80's week.......worst decade of music ever...can't wait.
David Cook.....the songs still stand up? Since when? Nice haircut by the way.
Jena "I Love Rock and Roll"
-This is weird. This is one of the few songs from the 80's that is decent but she has even made it bad. I really like Jena but this is not good....at all. But she certainly made it her own. Fortunately for her I don't think anyone will want to steal it from her.
Would someone please shoot Harry Connick? I am sick of his poor attempts to be cute and witty. And for God's sakes get a freaking razor you bum.
Dexter "Keep Your Hands to Yourself"
-I have heard this done better at 4th of July festivals. Too much guitar and not enough singing for a singing competition. Very, very average. And Dexter, your hat is on backwards.
Alex and Sam "The Girl is Mine"
-Dog gone....this is a sappy song. I am being reminded why I hate 80's music.
Sam just thanked America.....buddy, they voted you OUT last week.
Malaya "Through the Fire"
-She looks good but this is another snoozer. Enunciate.....PLEASE!
Caleb and Jena "It's Only Love"
-Finally, a decent 80's song. This is as good or better than the original. Oh that Harry....he is a card. Please tell him it's not about him.
Jessica "Call Me"
-Jessica is one of my favorites. She has a great rock and roll voice. I hope she doesn't butcher this one. Awkward entrance. This is turning out better than we thought based on her rehearsal video. Best of the night.....by far. These judges are lost.
Sam "Time After Time"
-This is a pretty good song choice and it sounds like he is changing it up a bit. He has made this sound contemporary. I like it, it's not awesome but great by tonight's standards.
Malaya and CJ "I Knew You Were Waiting"
PLEASE shoot Harry Colonic Jr!!!!! Another boring 80's song. No comment.
Alex "Every Breath You Take"
-The National Anthem for stalkers. This kid is very good. I would pay to see him...my acid test for idols. And I loved him in "Little Nicky". This was the coolest of the night. I think he can give Caleb a real run for his money.
Jessica and Dexter "Islands in the Stream"
-Your hat is STILL on backwards Jethro. Jessica is pretty strong to carry this mouth-breather on her back. The duets have really lacked tonight outside of Caleb and Jena.
CJ "Free Fallin'"
-This has a chance to be good. We love CJ but he needs a good one. Cool arrangement. This is his best effort in awhile. I hope he is safe, he seems to be a genuinely nice kid.
Caleb "Faithfully"
-Here is the slow song they have been begging for. Caleb is a beast and I am sure this will be great. He is killing it....as usual. Best of the night by a mile.
My standings:
Caleb
Alex
Sam
Jessica
CJ
Jena
Malaya
Dexter
Of course, I could be wrong.
Peace
