Another week, another episode of Idol. This week, the theme is Country. Martina McBride is the tutor this week. More than a half hour left before it comes on in the East Coast/Central Time zone.

I bet Melinda tears a country ballad up...she has the southern vocals for it...something by Dolly or Reba...sassy!

Oooh..Country was Mandisa's kiss of death...as long as they stay away from tacky Shania songs...go with the ballads!

peace

Those are some great points. I hope Melinda kills it again!

Go Jordin! She turned that shit out!

From what I heard, country isn't a kind genre for black women (in more ways than one...I mean, how many African American female country singers are there? THere are a few men here and there). However, I bet it treats a young Indian man very kindly!

I mean, when you really think about it, stuff like this is the reason why AI is such a huge joke. If it was singers always doing songs in their genre of music, fine. This is so unrealistic and absurd, really! Talk about no artist development!

Didn't she though?! I'm not lying, I went like this when she was done: I'm rooting for her big time!

Sanjaya, Sanjaya, Sanjaya I knew he would find a way to raid Willie Nelson's closet.

I'M VOTING FOR SAMIJAMI, HE SUCKED BIGTIME TONIGHT! I PRAYING THAT HE WINS SO THEY CAN TOTALLY REVAMP THE SHOW OR EVEN CANCEL THIS CRAP!

debbiedean2 said:

You are wasting your time. Idol will continue whether you or anyone wants it around or not. Now if they revamp it, then I can get with it but I don't know if this is the right way to go about in getting it changed.

purplecam said:

OK, I'VE CHANGED MY MIND. I WANT MELINDA TO WIN AND SAMIJAMI TO BE THE RUNNER-UP SHE KICKED ASS TONIGHT. I REALLY THINK THAT THEY ARE GOING TO BRING SOME CHANGES TO THE SHOW NEXT SEASON BECAUSE OF THE SAMIJAMI FIASCO

AND I'M STILL VOTING FOR SAMIJAMI TONIGHT

debbiedean2 said:

I'd want either Melinda or Jordin to win. Sanjaya's going far but I can see him in the final 3 or 4. I also think that changes are going to happen with the voting system. Before the season started, I wondered if something was going to change with the was voting was done. It may just happen for next year.

I ALWAYS MISS JORDIN'S PERFORMANCE

debbiedean2 said:

She was 2nd and she was amazing and I'm not exaggerating.

purplecam said:

Jordan was the best performance of the night

i sort of slept through the others

muse87 said:

I have to agree with you. Melinda was 2nd for me. I must say, the most improved was Phil. He finally came alive tonight and didn't look like a walking corpse!

I hope Sanjaya makes it this week. I'm worried.

purplecam said:

he always looked sickly

and Melinda's always great

VinnyM27 said:

actually, throwing genres of music that they aren't comfortable with at them and getting them to do something with it, instead of staying inside their little box, is exactly what's going to develop them as artists.

Sanjaya is safe for another week or so

i think the Justin Timberlake doppelganger is going home tomorrow

i sortve liked him

muse87 said:

Chris is ok but I won't be shocked if he goes home. His voice was not up to par tonight. Not to say that Sanjaya gets a "Get out of Jail" card for his performance.

purplecam said:

yeah, it was pretty horrid

even for him

muse87 said:

i'm wondering if what happened at Virginia Tech has anything to do with his performance. He did seem glassy eyed and almost choked up when he gave his condolences to the people at VT.
