10 guys, blah blah blah...
we get a recap of the girls' performances. we get some semi-amusing ryan/judges banter.
1) taylor - "easy" by the commodores. with a "tabogan??" off, it's like "ohhhhhhhh!!!!!". his movments on stage seem involuntairy at times. lol. didn't love the song on him, and it wasn't as good as "levon" last week, but it was still definitely good. randy heard pitch problems, but still likes him. taylor keeps doing "whoo"s. paula loves his outfit, but it wasn't her fave song choice. it didn't work for simon, again with the song choice, and thinks we should get out of the bubble. the first concert taylor went to was lionel richie, and he got a t-shirt from there, but says it's too tight, so ryan says he could be like simon. lol!
2) elliot - "moody's mood for love" by james moody. it's his brother's b-day. his mom was hospitalized during hollywood week. awww... the start was wierd... didn't a crooner last season, that didn't make it past hollywood, sang it in his audition? again, i don't like the song choice, but it was vocally very good. and again, not quite as good as he was last week. randy gives him a standing o (was it that good?). paula thought it was brilliant (i guess i was wrong?). simon thinks his confidence grows. about the song, he thinks he can't win with that song, but that it was a great performance (was i really that wrong?). as ryan gives his number, he's just standing there nodding. odd.
3) ace - "if you're not the one" by daniel bedingfield. he always has a beanie in his back pocket. is that like a tabogan? HAND GESTURES!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!! i would be more impressed if i was a chick, i guess. it was good, but not as good as last week OR as good as the first two tonight. the falsetto LOOKED painful for him, and SOUNDED painful for me. randy liked the falsetto, and thinks he's better than what we see/hear. paula's got special feelings for ace. it's like she wants to tie him up, shove him in her trunk, and just keep driving to a secluded place. simon thought he struggled with the song. and he refers to paula and randy as mozart and beethoven again, and to himself as naive or something.
4) gedeon - "a change is gonna come" by sam cooke. "IT". "IT". "IT". he forgot the name of the song and the lyrics to the group performance in hollywood. he's got a HYOOGE mouth, and tounge. HAND GESTURES!!! it was vocally good and all, like, really good, but i just wasn't feeling it. maybe it's my unlimited hatered towards the man and the "IT". "IT". "IT". i dunno... randy loves that he's a great natural performance. he also thought he was pitchy at the beginning. GEDEON'S 17-18??? he looks 40!!! paula thinks he's unique and different, and that he's awesome. simon calls him a funny little thing. he thinks his faces are wierd, but think he does that kind of music brilliantly. paula screams for joy. i'm creeped out by randy's love for shoes, and gedeon's smile.
5) kevin - "i heard it through the grapevine" by marvin gaye. ryan calls him "real gangsta" and does a chest bump with him. chicken little doing marvin gaye? pricleless! all of a sudden, he's a "sex symbol", and hundreds of girls think he's cute. he ends the intro clip with a "hey ladies, how you doin'?". lol! he looks so wierd doing that song. he kept looking for the right camera. i liked, if only for the difference between his image and the song's image, and seeing him trying to boogie. lol! paula's laughing and clapping. randy's laughing, and he really enjoyed it, he thinks he can actually sing. paula calls him infectious, and thinks he's the next sex symbol. she thought it was good too. simon thinks he's likeable, but if heard it on the radio he'd turn it off. ryan "found" his body double, chicken little. lol! and we get a split screen comparison. lol!
6) sway - "overjoyed" by stevie wonder. he tells some sob story about his family. can't he sing in a lower register? sound like a man, BITCH! now that was bad. pitchy throughout, bad runs, bad "stage presence", just bad. and HAND GESTURES! AH! i don't like this wierd hybrid. randy thought it wasn't as good as last week (the falsetto hyperdriven one), and that it wasn't good. paula feels he's disconected tonight. simon says it's exactly how NOT to do well on it, it was karaoke, and there was no originality. i say, what does it matter when he just plain out SUCKED?!?!?!?
7) william - "lady" by kenny rogers. he's from texas, apparently. and he met guarini, and thought it was really cool. the sing was too old for him. and the hand gestures. the "up beat"-ish part was better than the rest of the song. that being said, i REALLY liked it. aside from the last note, i think it was really good! paula's in love with a 16 year old. randy thought it was "basically alright", and he wasn't blown out. paula thinks he's got a good tone and he controls it right, but it was too safe. simon thought it was like an audition for "cats". he says he's target audience is 11 year old girls, and will's got a look of "damn, i want boobies on my groupies!". lol. simon thinks though that those 11 year olds will love it. ryan starts removing will's hirt, so that he'll throw down, to that simon tells will to "get off the stage, quick!". will bursts laughing. LOL!
8) bucky - "the thunder rolls" by garthe brooks. i literally can't understand a single word he's saying when he's talking. like kellie, he's overwhelmed by the food in la. at the start of the performance, we hear a thunder roll. talk about cheesy. i didn't like it as much as his "simple man". it was just a'ight, for me. at least he sorta listened to randy about singing too hard. sorta. paula's crying. randy thinks it's a great song choice, there were some pitch problems, but he did his thing. paula thought he's finding his place. parking place? seating place? what? simon thinks he's very sincere. but he comes over as a support-act, and not as a star attraction sort of singer. i sort of agree with simon. we get some amusing food banter between ryan and bucky. and then some laugh-at southern accent from ryan.
9) david - "the way you look tonight" by frank sinatra. he had no belt in his audition, so he wore a car phone charger. LOL! aaaaaand.. he's crooning again. didn't we learn anything from the disaster that was john stevens? didn't he already sang this song, at some point of the competition? as far as a croon song, it was alright, but there's no place for it on the idol. it's just wrong. it's like some hasidic jew will come and sing "hava nagila", or something. the ending was really nice. randy was really bored. paula's rambling. simon thought he lacked the charisma and confidence needed for those type of songs, and that it'd worked better with just a piano backing him.
10) chris - "hemorrhage (in my hands)" by fuel. that's got to be the wierdest song name ever on idol, right? his pose to start was really wierd. BRILLIANT. from the song, to the vocals, to the performing. BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT. randy "loved it, loved it, loved it, loved it". and then he screams "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!". paula calls him amazing, after he says he only knows how good he is when they tell him. simon thinks this is the only performance that stands in the real world, and that it was in a dfferent class tonight. chris jumps up and down.
apparently, bo was in da house, but i didn't see him. booo...
