Comments Off Normally I’d make this a priority at the expense of my day job because most of it can usually wait. But I have a lot to do in the next 36 hours and this season of American Idol sucks anyway. I speed watched the show. Here are a few quick comments without some of my normal detail. I’ll make it up to you, my loyal readers, next week.
Spring is in the air and April showers abound. Good a time as any to let the American Idol contestants torture us with dull versions of classic John Lennon and Paul McCartney tunes. Such a great songbook to choose from… I wonder why most of them decided to bore us instead of busting out with some Beatle’s style fun. You want creative Beatle’s music on American Idol? YouTube up some Chickezie from 2008. You having trouble sleeping? Watch this week’s American Idol.
Comments Off How bad is it when American Idol can’t even find a current or has-been recording star to mentor the contestants? They just grabbed one of the ushers? I don’t get that.
I get that Miley Cyrus is adorable and talented. But can she close her mouth when she chomps her gum? As for her skills as mentor, maybe it just didn’t make it onto the camera. It seemed to be a glorified meet-n-greet. I suspect it’s all just an excuse to get her on the show to pimp a new CD on this week’s results show. As we’ve come to learn – THIS is American Idol.
I have to admit, I expected it to be worse. It seemed to me that mixing The Rolling Stones and American Idol would be a recipe for disaster. Instead, the evening was steeped in mediocrity. The pre-performance clips for each contestant were actually more painful. One great performance, one somewhat painful, but the rest were pretty middle-of-the-road.
Comments Off Looking back to Tuesday for just a moment, the girls delivered some good performances and decent vocals. A few aren’t “worthy” but only one was painful. Wednesday night I was expecting the guys to pale in comparison. That was an understatement. I think my ears actually bled. As for the judges… they are all on CRACK. Here’s how I saw it:
