American Idol

“I shut my eyes and he did OK by Michael McDonald. BUT.... the moves are total spaz. TOTAL!

I'll predict the young boys will go, Covais and Makar. But... maybe Bucky as a longshot.”

“Taylor was the most entertaining performance tonight by far.”

“Bald Chris was HOT!!!! :P”

“I say it's Kinnik, Melissa, Kevin, and Will goin' home.

Taylor isn't going to win this, and I'm not sure he'll ever be a professional singer, but for some reason I really think somebody shut put together a sitcom for him.”

“Taylor isn't going to win this, and I'm not sure he'll ever be a professional singer

Well he has already made two CD's and makes a living touring the SE already...

I mentioned it eariler but my brother is a friend of his and they used to hang out when Taylor was at Auburn... the thing that doesn't quite come across in the competition is that it's a great musician too... Guitar... Harmonica... etc. He's good on stage in the 5-6 times I've seen him in Auburn.”

“A professional singer in the "American Idol" sense. I really think he needs a sitcom, I think he'd be great at that, it could be about a struggling musician in the South.”

Or a sitcom about a Southern musician trying to make it in a liberal career such as "Rock Star".”

“Bison dude...like you really crack me up man...I'm totally diggin what you're preachin'!!....i'm down with it man...I still can't believe a macho man like you is really into this whole scene man....rock on!

Kinnik, Melissa (what's up with those eyebrows anyway), Will and Kevin....OUT!

Taylor Hicks....I love the dude...but....an "American Idol"....aahhh...nah.....they're lookin' for something a little different than that dude....if a guy wins it this year...it'll be someone like Ace...a marketable product!

Kellie and Ayla are soooo hot!”

“Taylor Hicks ROCKS!!”

“ok now I know why I love him
he reminds me of Joe Cocker. He has that freaky dance thing going on LOL”

“Ace is not so hot with that stupid hat, but he can sure sing and he has a cute butt. I really like Taylor. He is who he is. Brady Boy needs to go.”

“Ace IS cute, with hat or not! LOL I still don't think he can sing as good as Chris Dauthrey or whatever his name is. He just rocks.

Yeah, the hicks guy is okay I guess. I honestly didn't think he sang that song too well, but I must be the only one thinking that.

Tried too much to sound like the mcdonald guy in my opinion. I always thought you shouldn't try to copy anyone.”

“I never did like Joe Cocker's stage performance. So... no surprise I think Taylor moves like the horrible dancing Elaine from Seinfeld. ;-P And "performance" is a big part of it.

I really like Chris. It will get interesting once they start doing all styles of music. Will the rocker handle other styles?? I do think he's ready for a record contract right now.”

“Ok, we should all have a formal vote before the shows where people get tossed. So the categories are -

Who's gone -

Melissa, Kinnik, Kevin, and Will

Worst Performance for the week -

Will

Best Performance for the Week -

Mandisa

As of now, who's going to win -

Chris”

“Well dang it man.....all formal and stuff...awesome!!

Outta here tonight....

Will Makar
Kinnik Sky
Kevin Covais
Melissa McGhee

Worst wreck of a gig....

oy vey....Kinnik Sky....

Best performance....

Kellie or Ayla

Prediction to win it all?...hmmmm...tough one man....

Kellie Pickler”

“I hope Chris doesn't win. There are too many artist's already with his type of voice.”

“I pretty much agree about who's not going to make it past tonight. Kevin, Will, Kinnik and Melissa

I think people vote for Taylor just because he's so much fun. You'd like to have this guy go on and have fun till the end, but in the end, you'll find better singers. He does bring something really good to this show this season.."Whooooo!"

I hope Chris get's with it and sings songs a little closer to home with the public at large. People generally like to hear recognizable songs. He's great at what he does, and I think he's smart enough to rock some more tunes in touch with the average American family sitting around watching.

The pickle-chick will stay too, for the same reason as Hicks, America is letting her live a little bit of the dream, before really casting the vote that counts. For me...the whole "but she's so damned cute" thing is wearing thin, and the whole "cal-mary" and "sal-mon" thing is starting to look like an act.

