Yep... but he says we can set back and be entertained tonight :)

Hiya Jonny - love the then and now. So true.

[silent_jonny]

Hello, Twin! :)

Yeah, I know. I just want somebody to leave this week--except Kree.

[Jrabbit]

What is considered a “standard” in music talk?

[MagUSNRET]

Yes, but Im intrigued by him saying we will see a “different side” of them tonight...I guess that means Candace wont use her Revival meeting yelp, and Amber wont try to out do Whitney Houston.....Angie will do her best to hide some of her teeth while making love to the camera and showing off her legs (as a diversion)...and Kree............dang.......I keep hoping Kree will do Patsy Cline........but maybe tonight she will do some Grace Slick? Hmmmmmmmmmmm this might actually be a decent show, until the HO and the Boob holder start yapping.... ;-)

[silent_jonny]

Hiya!

[kjam22]

I think he means “big band” tunes. “Like Fly Me To The Moon”... or something

[silent_jonny]

Hi, Peggy! :)

[Jrabbit]

Yikes! Yuck....

[MagUSNRET]

I think Harry was being honest when he said he didnt care for her...she didnt connect........that is the feeling I get too....she just does not connect...something about her is just........not sincere? maybe? I dunno.....perhaps Im just blinded by her Ipana teeth

[Shelayne]

Good evening, Jonny! Peeps!

Your ping pretty much sums up this season of judges.

UGH.

[kjam22]

Glad Angie didn’t let you down.... :)

[MagUSNRET]

Perhaps she is the butch side of a lesbian couple....hell, it is getting to the piont where the only straight people left are the Snarkers!

[twin2]

I agree with you Mags...

also, all of Angie's songs are starting to sound the same to me

[twin2]

I just had to use my mute button for the first time tonight...ladies just stop it!

Angie Miller

This week's theme: Standards--Then & Now (2013)

This week's mentor is Harry Connick Jr.

Two songs each again. First batch will be the "now" songs, music from 2013.

Angie's first with Rhianna's "Diamonds". Back on the Steinway again (black). First time hearing this song. She does a good job with it. Songs are full-length this week, it seems ... or maybe it just feels like it because this song is boring.

Keith: I didn't feel that was the song to change the arrangment to. I could see you melodically wanting to go places. You just want to soar. You should just let your spirit soar with the melody.

Minaj: (wearing a different wig--also black) This seems different than any of your other piano performances. Making more eye-contact with the audience. Bland. Lackluster.

Randy: Interesting choice. Great song. It's not a song that supports changing the arrangement. No where to go. Once you hit the chorus, that was it. I didn't love it.

Mariah: (also complains about the arrangement change) A bit of a sense that you were playing to the camera. You did a great job.

[MagUSNRET]

I have a hunch Angie may be packing her toothbrush and power sander tonight, if she doesnt kick it up a notch!

[silent_jonny]

I guess that means Candace wont use her Revival meeting yelp

We can hope :)

[silent_jonny]

“Yeah, go ahead and forget the words. It’s fine.”
