cutting into my IDOL time.
My QUICK (VERY) recap of QUEEN night on AI
Kellie:
Pleasantly surprised, but I expected a disaster. Liked the look, she must really walk that stomping way. Not Constantine. 'On paper? Must be the accent!' SHE IS SO SERIOUSLY INTELLIGENCE CHALLANGED!!!!
Elliott:
Hot and cold spots throughout the vocals. Cannot warm up to him (tho Taylor apparently has) and he just doesn't connect to audience when singing. Great as a DJ tho! Except never heard Barry Manilow, never heard STL. What did he play? Elliott was the one who suffered most last night at the hands of the band and the back up singers. I feared for all, he got the brunt!
Katharine:
Please! Obviously Queen wasn't on her rotation while learning at mom's new. Scant moments of 'goodness' Shouted most of it. Off key the rest! ZERO personality! NOT, Kelly Clarkson II! Hear she is QUEEN of mean too! Don't know why judges love her!?
Bucky:
Loved the hair! Seemed more relaxed when he interacts with audience. Good performance/song choice! What a nice guy! PLEASE let ACE be the one to go! I still enjoy Bucky's country rock - well, but for the stance!
Paris:
Kinda forgettable for me! Not bad, not great! Youth is what made her at least enjoyable.
Chris:
OH MY LORD - STILL NO SMILE - Isn't this the same song he has sung every week.
Most of the audience looked bored. Song sounded like a funeral dirge! Just needs one song for a DVD, play it over and over because he always sounds the SAME - bad! Seriously, he may be good, don't know the ROCK scene, but it is definitely ONE LOOK, ONE SOUND. Gotta say, when he discussed Live's version of 'Walk The Line' and Ryan said 'Aren't they (Live) your favorite band'? Answer: Paraphrased: That doesn't need to be known. Why is he bent on being so secretive? Not that I care, but his fans might. Fans? On dialidol, he is in the bottom three. Could they be as bored as I am? Or is this just Idol's way to get him more votes next week?
Ace:
So ready to GO HOME!!! Upstart arguing with Queen/writer of song! Wasn't once enough for you airhead? I seriously thought those droopy leather pants (never seen droopy leather before) were going to split in the 'important place' - not that I would bother to look. Can't sing rock! What am I saying..Can't sing period! Please let this be the night he lifts those wings (arms I mean) in flying position and soars off home!!!
TAYLOR:
GREAT SONG CHOICE! (glad he didn't take my advice - as I was against it. GREAT VOCAL! (Most young professionals can't dance - run - skip - hop - jump - etc and still sing strong - which is why they lip synch - well one reason anyway). But - TAYLOR CAN!!!!!! GREAT VOCAL while dancing like a whirling dervish. Queen said nice things about his voice!!!! WHY DOES SIMON KEEP CALLING HIM DRUNK!! ENOUGH - SIMON! Part of me wished he hadn't missed the MIC stand - part of me LOVED THAT HE DID! Dang, I love this guy!!!!! Little shy isn't he (back of the pack with Queen group)? Except on stage - another thing to love. He is so over Simon - ignore the junk talk and gave his own voting number! Dang, I love this guy!!!! - OH, I think I already said that!!!! Said what? "DANG, I LOVE THIS GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not a bad night overall for the idols considering the choices. Brought out a different side of some. Kellie looked her best/Katharine sounded her worst! Definitely a genre for Taylor! I am never ready for Taylor to go home!!!!!
Bye, Ace...
