middle..Screamy but over all she did a great job with the song...8....Randy said it was just OK for me..Paula said something about Happy Feet...said you sang the song well...Not the type of song for you...Simon said it was better than the second song...Your best week was last week...

David C...Simon chose

1) First Time Ever I Saw Your Voice...Odd choice and Simon said he wanted to do something original not like Randy....Acoustic, slight Baroque quality..Yes I know what that it is...And they pan to a lone old woman standing during the whole performance...Started off well..Pitchy in the middle..Once again not a very strong voice but that's ok they have equipment to correct that...9....All did well...Wow his dad is old..Gonna be like me if I ever have kids...Randy said it was good but you are a rocker and Simon did you no justice. Paula said something..Simon said it was one of your best performances...round one goes to Cook and Cowel..

2) Switchfoot...Dare you to Move..David playing the guitar...God he creeps and his voice is either cracking because it is flat as all hell... Lower part horrible..Once again we see he can only scream and this voice sucks..I warn each of you out there....If he becomes the next AI we will hear from him as much as we do Taylor Hicks and Bo Bice...6....Randy said great song choice performance wise not good very pitchy....Paula said something and it sounds like he was not listening because she stopped to point out that this pompous little snot would rather check his gear then listen to the ramblings of a crazy woman...Simon said not much more to add...All three of you had an OK round...

3) Last song from David and the cut to Ryan in the faux mosh pit and all the pretty little people..Over Ryan's right shoulder, stage left of course, is a freaky kid..As Ryan does the Itune commercial the kid is doing a fake smile and turning his head and saying yes to everything Ryan is saying in a mocking fashion..I am replaying it and laughing so hard..This has to be the best performance of the night....11....for the fake mosh pit fan...

Singing I dont want to miss a thing...Started off flat...what a weak voice...Lame arrangement...Do not need to see anymore..I want to miss this thing so now he will scream at the end and fireworks will go off, a firetruck will drive through Ben Affleck will wave and a star will explode in the sky..Cheese dick moment alert...but let watch him bow and and genuflect to the crowd..7.....Randy said it was just ok..Paula said see you in the finals..Simon said David Cook wins the nite....Eh...

I really have to stop watching this show and find better use of my time.....

American Idol-The Last Four

2008-05-06T19:52:00.010-04:00

Well, in what has to be the most disappointing season to date for AI, we are down to the final 4...At least the year Taylor won, it was more enjoyable....Anyway..

Live with Ryan. I still think that Seyesha has sung the most difficult songs in this competition and has been given no credit....Tonight they are doing inner rock star...A tribute to the rock and roll hall in fame in Cleveland...I guess they are going to sing two song again tonight..

David Cook...Hungry Like the Wolf....He has his dog tags on and leather..He is such an original rocker...You really cannot hear the music tonight..The mic is up and he sounds horrible.....it was bad and short...6....Randy said it was ok and a solid performance..it was OK..Paula said something so off the mark...Simon said it was good, it was copy cat..He has this smugness that would leave one to believe that the judges have already told him do not worry I am going to fix this for you.

Seyesha....Proud Mary...Good choice for her but it could be good...Looks good, and at the start sounds good...during the slow parts...energetic..once again she is doing a tough song..Not as good as the original but not bad..8...Randy said you showed up and are in the zone..Paula said you look like a star and you are something...Magic happens..Simon said it was a bad version of Tina...

There is something really wrong with the music mix tonight...

Jason....Doing Marley..I shot the Sheriff...In a word strange...Reggae light..weak and it I am just confused..I think not much the music thing...see my mind turned to jelly..4... Randy said dude nothing special about it...Paula said you performed to the audience but I was not crazy about the song...Simon said stand back...it was atrocious all around..arrangement and singing was bad...

David....Its a fun song to me..Stand by me...Acting goofy...Once again he sounds good but the song is just not relevant...You are trying to be a pop idol and you are singing this song..singing to the crowd....8...I just do not understand it...Randy said check it out...you are hot...Paula said the same thing that she said to everyone else...something about eyes tonight...Simon said you could have whistled a song and it would have been better than Jason..struggled at the end but best performance so far......at the end he guffawed and huffed a bit.

David....being phony...Baba O'Rielly...Oh David you are so cool...his wam beard going...once again we see the limits of this posers voice..The sad part is his quasi rock moves coupled by his weak vocals and his wanna be attitude and trailer trash couture...7...Randy said something is different going on and I like it..Paula said nothing..Simon said welcome back..I just do not get this...It is a really lame singer

Seyesha...Oh God Rascal Flats..these punks show up for everything...Sam Cooke..A change is going to come...speaking about the civil rights movement..Calculated....Hard song again...She or Jason are going home tomorrow but I do think it is unfair...she has consistently sung hard songs and performed well...She is on key with this song and she is controlling her vocals like a pro..There is no one except David A that has as strong of a voice in this at this point..He lacks soul..The ending was fantastic....9.5.....Randy said...He did not love it...this thing is soooo fixed....this is the reason why he was a lame journey member wannabe...Paula said something and it was actually right... week after week she performs well and each week they tear her down.she is crying now and it must be frustrating for her because she is one of the best two singers left and she is going to go home. Simon said...I have to be fair..I agree with Paula...He said Randy was wrong and that it was sung very well...Oops she is playing the race card and she does not have to cause she has mad talent and talent always trumps race and professionalism...With the DVR I have been replaying it and you can actually see her heart break in the silence between where Randy gave his lame remarks and Paula standing up and boy oh boy did she start balling...She fought back the tears as long as she could...When Simon said what he said she released, lost control of everything..she knows she is going home tomorrow and its not fair...It must feel so cheap to know that you performed better than everyone else and you are not given the free ride..

Jason....Mr Tambourine Man......He forgot the words at the start..too huffy and puffy but it is not a bad..the best way to describe his performance is singing mono in a stereo world...It was ok 7....short song..Randy said you are not in the zone tonight...Paula said it did not blow me away but you did...Simon said pack your suitcase....

David A..Love me Tender...Goofy...This is pretty good..Safe for him though but he is on key and his pitch is perfect...Lacks emotion but sounded good..9.5...Randy said it was hot and the best performance of the night..Paula said it was fantastic..Simon said you did not beat the others you crushed them...

Recap...David Cook is lame...Seyesha shows range....Castro...A mess..Archuletta solid but not relevant...

American Idol...5 Left

2008-04-29T19:59:00.007-04:00

Well it is Neil Diamond nite on AI and I am not sure what is going to happen..The top 5 get to sing two songs tonight in one hour..Maybe they will spare us the 5 billion product placements and just make it about the music...

Jason Castro..Forever In Blue Jeans....Low register is off ..He is too nasal..hard song for him to sing since the Neil version is deep and rich..Lost in the middle and the whole thing is bad..He cannot find the right key and register...6..Bad man.... Second Song....Sept Morn..Out of the gate, its off key...He is still having a hard time finding the key, and even at the chorus it is off...He forgot the words a little...I do not even know the song he is singing....6..Bad..overall 12 for the night out of 20...Randy said dude it was just ok..Paula who must have heard him sing three times now..Simon said that this is not the Jason we put in the game and sorry...

David Cook....Playing the electric guitar and playing rock band with his cheese dick AC / DC patches..just corny and fake and poser..song sucked and he sucked...6.... Second Song... All I really Need is You...The way he sings it makes it feel like a bad 60's movie song....better than the first 7....13 overall...Randy said he is a fan and you rocked the house..Come on..Paula said she is sooo proud and pulled it off...Simon said first was ok, second brilliant...I do not see it...Nice flock of seagull hair style...

Brooke...I'm a believer??? ouch this is really bad...No power in her voice, tone is good, at the start she is behind....its all over the place just like the other two....thank god they are not saying things after each song..It lacked energy it lacked everything....6... Second Song...I am I said....Piano sounds nice...Not even sure..It was ok...7 for a 13..Randy said that was a tough song and said it was a nice job. Paula said it was something...Simon said I hated the first song and it was a girls night out..This is the Brooke we like and better than the first

David Archuletta.....Giving a goofy laugh like he does....Neil is old....Sweet Caroline......At least its more alive than the others..The arrangement sucks....Has the best sound of the night but is getting lost between chords as the others have...This song sucks and the movies that use it should be banned...7.... Second Song America...God such a shitty song. He is really hurting himself..Not singing it bad just something about him and the performance....8...Randy said it was great..Paula said it was the best...Simon said it was a smart choice of songs, it ticked the boxes...

Seyesha Mercado...This girl is going to do the best tonight and will be voted off tomorrow...She is the Jen Hudson of the season. Hair relaxed and sitting...Good song choice for her..This is the best performance of the night so far...This could be used in a Disney movie....9... Second Song..Thank the Lord....Trying to do a gospel song here..Singing blues and in the middle really hit a good spot..They are going to say bad choice but I say an 8...Randy said you are in the zone, Paula said something about sides and Minny Riperton..Simon said it is a strange show..Said that she will be in trouble tonight...I really feel bad for this girl

After she is done all the idols came out for advice..

Randy said Jason was ok, David very good. Brooke better last week, David A in the zone, and Seyesha in the zone, not great but very good..

Paula started giving advice on Jason's two songs and Randy pointed out she only sang one..Paula said OMG I thought you sang twice...Simon butted in..and said they all sucked in various ways...He said thank god they have a second song...forgettable, just above avg,nightmare, amateur, and old fashioned...

Over all, the show was really bad tonight..I really want this one to be over..No really fantastic singers....Where in the world is Taylor Hicks...

And a note to my readers..Whose initials are MH...Sign your name to your comments when you are insulting the only other reader that I have....

A thought

2008-04-22T23:03:00.002-04:00

The world and the people that inhabit it in 2008 have the money and the capacity to feed everyone in every country...And we do not..We choose not to...We should be ashamed, but we are not

American Idol Down to Six and Singing Gay songs by Webber

2008-04-22T19:55:00.010-04:00

Songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber..David Archuletta should be in his element tonight...Oh God this is going to be a freaky night...He says he loves working with young people..I bet he does....

Randy said that he and Simon were talking about how this week is going to be..I think it is going to suck and its really not fair..

