Final 10 - Gwen Stephani

Final 10 – Gwen Stephani

It is six minutes until show time. Gwen Stephani is to be on the Idol tonight and I am wondering what type of music she is going to coach the contestants on. HMMMMM. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy many of Gwen’s songs. I just don’t view her as an authority to the industry.


LeKisha: Let’s Dance
Another great performance by LeKisha. She looks great, sounds great. I like that she chose something other than a ballad. There hasn’t been anything she can’t sing so far. YOU GO GIRL!!!!

R: You did that like a true fly diva.
P: Donna Summer is not an easy artist and you did outstanding.
S: Love the big note at the end. Great vocal.

Chris S.: Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic

Why do they grab the mic stand and walk around? This isn’t even a rockin’ song. Chris’ performance did nothing for me. Not one of his better vocals. The whole thing just seemed off.

R: Good song choice but at a different tempo than the band.
P: Vocally sat really nice but gotta feel the beat.
S: I thought it was a mess. It was all over the place and different feel right.

Gina: I’ll Stand By You
Wow! Rocker chick did an outstanding job! I really enjoyed her performance. Great control on her vocals. This was the perfect song choice for Gina.

R: One of your best performances ever.
P: I love that you are improving every week. Best performance so far.
S: Wasn’t one of your best performances. . . it WAS your best.

Sanjaya “Guy Smiley”:

I HAVE TO NURSE THE BABY. I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FINISH THIS WEEK. IF SOMEONE ELSE WANTS TO FINISH THIS UP, PLEASE FEEL FREE.

How does this boy stay on the show? He is absolutely terrible! His hair was ridiculous. This Michael Jackson want-to-be is a joke.



Jordin
I guess she did okay but I wasn’t crazy about her song choice. Some of my disappointment with the song was due to the back up singers.

Phil
I REALLY did not like Phil this week. Not a good song choice. His vocals were alright but the performance just didn’t have any umph!

Chris R
Sucks! People are referring to him as Timberfake but my eleven year old says it should be TimberFLAKE.

Haley
Not a great performance this week. I still think she would do better singing on the soundtrack of a Disney animated film.

Melinda
This girl can sing. She brings it every week and has great stage presents. Of course, being a backup singer she has had experience of being in front of a crowd. I think she still seems shy when she is on stage, but that is a part of her appeal. I will be very disappointed if she does not make it to the finale.

I am obviously missing someone and have no clue off the top of my head who it could be. Must not have been a memorable performance. The top performers for me this week are: Melinda, LeKisha, Gina, and Blake.

The bottom two this week should be Sanjaya and Chris S.

It was Blake that you forgot. That was funny...you said you forgot someone and then said he was in your top 4. We will chalk it up to the new baby thing.

It is good to have you back with the Idol Chit Chat.

Sanjaya is just so awesome. He makes me want to go out and buy 40 CD's all performed by him, bring them home, throw open all the windows and turn the volume up so loudly that all my neighbors can partake in the joy that is....Sanjaya!

Oh, I know the Sanjaya comment came from my darling baby brother and you are a funny funny man. You gave me a chuckle!

Ang said...

Ha! Linda you are so right! DAAA! I was nursing when I was doing this originally so I will take the excuse. I really do like Blake. I don't always like to watch him but he has a nice voice. Who are your favs this season?

Linda said...

My favs this season are LaKisha, Melinda, and Jordin. For me, the rest are just average (some below average) in comparison.

Does anyone know what the theme is this week?
