American Idol Top 7

April 18, 2012 by Amy 4 Comments

AMERICAN IDOL: Top 7 (with save): L-R: Holly Cavanaugh, Josh Ledet, Colton Dixon, Jessica Sanchez (saved), Elise Testone, Phillip Phillips and Skylar Laine. CR: Michael Becker / FOX.

Hollie – Nailed it. Very, very nice. First time I’ve seen Hollie be relevant and sound great the whole time.

Colton – Colton’s fan girls just fainted. I liked it. Pure rock is not where I see him but he did they well enough.

Elise – Wow, she was definitely ON in that song. I’m close to saying I love that better than the original.

Phillip – omg omg omg Favorite performance this season. That was amazing. I was giggling like a fan girl and then had this nasty look on my face at the end. That was sick. J Lo got it right. “That was sexy, baby.” Holy cow.

Jessica – Beautiful. But copycat. How do you follow such an original like Phillip?

Skylar – Too much angry redneck for me. Not my favorite.

Joshua – I wasn’t loving the front end of that but wow, by the end the Joshua I love showed up.

Hollie – That fell a little flat to me. As big as her voice is I can’t believe she couldn’t put more umph into it. That last note was great though.

Colton – I think that might have been one of my favorites of his. I can see myself listening to it. Maybe not powerful like the judges wanted but it was good.

Elise – Randy hit it. She over sang that.

Phillip – Phillip is singing like he’s already won. In a good way. Love this confidence he’s found. And J Lo is cracking me up.

Jessica – I didn’t particularly enjoy that.

Skylar – I just, I don’t know. I think Skylar might be more than I can handle. That felt like the old manic Skylar to me.

Joshua – That song was perfect for him.

Favorite – Phillip

In trouble – Hollie and Elise

American Idol Top 8

April 4, 2012 by Amy 1 Comment

AMERICAN IDOL: FINAL 8: Clockwise from L: Skylar Laine, Phillip Phillips, Colton Dixon, DeAndre Brackensick, Elise Testone, Jessica Sanchez, Hollie Cavanagh and Joshua Ledet on AMERICAN IDOL airing Wednesday, March 29 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. CR: Frank Micelotta / FOX.

 

Deandre – There was a lot of that that I really liked actually. Also a lot I didn’t like though. 

Elise – Ok I just can’t handle that song messed with. The chorus felt shouty and I just didn’t like what she did in the verses.

Phillip – Good gracious, I love this guy.  I just loved that and really want him to just go make an album already.

Colton and Skylar- that was a brilliant choice for both of them. Loved it.

Hollie and Deandre – Why can’t Hollie sing like this on her solos? Deandre was eh.

Joshua – I usually love Joshua but for some of that I felt like he was pushing too hard.

Jessica – Not her best but a decent copycat of Whitney. That said, her voice is just so pretty.

Phillip and Elise – Yikes, that was just a little rough. They just have different styles that didn’t mesh well.

Hollie – First, that dress was so much fun. Pitch problems galore though.

Joshua and Jessica – Loved that. Felt like those two were definitely finale worthy. Wow, J Lo said the same thing!

Colton – This is one of my favorite songs from him. My only complaint with him continues to be enunciation.

Skylar – Wow, I’m not sure I’ve ever heard that sung with so much conviction. Great moment for her.

Favorites: Phillip and Skylar

In trouble: Elise and Deandre

American Idol Top 9

March 28, 2012 by Amy Leave a Comment

AMERICAN IDOL: The Final 9: Clockwise From Top L; Colton Dixon, Elise Testone, Phillip Phillips, Heejun Han, DeAndre Brackensick, Josh Ledet, Hollie Cavanaugh, Skylar Laine and Jessica Sanchez. CR: Michael Becker / FOX.

Colton – I really wanted to like that as it was his favorite worship song but I found it sleepy in the beginning and a bit sloppy. I couldn’t understand a word. I did see that he believed it I just couldn’t enjoy it. Gosh, I hate that. The judges don’t agree. Am I missing it??

Skylar – Besides being on the manic side a little, I enjoyed this. Felt like it was right up her alley and she sounded like a pro.

Colton, Elise, Phillip – Loved Colton with the first song. Not sure they nailed the group. The second with Elise was better. The third with Phillip was my favorite for the group.

Heejun – Ok that’s the Heejun we all fell in love with. Beautiful. I want to play that on repeat. Yes!!!

Hollie – That was no Carrie but it wasn’t horrible. “I’m not going to mess with Jesus or Carrie.” lol Smart, Steven.

Deandre – Wow, that really should have gone well but it only hurt my ears. Clearly the judges disagree again.

Jessica – I don’t know if that was my favorite song ever but gorgeous vocals. She’s amazing.

Deandre, Joshua and Heejun – Heejun was amazing on that first part. The rest was eh.

Phillip – I have no idea what that song was but I’m still on the Phillip train.

Joshua – Wow, Joshua. That is some sanging. So amazing.

Hollie, Skylar, Jessica – Yikes. Madonna on those girls is pretty sketchy.

Elise – Well, clearly, rock is where Elise is supposed to be.

Favorites – How do you pick?? I think for me, tonight goes to Phillip, Joshua and Heejun

In trouble – Deandre
