American Idol. Its, inspiration night, so everyone is singing songs of inspiration and upliftment. (Is that a word? Well it is now, LOL. We gon throw that up in the Dig-tionary).
White Chocolate…. Mm mm mm. I love that boy, but I must say sometimes that falsetto makes me nervous. More accurately stated, his transition to the falsetto makes me nervous. You have to know his singing style to know he aint cracking, but I was on the phone during his judging, so I don’t even know what the panel had to say about that.
Melinda saing a Faith Hill song and boy did she sing it. But Ima say it one mo gain, America – EARRINGS! PLEASE! Ima have to email the show and request it cause she killin me. Paula: “You were just…..magical!” Do better, Paula. Do better.
Baby Sting – uh, I mean Blake – did good with John Lennon’s “Imagine” but that’s the kind of song you really cant do much with. Its dull and its gotta stay that way – but is that really the kinda song you wanna sing in a competition where you are supposed to be showcasing your vocals? Hmmm… might wanna think about that one Blake. Still, he performed it well – well, JUST like John Lennon LOL – so I wont complain.
Lakisha, Lakisha, Lakisha. KiKi, you might be going home tomorrow girl. It aint that she didn’t perform well, but she sang Fantasia’s “I Believe” and Im sorry but Fantasia is now among the ranks of Mariah and Whitney and Chaka (per Paula) where you don’t wanna attempt one of their songs because the original is so amazing. She didn’t hold a candle to the Fantasia version, and when you are singing a well-known song, you gotta light that shit up. If she don’t go home, she at least gon be in the bottom three. I’d bet a case on that.
Phil did a great job. Loved it. But he always does his thing to me.
Jordin….. watch what I tell yall. That girl gon win. I didn’t love the song she sang but she belted it out. It was too slow in my opinion, she couldn’t even walk the stage right trying to sing it, but the judges love her, the white people love her and that to me says American Idol.
Bottom three? My predictions: Lakisha, Chris and Blake, Tune in to Fox tonight at 9/8 Central and see.
