American Idol: Season 8!

[Computer Magic]

The top three for the next three weeks make it. Then 12 are picked to sing the wild card where 3 will be picked. I think the judges pick those three, but a little unsure on that part.

Singers, Danny and Tatiana then Noop Dog....I knew Tatiana could sing, but she was over the top when not singing.

I think Danny will go far this season.

 

[TurboCaroline]

Guy: Danny; Girl:Alexis and I'm unsure about the 3rd one. Unfortunately it may be Tatiana. I hate to say it but she was one of the better ones last night..:dazzle: Stevie and Casey murdered their songs...:hurl: Overall it was a pretty bad night...:shrug:

I think that Danny will win the entire thing. I don't think he is the best singer but he has that "it" factor. The girl with the Pink hair will be the top female and the third from the group I think will be the guy who works on the oil well, I don't think he did that great of a job but he has gotten a lot of air time so people know his story and will vote for him.

Whew! Was scared there for a second. Bummer that Anoop didn't get through, but hopefully he'll make it back in the wild card.

 

[imagineer boy]

When do they announce the wild cards?

 

[Fantasmic!329]

Whew! Was scared there for a second. Bummer that Anoop didn't get through, but hopefully he'll make it back in the wild card.

See, I didn't like Anoop at all. :lol: :shrug:

 

[Victoria]

I am very happy with tonight's top 3. They were definitely the best in their group. I think Anoop might have a shot in the wild card show. Also, I have a feeling Danny will probably win this entire thing without even having to try very hard. :lol:

Hard to not vote for Ricky Braddy, since hes from the town I work in!!! And my DW is his parent's pharmacist...took 1/2 hour to get first vote in on his number...good sign.

I love Ricky! I doubt he'll be back for wild card though because we all know they only want ratings hogs...

Jasmine- Not totally horrendous but very very forgettable.

Matt G- OMG my ears. What a complete disaster. :dazzle:

Jeanine- Another train wreck. It sounded like bad drunken karaoke

Nick/Norman- What an absolute insult to all the other contestants...and human beings in general.

Allison- After tonight, I really like her. She was one I didn't know existed until now though.

Kris- He took on a MJ song (usually a kiss of death) and he didn't totally destroy it. I like him.

Megan- Didn't blow me out of the water, but at least I didn't want to cry after her performance.

Matt B- Good singer. Horrific song. Major naptime. :snore:

Jesse- I think she is capable of a lot more than she did tonight.

Kai- I liked him. He ranks right up there with Allison for me tonight. She was more fun to watch, but I think he is a better technical singer.

Mishavonna- I absolutely loathe this song. She sang it well, but she makes some really odd faces when she is singing.

Adam- Awesome performance. It is abundantly clear that he is a professional. Not sure if it makes it a fair fight. :shrug:


I think Adam, Allison, and Kai will make it through. :shrug:

Norman Gentle is the only performance I remember....I just just spent the past 15 minutes watching the songs only. What a terrible show! Norman all the way.

 

[imagineer boy]

I say Kris, Allison, and Adam are in the top 3.

Many of the others just chose such safe songs.

And for the Nick/Norman freak... I was cringing during the whole thing. Not funny, just weird and bizarre. I really do pray that he doesn't make it through, or he WILL become the next Sanjaya.

 

[nibblesandbits]

I know I'm totally in the minority and it would be a trainwreck if he were to get the votes, but I am one who is actually really entertained by Norman. He is absolutely a riot...and he can sing...might not have proved that tonight, but he has a voice. He's like a Taylor Hicks style performer on crack! :lol:

As for who I think is going through...definitely Adam...he's a shoe in...he's amazing. That last note was sick. I don't think he's a ringer though. I think he's just been in a lot of theatrical productions.

Allison for the girls. She was hands down the best girl tonight. She wasn't on my radar until tonight either...but she definitely got put there.

As for the last spot...it's really a toss up for me. I think Kai, Mishovanna, Kris, Megan, or Norman...yes Norman (you heard the audience...they do like him. They were so on board with him...listen back to the performance again if you disagree. And on a night like tonight where there weren't many memorable performances, he's got a good shot, I think) have a shot at being in the last spot. It really is a complete toss up and I don't know which way it's gonna go. No one person stood out enough to really figure out who it's going to be. All of them (well, maybe not Norman, but I've discussed that one now) sang decently.

 

[Monty]

My sense is Adam, Megan and Kris go through.

Sadly, although Adam was by far the best of the night, not one of them was blowing me away. If anyone who goes forward from this group wins it all I'll be amazed because none of them showed anything worthy of it. That was the worst single night I recall in the 8 seasons.

 

[imagineer boy]

Mmm... I'd have to say that back in season 6 when the top 12 guys performed, that would have to be the worst semi-finals round I think. Last night's was definately close to taking that honor though....

All I can say is that group 3 had better bring it. I think the majority of them really are talented, but its really been song choice that's been dragging so many of them down.

I agree with what you said about Norman. He cracked me up...BUT he is not right for this competition. Now other people are going to try to audition next year and do just as he did...

I think Adam and Allison did the best by far...the next one with the highest vote I'm not sure about. The judges loved Megan but I wasn't as impressed. She had these spastic movements on stage that were very strange. I guess I don't listen to the type of music that her voice would be suited for...:shrug:

 

[palmage]

I'm absolutley all about Megan....

 

[hcswingfield]

I was kind of surprised none of the judges told the girl who did "Bette Davis Eyes" she shouldn't do a song that is so identified with Kim Carnes. If it had been a Whitney or Celine song.......

 

[minnie64]

this show is so fake! I went to the auditions over the summer , and before anyone even tries out for randy paula or simon they have to go through a whole process of auditioning for producers, and if you make it past them you then have to go to another producer who deciedes if you have an intersting enough "life story" to be put through to potientally be on the show. I was told that I " was very talented and had an amazing voice, but wasnt right for what they were looking for this season",Yet the person next to me dressed in a lime green suit who sang awfully clearly there as a joke got put through to the next round.These producers turned away unbelievable singers, singers far more talented than anyone who is on the show right now. Basically it should not be called an open talent competion it is a money making scam.:fork:

 

[imagineer boy]

Well, if you're not an interesting person, even with a good voice no one would care to vote for you. :shrug:

Anyways, I'm happy Norman didn't make it through. I was getting worried there for a bit. And I'm happy my top 3 was pefectly accurate!:lol:

Well, you were good with the whole guessing game last year...:lookaroun

I'm also one who's glad Kris made it. He's a cute guy and he really has a good voice. America got that whole vote right, I think. (Even if I was a little bummed Norman didn't make it...:lookaroun I knew when he was up against Adam, he didn't stand a chance.)
