Carrie best was when she sang that Heart song, "Alone."
But I really liked her Benatar tonight.

I think the judges know she's getting a lot of votes so they are "harder" on her because if it.

BTW...if any of you want a good laugh, go rent the Journey in Concert and videos DVD with the 'mixed years.'

Randy Jackson was the bass player in the late 80's and he was about 50 - 100 pounds heavier. That's not the funny part.....you won't believe that he's wearing spandex!!
Ouch!!

One word: tongue.

Ugh! I think I'm going to be sick. BTW, do you thing the guy ever takes a bath and washes his hair? I wouldn't want to get too near him in case he's a little ripe.

AI people might try to push her into being a pop tart instead of the natural country star she could become

Ugh, I hope not. But to Simon's credit, I think he's looking forward to having a "Country" Idol this year--that is if (crossing my fingers) Carrie wins.

"Is it because she belongs to a Christian band?"

I hope not. But the clothes she wears certainly aren't very "christian" if you know what I mean.

She looks like the girl in the Old Navy commercials.

OMG, I didn't know that! LOL. I think they should roll that tape on AI next Tue.

Randy's probably purchased all the remaining DVDs just so no one sees it. I'll check Amazon and let you know if it's still available.

LOL--his hygene is very questionable. During the pre-song blurb tonight, I don't know if it was the lighting or what, but Lt. Dan looked extra greasy.

If genuine talent means anything, Carrie will win. She's the only person in the competition with any.

What a fun thread!

I think Nadia is toast, bye bye for her. AI just doesn't want back to back black female winners...she and Fantasia would be competing for the same market. Even tipsy Paula would only muster a back handed compliment for Nadia. "you look really good but..." is about as nasty as Paula gets, and Nadia got that from Paula tonight.

Simon seemed reconciled tonight, begrudgingly, that the little white Russian boy could sing after all.

I just don't get the appeal of Bo Bice, except he's got a great show biz name. I love the milk carton of Justin....and Constantine's well-practiced charm reminds me of him. Seems to me as if all 3 judges want to steer the voting toward Constantinee, like they want a guy to win, and he's it.

Anwar is spitting image of Cab Calloway, take a look

Anwar seems very nice, he can sing, but YIKES..Tonight Anwar not only sang another girlie song...he had cleavage!

Carrie should be a shoo in, she can sing like a bird, she's a natural, and I'm rooting for her.

I agree. But whatever happens, Carrie will have a singing career. If she's not the next AI though, then this show will lose a lot of (if not all) credibility.

I found the DVD on Amazon. It's called "Journey - Greatest Hits DVD 1978-1997 - Music Videos & Live Performances (2003) " They've got it for only $11.24!
Randy plays on the 1986 "Raised on Radio" tour footage.
Any Idol watcher should have it for a good weekend laugh!

I don't either, in fact he's more unpleasant to look at than Constantine, AFAIC.

As for his singing, I've heard better versions of 'Freebird' from bar bands.

" Seems to me as if all 3 judges want to steer the voting toward Constantinee, like they want a guy to win, and he's it. "

That reminds me of something I heard. (I forget where)
I heard that Bo will actually turn 29 before the competition ends and the judges didn't like knowing that they made a mistake because the applications only referred to "age" at the time of the auditions.
That's why they'd prefer to have Lt. Dan beat him and have become tougher on Bo and softer on Constant-pain.
They also think that once Bo is gone, the rocker vote will got to Lt. Dan (that's where I think they're wrong) and they'd prefer a "male" idol this year.
Just rumors, but they make sense after what we saw tonight.

Do you know if there is a West Coast AI thread?

I always thought Randy was one of the Jackson Five, but someone was telling me, not so, he's not one of the Michael Jackson clan. Can anybody clarify?
