Doesn't anyone else? When she wasn't trying to do those 40-something style songs, she brought a unique young fun edge to AI. Her jewish humour and personality reminds me of Janice from Friends. I almost want to marry her. Almost.
She's much better than some of the bland blondes that are still in the competition now.
And who remembers that 16 year old girl whose mother collapsed during the early stages. SHE COULD REALLY SING. I can't believe she's out meanwhile non-risktaking country western style singers, and weakvoiced people such as Anwar, or singers whose music you wouldn't even download, like the blond boy with the now-closed hole in his throat are still there.
Some of these people are not "pop" material. I can't see them having long careers. Mind you, pop itself is passed it.
Who was that young black girl who sang with her arms trembling, her pupils dilated and was just generally, a pile of nerves on-stage? Her parents were coaching her a lot during the early stages? Anyway, how was SHE IN FOR SO LONG ANYWAY? She had one performance where I was embarrassed on her behalf.
Constantine, except for last week's performance for me has been overly amateur. I didn't know he even could sing until last week. Thank goodness he has decided to stop with the OTT mic-grabbing, and has focused on letting us hear him sing - note, not scream as in previous weeks, but give melody to his voice. I hope it wasn't a one-off.
Bo sounds like Curtis Stigers. Bo has soul and rock in one.
Simon needs more metaphors and comparisons than that "hotel lobby" line.
Lastly, as much as I love Paula Abdul and her music from 1987-1992, they have to change the judging order so she can't copy Randy's comments. Plus, even when she does have her own opinion, it's always suckuppish:
*So Paula, what do you think of X's terrible performance?*
PAULA: "You did your thing, and you have great showmanship and I love your shoes."
It's sickening and blatantly obvious over-sucking-up. I'd respect her more if she said:
"I dunno. I wasn't listening. I was looking in my bag for my makeup."