Seyesha Mercado...She should do good..I love this girl..I think she has one of the better voices in this....Showing her ring...Mic did not come up at first..Her voice is getting lost in parts....but she has a very strong voice..Made sure we did not get an up skirt shot....The song builds..I think the song sucks but she did a great job...9.. even with the screaming at the end.Randy said you could be a huge Broadway star..Paula said something about happy place...you brought the house down..Simon said it was very sexy..One of your strongest performances and lots of personality...I think she always does good..She is probably going off though.....

Jason Castro.....Wow the pre-interview with him is mind numbing....Singing Memories.....Being told to let himself go..I do not think he can pull it off.....Sitting on a chair..A little too breathy....he does not have the strength in his voice to pull this song off....He is not doing a bad job though..I would say a 7....Randy said...Wow said it was a train wreck and it was not his thing..too much melody..Paula said it is a power song and that is not who you are but a wise choice to do it and it makes no sense..Simon said it was the longest two minutes of your life...sounded like a forced wedding song...it was a struggle...not good for him but not really his fault..It would be like if they did a rap night....

Brooke White...Evita Song...Blew it right at the start....She stopped again and re-started...Seems a little flustered but it is building a little...It sounds a little talky but she is bringing it together...Stop the stupid posed people waving their hands in the front row...She may have been thrown by their cheesiness....Have to say that she did not do a bad job...7.5....Randy said check it out dog, but it was ok....Paula said do not start and stop even though they said it was ok last time....she said she did not over act... I have no idea what Paula..Simon said I love live TV because it was dramatic and uncomfortable..She seems like a really nice person...she looks ready to cry....could bve going home...I do like her hair this week....

David Archuletta up next...Waving like a Muppet before the break...Freak...He should do well though and maybe de-throne Clay in Spamalot.....Ok this is very creepy..Hugging David, who does his signature guffaw....Nice choice of the word if I do say so....I guess I get lost in the song...Wow this is pretty good though...So far he is on key and sounding like he could sing it on stage...His and Seyesha are the best of the night so far...The richness in his voice is coming out in this song..The song sucks and is hard to really really get into it but..I guess us Idol fans are being pushed.....9....made a sucky night in songs sound OK...As he closes to a standing O...Randy said yo...you are what this is about and it was a big night for you, it was the bomb and the one to beat..Paula said it was perfect....took a risk and made it a pop ballad..Simon said it was pleasant, a weak performance and will not be remembered but will get you through....

Ya know why House is a good show? It undergoes time changes and day changes and still does well in the ratings...Promote that show and not Bones....

Carly..Superstar?? She is going to do good here too cause she has the voice..I remember this song from the play...Dressed in 60's garb which is good. Short skirt....Good start and good in the less power chords..Nice demonstration of a strong voice but in the stanzas she is getting oversung by the music and back up singers..not her fault..strong voice..8.5.....Very good with some exceptions..Randy said yo check it...said it was not your best and it was good and the clothing was nice..Paula said it was unexpected and she loved the chorus..worst part..Simon said it got shouty and was one of the favs of the night...Carly had a funny Tshirt in the end...

Closing out the night..David Cook...Music of the Night...I do have to say that Lord Andrew does seem to be really coaching it...Breathy and talky...at first...not doing a really bad job...not going to be hurt by tonight..will make it to the next round for sure and actually did pretty good in the higher parts...Low register had its moments but not too bad..9....he is very planned out...Randy said that was amazing...Paula said you are very well rounded and fantastic...Simon said you made the most of the song that you were given...

Such a stupid night tonight....Recap on now....

American Idol Minus That Pompous Ass

2008-04-15T19:49:00.006-04:00

Well America finally listened to me last week and voted off that cheese dick wannabe Aussie Ass. What he lacked in talent, he made up for in extreme cheesiness.

I thought Ryan was going to punk us again with a April fools joke, no, he is crying about Mike Johns being voted off...Hehehe..Maybe they want to date. Guest person tonight is Mariah. Ooops her record is dropping tonight...She is one nutty broad...

David Archuletta acting like a prissy girl and how he is so charged by her...Not sure what song it is right now..We are not afraid...Nice tone on his voice...once again it seems they drown out the singers with the band and backup singers...I made a few pan seared scallops and burnt my tongue, and then trying to cool it off in my mouth bit the side of my mouth..ouch..Nice job, not a stand out but good and nice tone...9...Randy said it was a hard for a guy to sing girl songs and said it was the bomb...Paula said you made her proud..Simon..said I actually agree..I thought it was very good...

Carly...Without you...Nice song choice for her..Did not know that Mariah sang it...Nice tone and pitch..Lower in the middle is lost a bit but it sounds good. She is bringing it out in the middle and I thought it was going to be a little stronger in her voice..but it is very good..9..Nice job...I just think everyone is fighting the band...They cut to her husband and he is tatted all over his face..So I pause the DVR to study his tatts..What mother on earth would let their daughter marry a guy that did that..I guess its a look but....He looks like something from Hell Raiser..Randy said you challenged yourself, but the lower was not good but it was good..Paula said that I think you soared..Simon said.....I really wanted to hear you sing this song..did not pull it off..said you are over thinking it and you held back and it was ok....Good advice

Syesha Mercado...I do believed she is one of the better singers in this..Last time I said this the woman got voted off..She now has an Oscar...Vanishings...She looks fantastic...Wow...she is singing her heart out...with the runs and the octaves..It is the best of the night so far..they may hate it but I think it was a stand out..I may vote tonight...9.5.....Randy said it was a tough song..and you did a good job..Paula said you are smart...learning how to sing and it was magical...Simon said it was very very good, but I am not sure that I would not have chosen that song...

Brooke...Singing Hero..Mariah said she is genuine...Playing the piano..started off tone...but got better..Playing a little too fast right now but it sounds good...Interesting, she was great in the middle but lost it at the end...8...I do not know what happened..she started shaking...Randy said Brooke in the house..said the bridge threw him and lost confidence at the end..Said it was pretty good..Paula said something...it was unplugged but the notes that were off sped her up..see my comments above..hahah..Simon said I don't think you had much choice but it was bit like ordering the hamburger and only getting the bun..the part in the middle was missing..Paula said at the end her and Ryan look great......

Christy Lee...Forever..This girl may surprise you..She has hung in every week for the last few weeks...low register not great but she hits the middle chords..but then back to the lower and it is pitchy again..once again not a bad job but slow and not exciting..However, she hits some parts where it is actually very good....8....Randy said it was not amazing but at the end it was good..Paula said it was not just the end, and you are very smart..Simon said you were not jumping for joys but it did not give me chills, but you were smart but not great...I have to say that this chick is tougher than all the guys and girls combined..I do not hate her cause she gets no props week after week and survives and does not complain..she is pretty good in my eyes..She may hold on until the last two weeks..

David Cook..Always be my baby...This should be interesting...I do not like this guy much either but...Got his male growth on the face....I am a little confused about this..see he should have just played it on the guitar..confused at the start but better at the end but see we cannot tell if he has a good voice...not sure what to rate it...8.5..Randy said you are ready to make an album..said it was brilliant..do not see it..Paula said it could be in a movie..said you are it...Simon said it came from hell into fresh air..I am listening again right now...I still do not think the vocals are that great until the end...He does not have a strong voice and they will have to put his vocals through a harmonizer for album..I stand by my score......He is more opportunistic than good. Simon said at the end that he takes risks..if that's true it should be him and syesha at the finals...

Jason Castro at the end..Not sure what song it is but I like it...I have to say this is really good..It is soft and they may not say challenging but it sounds a little Justin Timberlake...Nice sound to it..A nice song choice for him..I give him a 9..to a 9.5..Randy said he did not love it...strange beach party...Paula said I would love to be there listening there all night long..I actually agree with her..Simon said I agree with Paula said it was not the best vocal, cool version and the guys won the night...

I actually voted for Syesha tonight..Chick deserves it..Its like gymnastics in the Olympics..If you attempt the hard stuff, you get graded on a different level..So if you do good, it is better than someone doing great at a lesser routine..

Mark my words..she will not be in the lower group tomorrow....Once I vote, it becomes bible..

American Idol-Down to 8 Inspirational Songs

2008-04-08T20:01:00.004-04:00

Mike Johns up first....Dream On...What an idiot..this is not an inspirational song..its a song about drug abuse....I guess if you are a crack head...Pitchy at first..Wearing the gayest of ascotts again...oohhhh its just creepy...His voice is soooo weak...He is drowned out by the music which is good cause he is screaming now..He actually cut most of it short cause he knows he cannot sing it...7...Its just crap....Randy said Yo Yo dog...He said it was good song choice but pitch problems....the place went nutz mad..said it was alright..said he had to do it, come on I got the orchestra behind me ...said it was a bad choice...so he is how we know what a vapid little shit this guy is..He says...Im here living in America and dreams can come true so....Randy tried to make some stupid point about this not being about dreams...This is just creepy..This performance is really making me angry..Paula said she disagrees more..said it was a perfect song..You sound as good as you look...Paula said the high notes are going to make her dogs join him on stage..Duh Paula its because they are howling at the horrible song. .Randy said that is what he thought too...Simon said it was a good performance but he is with Randy but you are trying to be a rockstar and it was a wannabe performance....Ryan try to make a joke about testicles but it failed...I should make this pomous fuckers score a 6...

Seyesha Mercado....I Beleive..Once again she is going to do a hard song....Mics seem low...so far so good..do not know how you can compare and vote for the other prick when this girl picks hards songs week after week and nails them..Pitch problem in the middle, but so far the best performance of the night...shows her range..problem is the music is too loud in the background...9..best of the night..Randy said...You took on another big song and yours was ok...said it had no attitude..she is talking back to him as well..she is doing it nicely...Paula said not many people can take on a song like that and that it was a shining night...Simon said to be fair there will be a compare..said you sang it well..it just lacked emotion....

Jason Castro..Over the Rainbow....This guy is a stoner...Playing the uke, so far it sounds good..He is playing a little too fast...Looks funny in the chair...Once again it is a good song for him and I think he is doing a good job..shows no range other than quirkiness..Hits some good nights towards the end..Good job...8..Randy said Jason is back in the hunt and it was hot...best performance of the night..Paula said it was perfect..Simon said fantastic...

Kristy Lee Cook....she will end up doing porn eventually..singing Anyway...This girl is a scrapper..I am just kind of blah with this..I dont listen to country so I have no comparison but it sounds a little flat but the will say it makes no impression...the backup singers are too loud....Not bad...8..better than that fuck Mike Johns....Randy said he liked it..Paula said you out did yourself....Simon said the choice was broad and said you were very good indeed....You look like a star tonight and well done...

