Last week was one of the worst American Idols, ever. I hope they do alot better this week. It seems though that this so-called greatest group of talent ever on American Idol likes to do great one week and then with complacency at their side do horrible the next week.

I think doing Beatles two weeks in a row was tough.
Those songs are difficult to do covers.
Hopefully they will do Motown stuff soon :-)

[kevkrom]

*Sigh* No quotes from me memorable enough to put on the ping? I’ll have to start getting my “clever” on.

[rock_lobsta]

#10 on the posts..... but #1 in your heart.....

[rock_lobsta]

Hopefully they will do Motown stuff soon :-)

I'm kinda hoping for Slipknot week.


HI SIMON! Where's our audition?

[envisio]

Hey, if you don’t use all those claws, may I have them? I have a killer lobster dip recipe.

[mommya]

I love Motown music. Did you hear that Mariah Carey will be a “mentor” in upcoming weeks? How in the heck are they going to do that? They always say to stay away from Mariah songs cuz she’s so good that no one can do them as well in comparison. I predict a disaster for that week.

One of my all time favorite shows was when these guys were on:

If you don’t have their CD, buy it!
also a great movie:

I could certainly go for a Goth week...

From MJ’s blog:

Songs from the Year You Were Born is the theme this week–the kids will be singing songs from their Birth Year. Looking at the list, it’s going to be 80’s week redux. What songs should the Idols choose this week? Check out the list and tell us what you think. (list thanks to cheese):

Brooke White (1983)
David Archuleta (1990)
Carly Smithson (1983)
David Cook (1982)
Ramiele Malubay (1987)
Chikezie (1985)
Syesha Mercado (1987)
Jason Castro (1987)
Kristy Lee Cook (1984)
Michael Johns (1978)

I agree. I actually did some laundry during the show last week.

[peggybac]

Gawd, I feel OLD.

[retrokitten]

David Archuleta (1990)

Oh great. Like I needed to feel old on top of everything else. :-(

Nice job on the picture.....I was so tired of Kelly!
