WTF Idol?

[emmagrant01]

I am finding myself disagreeing with almost everything the judges say tonight. What the hell?

I LOVED the performances by Blake, LaKisha, Gina, and (Force help me) Sanjaya, and I thought Chris R. was only so-so. :-P

ETA: Melinda made me cry. *sniffs* I LOVE HER SO MUCH.

Blake was so great! My problem with Chris is that his voice sounds SO much like Justin Timberlake's, which is not a good thing since Justin has sort of a reedy, goat-esque voice, but only about 1% of Justin's charisma. And he doesn't dance. Pshaw.

Ahaha. I bet Justin is cringing every time they compare Chris R. to him. :-D

Justin's on tour and I'm pretty sure he doesn't watch AI, just because it's the kind of thing that would drive him crazy. He likes to talk about how hard he worked to get where he is, so someone basically winning a record contract? Not his idea of a good thing.

...but he probably watches in secret. And makes fun of the people he thinks are ugly. He probably likes Blake the best and is mad jealous of Blake's superior beatboxing :P

I actually heard that Justin hates AI but can't help watching.

Ahaha. If Justin can beatbox I might love him a little. :-D

There's a much better example from Live at Madison Square Garden, but I couldn't find it on youtube. Wait for the end...and you get Justin beatboxing. Justin LOVES beatboxing. He's not especially good at it though :P

Aw, dead-BeeGee tribute, with intro by the late Ed Bradley. How cool!

[phaballa.livejournal.com]

NSync did about 5 different Bee Gees medleys, for some reason. I think because Chris wanted solos. (Chris is the tiny one with the very high voice). This is actually my least favorite. Um, and Backstreet did this ridiculously wonderful Beach Boys tribute...



Which made me go, "Oh wow, they can actually sing!"

[frances-veritas.livejournal.com]

Ah! I've never seen this one.

*cheers*

*reverts back to her inner teeny bopper*

Isn't it good! Oh, AJ. I'm glad he's sober now. And always should wear a hat. Another Bee Gees medley, because I do love the Bee Gees...

[frances-veritas.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is good!

I'm getting goosebumps. I forgot how much I love me my boy bands.

And I'm glad A.J.'s sober, too. *loves on him* And, yes, hats on A.J. is always a good thing. :-D

[frances-veritas.livejournal.com]

Omg, Nysnc. Ahaha. *tries not to cringe* :-P I was a Backstreet Boys fan myself. But I'm glad Justin is doing his solo thing now. To me he's always been Nysnc. It was like who are the other members of that group again? :-P He's a really good performer.

And, beatboxing is not that bad.

And, uh, this performance reminded me of a BSB one.



Sorry, couldn't help myself. :-D

Backstreets good too, I like them all! NSync has been doing Bee Gees medleys forever... they started doing them in Germany, I think, back when BSB and NSync and, um, god, everyone was in Europe because the US was all about the grunge.

[frances-veritas.livejournal.com]

Now U.S. is all about, er, not really good, shrieky punk music. I think I miss the boy bands.

I'm posting all this on my journal now. I've gotten all fangirly about them all over again. :-P I forgot how much I used to love them all.

[phaballa.livejournal.com]

Awww! *draws heart* I know, though--I really wish I could enjoy Panic! At the Disco's music because they're so cute and teeny and pocket-sized. They're like a boyband, with pesky instruments and no dancing. So uh, not like a boy band at all. Well, they wear makeup and ridiculous costumes...

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I agree. He sounds like Justin, but not as good. I guess I don't get what the judges see in him, you know?

[phaballa.livejournal.com]

He might be a lot more charismatic in person. Like, there are definitely people I've seen on TV and thought, "EH" but then seen them live and been blown away. That, and they don't want to end up with another unmarketable lump. Chris could be easily molded, that's for sure.