Back from break and there is a guy on Simon's lap..Mike Darnell,,,Creep factor is crazy..,

Cook....Innocent by Our Lady Peace...Understands the song he is singing..Ouch you cannot hear him..low register sucks...wierd ...One of the worst choices for songs for him..this may be his worst pick of the show..it is not getting any better. 7.5..Could not understand one word..Randy said did not get it..Not a strong week for you..Paula you are the whole package..like different shows going on...Simon said it was pompous and not good...What about the other loser Mike Johns...Paula is acting very strange...oh god he has give back on his hand...

Carly...Queen the show must go on...Life must go on...Once again the voice is lost in the music...Her hair looks good...Not a great song choice..No one knows the song..having some problems in the middle with yelling and her voice cracking... Nice job but nothing to write home about...8..Average like the others..I think the singers are having a hard time hearing themselves....Randy said it started out good, bad in the middle, ok at the end...Paula said your voice is perfect but there was no connection..she heard that word last time..Simon said you look good..I thought it was a strange choice of song and you over sang it and it looked angry which was not the theme and you may be in trouble....

David Archuletta....If he does not win he may murder someone...Angels??? Robbie song....Playing the piano...Nice touch..Nice song little strange at first but in the middle it getting better..the guys always are creepy except for Daughtry..Not a bad performance..9..pretty good..Randy said check it out..the runs at the end were hot you are hot....loved it...Paula said that sums it up..Simon said best song choice, one of the best song ever written..not your best ever but it was good enought to sail through....I just see this kid gettin beatin by his father....

Brooke up last singing Carol King....You got a friend....did she mess up the lyrics..sounds in pitch....nice song choice for her but she needs to bring it home a bit..safe performance...someone needs to break out.,...8....Randy said it was ok and I aint mad at you...Paula did a shout out to her sister..Simon said it was a walk in the park...it was nice nothing more

I hope during idol gives back they give back about three or four of these freaks

American Idol

2008-04-01T20:53:00.002-04:00

After a really piss poor April Fools Joke, Broke was the first up to sing Jolene, a Dolly Parton song..

Brooke...Starts off with the guy on the seat box hitting a beat like Mcphee did when she did the Tunstall song..Pitchy at first..Her song is not that strong but she has her finger on the pulse of the common person...She is staying with the acoustic version which is good..Fiddle..Letting the guys with equipment do their thing..Fantastic..Best performance of the night..8.....Randy said there were some pitch problems...but it was ok..Paula said something...Simon said there was no emotion in the song, busting your way through, you looked odd..I disagree..I thought she did really good tonight..

David Cook....Little Sparrow...Never heard of it...See his voice is not that good..I have a guest judge with me tonight and they said this guy knows his voice. I have to agree and it could net him the final contract in the end..He has taken a weak song and made it work...8....Nice job...Randy said yo yo check it out baby..you a rocker but it was a hot performance...Paula said I like your haircut..Never heard a guy do that song..Simon said it was not as good as last week but if you can make a song about sparrows good congrats....

Ramielle...Her voice gets lost in the lower register again...seems a little behind in the song...I thought she was going to be a contender but I do not see it anymore...just off a bit..7....Randy said he was not mad at her 6.5 out of 10..Paula said you connected, like the others.Simon said we are not going to remember this, sang it well but something you would see on a cruise ship....

Jason....bathed in green light, he does not know where he is going. seems like it is mic'd wrong..its a happy little ditty but it is not really doing anything to stand out..My guest judge gave a 4..I gave a 6...Randy said it started rough and unsure and then I liked..Paula said it was a strong performance..Simon...Did not like it at all. Sounded like the same song it does not suit you..

Carly....Here you come again...Acoustic version...Her voice was well controlled and sounded pitch perfect..They may say to slow but that is a dolly song..9...Best performance of the night..This could be your winner..Randy said the best of the night..Paula said great...Simon said it was good, not great, just one of those nights...You have to have a word with who is dressing you...Look more like a star..

David Archuletta....I am not too familiar with the song but I think he is singing it well...Best in weeks for him..So far he is on key and his voice sounds strong and a nice performance...9....Randy said you are back tonight..Paula said something..Simon said it was on the money..I agree...

Kristy Lee....Right off the bat she is drown out by the music..Coming back a bit but it is one of those songs that you just don't say is hot...I give it about an 7...Randy said country music is yours..Paula said you look pretty..Simon said last week was your best it was pleasant but forgettable

Syesha..she looks beautiful...she has to slam this song down but it is a more reserved at first...and then the Whitney version...I am mixed..not as good as Whitney but not a bad job..I give about an 8.5..Randy said you took on a big song and you did good..Paula said something about velvet and a voice..Simon the first part was good, but the second part paled to the Whitney version..

Mike Johns..I hate this guy..In the intro you can see he has such a shitty voice...they are going ot love this performance...My guest judge gave it an 8.5..I think he is a cheese dick poser...Randy said you turn it up all the time...Paula said you are a star...Simon said it has been introducing..The best he has heard him sing....

American Idol-And then there were 10

2008-03-25T19:57:00.005-04:00

Well. I missed blogging about AI last week, and I will ask my three readers is there anything more gay I could have done? Answer Yes. I went and saw My Fair Lady at the NJPAC. Hahaha.

Theme tonight. A song from the year they were born..

Ramielle up first......Alone from Heart...What year was she born..Starts off very pitchy..She like a singing midget..wow she is off and flat and yelling...Its just such a bad song choice...Better towards the end, but she is not your American idol....7....Randy said I hear you are sick..said not the right song choice...Pitchy all over the place..Paula...said your voice something sick....She started to cry..As Simon began to talk she put her head down..Said he did not think it was all that bad and you will make it through.. She is really pretty...

Up next....Jason....1987..Damn...Fragile..Sting.. Playing the guitar...he is doing a good job..He knows how to pick a song that does not challenge him enough but will keep him in the mix...8...Randy said..he loves that song, good choice, said did not do too much vocally but it was nice..Paula..you are staying true to you..Saw nothing different so you are playing it safe...Simon said you had two bad weeks and it is time you take it more seriously..sorry....said it was clumsy and too much in your own world...

Syesha..1987...If I were your woman...Little Whitney..gotta bring it Syesha...so far so good Her voice sounds really good and full tonight..and strong, wow she hit every chord and every note in key and loud but not over modulated....9.5..one of the best in the show so far this year....Randy said...Its a good moment and the best you have ever sung..stellar and he was shocked...Paula said what is great is that where you flipped it you were fantastic....Simon said..it was the best so far but he did not think the end was the best...that girl did brought it...

I am actually watching it again since I now have a gift from Christ ..DVR..I actually think that was the inscription on the cross above his head

Chekeezie EZ...1985...If Only For One Night...Not sure what song it is..Pitchy at first but getting into a groove here...Flat in the middle...If you have to compare him to someone it would be Reuben but his voice is not that good. Pitchy in some parts during the middle and it lacks something..ending is better...8...Randy said it seemed old and he did not love it, not hip and cool and boring..Paula said she does not agree, said it was a great job..Simon said...sang it well but performance was cheesy...you have to show that you are original..song had no personality..

Brooke......Police....Every Breath you take...Messed it up at first...Piano nice take but they are gonna say she is hiding behind the piano...I don't understand why start off playing the piano and then bring the band in..Play it one way...not loving it but she is doing well...8..Randy said great song choice, loved that you messed it up but said when she got to the bridge did not like it..Lose the band see what I said..Paula said it was better than last week..She used the word niche again..Simon said just stay with the piano..Good enough to keep you in for another week..First half good even with the mistake second half no...

Mike Johns....Lame ass poser with his stupid stories...Queen...We will rock you..Come on...Cheese dick..Just to get the crowd on its feet...His voice is not strong and now thinks he will go the Konstantine route..I think he thinks he is God...I think he thinks he just rose from the dead last Sunday...This is a lame song and he is yelling and the girls love it...7...
Randy said yo yo dog..it was great and the best performance for me..Paula said this is your right song..Its your moment..Simon...first time with you I saw star potential...best performance of the night..no way..

Carly...Total Eclipse of the Heart..Good choice for her..This Irish chick can sing..in tune and no pitch problems..the version was too fast....9...she was blowing at the end..and she sung well too..Randy said....Interesting song choice....not good...not a good song choice..Paula said something...Simon said something did not work..did not enjoy it well..said you were uptight or something....

David Archuletta.....This kid always looks stunned..1990..OMG Not sure what song it is...It is bad in the low register...like he cannot hear the music...Its almost like it takes him a few seconds to get into the song..I do not know how to rate this song since I cannot compare it to anything...8... Randy said it was a strange choice but you can sing, don't know the song..Paula said she did not know the song..Simon said you sang well in parts and he did not like the performance and it was like a theme park performance and there are dancing animated creatures...

Christy Lee..She should have been gone a few weeks ago...God Bless The USA...Going for the votes of the people in the middle of the country..Its easy to hoodwink them..I have to say that she gets a bad rap but she can sing a bit...very country but solid..Nothing original and she gets knocked down when she does and will get knocked down for this but she did a good job..She sang each note well and strong...8.5..Randy said it was a little pitchy but good and good choice..Paula said it was good and your voice is much stronger...Simon said your best performance by a mile and best song choice and performance in years....

David Cook to close.. I am not a big fan of this guy..One of those guys that I just do not understand him...More about image than singing like Mike Johns....1982...Thin haired MFer...Singing Billie Jean but he is doing the Chris Cornell version..See he steals the whole concept..I just dont like him for this reason...He is going to pass it off like his own..Its an easy song for him to sing... 8.5...Sang it well but it was a stolen concept...Randy said you are the most original...said you are the winner..come on nothing about that be original..Paula said you are smart and strong and something...Simon said it was brave and it was amazin....He did do it well but it was so far from original

Mike or Jason should go

American Idol.Final 12-Beatle Songs

2008-03-11T20:00:00.012-04:00

Well both the boys and girls are singing together tonight. Ryan introducing the new set at the Kodak Theatre? The band is in the air? That is gonna make for some wierd sounds..And a fake mosh pit..Do not think I agree with Asia going last week..But it happens..They sing one song tonight and its all about the Beatles...Randy said they put the song down those Beatle boys..Paula says sing it straight it will be good but if you change it have your game on..Simon gave Ryan a duh since he asked a dumb question..

