Uh oh, Blake is going to techno-ize "Keep Me Hanging On"
Jedi Master Diana: "I look forward to what you're going to do with it." Don't butcher my song, beatbox boy.
Like Sligh, Blake succeeds at making a recognizable song unrecognizable.
Randy: "Good things about it. You don't have to worry about Blake-izing every song. Let the classics be the classics."
Paula: "You could have a hit with that."
Simon: "I didn't get that at all. If you heard that version on the radio, you wouldn't like it. You didn't sound as good as we've heard you previously."
Now there's a singer.
Judy Garland I believe (What'll I do)
The night that Fantasia was singing "SUmmertime" from Porgy and Bess was the night she sealed her future stardom on Broadway (in my estimation)
I couldn't stand fantasia and her brat playing on everyone's sympathy.
truly, RK, i just can't get into any of these folks....none of them ARE the AI.....maybe I'm cynical....I'm just going to see Travis Tritt on Saturday and listen to true talent....
LOL!
Maybe he could borrow some clip-ons from Songaya....
I can't even put my finger on it. Something about him is like Retrokitten Repellent.
He's not a horrible singer at all and will be on the show for a long time. But something about him makes me cringe. Maybe it's his faux 1985 Don Johnson stubble?
Ricky Schroeder! That's who he reminds me of. BOY IS FR SLOW!!! Discouraging.
You are correct...Judy Garland had a great set of pipes but unfortunatly she also had a well stocked liquir cabinet and medicine cabinet as well.......what a tragic loss to ahve her gone....and Liza following in her footsteps
I wonder if it was her choice to wear white or the stylists? At any rate, she seems comfortable with who she is. Weight didn't prevent Aretha Franklin, Wueen Latifa, Paati LaBelle and oh so many others from having very successful careers. Sometimes I think the stylists deliberately make bad choices. But, over the years we have seen worse! lol
This IDOL is so boring, I actually want sanjaya and hallie to stay on so I can laugh at them....
I knew you would like that one! LOL!
Yep, she earned every pound. Alot of singers gain weight,,look at the opera singers. And nobody cares. But starting out, it is hard on a show like this.
He doesn't bother me. I don't think he's very good, but likeable. And NOBODY on here sucks more than Sanjaya, but for some reason that Chris that is up soon annoys me greatly. It's like, just be yourself, this wannabe crap bothers me. Be white. Like yourself.
This is rich..Hitlery calls for Gonzales to resign...sorry for the interruption...http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1800401/posts
I agree, he is cute....and he may make it to the final four but I truly think simon, et al are pushing LeKesha and the other little girl with no neck (can't remember her name....Doolittle?)....
Judy Garland rules!
Even in a 30 second ad she sounds great...
Too bad the drugs and booze killed her.
