Stupid, right?
Makahala, Lindsey OK, but Jessica is a much better singer than Vonselle, Anthony, Nekko, Scott...WTF?
"I'll bet those little middle school girls in [Anwar's]school are just beside themselves!"
Ohmigosh, and he seems like such a nice guy! He must be the #1 popular teacher in that school. LOL, I was thinking this too, and I had a really nice, cute, music teacher in Jr. High too! He, however, was a classical pianist, which I'm kind of feeling he'd want me to mention right now, no American POP Idol he.
"As far as Scott goes,... I wonder if his creepy dad is going to show up?"
Can you fill me in on this guy's story, because as closely as I've watched this show I seem to have missed it. Others have alluded to it, but I've got NO clue. I don't want to pity the guy, you know, but I'm just curious and a wee bit confused.
I am still amazed that Constantine wasn't in the bottom 3. However I grudgingly have to admit he did better with his performance last night.
"A hideous group song with arm waving audience participation!"
You are well named ms. geiger, you've measured this with great accuracy!
This was my prediction from yesterday (post 29) Looks like I'm right on target so far!
"I wonder how these young kids can get up there and sing after being hit with this.
I don't think I could do it."
Yeah, they are amazing. Any of these 12, and maybe a few more levels back, could certainly have careers at this. "The show must go on".
"Top of the blokes for me...Anwar.
Top of the girls...Nadia (with Carrie Underwood a close second)"
Happy so good to see you here! Hubby definately agrees with you on Nadia. I am so conflicted, but I've liked Anwar from the start. According to hubby the bookies (touts to you that might be) have him as the fave.
And a happy St. Patrick's day to you, my namesake! We must always be proud to be Irish (-American in my sake!)
Please add me to your AI ping list.
Thanks.
"I'll be looking forward to next week's thread!"
Me too!
Why couldn't I get through?
I'm not surprised to see Lindsay voted off. Her lower-register voice was a novelty, but not enough to carry her to the end of the competition.
"I'm not surprised to see Lindsay voted off."
Me neither, to me she was very boring, just had nothing noteworthy about her. She never registered with me.
I guess I'm the only Mikalah fan on this thread but I was glad to see her dodge the bullet. For a while at least.
And Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too, darlin'. :-)
I think your hubby is right. Nadia -while not the strongest vocally- has that X factor, that the rest of the girls just don't have.
She's like an old soul, in a young body. She's great. I want to hear her do some really hot motown.
That said, if I could have gotten thru (I didn't, phone rang busy continuously), I would've voted for Nikko Smith. He gave it his all.
"He gave it his all."
He did, he really did. And it was fitting he did, having been brought back from the dead, as it were.
And I LOVE the Jackson Five, so his was great song selection and great performance, imho.
I was sort of thinking he'd have better chosen "One bad apple" or something more easily sung by one person.
More excitement next week. Can't hardly wait!
He did and I'm not fan either. He's a pretty boy who actually had a good night last night...no way he'd go tonight. Jessica shouldn't have been in the bottom 3. I think Constantine may hang himself soon.
We are the World...We are the Children...

So every time he lets out some of those big notes, it's impressive to me.
(My 17 year old daughter has become impressed with him for a completely different reason. It looks like the boy spends as much time working out as he does practicing his songs.)
I can't decide who I want to win, when it comes right down to it, but Anwar, Scott, Anthony and Carrie are right at the top of my list.
LOL. Why thank you very much.
I liked Mikalah in the beginning, in Hollywood. Found her cute..but as the weeks have gone on she has been a little on the annoying side. Plus she has a voice that she has to be very careful about her song selection with otherwise it sounds like screeching. She did very well a few weeks ago with the slow song but lately ... I think mostly she's too young.