Sayeesha.....Got to get you into my life...Might be a bad choice for her....Started off lost and rough...I am not sure about this one..Not a great song for her..Her voice gets lost in the lower registers and she has this one note she holds out for and then its a little flat...Its a much different version so she gets credit for that so I give her an 8.5....Randy said it started rough, by the middle it got better...Paula said you are a very good singer and it was pitchy at first...Simon said it was better than alright..said it was a good choice of song and you looked nervous and much better than last week..

I think who ever does Norweigan Wood, Fool on the Hill, a slow version of Day in the life, Yesterday, Long and winding road..Amanda should do Helter Skelter

Chekeezie...Ok way too much talk...She's a Woman...Oh God he is doing the sitting down thing..Doing a blue grass version..Very original..Possible dark horse..Has the crowd going..I think he should have stayed all blue grass but it is a very good job..9...Not to a familiar with the song..Randy said the arrangement was dope and he smashed it...Paula said you started with this O brother vibe and it paid off etc etc..Simon said I am surprised that I have to agree with these two..Said you looked like you changed and I thought you were terrific.

Ramielle...She is Soy Cute..The whole family are midgets..She is such a pretty girl...In My Life..Good choice of song..Here we go...On the staircase...She has great control over her chords...Oh God the mosh pit has been trained to do things..I hate that...She is hitting every chord but it is a little slow...Now she is opening it up...That was a perfect song..One of the best of thre night...9.....Disney good...Randy said boring, it laid there..Paula said you look pretty...Said it was pretty safe and she needs to step it up..Simon said he was bored to tears, from the standing on the stairs to the song that did nothing for her...I expect much more from you cause you are better..

Jason Castro....If I Fell...Good choice....Playing the guitar I think this kid is a true artist out of all of them...Sounds like that one group in the 90's ...Forget their name...Not energetic but good..I like...8.5....Randy said liked it not loved it, said the switches confused him..Paula said she disagrees....She feels his heart and thaet is special...Simon said last week you were incredible but tonight a student in a bedroom at midnite and it was boring..Good enough to stay in until next week...

Up next is Carly...Come Together....I do not like the song that much..She sings it well..She said she is going to change it but she has not...She sang it perfect until the end where she was screaming...9....Randy said you were strong and confident and said it was great. Paula said something..Simon said you picked the right song and that it reminds me about Kelly Clarkson

David Cook....Elenor Rigby...ouch..flat and slow at first...thinks he is Daughtry with hair...His voice is not strong and it sounds muffled but people are going to think it is a great song cause of the lights...I just dont get it...8....People are going for the look not the content...Randy said you can rock out...said there was pitch problems..do this you got this..Paula said you are good...Simon said he thought it was brilliant..I do not get that...

Brooke White....Let It Be..Good song choice for her.....Playing the piano...I like the instruments thing..messed up a word in song..just the piano at first but the band is coming in at the end...very solid performance...never got out from behind the piano and you do not see her that much..Good job ...9....Randy said not your strongest performance but bery heartfelt...Paula said this is your niche...Simon said it was again one of the best performances of the night, a brilliant choice of songs..She is crying

David Hernandez waving from the birds nest before going to break..He probably wants to dance for everyone if you know what I mean. Saw you Standing there...God he is out in the audience..Too much running around and he hit some pitch problems because he was running around. It comes off way too cheesey...I never really got this song and I guess why we see why the beatles can only cover it...7.5...Randy said you have a big voice and said it was overdone...Paula said it was overdone and scale it back...Simon said No NO NO said it was corny and not cool..Not a strong performance..Agreed.

Amanda...looking like a cat again...You cant do that....I like it.Good song choice for her weak voice...she does a good job belting it out and screaming...Have to say one of the better performances of the night...9...Did a nice job in making the song hers...Randy said you took a beatle song and rocked it out and I loved it...Paula..everyone is having fun to Paula...Simon said it was not as good as last week...shouty..said it is a good thing cause you are fresh but week over week not as good as last week...

I love the snake charmer commercial with Kelly Clarkson

Mike Johns....Just hate this guy..Across the Universe..Good song..Starts across acoustic...His mouth looks like David Bowie's when he sings...I just do not like his voice..Its not distinctive, but he is doing a good job with this song...Just too safe of a song...7.5...Not good for me but they are going to love it....Randy said waiting for something good to happen but it did not...Paula said something that made no sense..Simon said he agrees with Randy. Said he you are not singing below your ability. I agree

Christy Lee....8 Days A Week..Country style...Sounds like she is in love with Simon...Wow very different.Much different sound but very original...It may be better slower..It is a really good idea but it is moving tooo fast for her but I have to say very original..That could be a hit done just a little different..7.5....Randy said he liked the idea but he is torn...Paula said she did not like it, did not get it...Simon said it was bad...very brave but foolish...I do not agree with him..It just had to be a little slower...She may be going home...

Closing out the show, Idol front runner David Archuletta...We Can Work It Out...Forgot the words at the beginning and it is ruining the whole song..His voice is good and yet he befuddled right now...Brought it home at the end..how do you score this.....Voice was great but messed up...Still think he did good...8....Randy said I like your voice and but it did not work...Paula said something...Simon said that was a mess, he expects incredible performances and yet it was his weakest....

American Idol-Ladies

2008-03-05T20:00:00.008-05:00

Up first is Asia'H...Little Whitney...I am not sure..it sounds pretty good.Sounds not bad..Kind of like the original..When she hit the middle with the run her voice gave out...I like her but I give it an 8.5....Randy said well he dropped his own name said it was a hot and you belong here..Paula said it is a big song and said she nailed it..Simon said at best it was second rate Whitney..Said she did do the Whitney version..Said you are good enough for the top 12...

Kady...Not sure what song it is..Little pitchy in parts and flat in others and yelly in the middle..I do not even know what song this is..I am not sure..8..Randy said it was pretty good, hit the big notes well and the smaller note not..Paula said to date this is your best performance...Somthing about magic..Simon said better than last week but feels that she has a massive lack of personality..Said its gloomy..No emotion and you may be in trougle...

Amanda Overmeyer...The lion woman..Joan Jett...Did not see this coming..she is having mic problems and movement issues..She is pulling the mic away and then you cannot hear her..This performance looks like it would happen late night at a redneck club and this one is about to do a strip tease....7.. do not get it...Randy said that is the Amanda girl we love and well done..Paula said she was pretty..Simon...He thought it was fantastic..I do not see it

Carly singing Cindy Lauper...This girl is pretty consistent..Her and her tats...The arrangement seems slower than the original but so far the best of the night...9....Randy said yo you are smashing it...Great performance...Paula said you are a dependable dog....said you are having a great time...Simon said I do not think you chose the right song...said it does not show you off well..I actually thought it was pretty good...

Christy....Journey....making it sound very country...Randy is going to say how he played on this song or something..little pitch problems in the middle but overall pretty good...nope she is off key a little and it just lacks energy...7.5....Randy said Journey dear to his heart...you made it sound country..Paula said ...that could be a country hit...Simon said people could forget you..At best see you coming in 10..God they cut to Luke Minard and he looks like a cartoon character...

Ramielle...Phil Collins song...The songs are all starting out way too slow...nice voice control...at the end she was hitting all the big notes but I think she is trying to change the song too much...8.5....Randy said another big song good vocal but you seem to be holding back...Paula said you are hot and innocent..I think she asked her out...Paula fell apart..Simon said you are little and cute..but said it was old fashion and not a big money note...said he is not jumping out of his chair...they are making reference to her myspace pictures....Oh god, Danny is wearing her glasses...and making a claw with his fingers...What is that about..

Brooke....Pat Benetar...Shout out to JV who called this...This is a really nice version acoustic...This is the best performance of the night so far..Not a super strong voice but it is very haunting...10.....Wow that was very very good..Randy said he really liked it but did not bring anything new..Paula said it was a wise choice very pure...said it did not build...Simon said it worked purely that it was so original said you made it suit you and two weeks running you did a great performance....

Sayeesha to close it out tonight Oh no Whitney...Love this girls hair...I think she is doing a pretty good job with the song since it is a big song..Hard to pull it off but I think she did.. A little slower....but 9.5...Randy said good, Paula said sophisticated lovely and Simon said predictable but good...

Week 2 Live-Ladies Night Top 10

I'd like to say the ladies have their work cut out for them, but they do not..short of vomiting on stage, which by the way would probably beat out at least three of the guys last night, the girls would be pretty safe if they made the contest less sexist. That said we turn our attentions to the ladies singing the 70's..And to make it really fair bring Danny N over to the female side..Its just a question of time before he goes post op.

Last night Ryan called Simon the King of all Media..Clearly a reference to Howard Stern..God Randy always says the girls have to step it up..He is sooooo wrong...

Carly Smith..Up first...Works at an Irish Pub..Don't forsee them cutting to the pub towards the finals...Singing Heart....Pitchy on the first few notes....Very good...she comes off as yelling a bit but it still sounds pretty strong...Not as strong as the original but not bad at all...She was getting tired at the end in her voice but a solid performance not going home...8.5.....Randy said..he laughed..said it was good at the end but pitchy at the start...by middle you got it together dog..Paula said you are healthy...ok we know you love heart...Amazing job...Simon said....Much better performance than last week, you are out of breath. Said she is in an incredible singer but has not chosen the one song that gives you the abosolute moment..The girl to beat..If that is the case than David A wins...She is weak compared to him...So far the best performance of the night...

Back from the break and it is Syesha Mercado....that was a pretty funny intro...Me and Mr Jones..We got a thing going on..Too much vibrato at the start and the slow register is slow and off...she seems behins in the song..Nice soul version..Notice the engagement ring on her finger..This is a song that is a good choice but it is slow and it is an explosive song....She is brought it at the end...8.5...Never got going...Randy said he loved the commercial and the baby cry..said she seemed uninterested..only a taste of what you got..Paula said on the softer notes she goes off..Simon said it was indulgent, silly to do it...said he was put off..song not designed for her voice, not a clever voice..She is a good singer.

Brooke White..Went to beauty school..Hair is an artform..If thats true my hair is abstract right now..Me and Mr H. Playing the guitar...Carly Simon..Nice choice for her...pitchy in the middle good start...She is not owning the song..I think the guitar is confusing her...reminds me from the verion in How to Lose a guy in 10 days..Could have been huge came up small.....8....Randy laughed and said great song choice..Said she brought nothing different..Paula said perfect song choice...no one is saying if it is good or not... Simon said he loved it...Perfect song, see I do not see that..Oh well....

