American Idol

Well we are down to the last 12 guys and girls and tonight it is the guys chance to show the world how they can sing. We are know 10 minutes into the show and it has mostly been commericals.

First Up:
Rudy Cardenas...Singing Free Ride.. Seems comfortable but not a great voice.. Not strong Simon is going to say it is blah or kareoke... Shouting by the end... give him a 6..Dancing is horrible. Randy said it was corny....Paula said it was fantastic..Simon said he does not have a distinct voice and it was something not to remember.

Brandon Rogers.....Singing a Michael Jackson song..But singing it very Jazzy at first and then it picked up..He has a very smokey voice..Good control seemed a nervous in some parts..give him an 8...Randy said not your best, Paula said you were great..Simon said you are a good singer but it was a safe and predictable song..

Sundance Head.... Singing Knights in White Satin..Song to slit your wrists to. Starting off a littly pitchy...very pitchy....in some parts..He is very flat in parts of the songs and it does not resonate... 7...Randy said it was pitchy...Paula said you picked the wrong song...Simon said he was like a dad at a wedding. He said it was flat and he did not like him tonight...

Paul Kim.... Singing Careless Whispers...Wow this is bad..Lower register was bad..Higher was a little better..He is behind in the song and then he went to hit the high part and missed it..He is going home...5....Randy said pitchy and the falsetto did not work..Paula said he oversang it and pitchy...Simon said put your shoes on.. said it was ordinary..so far for me he was the worst of the night.

Chris Richardson.... Singing I dont wanna be..More up tempo than the other songs.. Little off at first and off at the first bridge and hook.. The energy is there but the singing is off..from time to time..Give him a 7...Randy said he feels like the show just started...was ok to him..Paula said did a great job..Made it seem like a new song.. Simon said his voice sounded very small and said it was a bad vocal.

Nick Pedro...Singing Richard Marx..Started off flat ...Seemed to calm down in the middle...flat on the second verse..A very safe song , hit the high part ok...It was a 6.5....Randy said are you nervous..It was pitchy, Paula said it fell flat..Simon said it was not that bad and said you will be back next week.....

Blake Lewis....Singing Keane Song..Nice choice...Started off off, but sounding better now...hit a spot in the middle that he either burped or sucked it in..Higher part towards the end threw him off..Just not a super strong.... 7.5..... Randy, Puala, and Simon all like the performance...

Sanjay...This guy looks like a girl....Wow they cut to his sister and she has a nice rack. Singing Stevie... Started off pitchy and such a boring song..got better but was not that good at the end...6..Randy said bad, Paula said it was ok, Simon said it was boring....

Chris..Singing Not sure what song it is..but so far he sounds the best of the night...Energy wise.. Gave him an 8.5....Randy like it...Paula said she liked it,Simon said your humor has you here..said it was a student gig..Not too happy with it.

Jarod Cotter....Singing R Kelly...or Brian McKnight....Sounds good....little pitchy at some points but over all pretty good 8.5....As good as Chris..Randy said it was ok.. Paula said it was ok..Simon said it was not that good...

AJ Tabalado.....Singing ??? Not bad..Energetic..Did a nice job....8.5...Randy said did not bring anything new...Paula said you can sing..Simon said it was good but theme park...Better than he first thought

Phil..Last singer for the night....Singing not sure what song it is..Soft, mumbles..These are the moments song. Not bad...8... Randy said it was rough at first brought it home at the end..Paula..said the same thing....Simon said it was bad at the start..Said it was ok at the end...

Overall I have to say this night was very disappointing.
