American Idol 4/4 & 4/5: Country

No, but after bantering with the judges Ryan looked at the camera and said he said one of the judges has one.

That was very nice by Paris. Good choice, and a bit harder than the other songs she’s sung.

I didn’t even recognize him. Atleast Barry Manilow looked kind of like Barry Manilow.

I’m bored by everyone tonight.

Oh, puke. Ace is playing to the camera in rehearsals? I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate him.

Liked that Taylor sang Country Roads, as I’m a WV girl, but boy was it boring.

What on earth was Mandisa wearing?? Oh my it made her look twice as big as normal. Those stripes and those jeans! And Shania?

Elliott was great, IMO. I liked that he didn’t sing it just like Garth Brooks. The best in the first 4 performers.

Paris was straining. I like this song, but I thought she didn’t do well. Simon’s judging is cracking me up.
(and I kinda like Seacrest’s beard)

Did Simon really mean that or did he just want to make Paula feel like a dick?

I thought Paula was actually right. It seemed like Paris was struggling and she didn’t have her usual energy. She didn’t suck but I think this just isn’t her genre.
Ace is hurting my ears.

Ow…that falsetto could cut through diamonds.

Heh, weird to have people boo at Paula…

And now Ace… I’m afraid of what he’ll do, please let him go out today…

You mean the glass with the straw is the flask?

Is Simon’s comment a compliment or a backstab?

It must really sound different in the studio. That falsetto was horrible. And he was making those ghastly faces again.

That’s the best Ace has done so far, IMO. Until the falsetto anyway.

I actually got to see the end of Taylor’s performance. I like that song and sing it all the time real loud. It annoys my family. Can’t say I especially liked what I saw of Taylor. Didn’t really like any one else, either. They all sound off and uninspired to me.

I guess it’s up to The Pickler to turn me on to country.

“It’s not an act, ah really am that stupid, y’all.”

I can’t really judge the performance because I can’t stand anything about her. It’s not really fair anyway because she’s right square in her box.

Am I the only one who thinks Simon’s kinda…hot?

Good job by Kelly… though I guess if she stunk it up tonight, it’d be kinda strange.

Though it is fun seeing someone so naive sing a song about a prostitute :D.

I went to post that Kellie kicked ass. And my computer went all kablooyee and I had to restart.

Still don’t want her to win.

Boring Chris, Boring.

Keith Urban owns this song, you can’t compare… though at least he sang something different.

Good job by Chris. He sang it straight instead of finding a Nine Inch Nails cover or something. …I’m kind of surprised that Simon didn’t like it.

Really? Damn, I miss that song by Kelly…

Good call from Simon… Although it was a good interpretation. The contestants know it, they’re being forced to pick songs they don’t really care for, therefore they are being safe.

Damn, I forgot what McPhee looked like when she doesn’t wear maternity clothing.

Thank you, Simon. We ARE bored and we DO deserve better.

That said, I thought Chris was way better than everybody else tonight, except for the end, which was sucky.
