Songs from the year they were born

Last night the genre was, songs from the year they were born. This is  always interesting to see what song they will choose because of the wide selection from an entire year.

Seacrests hair: Buttload of gel, got 2 b! What an immaculate human being. Love the yellow? pocket square too.

The Judges: Steven is going with the Elvis look tonight, J Lo did a poor job cutting her dress and has on hot pink lip stick on that makes me bite my finger! Randy is rocking a red and black sweater with the matching watch, and keeps it fresh by constantly popping his collar.

Jimmy is back and teamed up with Will-i-am. I love Will I am and have a lot of respect for him as both a performer and producer. I’mma be, I’mma be, listening to what he has to say because he is the man!

 The Contestants:

Phil Phil: Philly Philly is Competing with kidney stones! This guy is an absolute animal and he performed like one tonight. One of my faves in the competition and I have a good feeling most of America agrees. He sings the Black Crows “Hard to Handle”, a song that they play at the Flyers games, and I feel like I’m at one I like the guy that much.

Randy said DUDE, you sound amazing and good song choice, J Lo said it was so natural for him and Steven said he picked a song that matched his voice and character but to watch his melody.

Jessica Sanchez: She is singing “Turn the Beat Around” by Gloria Estefan. The pressure is on because she killed it last week and she will have to sing really amazing to top it…. She is good, but not as good as last week. But she no question is one of the better singers in the competition, and she looks very pretty, even with the chiclets.

The judges weren’t too hot on it. Steven said she strayed too far from a ballad and her rhythm was shaky, J Lo said not her favorite but good job, and Randy said he didn’t like the song choice…. She is still safe.

HEEJOON: He is singing “Right Here Waiting For You” By Richard Marks. Looked good with the pink shirt and bowtie, but he didn’t sing great at all.  And he was singing about his heart breaking, and doesn’t take his hand off his heart the entire song, which for some reason bothered the hell of out of me… And also, as pointed out to me by a colleague of mine, why the in the world does he not have lenses in his glasses?? Looks kind of like an idiot! I was disappointed in Heejoon tonight.

Randy didn’t enjoy it at all, J Lo loved it and Steven said it was very breathy. I still like Heejoon to make the cut this week, but don’t think he’ll last much longer after that.

Elise Testone: Last week she got saved, so this week, she better earn that shee-it! She is singing Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together,” and makes a joke that America will be making babies to it and than laughs at her own joke… Not that funny bitch! She does sing great, but her attitude pisses me off and she needs a boot up her ass.

Steven said she loves her voice, J Lo said it was right on every level, and Randy said it was beautiful and she is back!

Kris Humphries: At first he is going to sing the Lion King song by Elton John. He then decides to sing “Endless Love.” He is curly. I’m already sick of his falsetto and think he is hit a plateau. He looks fresh in the white dinner jacket, but he didn’t impress me vocally and he needs to step his game up if he wants to stick around.

The judges didn’t love it, but went soft on him, instead of ripping him a new one. They blamed Jimmy the freak. Kris Brackensuck get boot? I think he is a candidate.

Shannon Magrane : Shannon takes on Mariah’s “One Sweet Day”. Will-I-am says she should sing it laying down, but production calls it off because she wouldn’t fit on the screen because she is too long. The song however, was too big for her. She didn’t sing it poorly, but she just doesn’t have that star quality I’m looking for.

J Lo said she was terrified for her for taking on the song but she did a beautiful job, Steven said she did a really good job and Randy, who works with Mariah, said he was terrified like J Lo was but was pleased with it.

Colton Dixon: I like this guy a lot and think he is a stud with a milf.  He is also wearing a weird as hell leather vest with an uneven popped collar…. But the dude has a mohawk, so even his weird outfits are still normal. He is singing “Broken Heart” by White Lion……. Ummmm, Svincter says what? He really makes it his own, even though I don’t know what it actually sounds like…But, he“slam dunks it like Vladamir”, as big Willy says. I am definitely on the Colton train.

The judges are on the train too and think this guy has it.

Erika Van Pelt: She is singing Bryan Adams “Heaven”. She sings it very well and has a really cool voice, but she throws in some wack extra notes and pauses which I didn’t think was necessary at all.

Steven says it wasn’t good and she was too busy. He’s kind of a hardass tonight, and

 I’ve never seen him this critical, but I like it! J Lo didn’t love the arrangement and Randy gave it an 8 out of 10. I really enjoy her vocals, but question whether America digs it.

Next we cut to Jermaine Jones getting the boot from the Idol Exec Producers. He is wearing a scarf that matches nothing. 

And he has 4 warrants! I was dying…. What an idiot! I’m happy Kareem Watkins (one of the fake names he gave) is gone.

Skylar Laine: Her name kind of sounds like a pornstar doesn’t it? So, last week I went a little rough on our little country crock Skylar, so I’m going to give her a new shot tonight. She is singing Bonnie Raitt’s “Creeping Up on You.” Jimmy wanted her to change it but she sticks to her guns. I liked it and think she sang it very well. She has got a lot of spunk.

Steven said he has never heard her sing bad, J Lo kept it real and said she really killed it and Randy thought the song didn’t matter because it was nicely done.

Josh Crawfish aka Breath Right Strip Killah! Great makeup job, can’t even see it. He is singing Michael Bolton “When A man Loves a Woman” and is outstanding. He is soulful and keeps me sucked in. His performance was by far the most enjoyable for me and I think when his make up is good, this Nola boy has got serious star power.

The judges love it and say it was by far the best of the night and he he is last weeks Jessica.

Hollie Cavanaugh: I found out that Holly doesn’t have a speech impediment, she is just British. Refreshing, I guess? Holly is taking on Celine Dion’s “Power of Love.” She is a vocal monster and still remains my front runner. She is phenomenal and looks great too.

The judges said there were a couple things off but weren’t worth mentioning because it was great and they love her.

Very solid night of songs from the year the contestants were born. I don’t know who will get the boot but my candidates are Elise, Heejoon and Kris Humphries.

Have a wonderful night!
