American Idol 2007

I totally agree with your assessment of Lakisha and Melinda's performances being boring. It isn't that they aren't good singers, they are, but ho-hum. Been there, seen that!

Well I look at it this way... Remember that one girl.. what was her name? It is eluding me for the moment. From last year I think... Oh for cryin out loud.. I have to go to that website now... brb

ok. Mandisa...

Remember her? she was an excellent singer but only had one style she could fit into.

[BJean 16]

Yep. We called her Man Diesel, just for fun.

I don't get all the retro stuff that Lakisha and Melinda do. I mean they sound good, but they need to get down! The closest thing to it last night was when the one gal did the No Doubt, Gwen Stefani song.

I liked that Gwen Stefani advised them to stop doing all those runs. To me, too much of that makes me think they can't hold a note for a decent amount of time without going off-key. I know it's really popular (especially with Idol viewers) but too much of that really turns me OFF!

My point was that I remembered her... But not her name, and I think that is how Melinda and Lakisha will turn out...

I think Melinda and Lakisha could (could) be great if they changed it up a little bit from week to week. Lakisha did move a little more last night, but not enough. She usually just stands and sings. Melinda is really good and she does move around. Like one of the judges said...she reads the lyrics and understands them and then sings them to us. I just want her to blow the top off next week. She really is my favorite as far as talent goes. Jordin was cute last night...but didnt' really show off her singing to me.

I like to see the ones who are improving week to week and showing that they really want to win and really do have talent.

Still couldn't look at Phil.....cap didn't cover bald head, big ears and eyes enough for me.

lol

Last night my wife commented on how much better he was than last time, and I mentioned to her that it is because he tucked his ears into his hat... they weren't as much of a distraction... she couldn't stop laughing after that... It is true. those ears are a distraction.

I agree that Lakisha and Melinda have great voices, but are boring. I get tired of all the slow ballads and prefer when they step things up a bit and rock-out.

I think Jordan is going to go far. I also really love Blake a lot! I think he has a unique voice and style and will hopefully make the finals. And, at the risk of being ridiculed, I am officially rooting for my local boy, PHIL!! Big eyes, ears and all, he is such a sweetheart and I thought he really stepped it up last night and sounded awesome.

As far an Sanjaya, no worries. My husband has announced that if he doesn't get voted off this week, he is personally making a trip to California and escorting him home. That kid seems sweet, although the hair last night scared the hell out of me, but he simply cannot sing. It is truly an injustice to those who do have talent.

Hell yeah Sanjaya won. You see they didn't even hype it up. They said he stays and that is that. Americon Idol is going to be forced to officially come out and say something about Howard. Both Simon and Seacrest basically came out and said it last night.

Keep Sanjaya on, He is my next American Idol

Get the phones ready. We can do it again next week. If anyone dosen't want to watch and just vote for him, go check out HowardStern.com and you can find the phone # posted.

DAMN BETH O is TALL !!!!!!!!!!

:faint:

This is really a weird seaon of AI...but I'm still addicted to it!!!

[DrewsLou 3]

I HATE AI this season. It's a freakin' joke that Sanjay is still on.

Sanjaya is soooo Gay. He's going to have a really hard time ahead of him if he wins. I feel so bad for the Gay performers like Clay Aiken and others who feel they have to hide their identities.

[teacher 1]

What makes you think they are gay?????

[teacher 1]

Don't tell me you can tell by looking!! And so what if they are??
