says... ::: ::: The contestants will be judged after their second song. :: :: Unless you're Paula with your time machine. :: ::: That means half as ::: much time for the judges to screw around. Works for me! ::: ::: PERFORMANCES ::: ::: Jason Castro - Forever in Blue Jeans ::: He's playing guitar. This song works for Jason. _base_d on the violin ::: p_layer_'s big sunglasses, I'd say there's a domestic violence ::: situation at home. Wow, that was a short performance. I haven't ::: cared for Jason much lately, but that wasn't that bad. ::: ::: [break] ::: ::: SITJ = Seacrest introduces the judges. ::: ::: RFGS&BS = Randy flashes gang signs and boos Simon. ::: ::: [return] ::: ::: David Cook - I'm Alive ::: David is wearing a jacket embroidered with AC in three-inch ::: letters, which is probably about his brother, which he is being ::: very low-key about and whose situation he isn't exploiting at all. ::: No sir. The same letters are on his guitar. Well, there I go again, ::: the performance is over, and I haven't commented on his singing. It ::: was OK. :: :: Tell us what you really think, I-Man? :: ::: ::: Brooke White - I'm a Believer ::: Neil wants her to sing I'm Arizona born and raised on her next ::: song. She's playing guitar, which I assume is mainly to prevent her ::: from trying to dance on this upbeat song. Because we've all seen ::: that. I think Brooke is making this song work. Too short. She looks ::: happy with herself. :: :: I didn't notice, did she say I'm Arizona born and raised? :: Yes, and one line in the song says something about two shores and she smiled. I don't think Arizona is very near a shore...yet. ::: ::: [break] ::: ::: Next Monday, on House, M.D. , House will take unusual measures to ::: help a patient. ::: ::: [return] ::: ::: There's a sign ITA, My husband has a man-crush on Seacrest . :: :: That has to win some type of award for sign of the year. :: ::: ::: David Archuleta - Sweet Caroline ::: Neil calls David kind of a prodigy . David's voice is perfect. I ::: like the oh 's. He is keeping his eyes open. This song has a lot ::: of long, open vowels, which David does great with. Good job. He ::: looks happy. :: :: He looked like he was actually having some fun for the rare time. :: ::: ::: Syesha Mercado - Hello Again ::: She's not going to wear her hair that way for her performance, is ::: she? No, it's straight. Wow, she looks great. I wish the stupid ::: mosh girls would get their stupid hands out from in front of her ::: face. I wonder if Syesha is going to pull a Vonzell and go all the ::: way to the top 3. Her voice sounds beautiful. The last two lines ::: were great. She's barefoot. :: :: Kim Locke straightened her hair and went to 3rd place. She did it :: weeks before now, though, still...... :: :: ::: ::: Now all five contestants are on the stage. Judges, what do you ::: think? ::: ::: Randy: Jason - just OK. David C. - very good. Brooke - better than ::: last week. David A. - the bomb. Syesha - in the zone. ::: ::: Paula: Jason - Paula's critiquing both of Jason's songs, even ::: though he's only sung one. Paula says, You know what? This is ::: hard! Now she tries to do David C. Let's skip Paula. :: :: Too late, this may have been the most significant and major gaffe in :: AI history and the repercussions of it may be quite serious. :: ::: ::: Simon: Jason - forgettable. David C. just above average. Brooke - a ::: nightmare. David A. - amateurish. Syesha - old-fashioned. ::: ::: [break] ::: ::: GFTC = Gotta feed the cats. :: :: It seems like you are always feeding those cats. :: ::: ::: Paula, please watch the performances before giving your critique. ::: Thank you. :: :: Really, that was a serious, serious, problem that they should have to :: deal with fast. :: ::: ::: On May 22 on So You Think You Can Dance , Cat Deely will once ::: again make the show unwatchable for me. :: :: CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT :: DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, :: CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT :: DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, :: CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, :: :: Gotta love her! (They should, immediately, replace Paula with