American Idol: Discussion Thread

[AllMyDaysatGH]

I really love Heejun but was disappointed by him tonight! I hope he doesn't go home though. I love his voice & sense of humor.

Joshua, Holly, and Philip were my faves tonight.

Not a fan of Elise or her voice. It and also her attitude reminds me of Haley Reinhart from last year. No wonder I can't stand her!

Will.I.Am was annoying!

[Gray Bunny]

Ugh I hated Haley Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrreinhart from last year (remember that incessant growling noise she made? Oy)

I love Heejun too! He's quirky and has got a voice you would just NOT expect to come out of him. But yes, last night was not a good night for him. He sounded out of breath the whole time.

Colton Dixon is one of my faves. He is definitely marketable and very talented. Love the pornstar name too, haha.

Hollie is very good and has such a powerful voice, but she needs to work on having a stronger voice during the slower, subtle parts to the songs.

Joshua is really growing on me and he had a great night!

Jessica is also very good overall, just a weak night last night.

Phillip is definitely very marketable but not my cup of tea, musically speaking.

I like Deandre. Total Milli Vanilli flashback, lol.

The husband likes Skylar, but I think she's going to become to schticky. Same thing every week where she looks like she's having a lil country temper tantrum at one point in every song.

The weakest links in my opinion are: Elise, Erika, and Shannon. None of them have any charisma or star power.

Heejun...ugh...just awful...how he made it to the top 10...really...no wonder American Idol has turned to pure [!@#$%^&*].

[All My Shadows]

I just watched for the first time this season, and I'm feelin' Elise, Philip, and Colton.

[~bl~]

I was surprised Hee Jun didn't come out on stage in a dress in honor of singing the Bosom Buddies theme song... Of course, he is too young to get that reference, but I digress.

Idols night on Idol.

Hee Jun. Best performance of his so far.

Jessica. She murdered that Beyonce song in the best way possible. Great.

Joshua. He has a church voice. My one complaint is when he's not singing in that voice. When he IS singing in that voice it's a thing of beauty.

Hollie was good. Not standing ovation good but good.

Skylar is okay but she tends to over sing a bit.

Phillip, Elise. They can sing but I didn't love them tonight.

Curly? I hate him because of his hair (I'm sorry. It's shallow) and because he sings in 3 different voices during a song.

Who am I forgetting? It's somebody I'm going to vote for because the only two I'm not going to vote for are Curly and Phillip. ETA: It's Colton. Lifehouse sings it better but he did a very good job.

The Medley's. The Stevie Nicks one was perfect. The Michael Jackson one was not very good, but not awful. The girls butchered the Madonna classics. They started picking up on energy at the very end but more than a little too late.

[Gray Bunny]

Elise is just too mousey/dorky to me. She's like the less cool but just as hippy-like version of Karen, the older sister on The Wonder Years. Phillip is good, but it's all the same, week after week. I'm just not into his type of music. Is he good? Yes. Do I fast-forward thru him? Yes.

Skylar definitely goes overboard. It's like she's having some sort of fit on stage. It was cute the first week, but now she's just annoying. And she did not fit in with Jessica and Hollie in the Madonna trio. It was like watching two dainty females and one butch bulldyke.

Deandre and Joshua make a cute couple. Haha. When they sing those love songs, they're thinking of each other. At first I wasn't too keen on Josh, but he's definitely grown on me. Powerful singer and cute effeminite qualities to him. Deandre just makes me laugh. A mixture of Prince, Justin Timberlake, and Milli Vanilli. I hope he sticks around a few more weeks.

I liked Hee Jun, but I know he wasn't the strongest. And he definitely showed his weaknesses during that trio! Lordy, he could not dance or keep in the same beat as the two boyfriends (Deandre & Joshua). Not surprised he was voted off.

Loved the trio doing the Stevie Nicks songs.

Holly is good, but I'm not totally crazy about her. She'll last awhile I'm sure.

Jessica is a powerhouse. Colton is a star. I hope he wins. I could see it being down to those two. With hopefully Joshua as No. 3. I'm sure Phillip will last longer than I want him to, though. Not surprising, just not my cup o' tea.

[DRW50]

I haven't watched the show in ages but this cracks me up.

Tonight's show made me cranky for some reason. I was meh on pretty much everything I saw except for the third duet.

[Soapsuds]

I hate that Philip sings ever song the same way.....I want to love him but damn he is making it hard....lol...and I hate his song choices.....I preferred Colton's Cyndi Lauper verions of Time after Time over Phillips song choice...which like I said he sings the same damn way...lol

[AllMyDaysatGH]

I seriously cannot deal w/this awful sounding girl for another week. She is an embarrasment and needs to go! Haley Reinhart 2.0

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5_gyHhGDhc

LOL! I loved his humor & voice.

[quartermainefan]

I sort of gave up watching. Aside from Philip Phillips none of them seem any good. That southern girl's accent can make you cringe. She ruined that Bette Midler song. She cannot physically pronounce the letter I, and it always comes out "ahhh" "You are the wind beneath mahhhh wings". How do they not help her work on this?

[Soapsuds]

Did they have to tell us that Ryan had a gf who btw was a dog...lol...and had the hots for Phillip?:

[Mr. Vixen]

His girlfriend a dog? On what planet? Julianne Hough is HOT.

[Soapsuds]

She looked like [!@#$%^&*] last night...lol..and she was in love with Phillip...LMAO....is she Derek's sister??
