There aren’t too many times when someone’s live performance can bring tears to your eyes. This is especially true when it is a type of music you don’t normally listen to. Check out Carrie Underwood and Vince Gill sing “How Great Thou Art” and let me know what you think. For me, if you don’t [...]

Adam Lambert might actually be talented…
Posted: 27th April 2009 by admin in American Idol, Music, RandomTags: Adam Lambert, adam lambert wicked, lambert talent
It just that on Idol, he doesn’t seem to fit. I believe that his voice just might fit Broadway though. Maybe he will take that path again when he comes in second (or wins, whatever). Ha See his performance of “As Long As You’re Mine” from WICKED.
What’s the big deal about Adam Lambert?

Am I missing something here? Sure, Adam is unique and whatever, but really? Is he THAT amazing? Is he THAT creative? Should Simon have given him a standing ovation? I have to quote my old roommate here. After Megan Joy got kicked off of Idol, he said something to the effect of: Now that Megan [...]
Blake Lewis Dropped…

Well, apparently our 6th season runner-up Blake Lewis has been dropped from Arista Records label. This isn’t too surprising considering they rushed his first release and he wasn’t able to truly do what he wanted to do with it. Whenever I saw him in interviews or performances, he seemed less than excited to talk about [...]

American Idol Alum Vonzell Solomon was apparently stopped at a Florida airport with a gun in her checked luggage. It was unloaded and she has a permit for it. Apparently you also need a permit to carry it on a plane. If there was intent to use it, why would you pack it in a [...]
And the Winner of American Idol 2008…

The winner is… David COOK! So, I want to say that I am somewhat surprised to hear COOK come out of Seacrest’s mouth tonight, but I don’t think I really am. It really was anyone’s game. Both were deserving. What I am surprised about is the fact that Archuleta had 12 million less votes than [...]
American Idol – Top 2 – My Thoughts…
Posted: 20th May 2008 by admin in American Idol, Entertainment - General, Music, TelevisionTags: AI, American Idol, american idol finale, archie, celebrate me home, cook, David Archuleta, David Cook, idol top two, ruben studdard
Well, tonight is the night that we get to hear the cheesy winner’s song debuted. I wonder if they both will have the same song this year or if they each get their own. Hopefully the latter. To be honest, I don’t really care who wins. It is my thought that David Cook would do [...]
Less Idol = More Better

Improper grammar on purpose…chill! CNN.com tells me… Fox executives said they were disappointed with the ratings declines for “American Idol” this season, and will cut back the Wednesday results show to 30 minutes. That’s fantastic news. The End.
Top 3 –> Top 2 — :(
Posted: 15th May 2008 by admin in American Idol, Entertainment - General, Music, TelevisionTags: AI, American Idol, David Archuleta, David Cook, FOX, idol, Syesha Mercado, top three, top two
Syesha Mercado has been eliminated from American Idol. Top Three! Not bad for someone who has been in the bottom two too many times to count. Not bad for the contestant that the judges never wanted to compliment. Not bad for the contestant that a majority of the viewing audience disliked. Not bad for my [...]
Top 3 – American Idol – My Thoughts (Live)…

Before going into this and after reading the song list, I think that, based on song choices only, it is Syesha’s final night. Unless one of the Davids crap it up, she is gone. Once again, blogging live and all over the place… David Archuleta – “And So it Goes” by Billy Joel “I was [...]
