Woot, it’s finally gotten to the voting part! I had an extra-busy day and it was so nice to finally get home and just sit down and marianate in the cheesiness, yay!
Nikko~ WTH was he wearing?! Good, for a Stevie impression, I wouldn’t have stopped conversing with my buddies in the kareoke bar to watch.
POTAB~ Loved the voice, noted the new jawbone-defining facial hair with a giggle. Good stage presence, beautiful singing, but I’m just not liking him. Either he’s got economy-sized baggage (my father never supported me, I’m not going to practice with my group since I don’t want to help anyone else make it, my goal as AI is to give my son a better life than I had) or he’s just slick and playing every sympathy card he can think of but he’s skeeving me. I so want to like him, too.
Bo~ yay! Awkward arrangement, and I desperately want to trim his split ends and introduce him to some quality hair product, but excellent job.
Anthony~ “Safe” might not perfectly describe it, but it was sorta rote, he’s got pipes but maybe was nervous?
Constantine~ Wanna quit making love to the camera with your eyes and just sing, poseur boy? I think he was betting on being the dark-horse rocker guy but Bo’s screwed up his plans. Very comfortable onstage and good at working it, but meh.
David~ eh, it was okay, good pitch but not a real moving performance.
Jared~ better than in the auditions, my expectations were low so I’m not sure if it was actually good.
Anwar~ what? that was it? I so expected more, that was very just okay.
Travis~ Oh my, he’s so pretty, whatta smile!! Very stylish and controlled and nice. Very Nice. whew
Judd~ well that was growly, and surprisingly monotone. Shades of JPL from last year, but yay for diversity, at least he’s not boyband or diva-y.
Joseph~ seems very mature compared to the rest of the group and what happened to all the consonants? Pretty voice, kinda intense but nice, except for tha’ lette’ droppin’ thin’ on almos’ ever’ wor’
Mario~ Quit telling us to come on, we’ll c’mon if’n we wanna c’mon dammit! But, otherwise, very fun even if the pitch was questionable.
