Every single time they go on stage, they're marketing themselves to the audience. If any of them ever thinks that can "coast" or take a night off, they're sadly mistaken. It may not hurt them that week, but it will hurt them eventually.
That really isn't what I find ewwwwy about her:). For me it's more there is just nothing there. zilch, nada, in the personality department. But not because she isn't smart, more that she just doesn't care.....Rather plastic and robotic because of laziness.
Not sure this makes sense, and I could be way over analyzing...a fault of mine:)

Howdy, Pard! :) Fantastic review--
Taylor seems suddenly to have gone all the way over from spastic to static
Exactly. I didn't notice that until you mentioned it--you're absolutely right.
Bucky just looks horribly shy onstage, which makes the audience uneasy. If I close my eyes, he sounds pretty darned good sometimes, but watching him onstage is like watching a puppy be scolded. Painful.
LMAO!!!
I pick Chris, Kellie (AAARGH!) and McPhee as my top performers tonight
I pretty much agree. I might substitute Elliot for McPhee, but I have to admit (begrudgingly) that Kellie belongs in the top three--just for tonight though! :)
I have to disagree a little--I don't think Taylor was with that song at all.
And that's to be appreciated, certainly, but I have a hard time taking any men seriously when their faces have been carved into obscurity.
In other words, she's got it.
LOL, yeah but it can also work the other way, it makes their version soooooo much better:)

I still think Katherine being in the bottom 3 shook them all up last week. That was totally unexpected. They all played it safe this week. But when it gets down to this point playing it safe is a mistake, IMO.

Probably because women see right through her.
Georgia on my Mind is countryish. I'd say he just wasn't into THAT song. So, WHY did he sing it? He needs to just do his thing and let it take him where it goes. People that don't like his mannerisms aren't going to like him no matter what. Better to perform for his fan base than to sacrfice it all by trying to appease those that can't be pleased. jmo
LOL!!!
I think our McDonalds has that now. The McCommie kids meal comes with a toy hammer and sickle. ;-)
Yes he does need to appeal to his fan base. But now didn't Kenny tell him to sing it slow or something last night. I didn't think he gave Taylor the right advice.
We could give her the Naomi Campbell Award for the contestant most likely to bean her assistant in the head with a telephone (cell or land line, it doesn't matter). ;-)
I wasn't impressed with any of Kenny Rogers' advice.
You better believe it! LMAO!!
I can't even believe you said that. As I was reading lightman's post I was thinking, "It's almost like she's hiding", but I didn't think that would make any sense. You put it perfectly.
"Making Memories of Us" by Keith Urban
It's wasn't just songs of Kenny's, but there were some really odd choices. Country music is such a broad catagory and they picked, well, what they picked. There was an article a couple of weeks ago that the AI people sort of help them narrow down their selection. IMO, Taylor is listening to those people TOO MUCH. If you caught what Kenny said talking about Taylor he said something like Taylor wasn't really into the song. Well, then why sing it??? Pick something you like!!
I really hope that next week they go back to a very general catagory like songs from the year you were born, or the 80's.
80's would be fun. :) Of course I'm partial to the 80's.
I think they did 80's last season, too. Isn't that when we got Nadia and the giant mohawk that got her voted off the show?