Ramieele is up next..She is cute and dresses cute...Don't leave me this way...a big song and she is starting out really really well..wow this is your best girl performance of the night right now. it seems very easy for her...9.5...Randy said it was rough..do not understand that, not his favorite choice..Paula said you are one to beat..vocals are amazing but she just powered through it..Simon said that he agrees with Paula..said you had more personality...I do not agree with any of the judges.

Christy Lee Cook..She is a Tom Boy...Love that movie...You're no good..She is strutting on the stage...Not bad, but if she gets voted off this may not be the song you need to re-sing...its not bad but just nothing..one of those performances that you say eh....Thinks she is Carrie Underwood....8....Randy said big improvement from last week, was waiting for the breakout, never came, but it was good..Paula said nothing..Simon said he cannot remember what she sang last week, but this was better..Said go down the country route..Has potential..

Amanda Overmeyer...Singing Kansas and dressed looking like a Lion...ouch the lower register and the whole omg god she is singing a different song...wow this is really bad..Worst of the night so far..She is doing too much dancing..This is freaky now....Moustaffa stop..Please...5...that was bad..Randy laughed..Not the right song..verses very pitchy..Paula said you can dance...she is going home..Paula said she is a brilliant artist..Simon said it was put on, indulgent song nothing natural or real and it was quite an ugly song and he did not get it..

I lost Alaina..the website went down...I have her an 8
Aleandria Lushington...If you believe me now...Lowever register soft...Not the right song for her and she is dressedstrange..I think she is a much better singer than what has come off in the lst two weeks..do not understand the F Mepumps with the grunge garb...6.5...Randy said it was safe and you have mad skills and it was not challenging..Paulashe feels like she made it her own..Simon said he was a big fan but now she is struggling and she was inconsistentand you looked out of your skin..Said it was boring..She is beautiful..Wrong use of the word intake..She is giving up
Ouch, missed who this is..it is so bad..Singing heart and it is just awful...4..do not even know what to say..thisis really just bad..picked for looks and not talent...Randy said...strange song choices...she said you never foundthe notes and out of pitch the whole time..Paula said you lost it a bit..simon said it went no where

Second Week Live-10 Guyes

2008-02-26T20:00:00.011-05:00

Classics from the 70's...

Mike John....Ok I get it he likes tennis...Fleetwood Mac..Very pitchy and no energy..I think this guy thinks he has this won..flat in parts...He is not....7....Not good..Randy said not your best...Paula..said consistent..she is off on this...Simon said it was ok, your weakest, no moment and weak choice.....I think it sucked..

Jason Castro....The guy has no personality...Playing again...For So Long..Bee Gees..Nice take on the song..He has to emote more..His soul is in the song..sound like Iglesias...Good when it goes to the guitar..Its a good song..8...He is one of the final two guys...Randy said...It was just ok.....Paula said you are cute..said lets see you as an artist..Simon said it was horrible, did not suit the voice..Average choice of song..I agree with all of them..

Luke Minard....Guy creeps me out...Singing Queen...He is too calculated..Thinks he is the other dude from the other season..Not a strong voice, too nasal...I think he thinks he thinks hes Luke Perry..oohh its creepy...7.... Randy said it was good some pitch problems...Paula said it was a good week for you...Whatever...Simon said it was a mistake, the singer of that song had charisma and personality and whiny....He is right..Horrible...Once again it is not a model show its singing..He is a good looking guy with a weak voice...

Robby....Drag Racer..Singing Hot Blooded...Not sure yet, the start was weak...I am on the fence..Guy has a good voice, not a great voice...Song has no energy, does not stand out..7.5...Randy said it was one of his favorite song but said you did not have that rock voice..He is no Daughtry..Randy did not say that I did..Paula said nothing...played it safe..Simon said the vocal was ok..

Danny Noriega up next..This kid is a creepy metro..Oh God..Walking out slowly and singing Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby....His voice is ok not great its creepy, the hair the girly voice, and no relevance,,,,6....Randy laughed again said there was problems with the song..said let it go..Paula said you are amazing..nothing ..Simon..Said it was not fantastic but better than last week, said you standout and look terriffic..

David Hernandez...Papa was a rolling stone..Better than last week...So far the strongest voice of the night..Lacks the soul to sing the song but he did a good job..I am not sure so I will give him an ...8.5.....Best of the night s far but not fantastic..Randy said this is the David we fell in love with..Randy said it was hot...Paula said it is pure and was amazing...Simon said it was the best vocal of the night..so far..read ahead..says you take criticism well...See how good I am..I really should be making a million a year and do this for a living..

Jason up next strange Pauly Walnutz hair..Seems pretty even keeled in his pre piece...Doobie Bros...Without Love...once again the guys can sing the songs but they do not control the songs...Its Doobie light...wow just lame creepy...7....Randy said it was pitchy and did not get it...Paula said it was not many notes that show something..Simon said last week was boring and this week was ordinary and it was like he was drunk at a party and it was corny...Not your American idol..guy said we are all killer singers..No your not dude...That was funny..He is saying that he has all the things that he really does not have..Says he has range, have not seen it..

See this is the problem. They keep 12 of each gender..It really should have been 4 and 20..Guys being the 4..Vote off the 4 worst each week..then you have a fair game. These guys are so bad with the exception of two after tonight..

Chickeeze...Not sure what song it is..He does have a strong voice....this is a good song for him i have no idea what song it is...His voice is good and strong..Maybe it was nerves last week..Best performance of the night...9...Randy said you are back...Said it was blazin and hot..Agreed..Paula said it was brilliant...Simon said it was great and I got a phone call in the middle..I missed some of it..

David Cook...plays the guitar lefty..Not many do..Too much playing and not much singing..Alright now is the song..Voice is better than most tonight but not great...Hokey in parts.....8.6.....Randy laughed again and then said he loved that he threw the pics out...said you are the real rocker and smart choice of songs..Paula said the back up band is on fire...Simon said David it was solid...but he is boring..and no charisma and now Simon is shooting back to his smart mouth..

David A...Imagine..Great song...Wow, this is the first wow performance...of this season...This is your american idol guy...He has a strong voice....10....Best performance of the night...Randy said it was one of the best vocals of the show...mature for your age...said it was hot..Paula said something nutz... said it was beautiful..Simon said it was risky doing the song was risky and now you are the one to beat after that...He is right...no other guy can compare to David A...He is goofy but they are right..Song gave me the chills a bit..So far the best in this season....

There are only three guys that guys that should move on...Dave A, Dave H, and Chekeezee at this point..Everyone else sucks

American Idol..Female 12

2008-02-20T19:58:00.016-05:00

Well after watching it last night and discussing it today..Yes I have no life..heheheh...There are only 3 or 4 guys that can sing...I really wish they could vote off 4 guys on Thursday...Ryan talking to the ladies..and to the judges...Randy saying the girls have their work cut out for them...Not sure if I agree..Paula said just bring it...Ryan asked about the talking back...to Simon last night and he said he loves it...Girls are singing the 60's and now we head into a fluff piece..

First up is Kristy Lee...Rescue me..Song just does not move me...It seems like she is just singing it and not really putting any energy..just kind of singing by the numbers...Like a paint by number set...6.5..Randy said Dude I know it crazy pressure..you had pitch problems..I did not see that..Paula said that its ok because you are sick...Paula and Simon are fighting over what she had...Simon said this is important..Said the song does not suit her, did not belt it out, and her performance was very robotic..Said it was nothing to grab hold and made no impression..I do agree.

Joanne.I think this girl is going to be pretty good.. And she is from Hoboken..Started off a little off..cannot hear her in the low register..I am not sure if it is the mic or if you just cannot hear it..It seems rushed..not a bad performance.7.5..Actually I just took it off surround..Randy said that it started off wierd and unsure..Paula said nothing..said she liked it did not love it..Simon said he did not love it..Said it was average cabaret..No confidence..Nothing he could take hold of during the performance.. I hope she stays in..I think she could be the next Jenn Hudson...

Up next is Alaina..She is the youngest at 16...Not sure what song it is, but it is slow..could be love you more than yesterday...It is and getting faster...Not bad..voice is not as strong as Carrie Underwood..A little nasal but it was the best performance of the night so far..8.5...Randy said this is the year of the young ones..Paula said it is a feel good song..I do not know what she said...Simon...I think you are very good..First time tonight there were no nerves..said he hated the song but she made it good...Said she should be going to the next round..

Now this needs to be said..They cut away from time to time and they show the guys..God do they look creepy.

Amanda Overmeyer....The rocker chick..sings too much Joplin...Got a hair doo that looks like a spider..She has the white hair whispy thing going on in the front..Not sure what song it is..I do not think she is doing bad but I do not think that people are gonna like it because it makes no sense or gets them hooked..Its like something you see at the backstage at Woodstock at the opening..7.5.Randy said..He loved the rock thing and her pants...Paula said she loves everything...Simon said I like you and I think you are authentic..said he thought it was all over the place...banter at the end with Ryan made me vomit..

Amy Davis Wow..How horrible..the whole song was off key.. and so slow..I am actually feeling bad for her...ouch..my dog is howling..4.5...Worst of all both nights...Randy said it was not great.. Paula said you looked good...Simon said nothing more to say..said it was boring, horrible,you looked great but sounded horrible....She is going off tomorrow night..

Brooke White..The Nanny, 24, I think she is married too at this age... She plays an instrument...Another Turtle song??? Are they getting paid for this....Happy together...She has a good voice...Not a great song, it could be forgotten...it is getting mundane but you can see she has a good voice...8.....Randy said it started it off rough but it got better..Simon asked him what he meant..Paula said she is original..and picked the right song..Simon said you chose the right song but it feels like a washing up soap commercial..said it was sang well but it was something...

Alexandria..I think she could be really good..17...she looks fantastic...Singing a three dog nite song...Not a great choice...She is singing it well, making it her own..You can tell she has such a great voice...Odd choice a song..High registers were ok made no sense..Song does not make sense..she could have picked a better song...8.5.... Randy said she blew the doors off..Paula said she took control..said it showed confidence...Simon said he did not get it..did not think the vocal was great..everyone is booing Simon...

