American Idol Top 8

its about to start, and for the first time in my blogging history im going to try to blog as the show goes on. but the advertisements never seem to end.

SO they decided to stand on the stairs in a row... probably in the order they are singing. i always have a feeling that they order they sing has something to do with the amount of votes. no proof though. lots of screaming fans. the theme is "song that the year the contestant is born".

after the normal introduction of judges, maybe not so normal, since we get to see the baby photos of the judges. phooey, this is tiring simon got made fun of again. and he looks like one of those crazy people who is about to shoot half the school. and a really hillarious photo of ryan.

and again, the contestants have to walk out through the door.

so DANNY GOKEY is going to start the night. He is going to sing "Stand By Me". please tell me that the song choice has nothing about his wife, "i wun be afraid of seeing your ghostly figures" lol that being said, i think its a quite nice twist to the song. he seems a lot better at working the crowd. OMG DID I JUST SEE KARA DANCING ALONG WITH PAULA??? hmmm, and i thought shes the sensible one here. randy disagrees with me about the arrangement. so did kara.
so at least simon and i see eye to eye. see christine, i told u im good at this lol. now quickly praise me

KRIS ALLEN wanted to be a taxi driver. singing "All She Wants To Do Is Dance". looks like i really have been underestimating this guy. he's actually quite versatile, a lot more compared to scott and danny. sigh, fine christine, u got good taste too but honestly, i don't think its a good song. since theres no moment for him. no exciting part, even though it was a good thing he picked a fast song. and haha, kara agreed. we ought to count the amount the time simon said INDULGENT throughout the show. almost every week it was mentioned. and i love myself now, all just because the judges seem to agree with me. MUAHAHAHAHAHA....

LIL ROUNDS coming up next. i want to see the name in light. and shes taking a huge song by Tina Turner "What's Love Got To Do With It". she looks a bit like Kelly Rowland the way she dresses. i am biased, i just love her voice. but i wished she's got a bigger sets of lungs. cause she can't seem to hold those big notes for long compared to Melinda Doolittle and Fantasia.
ouch, paula didn't like the performance. but i sadly have nothing to say to defend her. no goosebumps here. so, haihz... SHE'S STILL GOOD. i already know she's not going to win anywayz
hmmm, she looks so sad. hopefully someone else screws up. YEAH, U GO girl! speak it!!!

and another advert....

*ridsect goodnite tak diganggu nyamuk*
btw, anyone watched the newest episode of heroes yet? its really cool now don't u think? i think i haf ADD since i can't concentrate on just talking about one topic. but u can't really blame me rite? would u wan to read about BBC news advert? lol...

ANOOP DESAI was apologising about something he did last week. and his parents sound like authentic indian. He's singing "True Colours". good, get back to the ballads, thats where u do well. hmmm, a bit boring la. how la, hes not going to make it if nothing great happens in the next 30 seconds. hmmm.... a bit bland. how la, why are all my favourites not doing properly this week? ooo, nice note there. that's more like it. but so so nia la... not fantastical s i would like it to be. if people are great, he's still gonna be down there.
judges seem to like it. hes been liken to a yoyo. and simon encourages people to speak back to the judges. KUMBAYAH KUMBAYAH!!!! lol...

ANOTHER ADVERT???!!!! gees...

SCOTT Mc INTYRE wants to be a train engineer. he's singing "The Search Is Over". and he ditched his piano for a guitar. ooo, not just any guitar. an ELECTRIC guitar. a bit ironic that he could see forever. LOL.... sorry, i shall not make fun of him. i dun like the high notes, i think got two notes koyak. and i tink the guitar a bit more for show rather than playing. but i don't think i would like it as much. he and electric guitar just don't gel. IT supposedly is his punk side coming out. if that's the case, i hope his punk side gets buried soon.
judges didn't like it. almost on the verge of hating it. ok. maybe i am a bit harsh on him. maybe because hes only there because of his disability.

ALLISON IRAHETA coming up. her mum sounds like latina. is she??? she's singing "I Can't Make You Love Me". she does look like Kelly Clarkson. somehow not as lucky though. Kelly never landed in the bottom ever. shes got nice lower register. Don't discount her yet. i think she might spring a surprise. and there u go, the high note. a bit too short, no moment. nice song, but think she should have done something that could show off a bit more.
ooo, Paula has the same comment i have?! about the note that is. the judges think that she looks like kelly too. and of course, the judges agree with me that she could sing. looks like i am a bit harsh on her too...

I AM SICK OF HAVING ADVERTS AFTER EVERY TEN MINUTES!!!

MATT GIRAUD the soul guy... hopefully he gets the support of the SOUL PATROL!!! that is supporter of Taylor Hicks... but Hicky got so much more personality than matt.
he's singing a Stevie Wonder song, "Part Time Lover". and i love it the moment it started. so soulful. so groovy. Kara has officially been infected with the paulalikestodancea-virus. it makes people stand up and dance and totally ignores the audience behinds who wants to see more than their body twisting.
and paula tries to seduce simon again. lovely performance. nice save from last week i feel. perfect song. he gets a standing ovation from paula.
they should really hire me to be a judge

too bad theres another advert. they should have kept megan in the show. i would like to see what she would have done. read spastic dancing but with lovely jazz voice i think she would be more likable if she did not have the tattoo all over the arm. i think it really does turn people off, and it just doesn't go with any dress.

ADAM LAMBERT is next. he's blonde? why then he dye his hair black? who am i to complain? now that i have red hair i didn't get the title of the song. i can't believe i am saying this, i actually like his performance. nice lighting, set up. a bit ghostly, but terrific kind of way. this is wat i call a performance. i just abandoned all my favourites. lol... it was really really good. controlled.
let's see wat the judges say. and he managed to get a standing ovation from SIMON!!!! so... who do i think will be in the bottom 3?

bottom 3: lil, scott, allison
gone: PLEASE LET IT BE SCOTT!!!
