I think Carly tried to really push her voice on the song and she went from controlled to out of control screaming in parts. She has a good voice but she was not ready to go power rocker that was needed there. Plus she should have stuck with her first song choice. JC-Superstar was not a good choice for her. ALW should have known better than to stereotype. Looking like a rock-chick because of the arm does not necessarily mean she is a rock-chick.
I agree ~ wrong song for her.
I don’t think any Idol could have done it justice in that time frame, out of context.
ALW’s music is too rich for the AI stage. Was just replaying Cook’s Music of the Night and agree with Simon ~ he did well with what he was given (but didn’t , couldn’t, really do it justice, IMO)
I agree completely.
