    Re: *** American Idol: Season 9 ***

    Yes, that guy surprised me as well. Shania loved him. Noticed that ring on her finger. Wonder if she forgot about it.

    I'm mostly amazed with people that sing in a voice that is nothing like their own.

    So far I have agreed with the judges and their decisions. I also have agreed with Simon on every person he's said no to but the others have said yes. That sounds contradictory, but I'll explain.

    I know why Simon says no and can usually predict when he will, but I also know when someone has at least some talent. Simon doesn't want a project. I get that. But, I think American Idol should collect projects. They go through singing lessons for that reason. So with that girl that made it in on Randy's "decision", I think she has potential, but she will not win.
    "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

      I usually agree with Simon's decisions but he totally dropped the ball on Chris Daughtry. He thought he didn't have charisma and probablly wasn't a stand alone star and as a result said no.

          The guy who sang Tiny Tim is definitely, by far, my favorite audition of this season so far.

            That was hilarious!

            Simon's little outburst snicker was awesome, but I can't remember if it was for that audition or that one high-pitched black dude.

              A great group out of Orlando tonight. My favorite was Seth Rollins:

                The guy that got arrested last night is a complete tool.

                I've haven't really been impressed with the "good" singers or "bad" singers this season.

                The Hollywood results have already leaked out so I've been doing my best to avoid spoilers.

                  Van - I agree, i can't even remember any of the supposed "good" singers really. I mean no one has any personality yet from what i've seen. It is probably editing though, they seem to usually have the first few eps be more about the bad "joke" singers than anyone good.

                    I don't know, I'm really liking Mallorie Haley right now (girl from South Dakota). She sings with confidence, is good to look at, easy on the eyes, and is memorable.

                      I was happy to see someone other than Simon put Kara in her place.

                      Katy Perry: This isn’t a Lifetime movie, sweetheart

                      The first guest judge, Avril Lavigne, was useless.

                      It looks like America has run out of talent. We have a very weak group of singers so far.

                        I loved Andrew Garcia (couldn't care less about his back story though). Let me find a video of him singing if you haven't seen it.

                        And did I see Barney in the previews for tonight?



                        EDIT: Here you go. Singing starts at 1:47.

                            I liked Doogie Howser as the guest judge. He seem to take over the role as the main judge with the leading and closing questions. The Jonas brother was worthless.

                            I feel a feeling Dave will go far based on his condition. Scott lasted longer than he should have because he was blind and I see the same thing happening with Dave.

                                Man DFW was representing with all the beautiful ladies that got through.....too bad they didn't show any of them.

                                Hopefully there is a couple of really good people that they decided not to show, because honestly there are only a very small number that have really impressed me that they've shown.
