Is it because I cant stand Justin that I cant stand this guy even more??? It's one thing to be inspired by your favorite singer but to emmulate them to the T....to sing, act, dress, fidget..tilt the head...JUST LIKE JT...it just drives me insane....

What also drives me insane is how this evil show hooks me every year...I know I'm better than this....but I just fall victim...for good reason this year...Melinda and LaKeisha are revelations!

another Idol thread!

i didn't get the jt emulation thingie but he still annoys me.

sosgemini said:

Really? Thats all I see...down to the way he dresses...I guess he just acts like any boy band wannabe tryna be soulful.

peace

the JT emulation will benefit him in the short term and hurt him in the long run.


but otherwise, i don't mind him. he does what he does pretty well.

Off Topic:
Melinda
Lakisha
Stephanie
and.....NOTHING else.

Tessa said:

Totally...it will only hurt him...curious to see what he will do tonight on 'British Invasion 60's night'

I will say he has nice teeth....

that's it though!

peace

Hard to say. I forgive more on Idol than in the real world. This guy is kind of entertaining in his song choices, though last week he was pure shyte.

But is he was just a pop star I'd probably hate him just like justin.

I'd put Jordin up there...she needs to stop with the fluffy Disney-like ballads but she is really young...shes from my hometown of Phoenix, AZ so I have a bit of a soft-spot for her....she's the first Zonie to make it in the Top 12...and she's so beautiful.

But you're right Melinda, Kiki and Stephanie are the greats for sure...Melinda singing 'Home' last week made me a hot mess as it did Paula.

I forgot about the youngster.....her also.

I liked Blake in the beginning, but now he's beginning to bug me a lot.

I am out on Wed nights, so I really don't know the girls, but Lakisha seems like the obvious choice to win it, if it really is all about singing

i get a poser vibe from Stephanie. she's got a good voice, no doubt, but there's no originality to her. she's a copy-cat singer.

They all sing on Tuesdays now. Tonight is 'British Invasion 60's' night and they have some high-profile songwriters from that time..Lulu and someone else rather....

should be interesting song picks...

I'm prediciting lots of Dusty Springfield from the ladies (and gents)..'Son of a Preacher MAn' and 'The Look of Love' are sure to be sung tonight!!!!!

peace

I'll bet Sanaynay last a couple of more weeks.

VANITYSprisonBYTCH said:

yeah, last week was the forst time I saw the girls (other than the ones who got kicked off on thurdays)

I wonder if they'll finally do some Beatles?

VANITYSprisonBYTCH said:

to be fair i do an awesome job of avoiding him...so i don't really know what his style is in the first place.

NDRU said:

doubt they can get clearnce for the Beatles. hell, the internet jukebox at the local bar has 300,000+ songs to choose from, but no Beatles.

sosgemini said:

I don't think he's specifically that much like Justin, but he's basically cut from the same cloth. And they have similar looks, which brings the comparison.

Tessa said:

that's horrible! They did do Something last season, but that's a different publisher than Lennon-McCartney songs.

NDRU said:

That's right Taylor sang 'Something'...I gotta say if Harrison tracks are available to be performed..I fear Blake will get a hold of 'Guitar Gently Weeps' and remix it the way he did 'Keep ME Hanging On'

Tonight as I said before should feature plenty Dusty Springfield...maybe some Stones? Petula Clark 'Downtown' is possible....

Let's all hope that Sandaya keeps from singing 'Babba O'Riley' and doing the hula at the same time!

peace

it's weird how "Downtown" has become so prominent in my life lately. I saw her perform it on PBS twice in the last 2 weeks, plus it's in a commercial right now, and my boyfriend played me Bjork's cover of it.

and now this mention. very weird.

I totally think he is a JT wannabe! Drives me nuts...but I did like his performance tonight.
