OK another safe bet to leave...she was pitchy all over the place..just a competent singer nothing more. brutal but true...

Yup she is my favorite right now...she reminds me of Quiana...GOOO Melinda.

Haley has a good voice...just not a good song choice... and Melinda is starting really good...old school too. the tone of her voic eis really great. yup they are looking for another jennifer. good stage presence too... wow the girls are really whipping the guys butt...too bad that six will be eliminated to bring in the guys...

Ok I think she is my favorite...I just like her vibe... she does have tons of natural talent...

oh yeah you can tell how nervous she was. I think they gave her good advice. she needs to sing cute light songs that she can have fun with. I doubt she goes this week though. I think Amy ANd leskie are bigger Cannon fodders.

OK...this girl is giving stephanie some competition. her moves and stage presence is a bit cheesy.... but man she really gave it her all...good one.

hee...Simon is saying it for me...there really were some awkward movements. I guess she has a good tone, but I would say she did a competent job but no wow....

this girl has too much extra distracting movements...voice is good so far...good tone.

hee starting...I was ready to throw a shoe at him last night...It started alst season with me...he is just so full of himself nowadays.

Well I gotta say ITA to Simon...she is canon fodder for sure.

Well she started ok...but then had incredible pitchy mometns... In AI though this is more Klos's song. Well she had lots of nerves.

stephanie...sounds really good but a very obscure song...for me anyway...hee. Ah they are looking for a jennifer clone.... Good start with the women...

(((muski))) play...if you enjoy just hanging with other fans and the excitement of the whole show I would go. But it that is not your thing...I'd stay home. Hee I was so adminy I even threw myself a...ummm..hmm...do we throw a stiletto???whats the consensus on that??? heeee off to see if the chosen one is a woman...cos I sure hope it wasn't one of those guys... EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 13 more hours to Clay hour on M&J....EEEEEEEEEEEEE so I wonder if we get some clay sightins in some karaoke...hee

as far as i know only clay sang that before. wow the review of the mens stuff were really bad...it seems they got really bad clips..

Chris S...another funny fellow that looks unconventional with a good voice. I always liked him but last night his trying to be funny hit a sour note with me. I wonder how people will take it. For those that didn;t watch...Chris sang an upbeat fun song that was probably one of the best last night (which is really faint praise at this point) Randy and Paula liked it...and Simon started out saying that he likes Chris and likes his voice but the performance was more like a highschool perofrmance...then stupid Ryan interrupts him from the sidelines...and starts challenging Simon. Simon and him had a very uncomrfotable really serious exchange. Then when Chris said something he said ...well maybe because I was not auditionig for il divo or teletubbies...the reaction from Simon was not amused...he looked at Chris and said..you would fit with the latter, and Chris reaction was very tense too. Then Simon looked at Ryan and said...you just made that very uncomfortable...with this really angry look on his face. The drama was great TV IMO but I think it will probably cost Chris votes. I think he will get the guarini effect rather than the klocke...cos with Kim her comeback was justified one and Simon really enjoyed it. It was in good fun really. With Chris, instead of being humbel and just listening to Simons; comments, cos he was trying to explain what he meant...he simply insulted the guy...and it backfired on him cos Simon's comeback was more hurtful IMO. That whole exchange, once again reminded me of Clay. He kept his mouth shut when he has too...gave Simon a few really good zingers too and never looked arrogant. I like Chris S and I hope he survives. Admin post: ok...I hope you guys don't mind the move. carry on with the discussion...

Admin post: oops...I think the AI discussion is starting to overwhelm main...my bad, I kinda joined in. heh I will move the more AI oriented posts to the AI thread... so unless the main topic is Clay with AI mentions...we should really do the heavy AI discussion on the TV forum. ok what color were we supposed to use...I am not used to this...

Oh I guess I had that reaction cos Chris was pretty low on the dial on idol report I saw. Now I think there is enough cannon fodder to save him this week but he better start bringing it with the vocals and be smarter with his mouthing off. He can still be very funny, just don't try to be arrogant with Simon...won't work IMO. I was also checking out mike and Juliet and I think the focus will probably be on Ryan and Simon sniping at each other that Chris will be overlooked in that altercation.

As alway's AI will make me think of Clay... Of course when someone sings a Clay song...you can't help but think of him. I didn't mind Phil's version. Stylistically it was very different from Clay's, it was more Daughtry than a Clay performace so I am not surprised he was the one Simon mentioned in his critique. The problem is...the start of that song was a big mess. He couldnt find the note and his breath support was very bad. Getting the pimp spot is a big responsibility and I remember last year most of the time the pimpees delivered. But last night it was hard to get over that horrid first verse. He did have a great chorus then lost it again in the last little run...I actually find him the most attractive this year. I have to say though that I didn't take it as a diss that Simon compared him to Daughtry...lots of Clayfans in other boards are so pissed cos of course Clay sang that song and should be the gold standard. But I don;t think Clay is always top of mind with Simon, specially as more AI seasons come on. When he was on the chorus I immediately thought of Chris, specially his being bald and singing in a rock style. edited and moved to AI forum... Hey I was thinking about that this morning. I was sure its not Clay...they wouldn;t waste the buzz this early in the season. I didn;t think it would be Duaghtry or Kat either. Carrie and Jennifer are a bit too busy to get involved. So I thought it was Fantasia announcing her involvement in The Color Purple. I was right.

hee ...it took me a bit of time to figure this one out..I was thinking...what should she be jealous about???? BWAH

Hee... yup those AI performances are still the best ever on any AI season...no I am not biased...I am being as objective as possible...He was good until the last show. Kelly can;t say that...and Carrie was just boring a lot fo times... So yeah mesmerizing when you watch him specially when he looks so different.

BWAH!!! I just watched it too and he looked so good but he is aging pretty well I should say...he is just so much more sexy now... But the vocals...that is the kind of voice and performance that Simon is talking about...a voice or performance that people will talk about the next day. No one had that for me. Maybe if Blake sang a more memorable song... I am hoping the girls are better cos they had double the number of girls than guys that came to Hollywood so they had a bigger pool of talent. But there are some cannon fodder as well... I can't remember if last year I was excited about anyone at this point...oh yeah I was excited about Daughtry and Kat...lets see what happens tomorrow. eta:ok...I shouldn;t try to edit while watching AI clay...

Well same thing with Chris Sligh...I think he tried out for 4 times... I read his blog about it before he had to take it down and he had very good attitude about it. hee...I don;t bother looking for my ai stuff anymore...I just dl it again...hee

What is the problem with Ryan...Randy was just a mean tonight... Simon is right most of the time..the only time I disagreed with him was with...oh I forget now. yeah that is one of my most favorite Clay performances cos he didn;t try to glory note it...I think since Phil used a more rock arrangement its different enough that it became ok in the end. WOW ... in the end there were only 3 performers that I am interested to see... Blake, Chris S and Phil the ones I didn't mind too much AJ, Jared and Sanjaya... the rest can just go home, biggest disappointment is Sundance.

they seem to choose forgettable ones that will be fillers... OMG...he is singing a Clay song...started badly. he came on well in the end. at least he sang it more differently than Clay...Clay sang it with a very cool vibe.. oh god...don;t try to eyef*ck... yeah in the end he pulled it off but still that was not really great beginning.

Aj...the most underexposed of the 12... nothing special...competent vocals...nothing special...but nice smile...will be popular with the girls I think.
