American idol 4/13 to 4/14

We’re down to 8, right? I’m sure the girls plus Casey, Jacob, Paul, and Stefano will be going home over the next several weeks, more or less in that order.

I think James and Scotty have the best chance at being the top two.

I hope you’re right.

I’m disappointed Scotty didn’t sing “Everybody’s Talkin’ at Me.” But I’m guessing he might have gotten squicked out (or thought his fans might get squicked out) by “Midnight Cowboy,” which is after all notorious for being the only X-rated flick to win the Best Picture Oscar (it later got downgraded to an R, but still), not to mention the fact that Jon Voight plays a gigolo in it.

Judge 1: Wow, I loved it!!

Judge 2: I so totally loved it.

Judge 3: Who loved it? This judge!

:rolleyes:

Then again, Haley sang “Call Me” from “American Gigolo.”

I’m just getting started, timeshifting. Paul must have sounded MUCH better in person than on TV, because I thought it was really, really off-key.

Catching up on DVR,

Hey Paul,

The Riddler Called, he wants his sports-jacket back.

NFM

Did J-Lo say that Stefano was “the shit”?

I know Haley is beyond imperfect, but her enthusiasm is infectious. She and James might just get all my votes.

Call it, Heavy Metal noise!!!

OMG, that might just be all my votes for my man James with Zak Wylde!!!

OMG James! I’ve got a huge freakin’ smile on my face right now. :smiley:

Maybe he was ‘squicked out’ because George Costanza sang verses of the song on a Seinfeld.

Casey. Wow. Wow wow wow. You made the absolute right choice.

I think I just saw Jacob’s uvula. Best glory note on this show since David Cook on “Billie Jean.”

I didn’t want to like James, but that was really awesome. He’s really reaching new places with vocal control–earlier it seemed like he was a bad version of Lambert, but that was just before he got on the show and was allowed to do an actual rock vocal. Lots of great performances tonight. Plus, his videotaped interview was all sorts of hilarious. That dickhead producer deserves a smackdown, and I’m already predicting the “Give Metal A Chance” poster in the crowd next week.

Paul or Haley will be going home. I’m kinda hoping for Haley…I totally want to see all the girls go home before any guys do, because that’s just funny as hell.

Paul is so fricking gone.

He went first, so his performance was forgotten by the end, and with the replay of his “Rockin’” song coming on the heels of “Heavy Metal”…wow, it really showcased how laughably weak he really is.

Sammy Hagar’s Heavy Metal was right in James’s wheelhouse. Other than him, everyone else left this season is utterly forgettable. Paul has moments that I think he’s cool, but tonight was not one of them.

Paul was…zzzzz. . Sorry, I dropped off there trying to describe it. I forgot about it while I was watching it. Bo-ring. His attitude transcends to the audience? I don’t think that word means what S-Tyl thinks it means.

Lauren - boring.

Scotty - I didn’t expect him to suck so much on a country song. That was probably the pitchiest I’ve heard him.

Stefano - Oh, sorry, I forgot to keep listening to him.

I really liked Durbin sticking to his guns and telling that fuckhead producer to stuff it. It was so great to not only hear a metal song on this show, but to see a bona fide metal guitar god playing along.

Too bad the asshole, music-raping douche-cocks that do the mixing still had Zack Wilde’s guitar mixed down so low. Jeff Beck was right to cancel on these pricks.

But it was truly priceless seeing Zak Wylde and James Durbin standing next to tiny little Ryan Seacrest. Too fucking funny.
