American Idol 7

Holy hell.


Castro - I WANTED TO STAB YOU FOR TOUCHING, NO, THINKING OF SINGING MEMORY. What the fuck? You didn't know it was sung by a cat? Are you not smart enough to RESEARCH the songs you'll be singing? I know you have AT LEAST one week's notice. Do you not Google Memory AT ALL? Damn you. You made my ears bleed. I could have stood you doing Any Dream Will Do...

Brooke -- WHY, WHY, WHY would you pick one of ALW's WORST songs? For goodness' sake MADONNA sang the song. It's not a good performance song. She's dying. That's not a great thing to sing about... Brooke, you should have done the Narrator's prologue as mentioned below from JatATTD or how about I Don't Know How to Love Him from JCS? Everything's Alright from JCS?
I would, however, have done just like you did and restarted the song. You had just started it and it was the perfect way to get back on track. If you hadn't, Paula would have told you that you should have stopped. You can't win with her sometimes.

Carly -- THANK YOU for listening to ALW! You are so much better off for singing what you feel is more like YOU. Can't say enough.

Cook - That was hot. I have a bit of lust going on when you sing. That topped it off. I was worried about you singing this song and trying to possibly ROCK it. But, you kept it clean and beautiful like the original...I had you pegged for JCS for sure. Really pleasantly surprised.

David A. -- I didn't like what you did at all. That song should have stayed female. Simon was right. I have trouble remembering anything except you took one of the great songs and made it blase'.

Syesha -- You chose a song that worked for you. It wasn't terribly "Lloyd-Webberish" in that it was an easier melody than most. The range is not like most of his songs and you clearly went off pitch toward the end in your yelling. I like what you did. But, would have preferred you stretching yourself like Cookie or Carly. Hell, even Castro tried to do something great. You COULD have sung Memory and rocked it. You might have even been able to carry off Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again. But, you chose something easy.

My bottom three:
Syesha, Castro, Brooke.

And, Castro would leave.


Dammit, I kept waiting for a Joseph song... Any Dream Will Do??? Anyone? Or how about another one of my favorites: the Narrator's prologue to Joseph???

I can understand why people chose so many Phantom songs. It's one of my fave musical theatre shows. But, c'mon... Don't you pull up his songs and LISTEN before choosing? There are OTHER songs out there.
