Live-ish Idol Blogging

• pop culture

Here we are. The first performance night. Good news, guys night. Bad news, it’s 60’s night.

First up is David Hernandez. I felt it was a weird song choice. Randy said he could blow. (huh?). Paula said he was brilliant. Simon felt the beginning was terrific, but lost it in the middle. Said he should loosen up.

Chikezie was lounge-y, both sounding and looking! Randy said he was ‘pretty good’ but old fashioned. Paula: “you’ve come a long way”. Thought he looked great. Simon hated the whole performance. Said it was ‘so old fashioned’.

David Cook. OMG. Great song choice. He got the audience on their feet. I thought he rocked! Randy said he ‘made a rock joint’ out of Happy Together. Paula felt it was worthy - rocked it. Simon said it was good, but mentioned that he shouted in the middle. “Almost believable”.

Jason Yeager... Where was this guy during auditions? I thought he was alright. Kinda cute, but too smiley. Eh, I hate the song Moon River. Randy said ‘all you boys can blow’ (he is so dirteh tonight!) and told him to focus. Paula, well she did her first ballet recital to Moon River. Aw.. Simon said he was very ‘cruise ship’ and compared him to a dependable old dog. LOL. I love when simon agrees with me.

Robbie Carrico was next. He was doing his rock thing but I don’t feel it. Randy thought it was nice. He was moved. Paula said it was the perfect song - authentic. Simon said it was the only ‘current’ performance of the night, but questioned the authenticity.

David Archuleta. He is so adorable! Only 17! Aw! I thought that his vocals were strong, I like his voice. I totally missed whatever Randy said. Oops. Paula forgets how old he is, he seems so confidant. Simon thought he was the best of the night so far.

Danny Noriega did Elvis. Weird. He sounded okay, but it seemed weird to me. Randy thought it was okay, kinda hot. Paula said it was colorful. Simon topped it off with ‘verges on grotesque’ and said he destroyed an Elvis song. Paula then argued with him. Heh. Love Idol!

Luke Menard. Again. Did he audition? I don’t remember him. Anyhoo, nice looking guy. Nice. Ballad type voice, but it was a ballad. *yawn*. Randy - Yo yo, pitchy. “I know that’s a word Paula and I use a lot.” Paula said it was not the best song choice. Simon again agreed with me, I swear. This IS live-ish… Forgetable - you have to stand out!

Colton Berry does look kinda like Ellen. I like him. I liked the sounfd, good song. Randy thought he started rough, but all in all pretty good. Paula thought it was nice, not his best, but a ‘fun’ attempt. Simon thought it was okay, but just a kid singing an Elvis song quite well, a waste of time.

Okay, Garret Haley totally creeps me out. He sounded nasal-y to me. Randy felt he didn’t ‘do’ anything with it, had pitch problems, boring. Paula advised that he not be afraid to ‘change the song up’. Simon called him boring, whiney, and said he looked terrified. Oh, and that he should get outdoors. Huh.

Jason Castro was engaging. He has a nice voice, but I am getting tired. They are starting to sound alike. Gah. Good thing I am blogging this. Randy loved the vibe, pitch problem but a’ight. Paula said he blew her away, perfect song choice. Simon said he was in the top 2 of the night. “Like David, you’ve got it. Terrific.”

Michael Johns is my favorite. Hawt, hawt, hawt! Looks and sounds like a star. Randy “What a way to end a great night, I love you”. Paula thought it was a great, great ending. Simon said he is the most consistent contestant, natural charisma.

Okay. Now go vote yo.

Hi. I'm Daniel. This is my blog. I don't update like I used to, but my awesomeness requires an actual website.
