TAYLOR HICKS ROCKS AMERICAN IDOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I met my husband when we were both working on a West Texas newspaper. He was in circulation, and I first seriously noticed him when I was walking through the mailroom and he was doing the dirty bop to
"Waterloo". Made quite an impression.

Taylor is much younger, of course, and probably has no notion of what the 'dirty bop' is. But that's his style just the same. Smile

It was that skillful horizontal bop that made me fall for my first wife....

Kicky poses an interesting question--and this is what really fascinates me about Idol (I apologize for my sick impusle to deconstruct this show about once a week).

But I don't think there's any real animosity between the judges, what with their hefty salaries. I don't think there's friendship there either. Funny, I saw Randy on the Ellen Degeneres show (shameful confession of the week--I'm holding a lighter under my armpits right now as punishment) and Ellen commented that Coke must be sponsoring the show because the judges are always drinking it during the show.

Randy: "Yes, and I always have diet Coke in my cup. Always."

Shameless plug.

Ellen: "What's Paula drinking during the show?"

Randy: (silence)

Seacrest is so transparent though we know he's a real-life douche. I loved when Simon essentially called him a phony a few weeks ago. I could almost see Seacrest screaming at the producers after the show: "I will not be disrespected! I demand a Twinkie and a blow job NOW!"

but garg.... if wanting a twinkie and blowjob makes you a douchebag... then shouldn't we all be smelling like vinegar and cream filling?

Right again, BVT.

Damn you're good!

My honey calls him See-CRUST. He's annoying. He doesn't have any charisma. Listening to him speak is like listening to fingernails screech across a chalk board. I have no idea how Ryan can keep his job season after season, but I don't watch the show to see him. The show is successful in spite of the poor choice of host. It's the amazing contestants that keep the viewers interested.

The top five--in the order of my favorites:

1) Chris
2) Katharine
3) Elliot
4) Paris
5) Taylor

I wouldn't be disappointed if any of the top four in the list won this year. I'm NOT a Taylor fan. I hope Taylor goes next week.

It was pleased that Simon apologized to Katharine for trashing her performance.

I am really looking forward to tonight's show. They will each be singing two songs: one from the year of their birth and one of the Billboard's Top Ten.

Now is the time for everyone to bring out the big guns. I think if Taylor doesn't get out there and really show his voice, Debra may just get her wish. I personally would like to see Taylor, Chris, and Katherine in the top three. I doubt that Taylor would take the Idol title, but I do feel he is one of the top three.

Katherine is really hanging in there. I give that woman credit. She's tough.

See everyone tonight!

I have decided there must be something wrong with me. Elliott and Paris just sucked! Chris was okay but I wasn't that impressed.

I think I am just getting old. Crying or Very sad

Katherine, what happened girl? That key was not for her at all! I think she could have done an awesome job had it been in a different key.

TAYLOR! HE'S THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS UP DANCING IN MY LIVING ROOM! He may not be the best singer, but he's one heck of an entertainer!!!!!!!!!!

Round two coming up! Laughing

Elliot finally found his groove! A Michael Bublais song was a perfect choice and he was awesome!

Paris, sorry, I just don't care for her.

Katherine was much better the second song.

Chris is losing his voice. He is such a good singer!

I love Taylor's softer side! That was beautiful!

So, what did y'all think?

Okay, after a Mountain Zone viewing and then a nap--was up at 3 am this morning--tonight's performance was interesting.

First the music itself was better than I expected, but I still think some of the song choices were lacking.

I have said from the beginning and I still think the best voice in the competition is Taylor's and I think Taylor did entertain tonight. And I think he is improving bit by bit, week by week.

Elliott also has a great voice and he is thoroughly likeable, but he is adding so much vibrato it was annoying tonight.

Kat and Chris I think peaked some weeks ago and while both remain consistenty good, I don't see either getting better.

No matter what happens to Paris, she will have it made in the music world, but her song choices tonight put her at risk. It will be her or Elliott I think who will leave tomorrow.

I agree Foxfyre. I see Paris leaving.

Elliott or Paris will go. All the singers were hoarse and had voice. problems. Every one of them. Chris' was most obvious because of his song choice on the second song.

Chris or Katherine will win. Taylor hasn't a snowballs chance in hell girls.... sorry.

I think Katherine has the best voice in the competetion. The most versatile and the most control. Chris is a rocker, Elliott is a white soul singer, Taylor an A+ bar singer but a bar singer none the less. Katherine could do anything.

I still want the rocker to win it. Twisted Evil

I listened on our band radio so I didn't actually see the performances and they all became wall paper to me. None of them really captured my attention or projected any charisma. When I hear Sting, Elvis Costello, Blacked Eyed Peas or even Beyonce on the radio my ears perk up because of how they project their personalities into their songs, none of these contestants seem to have that power. I think a good marketing machine could make a star out of my howling bulldog.

I think Chris will win it unless he f's it up in the next few weeks. I think Paris will go tonight. I really like Elliot, but I don't think he'll win.

0 Replies

I actually don't think Chris will win. I think he has been slipping lately.

I hope Paris goes home tonight and though it may be an unpopular opinion, I think Kat is one of the best in the competition and the most marketable, and I hope she wins.

I think Taylor & Elliot will do well though...

I'm beginning to think Taylor could win this thing.

<Nothing like putting the whammy on the poor guy. He'll go tonight, now that I said that.>

0 Replies

Oh, if that's the case, then I agree with Kicky. Taylor could win this thing.

0 Replies

You bite your tongue KickyCan! Taylor is a real entertainer. I think that is what his edge is. Laughing

0 Replies

He can't bite his tongue and smoke at the same time. And that cigarette never leaves his mouth. He has put the whammy on Taylor . . . and we all know what that means . . . muhahahaha.

0 Replies

I'm actually pretty surprised he's even still in this thing at this point. I thought he'd be gone long ago.

I REALLY think he's got a chance to win this thing!

Debra! Well, it's getting very interesting to say the least. I only know that when Taylor is on, the audience goes crazy, you want to dance, and that's what it's about!
