I need to talk about American
Idol tonight because Anwar inspired me. How I feel about it
is as simple as this: The man has a love affair with music.
It doesn't matter what happens. I feel like it doesn't even
matter if he wins because he has such an honest and true relationship
with music that it'll always be a part of his life and that
will always be enough to make him happy. However, it is BECAUSE
of this that I hope he makes it to the end. I not only loved
his performance, I was actually inspired by it. Just unbelievable.
A lot of those guys did well, but it's down to the wire, and
here are the guys that should be done: Travis and Constantine.
The sad part is, these two guys are so conventionally attractive
that they make fucking make it through, and that's nauseating
to me because they are grossly out sung here, and they clearly
do NOT belong. It pisses me off so much.
I think Scott's time is up, to be honest. Fanaroff gave me
chills. I thought he did beautifully. Nikko - he has a beautiful
voice, but I just don't care about him. Mario could have done
better. He did great, but he should have done what Anwar did
and fucking put his ENTIRE SOUL into it.
I also need to throw out there - it's fucking bullshit that
Janay is still in this competition. It's probably you same
people who voted for Constantine. Come ON! If you like to
look at them so much, just take a fucking picture, but STOP
putting the rest of us through this agony. Janay??? Are you
serious? This girl is one clench away from pissing in her
pants. I can't handle this. She's SO not ready for this, and
her being a bitch to Simon just makes me want to find the
hotel they're all staying in and give her a good slap.
Okay, anyway - I'm BORED. I'm really bored, people. I need
a hobby. I talk about this all the time, and I don't do much
about it. I'm antsy, and reading a book does not appeal to
me. Going out doesn't appeal to me (money). Small talk doesn't
appeal to me. But I'll tell you what I need - to laugh REALLY
hard. The kind of laugh when I don't even recognize the sounds
coming out of my mouth. I laugh a bunch, but right now I'm
in the mood to just curl into a ball and clutch my stomach
in attempt to reduce the pain from laughing SO hard.
Everything I wrote above I wrote yesterday, but I forgot to
post. But since I'm watching the girls sing tonight, I'm going
to comment on them. Amanda - same thing. So pretty. Great
range and control. Fun performer. I'm NOT excited about her,
and I think I JUST figured out why - she's a nice girl, but
I think JUST a nice girl. I don't like people just because
they're nice. It's not enough. I like people that have a little
bit of an edge - something silly, something dark, something
dry, somethingy witty. I think she's just...nice. And that
doesn't interest me.
Janay - COME THE FUCK ON, PEOPLE. PLEASE END THIS. DO NOT
VOTE FOR HER. She's terrible. She does not belong here. Sure,
she can do shit I can't - I'm not denying that. But COME ON!!!!
You really think she's good enough to continue on here?
Carrie - still love her, got chills. She DID sound nervous
for the first time, and she did pick a song too safe. She
needs to talk to Anwar and figure out how to tap into her
soul. She's forgetting how much she loves music, and she's
thinking about the competition. It's no way to win. She's
got to remember how much she loves to sing for herself.
Vonzell - I love that girl, but I don't think she was very
impressive tonight. Wasn't great.
Nadia - this was the best I've seen her since her first audition.
Hair up on my arms the whole time. Everything about that performance
was fabulous. Just SOOOO great. So great in every way. I absolutely
loved it.
Lindsey - what I DO like about her is that her belting range
is really low. I like how someone can be considered successful
if they don't have a huge belting range. I checked those notes
she sang, and I could hit them without effort, and I always
think of having a debilitatingly low belt. Everything Simon
said was right - just missing something.
Mikalah - super shaky start, I'm worried. Shit, this was not
a good song for her. It's not showing one damn thing. Shit,
i'm worried. I love her. She's one of my favorites, and I
don't think it was a good idea. I think she's so afraid of
being annoying now, that she's subdued. She's lost the attitude.
I'm still voting for her because I cannot wait to see what
else she can do. She's fabulous, and Simon was absolutely
correct. Again.
Jessica - this chick is solid, I can't lie. She sounds like
a recording every time. Not a quiver in her voice. I like
her. Man, I'm going to vote for her and Nadia this week -
this is new for me.
Okay, I'm bored...with everything. I'm going to bed, and I
hope that something exciting (in a good/fun way) happens tomorrow.
