You noticed that, too? The gushing over Mike and Dewyze and
Garcia.
These judges are getting on my last nerve.
Bring back Paula! She knew more about good music than those four combined!!

he doesnt seem to be into the ladies....am I right?Fritz in the Nutcracker? I believe you're right :)
To: Palladin
Well obviously as in the case of the gay blade last season they are looking to push the one that they consider the most marketable. I have a bet with someone that Chris will have a longer career in music than Adam. Course, Adam’s lifestyle may lead to a career shortening disease. Just sayin’

Justin looks like Karen Carpenter.
Hope he doesn’t end up like her.

Thanks so much for the prayers! My dad had 2 stents put in yesterday, he had 70% blockage, and was then placed in ICU for observation. He will be put in a room later today and will then be placed in a room for the next few days till he regains strength. It meant alot to have prayers on our behalf, thank you!

But we are only up to $62.03, an IOU for a Popeyes coupon, and a wet nap, so it might be a while. :-(Hey we're doing better than I thought! We might have to add a second donation jar :)

Pfft. That onesie so doesn't rock.

To: retrokitten
Whats going on? You suck. The end.LOL!!
To: silent_jonny
Todrick has a point. If the idols sing a song as-is, the judges complain they're not taking risks. If they DO take risks and change the song, the judges complain again. The contestants should ignore the judges, except when they're right. ;)
Channeling Simon for a second here, the two main things he's looking for from any contestant are:
- Uniqueness (but in a marketable way)
- Relevance to modern music buyers
If you do a "sound-alike" performance, you're neither, plus you tend to draw unfavorable comparisons to the original artist (especially since it's your live version vs. their nicely smoothed out studio version).
Okay, so that means that you've got to put your own "spin" on the song. BUT, this introduces another problem -- if you're going to take on a well-known song and change it up, you have to OWN it up on that stage, or you just wind up looking silly, much like Todrick has looked the last couple of weeks.

Prays up Em. We had a scare like that with my dad a couple of years ago. He’s still hardy as a horse now.