I love how the girls are always taller than that little munchkin Ryan

Kady Malloy.....In a chair..I hate that...She is doing a song that was remade by Phil Collins..Goovy Kind of Love...She has a very rich voice and very country..she has a very strong voice...Pitchy in the middle..It may be too slow but you can see she does have a good voice..bad chords...8.... Randy said it was ok and controlled..got lost in the song..Paula said you look pretty..Simon said he agrees with Paula..said it was like night of the living dead..Kady i sshooting daggers at Simon...They told her to be her..Good advice because as Simon said she was blah...She is a very pretty girl..

Asia Epperson....She is playing the dead daddy thing too much..She only seems phased by it when it benefits her..Singing Janis Joplin..What is this Janis Joplin thing...wow, this is the bvest performance of the night.Looks good, sounds good, and is breaking it off...knows how to let the camera play good...Best of the night so far...9.....Randy said he loved it..Very impressed...Paula said you had fun..Simon favorite of the night, you let go good voice, and fun..What a sexy girl.. Potential of being the next idol

Ramieele Little girl with a big voice..Singing you dont have to say you love me..she has a really good voice, is really pretty and sang the song to the note..Nice job ...9...Randy said you stuck to the song and it was a pro job..Paula said something...Simon said I did not like you at first..during hollywood, you were consistent...but said the best so far..Could be a potential AI finalist

What we are seeing here once again is that the girls are really good singers and most of the guys are really not..

Sayeesha....really pretty..singing Tobacco road..Odd choice but she is singing it well..Once again you can tell she has a good voice but odd song..lots of energy..I give it a 9 but not for song choice..Randy said not his favorite but consistent..Paula said something ...Simon...it was not your best but is probably one of the most talented in the competition..agreed..she has the the total package..

Carly...last girl up for the night...Not sue what song it is at first but she does have a really good voice..song selection..you can see she has a good voice again but it is taking the energy out of the crowd....9.... Very strong voice......Randy said that is what the show is about. Best vocal of the 24 so far...Paula said something..Simon said the song was too old for you, mic technique was cabaret, said he was expecting fantastic but did not get it...Once again Simon is not allowed to speak his mind.....

Kristy and Amy should be going home for the girls...There are 5 really strong girls right now and 3 guys

Haha..I just posted before and right after I did Simon said there are 3 strong guys and 3 maybe a few more strong girls....

American Idol Men First?

2008-02-19T19:58:00.016-05:00

In all the years they have been doing AI, the guys have never gone first..Be that as it may. The guys are up first..Top 12 guys..As always Ryan out there explaining the process and introducing the players...Heading to commercial break and we see that they spent 15 minutes on fluff...

First guy up..Songs are from the 60's

David Hernandez....Singing Wait to the midnight hour..Different..He is doing a gospel version of the song..Original...He is in a bad position since he is first..Voice is good but not super strong..Either that or there is too much echo... Will give him a 7..Randy..like the gospel..Said the front was good but the back was ok...Paula...you have great vocals..Has perfect vibrato..Simon...Said it was better than what he thought..said he was not loose.. Nothing distinct during the song...

Chickeezee....Not sure how you spell it...Has the best name...Not sure what song it is but it is flat and behind the music..got better towards the middle..The song is love your more than yesterday..not sure..I say about a 6.5..Randy...It was pretty good..said it was alright..Paula...good to see you...said he did a good job..Simon...hated the whole performance..said the suit, the wink and it was corny and cheesey...Chickeeze is doing the stupid thing and talking back to him..I hate that throw him off for that..Not your american idol...

Ryan back with the crew and is talking with a strange dude that made the cut...

David Cook...So Happy Together...The Turtles..each song starts out slow..not bad at the start but yelling in the middle..seems like he is rushing through..it was ok..7...Randy...said it was strange at the start but got better...Paula...said it was great..Simon..said it was good. but shouted in the middle....Said you almost made it beleivable..

Up next is The guy with the freaky steak in his hair.Pauly Walnutz...Jason Yeager..Sittin the chair and singing Moon River..Horribly slow and cheesy..no energy..I think he things he is Clay.....Not sure what to give it..Bad choice....Not strong too old...7...Randy said did a good job, but it was tough...said all the guys can blow but lost it pitch wise..I think it was just boring..Paula...good advice Randy...Paula likes it cause she knows the song..Simon...How old are you cause you came off too old and like a cruise ship performance...Said people are going to have a huge question mark over their head..like a sheep dog..God lose the hair thing..

Resident Rocker..Robbie...One by three dog night...Best song choice for him, best choice of the night so far...Got some energy, song choice gives him the best score of the night...8.5...Randy said it was good that he liked it..Paula said he picked the perfect song and blah blah..vocals in the pocket..Simon..only performance that has made sense tonight so far. said it was good..questions authenticity..he is right..the guy sang with Christina Ag...

David Archuletta...Momma told me to shop around...Kind of strange voice..so far the best boy voice...in tune no problems with pitch...strong voice so far of all the guys...9..Best so far..Randy said... it was brilliant and sang it so mature for his age..Paula...Brave and bold and never saw that side of him..she is getting lost..Simon said you have it and the best performance of the night so far..boy can i call these things..he is goofy..and he is smaller than Ryan..

Danny N..Looks like a girl and acts like one too..singing Jailhouse rock...I dont get it...He sings good but...I just dont care....he comes off freaky in a bad way....6...bad song choice..Randy...You know have a good time...said it was ok...song choice bad but has a great time..Paula...something about colors and voices etc..dont get her...Simon...said it was grotesque..said it was hideous and if it was the first time someone tuned in for the first time said they would think there was no talent..OOhhhh he creeps me out with his metro whine and sassy reponses...I have seen characters like him in the movie Party Monster...Creep factor would bring him down to a 3..You expect to see him in a tickle fetish video as the dominatix...I have to go shower and get that performance off my skin, or at least out from under it

I think what I do not like about most of the guy singers is that they come off too much like woman..there is too much estrogen in the coca cola red room tonight. Most are making Ryan look like Chuck Zito..

Luke Minard...Captain John Luke Minard..What freaks me is out is guys that wear hats for style..I wear it to hide my hair...In the summertime...or something like that..started off really shaky...good song choice but he is very pitchy..getting a little better towards the end but then hits patches where he sucks...7..not that great..thinks his looks will get him through..Randy...very pitchy..never settled....Paula said she agrees not good song choice..Simon asked Paula what color..Simon said it was blah..worse trap is that no one will remember..said you did not put a stamp on it...little strange banter at the end between Simon and the dude..

Colton..This guy might freak me out a bit too.. He is wearing a flock of seagulls haircut... I dont like guys that hug there mom long....Singing Caught in Trap...I do not know what this is...not a strong voice, not a great voice...too much mugging for the camera and pantamime...7....Randy said you had a good time..said pretty good..Paula...nice to see a different side..not your best performance...Simon...it was ok..got nothing from it..more musical theater..does not see a recording artist..waste of time...not current...Simon said worry about the singing rather than the hair...

I like the Kelly Clarkson add for the flavored water...So far it was or has been a waste of a nite watching this.I kmow tomorrow will be better... Without even hearing the girls I think they should vote off 4 guys on Thursday...

Garrett... all the guys are short this year...singing breaking up is hard to do..way too old of a song..Sings like a girl but not a good singing firl..oh i am so creeped out by this and the guys looking on from above and Luke is swaying to the song..its ok..he has sparse facial hair..just blah for me...7..good tone...Randy said he did nothing with it...old and some pitch problems and boring.. Paula said it brought the performance down..Simon said you look scared, boring and shut up in your bedroom..Said he looked haunted..said he needs to breathe..Not current..Simon is right.. Seems like a nice kid...Not your AI

Jason Castro up next with an instrument...got the dreads...what a day for a day dream..odd choice..but it works...got good tone, good reach, good strong voice,,nice command of the song and where he is in the song....I like it..9..not bad...Randy said...it was pitchy but is ok..did not blow him away...Paula said she was blown away...said he is a blend of all colors...Simon said it was in the top two performances..said like David they just get it..effortless and terrific..I should be a judge..

Mike Johns up next but once again..He has a scarf on.I hate fashion for fashion sake..its creepy..its not a fashion show..That is on the WB with Tyra....
light my fire...another doors songs...it started good until he said fire..lost it for me...taking the easy way out on each of the runs...8..did nothing for me..Randy..loved him the day he saw him...the fix is in..said it was hot..do not see it..Paula said he set everyone on fire..Simon..most consistent but did not like it better than his other stuff..said he had charisma...

For me best performances were..David and Jason and then Robbie...Worst are Danny and Luke, and Colton, and Garrett

LIAR LIAR Mound on FIRE

2008-02-13T22:12:00.005-05:00

I had the fortune today to watch the Clemens hearing as I worked. It was fantastic TV. I always hated Clemens because I always thought he was such a poor sport on the field. I think what we have all learned over the last few months is that he is not a poor sport, but rather, he was in the throes of Roid Rage when he acted out to hurt fellow ball players. Having played and coached sports, I have always thought and taught that all athletes belong to a fraternity of players which holds that although sports are competative and aggressive, they were never about aggression with a passion to hurt. As a player and as a coach I have always recoginzed when a fantastic play was made be it on my team or not, and I always had the class as I see it to congratulate players that deserved it.

That said...today, as he did in the 60 minutes interview, Roger looked the country in the face and lied. He may never be convicted of it, but he lied to congress, America, ball fans, Yankee fans, himself, his mother, his children, his wife, and whatever spirit he thinks will save his small dark soul. The only people that should or could have any respect for him are those two dirty little pittbull lawyers that stood up out of order defending his liar ass. Thank God Waxman had the voice to shut them up.... ..

Many people are surprised, but I knew many years ago as he threw balls at players heads to end their careers. During the NY Mets and Yankee subway series, when Piazza hit the foul ball and broke his bat..No person today could argue that he picked that broken bat up and with criminal intent went to throw that bat at Piazza. The snakes response, I thought it was the ball, and I was trying to throw the bat out of the way..Like being at a roid party with all your roid shooting friends, and the trainers walk in and shoot people up, and all you can say is I was not aware....LIAR

Music's Biggest Nite-2008 Grammys

2008-02-10T20:05:00.000-05:00

We start out with a nice duet with Alicia Keys and Old Blue Eyes via technology. Opening remarks by Alica to introduce last years new artist winner and AI winner Carrie Underwood singing Before He Cheated. Alicia looks fine and so does Carrie. Both singing live as far as I can tell..In the Carrie song there are background people keeping the beat with sticks to give the illusion that they are poor and have no instruments but music is everywhere..Very cliche when done on tv.

