It’s Tuesday night, another American Idol night.
Anoop started the show with and Usher Top 40 Hits and it seems like that he’s trying to usher through it and trip over.
Without the dancing it is a bit mechanical. But his voice sound fantastic. A couple of note off here and there.
Then Megan come up with an Bob Marley. It seems that the freshness of her quirky voice had run it’s course. No doubt it’s uniquely hers but without orchestrating the melody to fit her voice it seems a bit boring and to have a unique voice performing another and not nail it is no good for contestant at this stage. It’s down to popularity votes this week.
Danny take in a Rascal Flatts Hits and it’s a totally moving performance. But somehow it felt that the pace is slower than the original and not reaching that level of energy. The judges totally love him though.
Allison take on Don’t Speak from No Doubt
And for the first time we see her use a guitar, it started perfectly and it sound even better than the original. But at the middle her voice started to stray off course and I have a feeling that her rehearsal is better than the live performance. The judges just don’t like the outfit.
Next up is scott the piano playing is fantastic, I admit. But the singing, he is more or less back to the strange off beat course. Some of the run is out of place and the beat is slower. The judges love the different mood in his look and style.
Matt did the Fray and the battle of the piano is on. He started earlier even before Ryan finish announcing him, I must say it wasn’t better than the original but it got Matt’s style written all over it. The performance is cool and rockin. But the judges hates it. They think it’s too close to the original. They want differences from the contestants this week. And they can’t get him because he’s showing too many sides of his musical. The artistic impression is blurred.
Lil Rounds take on Celine Dion’s I Surrender the original is far too powerful to ignore. She started slow, the chorus part is too soft, when she come to the 2nd verse, it’s better. But throughout it is a bit shouty and not powerful enough vocally. This week is breaking into Matt and Lil. They just have to let loose and do their own thing.
Adam is up next and it is wild. The perfect song, he can do his wild range without the over kill. It’s rocking the house down and it’s hot. The only thing I’d say is he gotta take care of his eating habit on the show. It’s looks like he is gaining weight
Kris Allen Closes the Show. And another piano performance for there Ain’t No Sunshine and there’s light everywhere. It totally hit the ball out of the park and beyond. It’s original, it’s hot it’s sensible and sentimental, it’s everything fits right to the last bit. I’ve heard Hanson’s version and this one felt even more current than that.
There’s no doubt that this week’s Top is Kris and Adam. One will symbolizes the original rocker of this season and the other the singer like last years.
And Kris has not yet any fault until now and it is pretty safe to say he is getting to the final show date.
So Kris on top with Adam chasing in after him
Danny is good on judges and live reactions and I think Allison is safe this week.
The rest is up for the audience.
I’ll take Matt’s in the middle and Lil after that. But they are not really there with judges comments.
Scott I think is just….. the same and I hope he’ll find some way to get back to the country strong. But I think it is time to reach the last 3 for him. So do Anoop. He is a bit shaky this week. And the ushering is too far off this time. The timing is not on his side to go first and not wing it. And Megan has just down to the end of the runway this time. I don’t see if there any chances she’ll get to next week unless the people supporting her is more than the other 2. There might be a surprise that Matt or Lil will go too. it’s hard to guess but I’ll think it’s Megan to go this week.
