Last weeks results: I was 75% correct on the bottom 4.
theme: songs from the year they were born.
Phillip Phillips - Hard To Handle by The Black Crowes: Kidney stones?!?! I've heard those hurt like a bitch. This is soooo good. I just wish that he had taken the mic off the stand and interacted with the band. Not necessarily interacting with the sway bots, but more movement was needed. He is so cute.
Jessica Sanchez - Turn the Beat Around by Gloria Estefan: She's too prissy for this. She's trying too hard. It was annoying. VIBRATO OVERLOAD. I am not liking her at all this season.
Heejun Han - Right Here Waiting by Richard Marks: Make this stop. PLEASE MAKE IT STOP. Dare I say "She Bangs"? No, I didn't say that. That would be mean. Also... No bow ties. Ever.
Elise Testone - Let's Stay Together by Al Green: I did not like the beginning while she was sitting on the piano. Too fake. She is just not a smiley person. Nothing wrong with that. Forcing her to smile, cheeses it up too much. How often do you see Adele smile when she performs? (Not saying she's Adele, but it makes my point.)
Deandre Brackensick - Endless Love by (insert correct artist here) : This song came out in 1981. They are letting him get away with it because Luther and Mariah covered it in 94. That is... um... dumb. I actually didn't even pay attention to this performance. Boring.
The AT&T plug made me want to vomit.
Shannon Magrane - One Sweet Day by Mariah Carey & Boys II Men: Wish she had sung Don't Speak. Either song would be a train wreck, but at least that would have been an entertaining one. This was just boring. Also, she's tall.
Colton Dixon - Broken Heart by White Lion: First of all, its not his fault that the band doesn't know the song. That was not cool to discourage him with that fact. Kinda getting annoyed with the rock look. Looks sorta poser-ish. He looked much better in that twitpic with Daughtry, then he does on the show. The performance was alright.
Erika Van Pelt - Heaven by Bryan Adams: She looks just like her mother. I did not like this either. She over-sung it bad. I don't think I like her voice. Either that or she hasn't found her spot yet. Curious what my friend/Bryan Adams über fan thought of this.
It is cruel to have taped the talk with Jermaine, then show it on national television. Cruel. "You are so great, but get the hell out." Then they played his rehearsal?!?! This is the worst I've ever seen them handle a situation like this. Its not the first time they've kicked off someone, but the first time they've humiliated them like this.
Skylar Laine - Love Sneakin Up On You by Bonnie Raitt: It is a real shame she didn't sing Fantastic Voyage. That would have been AWESOME! This song seems safe for her, but at least she picked a good song for herself. She's a little firecracker.
Joshua Ledet - When a Man Loves a Woman by Michael Bolton: I was totally shocked when he was in the bottom last week. He was better last week then this, but this was great. He does take you to church. It seems like a totally different version of the song. He finally did that thing... "Make it your own."
Hollie Cavanagh - Power of Love by Celine Dion: ah. That's why she has that weird thing in her speaking voice. English. Makes sense. Its weird how they chopped the song up. She did not "make it her own." Scary last note. *big eyes*
bottom: Heejun, Deandre, Shannon.