Prince out next to givce the first award.Orange suit..Best R&B female..Mary J Just Fine, Fantasia, See you,,Lost the rest but it is a very hard one to call..Alicia won for everything gonna be alright..

Back from break at at 816 and Jimmy Jam came out but then was joined by Morris Day and the time.They sang Jungle Love..They were joined by Rhiana doing Umbrella..Chicks with Umbrella..Then she went into some othe song that I have no idea what it is right now..then a quick tribute to Mike J..Morris Day did his thing by checking his watch as he did in purple rain and Rhianna laughed..

Back from break and some girl one..Introducing the Foo fighters...The foo fighters always sing live and always sing intense..Great performance..so far there is yet to be a bad performance...

George Lopez..Introducing some guy Paisley..Have no idea..oops just heard the song and its country...Thats the reason why I have no idea who this guy is but he wants to check someone for ticks...Cute little ticks on the screen.

Chris Brown, Solange, and Akon..Best Rap Album..Should be..Kanye, but it is a strong category..Kanye won...Said they snuck in a few years ago..When working on an album..Said Hip hop is fresh and new..the music comes on and he told them to take it off..Once again he always says something to piss someone off.

Luda saying something about Cab Calloway being a Lifetime award...Now Luda introducing B B Winans and Aretha..Here we go...Really really good..The clark sisters and a bunch of other gospel singers that I am not sure who they are but it is a good performance...Grand finale..

Back from break..Somebody introducing Feist..I really am not sure who they are. I know the song they are singing..

Keelie Smith..and Kid rock...Singing Black Magic

CK On The Road Again

2008-01-14T17:52:00.000-05:00

My friend CK is running away from her job again. Willie Neslon must had her in mind when he wrote that song. This time she is searching for love and adventure in Costa Rica. En el camino otra vez.. She sent an email from the Central American Paradise...She caught a bus to La Fortuna...While on the bus, she made a line and beat an old woman and her grandson out of seat. However, the child took its revenge on her and began to projectile vomit on her and her bags. At first she thought the child may have yellow fever. But as you will see it was something much more base. She is heading to a volcano to meet a man named Joe...I will post more when she reports back in again.. Attached is her email. I had to translate it from an ancient Myan spanish dialect so I hope I got it right.

Holla Mi Amigo Seaner,
So my first mission was to get a bus to La Fortuna. I met up with the connection, and after confirming that I was the new mule, (a secret handshake and password) I
managed to get a seat on the bus by tripping this crippled woman with a stick. She had her grandson with her, but he was no match, even for me and my petite structure. A quick slap to the back of the head and gentle push on his back had him on the floor of the bus. People were shouting stuff in spanish, but I announced that I am an american and that I had the right to strike any child of another nation. I claimed diplomatic immunity. They mumbled but I just put my IPOD on and listened to the sounds of the Gypsy Kings. He stood the whole trip and started to turn green. He started throwing up and I thought OMG I am going to get his sick little third world country cold..But as I looked at the fluids on the floor, I saw three little condom balls and realized he was a fellow mule like me. I have always been a team player, so I scooped up the condoms and cradled him the the rest of the trip. As I left I kept his "package" and realized I got away with about 20k street value.

Well its off to the volcano to meet Joe. I met him online. He sounds really interesting. He actually once lived in a co-op in New York with his friend, but it was an all female building so him and his friend had to dress as woman to stay in the building. Oh the stories he has. I will touch base after my connect in San Jose..Dollar dollar bill ya'll.

ciao
CK

The actual email from CK

Mi primera misión era tan conseguir un autobús al La Fortuna. Me reuní la conexión, y después de confirmar que era la nueva mula, (un apretón de manos y una contraseña secretos) I
manejó conseguir un asiento en el autobús disparando a esta mujer lisiada con un palillo. Ella tenía su nieto con ella, pero él no era ninguÌn fósforo, incluso para mí y mi estructura menuda. Una palmada rápida a la parte posterior de la cabeza y trata empuje con suavidad en el suyo detrás lo tenía en el piso del autobús. La gente era materia de grito en español, pero anuncié que soy un americano y que tenía la derecha a la huelga cualquier niño de otra nación. Demandé inmunidad diplomática. Mascullaron pero acabo de poner mi IPOD y escuché los sonidos de los reyes gitanos. Él colocaba el viaje entero y comenzó a dar vuelta a verde. Él comenzó a lanzar para arriba y pensé que OMG yo van a conseguir su pequeño frío enfermo del país del tercer mundo. Pero como miraba los líquidos en el piso, vi que tres pocas bolas del condón y realizado él eran una mula compañera como mí. He sido siempre jugador de equipo, así que saqué los condones y lo acuné el resto del viaje. Mientras que me fui guardé su " package" y realizado conseguí lejos con alrededor valor de la calle 20k.

Manar su apagado al volcán para encontrar a Joe. Lo encontré en línea. Él suena realmente interesante. Él vivió realmente una vez en un tonel en Nueva York con su amigo, pero era todo el edificio femenino así que él y su amigo tuvieron que vestirse como mujer para permanecer en el edificio. Oh las historias que él tiene. Tocaré la base después de mi conecto en San Jose. El ya de la cuenta de dólar del dólar.

Well, I have not posted in a long time. I guess it is because I have felt so inspired, and then so uninspired at the same time. The two X themselves out and there we have the basis of apathy. I do know one thing. I will never ever order anything from Francesca's in Newark on McWhorter's street. Here are my reasons:

Had a sandwich once with a worm in it
Ordered a few pizzas for people coming over and there were chewed chicken bones on it
Many orders came cold and incorrect
If you order vinegar on the side, which comes with the sandwich they charge .75
Everytime you call to complain about the bad service or food, the manager says he cannot talk to you since he is so busy.

The last straw was a week ago. Ordered some food for people. One was a mushroom pie and when it got here it had about 8 mushrooms on it. The other pies were cold. I called to speak with the manager and of course the response was that he was too busy to speak with me..So I became quite angry...I demanded that he call me back and then things became quite heated. Suffice to say there was a lot of name calling and he refused to take back the order...I did what any civil man would do...I stopped payment on the credit card and will sign an affidavit about what a loser he is...Well, my goal is to put that loser out of business in 2008..That said..

The Giants Suck

American Idol Finale 2007

2007-05-22T20:01:00.000-04:00

Opens tonight with Randy dressed as Michael Jackson..Simon pointing at Paula's nose which is broken and caked with makeup..Ryan made a joke about the female dog being ok...He said the bitch was ok. They are going into a retrospective..showing how Blake and Jordin came from the same city of Seattle...

They are flipping a coin to see who goes first....Blake sings first..A song they have sung before, one they have not, and the idol song they will record...

Blake singing Shot through the heart...Doing his this....His voice is very weak...but it is original and in a stale Blake way...Doing all the beat spitting...Running around too much and he cannot keep up with the song..Cheese fries anyone.7..I just am tired of it..Randy said...10 for the beat boxing, singing was ok...Paula said something to show that she is strung out on pain killers... Simon said the singing was flat...

Jordin Sparx....Fighter by Christina...Once again I do not know the song which may hurt her... She is singing it well and you can clearly see that she is going to go on and produce a lot of number one hits..She is the Kelly Clarkson...The heir apparent. 10...I have heard of the song.. She looks good too..Randy said was not the greatest but your voice is stellar..Paula said the same thing...Simon said great you chose a younger song but weak in the middle. Calls round one to Blake...Paula said tie, and Randy said vocals to Jordin, and showmanship to Blake...

Blake singing She Will Be Loved..Good song for him...but he is a little flat and not strong...Just like I said before..Wearing his trade mark sweater.....Give it an 8....Some parts are in key but some are not..Randy said great song and nice vocal...Paula said you got into this...Simon said it was good and safe not as good as the first and it makes no impact...

Jordin...A Broken Wing...Voice very controlled..and she is getting towards the end and the big stanza and it sounds really good...Really good...10...Randy said you are the most talented and it was flawless and better than the original...Paula said you look great and sound great..Simon said Now that was good...

Blake...Singing the song written by two dudes called this is my now...Blake. I am just confused by this song...or at least the start...Ok the song is now going on and I am still very confused..The song sucks..maybe it is Blake...either the song is bad or Blake is flat...ouch....7....Randy said it was pretty good...Not great..Paula said it was a good job..Simon said it was odd..Not a bad song but not something great....

Jordin Sparx singing the same stupid song. If she makes this song interesting she should win..There was a commotion in the middle from the crowd..She is singing it really good but the song just sucks...it has no cadence and no flow....I think the writers were in love with the words and had no idea what the thing sounded like..Jordin should win the competition...Damn this song sux...9... Jordin crying at the end...Looked like a fake cry...cause she recovered fast..Randy....You were the best singer tonight...Paula said frickin...then said nothing..Simon said I was wrong about last week..and this is a singing show and you wiped the floor with Blake...I hope she wins at lest there will be some justice...There really is no competition and the title should go to her..

American Idol-Final Three

2007-05-15T19:55:00.000-04:00

Although there are reports that Blake has already been selected as the sacrificial lamb by Fox Execs tonight, he should be going home anyway. Last week Lakisha was a bit of a surprise for the few of us that hold out hopes that it will truly be about the singing one day.

A scruffy Seacrest takes the stage tonight.. The judges pick, Producers pick, and each singer picks a song.

Jordin Sparx..Wishing on a Star picked by Simon. Pitchy in the first line but she seems to be getting into it..This was a good pick for her voice...After the first line she hit it out of the park..10.. She could record that song..Randy said she is in it to wind it..Said it was a nice run at the end. Paula said Simon picked a nice song. Simon said it was brilliant when she sung it but he did not like the arrangement. Then she acted a little phony with Ryan at the end.

Blake is looking a little sweet..Paula picked Roxanne..A lot of echo and reverb on the mic to enhance his voice... Hard song to sing and when he gets to the chorus he could not hit the note and took a lower octave..After that he became pitchy...All in all not too bad..7..Randy said it was hot..Paula said you were fantastic...Simon said it was not earth shattering..Said it was good not great...The crowd boo'd like the always do Simon..

