I doubt that most people on my flist even watch American Idol, but I have an overwhelming urge to criticize.
1. Jessica Sierra, "Shop Around" - Okay performance. She's not used to moving around such a big stage yet.
2. Anwar Robinson, "A House is Not a Home" - I do not like most Burt Bacharach/Hal David songs. This was no exception. Oh my poor Anwar, I was rooting for you, but you were boring too!
3. Mikalah Gordon, "Son of a Preacher Man" - Wow, I actually thought her performance was pretty good this week, the judges shouldn't have criticized her that much. Still hate her voice, though. And she was wearing way too much makeup and boobs for a seventeen-year-old.
4. Constantine Maroulis, "You've Made Me So Very Happy" - Blood, Sweat and Tears?!?! Do any of these contestants have any musical taste at all?!?! Constantine, you've already got the Jim Morrison hair, you should've put on some leather pants and sung "Touch Me" or something. I had to cover my ears at that high C you attempted at the end. Why do they keep calling you and Bo the "rockers" anyway? The closest you've sung to a rock song is The Police. At least Bo sung that Allman Brothers song a few weeks ago.
5. Lindsey Cardinale, "Knock on Wood" - This is 60s week, sweetie. Don't sing the version of this song that was made in the 70s. And you weren't very good anyway.
6. Anthony Federov, "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" - Same thing as Lindsey.
7. Nadia Turner, "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" - Should've sung that in a higher key. It wasn't one of her best performances (Last week was much better in comparison), and yes, it was one of the best performances of the night, but the judges were practically kissing her feet! It's like they've already picked their favorites and they're just going to say to those people that they liked or disliked them no matter how they do...sigh. That's probably it.
8. Bo Bice, "Spinning Wheel" - More Blood, Sweat and Tears?!?! Oh dear god, my ears hurt...Bo still did a good job though.
9. Vonzell Solomon, "Anyone Who Had a Heart" - Dammit, we're back to Burt Bacharach and Hal David. Okay. I usually hate this song with a passion. Vonzell made me love love it. And the judges called her mediocre. I told you they've already picked favorites.
10. Scott Savol, "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" - Okay, we know he's a very good singer, but he's not a very good performer. I think the judges just said he did well because they think moving off the stage equals talented.
11. Carrie Underwood, "When Will I Be Loved?" - Meh. Has this girl ever gone through an entire performance in tune?
12. Nikko Smith, "I Want You Back" - Hehehehehehe. Best song choice ever. I'm one of those people who thought Scott should have been voted off last week instead of him, so I'm glad to see him back. And he did very well, especially on such short notice. Well, except for not reaching that one note, but that doesn't matter much to me because the rest of it was good. And yet again, the judges hated it. Sigh.
