I’m here. Where did Ryan’s glasses gi?
Seacrest's glasses mysteriously disappeared when that Bobby dude disappeared from the show. Maybe they were sharing the same pair.
Back to birth year songs. Cade sings a Jewel song from 1996. "Who Will Save Your Soul".
He "makes it his own" by screaming through most of the song.
Lionel: Every time you step up the microphone you push the envelope. Struggled a little bit. Powerful rendition.
Katy: Interesting rendition. [in the nicest non-way of saying it, she wants him to not scream through his songs]
Luke: You have an iconic look. The front part of the song you weren't in your wheelhouse.
Vinyl for Lionel—LOL
That horse left the barn long ago.
Born in 2000, she sings a Britney Spears classic (wow) "Oops I Did It Again."
She makes it sound like some Nancy Sinatra song.
Katy: One of the most interesting versions of the song. Sounded like Amy Winehouse singing a Britney Spears song. Different and Unique.
Luke: I want you to believe you're a star more. Come out here and be that star.
Lionel: You are bringing a new style. Own it. What you did song and make it all yours? You own it.
Birth year song. "Amazed" by Lonestar. Now this is good!
Luke: Pretty gutsy to admit you're uncomfortable with something. So many things are coming at you. You've got this new found confidence.
Lionel: What's really throwing you is all these girls screaming at you. Don't let anyone talk you into doing something [you're not comfortable with].
Katy: To come out flopping like a zombie [gibberish. She either liked it, or didn't like it, but can't come right out and say it]
Seacrest brings out a script supervisor because that's her wedding song.
I'm shocked.
Shocked, I tell you, that Idol has a script. And that it needs to be supervised.
Prince song "Nothing Compares To U".
This song is much easier to take without a crazy bald Irish chick singing it.
Maddie sitting at the piano, sings this quite beautifully. Brings light to Sinead's dreariness.
She receives a deserved standing o.
Lionel: Another dimension of you. Loved your vocal performance.
Katy: [Liked it]
Luke: That was mesmerizing to me. I think of something Country to say to you, but I can't ... Shooo-eeee!
Another hour to go.
He sings Celine Dion's Titanic song. "Heart Goes On".
LOL, he waddles out to the microphone like a penguin, belts this out, then waddles away.
Katy: So hard to critique you. I think you are like a Jennifer Hudson. I think you could win an Oscar, an Emmy ... the sky's the limit.
Lionel: There is something we can't give you and that is stage presence. [which he has] Don't think about the competition. Just think about how good you are.
Luke: [Did he say anything? If he did, I missed it.]
Michael penguin-walks off stage.
A tour! Wow! Where do I go to not buy tickets?
Bobby Bones didn’t pick up on the subtle hint.
