Adam is clearly the best of this lot. He’s the real deal.
I think Adam is a little sharp.
Still the guy’s got some life and originality in him. I think he’ll have some potential on weeks when he isn’t saddled with such a crappy theme.
I think Adam’s great…but I hope he has a performance soon in which he doesn’t yell at me.
I think Paula actually has an accurate insight underneath all her babble. Adam is practically engineered to be an AI contestant. Themore I see of the guy, the more I like him. He manages to be perfect for this show, yet original and creative at the same time.
It’s like having Beatles week and hearing “Octopus’ Garden”.
It’d be interesting to see an openly gay guy go deep in the competition.
Is Adam wearing a tan shirt underneath the green one, or is he just really… really… smooth?
At least the Beatles wrote it! I like the song, anyway, but I guess that’s beside the point. It’s more like having Beatles week and hearing “Roll Over Beethoven.” You’ve got a good catalog there, you don’t need to do a duvet (i.e., cover on a cover.)
This is a better example…“Stop and Take the Time to Smell the Roses”.
Yes, I’m quoting myself.
Is Adam openly gay, though, or just obviously gay?
The latter.
I guess with photos of him tongue kissing another dude all over the Internet, it’s both.
Oh yeah, ‘doing it for the kid’ always requires dressing like a hooker and singing a song about… a hooker. Great role model, mom.
She’s screwing up the chorus of this song. She’s totally losing the sharpness on the timing tricks that make it interesting.
Simon nailed it.
Please dial carefully, kiddies- don’t want to accidentally run up mom and dad’s phone bill on sex lines.
Why does every girl who’s ever on this show always have a fucking kid?
I’m pretty sure that not EVERY girl on this show has a “fucking” kid. :rolleyes:
I wasn’t aware of hm covering it. From the J5 era, if at all, I’m sure.
Notably, I sing karaoke. Not that song, of course, but when a participant does get up to perform it, the title card on the screen shows up as “Rockin’ Robin”, below which is the legend “M. Jackson,” as though he had been the writer of the song.
I’ve always assumed that this meant that he bought all rights to the song, back in the olden days, when he was rich, and buying everything from the Beatles catalog to the Elephant Man’s corpse.
Impressions during the recap:
Scott and Jasmine were even worse than I’d noticed during their performances. Anoop and Megan were just as bad as they seemed the first time through.
Kris seems like a dark horse to really go far. He has something likable, and more talent than we’re really seen so far.
Every time I hear that song now I think of Andy’s (on The Office) cell phone.
