I think that T & E are in for a rough time. The schedule they are keeping from pulling in late last night, tons of appearances through today and leaving early tomorrow to get back home in time to go to work Saturday afternoon to learn 2 songs plus work on the one they know is a bitch.

Meanwhile Kat just takes the freeway home....

such is life.

Good points. I would think that this is harder on Elliott though, than Taylor, since Taylor has been performing for quite some time. However, there is a lot to be said for spirit, and Elliott must be riding a high right now. Plus, I think someone upstairs is watching over him. :-)

People were just talking about how happy they are and how great he makes them feel. Very, very positive scene to be around.

How fun!!!

I'd love to be in that crowd~ everyone there for the sole purpose of supporting the best of the best.

Over on MJ's blog, it says that he's going to perform the song chosen for him by the judges at 4:45 pm CMT so it should be confirmed or dismissed by then.

What's your take on Elliott doing What you won't do for love?

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it seems to fit his style, but I worry it may be a boring song unless E throws some serious personality into it.

The sentence was a bit run on. The point I was making is that the two of them are up against it with the schedule that thet are having to keep.

It is what it is and I bet both will get a huge emotional bounce from this.

Thought the was interesting in the way mj decided to word this:

3:30-4pm Pacific time - Katharine McPhee will visit her alma mater Norte Dame High School for a private visit. It is a closed event. Fans can gather outside on the sidewalk. When she leaves the campus around 3:30 to 4 pm, her car will circle the block so that fans can wave, shout, applaud, etc. The producers are hoping fans will show up--her exit will be filmed.

The President says he always feels the prayers of support.

As sensitive as Elliott seems to be, I know he must feel the love, too, and that will sustain him.
Hopefully, he's getting the full royal treatment, even from those who are just trying to protect their *investment.*

Did it say if she was going to be borrowing the pope mobile for this?

Here's the song. I can't get the music for it. Hey, people can gripe about it being boring but it's not like he has a choice in the matter. Plus, the guy sings love songs. For every person out there who complains he sings boring songs, the same amount will claim that they are turned off by Chris' style of screaming, angry music.

To each their own.

(Disclaimer: E is not my genre of music although he has certainly opened my eyes to old school stuff)

Lyrics

I guess you wonder where I've been
I searched to find the love within
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you
And I can't let go

My friends wonder what is wrong with me
Well I'm in a daze from your love you see
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you
And I can't let go

Some people go around the world for love
And they may never find what they dream of
What you won't do, do for love
You tried everything
But you don't give up
In my world only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do

My friends wonder what is wrong with me
Well I'm in a daze from your love you see
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you
And I can't let go

And though I only want the best it's true
I can't believe the things I do for you

What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything
But you won't give up
In my world only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do

That could be! Did they say if her fans will be able to interact with her at some point? Or do they just get to look from afar?

Great report. Sounds like Elliott and his family are having a ball. His mom will be having a great Mother's Day.
