American Idol

[jmdt]

I agree, she just blathers on...blah, blah, blah. Just yesterday she did an interview on a radio station. She couldn't even speak straight. She was slurring all over the place. Just don't like her. Could she wear a lower cut shirt. PALEASE!! I love Danny's raspy voice, but last night was definatly not his night. Adam seems to do well with any genre. I like him. I think those stripped pants were because he was singing a Foghat song. I love that he could just be himself. He seems so confident and very comfortable up there. He will be a great artist. He's different, that's what we need. I still just don't like Allison. She has a great voice but I personally think she is too young for all of this. She will be great one day. I just don't think she's ready. Can't wait for tonight.

I personally want to rave about Kara. The way she was dressed last night and the way she drooled over Adam after he sang was just disgusting. She is soooooo not an unbiased judge. I think she has a crush on him or something. While Allison was singing she sat there stone-faced and I don't think the camera even wanted to film her when Kris and Danny were singing. I'm really fed up with her and Paula both!

DH and I both hated Adam's version of a perfectly good Zeplin song. We both think he ruined it. (The judges disagree.) Allison's song was really very good - she could sing any Joplin song she chooses and sound great. (The judges disagree) Kris did a wonderful job on the Beatle song. (The judges disagree.) And given Danny's vocal range the only thing he did wrong was the scream. At this point he should stop trying to stretch and just sing what he knows the voting public will like. What the judges say doesn't matter anymore! (The judges kinda disagree.) I didn't care for either duet but I'm a harmony freak so Kris and Danny got my vote for the one I like best. (The judges disagree.)

Soooo, I guess I have to face facts and admit that the judges are a bunch of tone deaf rocker wannabe's. LOL

P.S. I think tonight's results are going to surprise all of us. I think Allison or Adam might be going home. We'll see.

I think they have to keep Adam or there will be a riot! Allison is ok, Danny is good but was NOT in his element last night at all, and Kris is talented also. While who gets sent home could surprise us I doubt it will be Adam. When you have people who are voting for him 50+ times in a night he's pretty much a driving force for ratings. I know he's talented but I wish he'd do something other than rock to show he's got variation in song choice.

Lou, from your mouth to caller's ears!

I have had it with both of them and their screeching.
I am praying for Danny and Kris to be left in the finals tonight.
The judges set up the callers with their comments, such as
"Allison, that duet proformance may have saved you with America!"
I hope America didn't listen. Simon does it everytime when he wants
someone to stay. I think what he said to Kris last night was uncalled
for. Danny was better than you I wanted to reach threw the TV
screen and choke him. No body asked who was better it was
which duet was better.
Personally I'm getting fed up with all of them:

Paula is a flirt and on something most of the time
Simon is just plain into himself and arrogant
Kara is also a flirt and think she's better than most of us
Randy is ok
Adam is just weird
Allison sounds like a fog horn
Danny is awsome
Kris is sweet and very talented

Gee I feel better now,

[crystalsmom]

Lou and Carol, you are both so funny and sometimes it does feel good to let it out. There is one thing that no one mentioned that really got to me last night that I have to let out so I can feel better. Am I the only one that saw how Danny hogged the spotlight in their duet? While they were singing, I thought "Danny how nice of you to let Kris have a few words to sing" I know you two love him and I didn't want to say this because of this but I just had to let out. Now I too, feel better

We're not all going to be happy when this is over and I think why some are feel badly in some way is that they all really are great in their own way but they all can't win.

Glad your feeling better now to Joan.

I did think Danny had more to sing than Kris but didn't think
too much of it. Now I'm mad LOL
I think Kris is just plain sweet and takes alot of nonsence that
he dosent' deserve. America, hopefully see's this as well.
I think Danny is sweet also and hope nothing was done intentially
towards Kris. Oh well, I trust American to get it right. (I think)
Let you know tomorrow

I personally don't like Adam's type - the liner and punk hair, etc. - but I do think he's very talented. He has the moves and the voice. I haven't liked every song he's done but he is good. Allison - not sure about her. I like most of her stuff but she does have a very distinct voice. I think Kris (is that how you spell it??) is good and such a doll-baby (does he remind anyone else of Chad Lowe??) but Danny.... I must really be in the minority here but at first I thought his voice was unique and thought I could get used to it but I'm just not getting it. I think that it's either Kris or Allison that the judges are wanting to pick on to get them out this week so they are doing their usual thing by saying they did poorly in their performances but how in the world could Simon say that Danny was better than Kris on that duet??? That just floored me.

I personally want Danny to go home tonight but I really can't even begin to imagine which way it goes.

[Lou]

Angie!
I may never speak to you again! LOL

Joan,
I didn't think Danny hogged the mike at all last night even if he had it more than Kris. They chose the song together and worked on the duet themselves so Kris had to have agreed to the arrangement.


Now someone please tell me in great detail WHY Adam is considered to be so great. I just don't get it. He is a Johnny One Note.

And I just love husky singing voices so of course I like Allison.

[Lou]

Speaking of husky voices

Does anyone watch Hannah Montana? I have to admit that I DVR it and then watch several episodes when there isn't anythig else on TV. I saw a show last night where David A called her to do a duet with him and it was sooooooooo pretty.

Kris is too sweet and too much of a "nice guy" (i.e., pushover) to really "mind" or even push for something if he even noticed he was being taken advantage of. Danny has the stronger personality, and for those who don't see his arrogance, well, he's part way good at masking it to some then. But honestly, I think Danny can easily "work" Kris. So it's not a matter of agreeing or not to an arrangement, it's more of a desire to keep peace. That's how I see it anyway.

I think with Adam, it's all about his confidence. He is very polished and comfortable on the stage. That makes a big difference. Where some of the contestants "grow" during the competition, he was already there and impressed the judges right off the bat.

I personally am not lovin' any of them - I'll go for anyone winning (except Danny) at this point.

[TatumsMom]

Oh, and can someone tell me why Danny has to take 3 breaths during a sentence when he's singing. That was very distracting for me last night. It just wasn't smooth.

[shirlblack]

All of you guys are cracking me up. Lou and Carol.. I had a good laugh out of both your posts and I have to agree with most everything you said. My favs are still Kris and Danny but hey... I'm as old as dirt so what do you expect? Joan, I agree with you about Danny's duet with Kris, he did hog the camera and it was Kris that was singing harmony so I wonder why they kept the camera on Danny? I agee with the above poster... I personally think the judges are picking on Kris and Allison. Kris because he is so humble and Allison because of her age.

56!!!
I voted for him 5 times. I don't think any of the others can compare to Adam. I love rock and I think he was GREAT!!

Ok, I got that off my chest. Seriously, it IS a singing competition and he's the only one there that can REALLY REALLY sing. Kris is adorable, but I don't like his voice. I wouldn't buy his CD. I hope he is the one to go home tonight (my apologies to those of you who like him )

I think Allison was pretty good, but not nearly as good as Adam. Danny is ok, but nothing thrilling IMHO.

I will CRY if Adam goes home tonight. I LOVE HIM!!! And he seems like a very, very nice guy doesn't he?

[bjh]

Personally I just don't pay much attention to the judges. Sometimes I agree with them and sometimes I don't. I agree with Simon more often that I do the others. Sometimes I will just fast forward through all the gushy comments from Kara and Paula. Sorry to all the Kris fans, but he still does nothing for me. I can't see him making it to the final two but I might be surprised.

All you Adam tongue lovers and haters.....did you see him stick out his tongue to some of his fans last night after his performance? I couldn't help but laugh and think about some of you when I saw that.