Melinda Doolittle...Picked by Randy...I believe in you and me... This could be a great song for her..Starting off slow and in key..Her voice is very very in control. The end will make her or break her..So far so good..I think she changed the song a bit and it is gonna cost her...never hit the big spot...I think she did great and I give her about a 10...Randy said it was hot..Paula said you were great, best performance..Simon said it was difficult to sing and her best performance in the last 4 weeks..

Simon asked Ryan if he was drunk..Ryan looks shaken by the comment.

Jordin Sparx She works hard for the money....Starting off strong...she is walking around a lot and she is doing a good job staying in key but it is not a great choice of song and I wonder why they chose.. She sung it well..Have to give her a 10..Randy said it was hot...Paula said it was fantastic..Simon said it was a good performance but once again the arrangement was not that great....

Blake Lewis..Maroon Five...This Love... Good choice for his voice..Singing it well but his voice does not compare and he is doing the beat boxing in the middle..He is done being original and now is just plain ass cheesy...At the end he is yelling a bit to be heard..8...Randy said it was a good vibe for him...Paula said it is a good nite for him..Simon said he sounded comfortable..

Melinda Doolittle...Nutbush City Limits...Not sure what song this is..What a choice..Singing it really good but the song sucks ass.. I do not think a lot of people know what this song is and that stinks...Wow she is really singing it hard and well...10..Randy said...once again another stellar performance...Paula said did you have fun..Simon said it was another brilliant performance....

Last three songs are by the crew themselves so it should be their favorite songs...

Jordin Sparx...Missed what song it was...She is very controlled and the song choice is good for her cause it allows the soft and the strong in her voice to be showcased...This song could end up being the song that takes her to the prize...10...Randy said great performance, best performance for her tonight..Paula said nothing....Simon said it was sung well but it was such an old song he did not like it..

Blake...Robin Thicke Get you Alone.. He should have done the better song...I am not loving the choice and he is I don't know what to say..7..Randy said it was ok, cool..Paula said it was three great performances..Simon said I actually really liked that..You take a risk and that is what he likes about him...

Melinda Doolittle...I'm a Woman..Odd choice for a song...There is a lot of talking in this song at the start..She is singing it well..Very well put together...the back girls came out and she sang with them.. A nice homage to where she came from...10..Randy said he is seeing the range of Melinda Doolittle..Paula said you are stepping out..Simon said..Love the strip tease..said if he has to give the award for the most consistent every week...It is her...

We should be down to the two ladies tomorrow night....

American Idol-Down to the Final Four

2007-05-08T19:51:00.000-04:00

As I predicted last week, the three girls and Blake are left. It should be fun...Now Melinda should win and probably Lakisha second but Jordin is my dark horse surprise..Blake should go after tonight, but he will treat us to one last original performance.

Show opens up with the final four on stage..Tonight we are treated to the sytlings of Barry Gibb..As the intro tells us he is the greats.

Melinda is First..Love you inside and out...She always picks hard songs..I like that about Melinda...Little behind at the start...Slow at first but when she hits the first stanza you can see that she could record this song...She has a nice way of using the back up singers to compliment her and he rolls were good...Have to say about a 9...Randy said..He was not jumping up and down..Paula said something really confusing but consistent..Simon said what Paula was trying to say was it was not incredible...I feel the judges were wrong in what they said

Blake..You should be dancing...Blake bullshitting at first about the legends...Flat from the start with the echo... vocals are bad...This is just strange..His voice is weak compared to the others..but he is an original freak...Strange is sounds like a child singing the vocals... 7....Randy said the beat boxing did not work tonight...Said it was corning like being at a strange disco in another country..Paula said the pitch was off..Not good..You are unique..Simon said unique but it was terrible..

Lakisha..Staying Alive...Hard song to sing..Making it a blues song...Not sure about this..She is not out of pitch but it has not boost to it...They said it was a slower version but I do not see that... 8..Not great... Randy said it was strange..said it did not work...Paula said something but Simon said they are heading for the exit..Simon said no kiss tonight baby...Back to the shouting..Performance was scary..Not great so far tonight..

Jordin Sparxx next singingToo Love Somebody...This is gonna be a good song for her..She will do this one well..Slow start and her pitch is good..Almost sounds country...Nice octave run..This is the best song of the night so far...10...Did not oversell the song and kept it simple..Randy said..the best so far and controlled..Paula said it is the best vocal so far.Simon said great choice, great singing you are back in the competition.

Melinda..Next singing How can you mend a broken heart.....She is singing it well, but the song is not her...middle is picking up..She is on tune and in the middle is really picking it up a notch...I actually like it by the end...10....It built...Randy said second song much better...You are a pro...Paula said no doubt..and something else..Simon...second half has put you into the semi finals.....

Blake..This is where I came in...Again an obscure song. This may be the death of Blake....In his sweater...No one knows what this song is and it has drained the audience of energy...It is not bad just a bad choice...This is gonna get a 7..No one will remember it...Randy said it is better than the last but just not feeling it..Paula said you are the contemporary rebel...Simon said I do not know what that song is and it is tuneless...Does not understand the song of choice.

Lakisha ...Run to Me..Nice song...Starting out acoustic...it changes the song and I am not sure if I like it...She sang it on key and at the end took it up a notch, so it was not bad...9..Randy said Much better that the first..said good luch..Paula said nothing...Simon said that her and Blake might leave tonight.

Into commercial at 852, Jordan could take the night tonight.. It all depends on the song choice and execution....

Jordin..Woman in Love..Good choice is she can pull it out...First note pitchy, but she is taking it slow again..She is singing it as good as Barbara S. She feels all the soul in the song...She gets a 10..Jordin wins the night... By song choice and singing.. Randy said it was pitchy..Don't see that...Paula said it was not something...Simon said it was old fashioned and pageantry...I do not agree with them..

Winners tonight were Jordin and Melinda...Going home is going to be Lakisha. Blake should but too many people like him..Like I said from the start..It should be the three ladies at the end..Lets see what happens tomorrow

American Idol Jon Bon Jovi Night

2007-05-01T20:00:00.000-04:00

Ryan taking the stage tonight with his George Michael scruff and thanking all the people for raising 70 million last week..Then right into the Bon Jovi tribute...That high hair spandex wearing Jersey boy...Which idol is going to sing a Jovi song...Jon is giving his take on what he thinks they should do...

First up......Phil Stacey..Blaze of Glory...Jon saying he sang it better than him in so many words...God I hate when they start out in the audience..Where is the crying girl when you need her..Too much running around but he sang it pretty good...Have to say this is one of his best performances...cut out the cheese dick walking and strutting around...give him a 8....Randy name dropped again but then said it was his best...Paula said this is a year out of your life...Simon said it was not authentic...and he is not a rock star...After the critique, Ryan said they are all on a different page...Bickering ensued.

Next up is Jordin Sparxx...Singing Living on a prayer....This is gonna be a hard song to sing...Looking all haughty with her teased hair...She is doing a bad rock impression at first..She should have done a slow version..Like Cornell did with Billie Jean..She is not standing out in her songs like she normally does..She looks hot. I am gonna give her a 8 because she brought it home at the end..I am confused... I think it was good...Randy said not your best, Paula said nothing as usual, Simon said the look was bad, and the singing was out of control..She did agree with them..She should be safe

Lakeisha...Never heard of this song....Her lower register sounds weak compared to her higher one...She is really singing it well...I have to say that since I do not know it she could actually record this song and make a hit with it....She did good this week 10....Standing Ovation..Randy said you are back, little rough at the start and blew it out the box...Paula said nothing...Simon said he could kiss her after that and they brought her down for a kiss, and said he did not know the song but she nailed it..

Blake You Give Love a Bad Name...He started out doing impressions, but this is what I was talking about with Jordin..This guy has to be the most original ever to hit the AI stage...wow, I like it..I give him a 10 for creativity and doing something fun. Randy said you are the most original version on AI..Please read above... Paula said something...Simon said half will hate and half will love it

Chris Richardson...Singing Cowboy...He does sing from his nose..Has not learned to let it come from his belly..Does not sound too bad right now..Walk these street verse went pitchy and shouty...Looks like he is taking a dump...Not bad though give him an 8.....Randy said you did your thing...Paula said you did your thing..Simon said you did do as much as you could with this song, but he is not sure if he will be here next week...

Melinda Doolittle..Have a nice day
Final four
Jordin, Melinda, Lakiesha, Blake

George Bush to thank america for chipping in to save other people so he could continue to bomb and kill children everywhere..How sweet is that.

Chris Richardson..bobs his head to too much like a bubble head. Singing an Eric Claption song..He always picks good songs but pitchy in some parts and you can see his voice is not that strong....Not doing too bad though. They are going to say he made it his own...8...Randy said You are in it to win it..Fly Jacket..Paula said that is was really exciting..Simon said it was a good vocal, said it was sexy..Said he did well

Melinda Doolittle... Faith Hill..Do not know the song..She looks good tonight..I get lost in her songs a lot fo the time...I do not know the song so I cannot compare it but she is beltin it out and it is very uplifting...She is one of the front runners in this competition...10....She gets a standing ovation...Randy said that she is dope and that she has arrived..Paula said it must feel good getting the support and good words..Simon said he loved it because it was not a copy cat song and it was a vocal master class...

Blake Lewis..Man with a first and last name...John Lennon Imagine..Nice song choice again...sitting in a chair bathed in light..Piano player sounds off..Not a bad choice for him..He is the most original. Easy song...Not a bad job...Give him an 8..Randy said it was alright, just ok...Paula said I was thinking that at the start but changed her mine and said it was a great performance...Simon said it did not go anywhere, but it was sincere so it was good..

Lakiesha I believe...This girl can sing, but not as good as Fantasia...Anyway I have to give it a 9..Randy said pitchy, but he liked it..Paula said she is a power house...Simon thanked Paula for being so brief...Simon said he is having an issue with the shouting again...Simon not impressed...

Phil Stacey...Garth Brooke..I am not familar with this song either...This is the first season where a lot of songs are not known..Singing it pretty good...Give him a 8..Not a bad job, just boring...Randy and Paula said it was good..Simon said you need to connect to the country in your voice

Jordin Sparxx...You will never walk alone...The mic is not on at first..She looks good and hits a soft octave run...but she is ready to let loose, and is singing an old song..She did such a fantastic job...10..Littly pitchy and screamy but fantastic...Randy said it was the best ever on AI..Not true..Paula said nothing..Simon said it was fantastic and said the song is 60 years old and she could have a hit with that.

Once again..the final three should be the ladies....Going home tonight Phil or Blake
