At least the Aussie seems to sincerely appreciate the Beatles. Good performance. I’m surprised he didn’t play his guitar, though. ---

WTF? It SUCKED. And it wasn’t in tune. He missed some notes. That was complete shit. ---

[QUOTE=Biggirl] The only thing that’s gonna save Michael John is David H. [/QUOTE] Agreed. MJ has been nothing but meh for the last few weeks. ---

> [@Rachael Rage](#): > > Early prediction: David H (“I Saw Her Standing There”) goes home this week. Nah, I think Ramiele will be. You missed her; she was BORING. Hernandez was at least energetic. Which isn’t exactly a compliment. I do not understand what the judges see in Michael Johns to put him in the top 12. He has that goat-like vibrato that just irritates the crap out of me, and not much vocal talent that I’ve ever noticed. Why do they keep saying he can do better? He hasn’t done anything even remotely good thus far! ---

I was only half-listening, but it seemed pretty meh. I wish Paula would shut up. ---

That’s a better interpretation **Rhubarb** and you’re probably right, I was snarking too much because she’s not living up to the adoration I had for her in the beginning. I forgot the Aussie was still in this, that can’t bode well for the poor fella. Nice tone to his voice, couldn’t understand two-thirds of the words he was singing, but he’s pretty and interesting and I want to hear more. ---

I wouldn’t say it sucked, but there is no way he did that song justice. Not even close. ---

Oh, God, make it stop. Yodelly “Eight Days a Week.” This is excruciating. This is the worst perfomance of the season so far. What utter, unlistenable dreck. What callous disrespect for the material. ---

Instead of waterboarding, we should use Kristy Lee Cook’s performance of “Eight Days a Week.” ---

The badness of “Eight Days of Week” actually made it entertaining. What a fucked up arrangement… and it was weirdly fast. ---

Oh honey, no. Just no, don’t do that to 8 days a week. The band sounded like it was on crack.
