Marty is running away with this competition. I so enjoyed his encore of "Wish You Were Here." Some of the INXS band members were wiping tears from their eyes-- it was so moving. From what I've read, what we didn't hear, is that on Tuesday night's show-- the crowd went so wild, they were clapping and cheering his performance for more than two straight minutes until David Navarro had to finally quiet everyone down. Marty owns this contest!
I have never made it a secret that I don't care for Ty's voice. But, I had thought he was a decent person. I was quite disappointed, however, in Ty's closing statements. He said, "It hurts me a little that as a people that I belong to that we’re not appreciated enough in rock n’ roll that I could put out the performances that I put out and wind up in the bottom three for this many weeks. Because I know what I did, and so that hurts me and I can’t pretend that I don’t know why it is.”
How dare he pull out the "race card?" That was just poor sportsmanship.. and he has probably now ruined any chances of getting work in the future. Come on... Jordis has only been in the bottom three ONCE (last night-- for the first time) and she is "a people you belong to."
Now, it's time for J.D. to go. He didn't learn the INXS lyrics in Tuesday's show, and he can't even take ownership for that. Instead, he puts blame on Susie for telling it like it was. He's an obnoxious person. I hope to see him eliminated next week.
For fellow Marty fans... great new interview:
