more idol remarks


* R&B Night with Usher as mentor of the week *


1) Siobhan Magnus - "Through the Fire" - Unusually off key and nervous, but I still love this girl and her voice
2) Casey James - "Hold On, I'm Coming" - All around, a pretty good performance from Casey and his guitar
3) Big Mike - "Ready For Love" - I *loved* this performance. Genuine vocal and guitar talent, and so lovable
4) Didi Benami - "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted" - Her voice sounded very strange singing this song...
5) Tim Urban - "Sweet Love" - Another strange selection, but young girls can't get enough of this so-so singer
6) Andrew Garcia - "Forever" - Way to go Andrew! We finally see the talent and spark we saw way back when!
7) Katie Stevens "Chain of Fools" - Too big of a song but she did all right. I'm not sure she'll stay much longer
8) Lee Dewyze - "Treat Her Like a Lady" - Yeah Baby! Finally some good vibes with his awesome vocals!
9) Crystal Bowersox - "Midnight Train to Georgia" - Still prefer Crystal with her guitar but she did a brave switch to show the judges she was more versatile - and she still did Gladys' classic song proud. 
10) Aaron Kelly - "Ain't No Sunshine" - Almost but not quite. Little bro may not be around much longer either


Tim, Little Bro & Little Sis may be in trouble... or possibly Didi, since those first 3 have so many fans...
What do you guys think? I'd love to hear :)

  1. i look forward to your wrap-ups and think you summarize the performances really well. this season is weird, kind of eh.

    i love siobhan and they gave her like a B and she totally fell to pieces. i was surprised and worried that she was curled up in the corner totally despondent. can you imagine if they critiqued her like tim? whoa! i still like her the most, even if she wears the craziest outfits - those moon boots.

    i think the guys were better than the girls last night and crystal. oy! she looked so uncomfortable at the piano and in those clothes and with the clean hair. she should listen to simon and get back to who she was - authentic.

    katie is really pretty and has an amazing voice, but she really bugs me. i'm waiting for her head to pop right off with the way she moves it. i don't buy the 'i'm so bad stuff'. she's from connecticut! country singer, sorry katie!

    lee was great and looked much more relaxed. maybe he took siobhan's meds ;).

    i liked casey for he first time, andrew was good and aaron is a little country justin bieber in training.

    that's all, that's enough! tim should probably go, but we'll see tonight! he has a lot of fans, but it is getting 'utterly' ridiculous.

  2. Awesome wrap-up of your own Cindy - I loved reading it & I appreciate your input! It's late Wed. night but I still haven't watched my dvr'd recording of the elimination show..... I'm curious to see the results. I hope Didi didn't get booted. She has a lot of talent and a unique voice, she's just a bit lost right now and deserves to stay for a while. But....... I guess I'll soon find out because I'm going to watch right now! Thanks for contributing my friend!
