American Idol - 2/12 & 2/13 - Welcome to Hollywood!

That’s twice now I’ve seen Grace Kelly on an Idol show. Liked them both.

Has Carly been eating a Blue Razzberry Blow Pop?

Okay, I loved Josiah’s version of Grace Kelly more than I liked his audition. And Danny is just…amazingly good.

It totally skeeves me out when the contestants don’t brush their teeth and tongues before performing. Usually they’ve obviously been drinking Coke.

They do have a song list, and IIRC, it’s pretty long and varied. I read an interview with the Castro-looking dude from last season that said it had something like 100 songs on it.

That was the first time I’ve heard it on Idol. Who did it before ‘Van Down By the River’?

That was ballsy of him to do that song and I liked it.

Sorry, it was on the Swedish version of Idol (which is, ambiguously, called only Idol).

So, did they get rid of the big room? You know when they tell huge rooms of contestants that they need to go home?

I can’t decide if them changing the competition every season during Hollywood week is sorta better, since the contestants all start from the same page with no preconceived ideas.

OTOH, change is bad, waaah.

I think that comes a bit later in the process.

S^G

Blond single momma has no idea what the song “Summertime” is about.

I can’t stand the black single daddy either.

Can either of them even spell affectation?:dubious:

Ooh, I know, I’ll just a vocal coach that has been thru this exact process and failed, that’ll work!

She must have eaten the french toast.

Wait…no groups?

Awwwww…no group sings? I love group sings.

After last year with Chris Sligh and Blake Lewis, I was looking forward to the group sing.

Damn.

16 year old Bryan Adams? What the heck was so special about that? Seriously? I must get my hearing checked.

Hmm, maybe we should call him Jokerboy, that cheery 16 yo who kareoked his way through that Bryan Adams song.

The group sing being gone sucketh.

I like Syesha, finally someone uses the background singers!

Don’t they want to know if someone can sing harmony?

Wow, “Bohemian Rhapsody” was pretty incredible, although he didn’t really try for the highest notes.

And can compromise, be a team member, blend??