her). :: :: CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT :: DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, :: CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT :: DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, :: CAT DEELEY, CAT DEELEY, :: :: (you can NEVER get enough Cat Deeley!) :: :: :: ::: ::: [return] ::: ::: Jason Castro - September Morn ::: He's sitting. ... look atchoo . Hey, licking your lips is David's ::: thing! It was pretty good up to the last line,which he just tossed ::: out. Randy said it was just OK, definitely not the best. Paula said ::: both songs were safe, and in his comfort zone. Or is that all three ::: songs? Simon said this was not the Jason we put into the ::: competition . He didn't like it. :: :: _script_ rewrite between the first judgements and the second? :: :: :: ::: ::: David Cook - All I Really Need Is You ::: I realized, during his last performance, how much alike Neil ::: Diamond and David Cook are ... and that isn't a compliment to ::: either of them. I didn't care for that. Randy said you rocked the ::: house again tonight . Paula is proud of him. She feels like she's ::: already looking at the American Idol. Simon said the second song ::: was brilliant . He made the song contemporary. ::: ::: [break] :: ::: ::: Brooke White - I Am ... I Said ::: She thought she did well in her first performance, and it wasn't a ::: nightmare . :: :: That wasn't the same, to me, as being mouthy as she has been. It was :: more speaking up and standing up for herself. Good on her. :: ::: She's playing piano. Someone help that poor violinist. ::: Domestic violence is a serious problem! :: :: What was it with those shades, anyway? :: ::: I didn't' think much of Brooke's ::: treatment of the verses, but she did OK with the chorus. My big cat ::: evidently disagrees, because he's just left half his dinner on the ::: carpet. I understood when he did that for Fantasia, but I wasn't ::: expecting this! Randy said she did a good job. Paula said everyone ::: loves who Brooke is, and it works. Simon said this is the Brooke ::: we like. It wasn't incredible, but it was good. ::: ::: David Archuleta - America ::: I have never cared for this song. It's too repetitive, both in the ::: words and in the melody. This isn't really his _style_, either. He ::: did a good job with a bad song. Randy said David is in the zone. ::: Paula said it was the perfect song for him. She loves him. Simon ::: said it was a smart song choice. It ticked all the boxes . Very ::: good. ::: ::: [break] ::: ::: If y'all will excuse me, I have to go clean something up. :: :: Far better you than me, if kitty hasn't re-eaten her second dinner :: already before you got to it. ::: ::: [return] ::: ::: Syesha Mercado - Thank the Lord for the Night Time ::: This song has a Motown feel, doesn't it? I'm hearing a talky, non- ::: melodic tone to her singing, which I don't like. I didn't care for ::: it. Randy said ... uh, I forgot what he said already. Paula ::: babbled. I think she liked it. Simon said she demonstrated that she ::: is a very good actress/singer, but she may be in trouble? Why? ::: Because there are only five of you left, and her second song wasn't ::: really memorable. :: :: Why does she agree when she's told that? She might as well hold up a :: sign saying please eliminate me so I can grab a tv/movie/Broadway :: part. :: :: ::: WRAPUP ::: ::: We see recaps of tonight's performances. ::: ::: Seacrest reminds us to vote for our favorites. ::: ::: My ranking of tonight's performances, from most favorite to least: ::: 1. Syesha Mercado - Hello Again ::: 2. David Archuleta - Sweet Caroline ::: 3. Brooke White - I'm a Believer ::: 4. Brooke White - I Am ... I Said ::: 5. Syesha Mercado - Thank the Lord for the Night Time ::: 6. David Archuleta - America ::: 7. Jason Castro - September Morn ::: 8. Jason Castro - Forever in Blue Jeans ::: 9. David Cook - I'm Alive ::: 10. David Cook - All I Really Need Is You ::: ::: Predictions: Bottom 2 - Brooke and Syesha. Eliminated - Brooke. ::: :: :: Syesha could go out from 5 through 3. This may be a CE or a surprise :: bottom two week. If it's a surprise bottom two week, whoever it is :: might be in very strong shape the rest of the way for the finals and, :: maybe, win. :: :: ::