Tonight should be interesting.”

“I hope that dude that wore the cap goes tonight.”

“Sooo.... I was doing an interview. Who got booted??”

“The boot went to.........

Kinnik
Ayla
Will
Gideon”

“Ayla... Surprising.

Gedeon... SHOCKING!

I can't believe that, he wasn't the best, but he was very, very good.”

“I am so glad smiley is gone. Dude was annoying.”

“HOLLY CRAP!!! I actually wasn't surprised about the women, but Gedeon?? WTF???
I thought he was one of the better ones.”

“Ged was never going to make it.”

“Well, I hope there's still time for poor Ayla to get back on that girls' BB team and help them in the end-of-season playoffs.

I thought Gedeon was good. That smile must have proved too much.

And... thinking of Mandisa... Love her, but she can't be dressing like she dressed this week. She looks pretty decent in the long, flowing tops and wide leg pants. NOT in tight blue jeans with a shorter top!!! NO NO NO NO!!!”

“do you guys look up their names every time you post...or do you just have a much better memory then me? Damn...I don't remember but a few of them.”

“Gem....we're "real" fans....and besides we have no life...

But i'm really bummin'...I miss ya Ayla.....”

“Saw this season's show for the first time tonight.

I liked the bald headed guy best.”

“Wow! Tonight sucked big time.

Just about ruined Higher Ground forever - couldn't hit the notes even close.

Send the first half home now.”

“Best Performance -

Chris (Was Sarge smokin' crack while he was listening?)

Worst Performance -

Kevin (just absolutely awful)

Who's going home -

Melissa

As of now who will win -

Chris”

“Bison - Chris is my pick to win the competition, but last night he sucked. I believe people were thrown off with the theatrics and the music. I have an ear for music, and his voice was absolutely horrible and barely hit a single note. If anybody can find a video of last night, post it here - or better yet, just the audio. My guess is the music was too loud and he couldn't hear his own voice.

No crack last night. Only on Fridays.

“I sort of have to agree with Sarge on that. I want Chris to win this competiton, but last night it was the band that made him look good.

I actually thought bucky did pretty good last night. [and i don't like country]”

“The only one I didn't like was Kevin. I think he is a goner before the girl who forgot the lyrics...can't remember her name. LOL!”

“Kevin = Chicken Little look alike????”

“yes”

“Am I the only one who thinks this wiener reminds me of the nerdy chicken from the old Foghorn Leghorn’s cartoons?



”

“wolfeyes - you thought pickler did a good job??”

“"I say, I say, Boy...no, I say No, You're not."”

““Kevin = Chicken Little look alike????”

So it's not just me!! I call him Opie Cunningham.”

“LOl.....but I think he is a good singer...not the Idol type.....and too young!!!”

“No, Sarge. I said the only one I didn't like was Kevin. Meaning, when one goes tonight, it should be him. The rest still have potential...some more than others, but still, more potential than Kevin.”

“agreed - Pickler sucked (as did many), but at least has some potential. Actually, she's never sung well, but she's so cute, I just want to watch her talk.”

“I thought for sure Simon was going to go down on the bald guy. I don't think he can do any wrong. The bald guy, not Simon.”

“I never knew they picked artists and made everyone sing their songs.....is this new????”

“No they did it last time. I can't wait to see bald guy singing Barry Manilow. LOL!”

“I am listening to all of them and thinking, "Would I buy their album?" And, with Chris, even though he is very good, his voice is just too common right now. I would buy Katharine McPhee's album and Taylor Hicks, at this point. Possibly Mandisa just because that Bytch can sing!!!!”

“I thought for sure Simon was going to go down on the bald guy.

I think you're thinking of Ryan Seacrest. ; )”

“Now Kevin would do well with a Barry song. I personally want to hear them do Fleetwood Mac songs.”

“hmmmm.... I don't know what's going on with peoples opinions of Chris' performance so I listened to it again (We have it TIVO'd of course) and the vocal was pretty much flawless. Maybe people have stereo settings that made it sound differenct? who knows.”
