Idol Chatter: Week 1
Tuesday night marked what I call the beginning of American Idol, AKA the Vocal Visual Melting Pot. The contestants this year are all diverse and I love it. It began with performances by the men and was followed last night by the women, who seemed to have the edge this round. I’m just going to list the performers and their songs in order with a few comments thrown in. At the end, I will give my top and bottom 3 for each group. Please keep in mind, I am not expert. I’m just a chick who loves AI and likes sharing her opinions.
Men
1. Rudy Cardenas Free Ride
2. Brandon Rogers Rock With You
* professional background singer
3. Sundance Head Nights in White Satin
4. Paul "Barefoot" Kim Careless Whisper
5. Chris Richardson I don't Want to Be
6. Nick Pedro Now and Forever
* first one to do a good falsetto
7. Blake Lewis Somewhere Only We Know
*WOW!
8. Sanjaya Malakar Knocks Me Off My Feet
* youngest male contestant and it shows
9. Chris Sligh Typical
* love the hair and the Il Divo diss for Simon
10. Jared Cotter Back at One
11. A.J. Tablado Never Too Much
12. Phil Stacey These are the Moments
Woman
1. Stephanie Edwards How Come You Don't Call Me
* this girl came to win. great way to open the show
2. Amy Krebs I Can't Make You Love Me
3. Leslie Hunt (You Make Me Feel Like A) Natural Woman
4. Sabrina Sloan Never Loved a Man the Way that I Love You
5. Antonella Barba I Don't Want to Miss a Thing
6. Jordin Sparks Gimme One Reason
* youngest female contestant
7. Nicole Tranquillo Stay
8. Haley Scarnato It's All Coming Back to Me Now
9. Melinda Doolittle Since you Been Gone (not the Kelly Clarkson one)
10. Alaina Alexander Brass in Pocket
11. Gina Glockson All By Myself
*I agree with Simon and she did NOT hit that note
12. LaKisha Jones And I am Telling you, I'm Not Going
*this girl came to win too. great way to close the night.
So those are the contestants and the songs they Tuesday and Wednesday night. The results show will air tonight on FOX. I won't be tuning in (sorry FOX but The Office is on and I heart NBC Thursdays.) But here are the top 3 and bottom 3 from each set if I ran things.
Top 3 Men: A.J., Blake and Jared
Bottom 3 Men: Rudy, Sanjaya, and Chris R.
Top 3 Women: Stephanie, Melinda and LaKisha (sistuhs are runnin' thangs)
Bottom 3 Women: Antonella, Amy, and Leslie
I'll find out tomorrow how good I am at predicting the future.
Happy viewing and tune in next week.

So the results have come out and I was 2 for 4. Not bad. Straight from AmericanIdol.com: Tonight, we bid adieu to Paul Kim, Amy Krebs, Nicole Tranquillo, and Rudy Cardenas.

WWFS,
LOL!!! You are a complete nut, but I love it. You must know my disdain for the show and many other "reality" television, so naturally, I don't know who these people are. I can say that American Idol is the only thing that gets my family to sit down, shut up, and watch the tele like normal human beings. That being said, I hope it airs forever. As for "The Office", I wish it aired every friggin day.
I'm sure your predictions were dead on. You have more musical talent than the judges... especially Paula. (The "sistuhs" remark had me cracking up.)
