I also would like to know who in their right mind is voting for Chikeze.....He has less of a chance of winning this thing than any eliminated contestant....

That sucked. I think that going first absolutely killed Asia, nobody remembers who went first. I still have my shares of Ramiele at $7 left and I am thinking of selling to try and get what I can out of it and re-invest it in somebody else.

BDB, are you going to hang with your shares of her? I really cannot see her getting to the Top 4 or even Top 6. She is a robot up there and is living off of her looks.

Who would be a good value now?


My two cents.

been busy and utterly uninterested in idol this season. they can claim its their greatest, but imo, season 5 was by far the best. theres some good talent here, but not many "stars"

more beatles songs tonight.....i guess its better than dionne warwick night, but come on. this show would be ten million times better if they could sing whatever the fck they want.

i'm sorry to say this show has officially jumped the shark at least in my mind. i struggle to watch it. maybe because my two favorite people from this season didn't even make top 12.


tonight from mjs blog:

Amanda Overmyer - ?Back in the Ussr?
Kristy Lee Cook - ?You?ve Got To Hide Your Love Away?
David Archuleta - ?Long and Winding Road?
Michael Johns - ?A Day in the Life? - Fabulous
David Cook - ?Day Tripper? - Peter Frampton style with Vox box
Brooke White - ?Here Comes the Sun? No piano or guitar - Danced a little.
Carly Smithson - ?Blackbird? - ?Blew me away.? Nailed it. Tears.
Jason Castro - ?Michelle? - Beautiful. No guitar. Great audience interaction.
Syesha Mercado - ?Yesterday? - Overdid it.
Chikezie - ?I?ve Just Seen A Face? - Pulled out a harmonica
Ramiele Malubay - ?I Should Have Known Better?


im still sitting on the shares i have an haven't done much except added 50 carlys.

i'm of the opinion that the final two will be david cook and carly with carly winning it all. not so sure about david cook standing next to her, but im pretty sure as of now carly wins it all.


some last longers i played this week:

carly smithson -190 to last longer than brook x 7

david cook -110 to last longer than the stoner x 5

ramiele malubay +145 to last longer than the australian x 3

still have the field at + $ over the midget x 10



gl

also if nobody watched the next great american band, the band the clark brothers who won who are absolutely great will be doing idol gives back and one of them plays tonight with someone. i think david cook. these guys really are good.

I dont believe for a minute that tattoo skank was in the bottom 3. I think they are just trying to pimp people to vote for her.

The place I eat luch almost everyday has Musak or something over the soundsystem...every day I hear her singing "Alone" ...they are really pushing her..

The only real observations for me were that Archuleta was again terrific, and Brooke was awful. I did not like Carly's performance, and hated Mercado's overdone Yesterday.

Johns should not have tried to go over the top with 1.5 minutes of A Day in the Life. That is a tough song period, and although I give him credit for degree of difficulty, I think he is making it really tough on himself.

Came across this, in wondering what was going on tonight. Post anything interesting (for those of us that care, that is...:SIB ) going into tonight. I'm scared about the rumored return of a couple Idols previously voted off, as the Wild Card scenario this season. VERY happy with who has been tossed so far.

I have no idea what they are actually doing, just found this on a "Spoiler" site:

Idol Birth Year - 80?s Redux? What should the Idols Sing
Published March 24th, 2008 in American Idol and Season 7.

Songs from the Year You Were Born is the theme this week?the kids will be singing songs from their Birth Year. Looking at the list, it?s going to be 80?s week redux. What songs should the Idols choose this week? Check out the list and tell us what you think. (list thanks to cheese):

Brooke White (1983)
David Archuleta (1990)
Carly Smithson (1983)
David Cook (1982)
Ramiele Malubay (1987)
Chikezie (1985)
Syesha Mercado (1987)
Jason Castro (1987)
Kristy Lee Cook (1984)
Michael Johns (1978)

wild card is only for who joins them as part of their nationwide tour. NO idols kicked off are coming back to compete on the show. A couple will sing at the Idol Gives Back show and then fans can vote who they want on the tour with the other 10 finalists. Like anyone gives a fck.


It is year you were born week:

David Archuleta - December 28, 1990 (#1 Hits of 1990)
Jason Castro - March 25, 1987 (#1 Hits of 1987)
Chikezie Eze - September 11, 1985 (#1 Hits of 1985)
David Cook - December 20, 1982 (#1 Hits of 1982)
Kristy Lee Cook - January 14, 1984 (#1 Hits of 1984)
Michael Johns - October 20, 1978 (#1 Hits of 1978)
Ramiele Malubay - September 6, 1987 (#1 Hits of 1987)
Syesha Mercado - January 2, 1987 (#1 Hits of 1987)
Carly Smithson - September 12, 1983 (#1 Hits of 1983)
Brooke White - June 2, 1983 (#1 Hits of 1983)



I find myself really not caring at all about Idol this year. I don't like anyone left. To me this is the 2nd most boring year ever next to last year. I guess I'm just tired of stupid themes.

Whatever,

I dunno, BDB, I am enjoying this year more. I agree the theme thing is getting tired - but like this night, there are a lot of songs to pick from. I think this separates the troops a bit, people with a smart sense of themselves and what they can do with an arrangement. I did a little homework (bored a bit today) and came up with these possibles - from top Billboard Charts, and digging deeper on those that I couldn't match up at all. Of course, it would depend on what songs Idol has approval to do, too. How about these randome guesses/possibilities? See if I hit any.

Brooke White (1983) Total Eclipse Of The Heart - Bonnie Tyler, Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) - Eurythmics

David Archuleta (1990) How Am I Supposed To Live Without You - Michael Bolton, Blaze Of Glory - Jon Bon Jovi, Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice (Had to imagine him doing this one...lol., Epic - Faith No More...(Just Kidding, I love this song.)

Carly Smithson (1983) Total Eclipse Of The Heart - Bonnie Tyler, Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) - Eurythmics

David Cook (1982) Hurts So Good - John Cougar, Eye Of The Tiger - Survivor, Who Can It Be Now? - Men at Work, (Oh) Pretty Woman - Van Halen

Ramiele Malubay (1987) La Bamba - Los Lobos, (I Just) Died In Your Arms - Cutting Crew, Lean On Me - Club Nouveau

Chikezie (1985) Careless Whisper - Wham!, The Power Of Love - Huey Lewis & The News, Heaven - Bryan Adams

Syesha Mercado (1987) Didn't We Almost Have It All - Whitney Houston, Always - Atlantic Starr, At This Moment - Billy Vera & The Beaters

Jason Castro (1987) With Or Without You - U2, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For - U2, Faith - George Michael

Kristy Lee Cook (1984) Footloose - Kenny Loggins, Let's Hear It For The Boy - Deniece Williams, The Warrior, Scandal

Michael Johns (1978) Reminiscing - Little River Band, Dust In The Wind - Kansas, We Are The Champions/We Will Rock You - Queen, I Go Crazy - Paul Davis

Of all of these scenarios, I think Jason Castro has some great songs to match up with his style (accoustic U-2 would be cool). I think Kristy Cook could play with the Footloose songs and have an impact. Michael Johns could do some good with strong vocals on some good songs.

And of course, would like to see Archuleta power rap to Faith No More or dance fever it with Vanilla Ice...:mj07:

Here's a prediction - Castro will do U2, and stand out tonight. I could also see Chikeze doing a fun jump around version of "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis. That could rekindle the fun performance of a couple weeks ago.

Okay, that's way too much time and effort for these kids. Later.

Very Good, VERY Original version of a classic song...

It wasn't original. Seacrest said the name of the guy who did that version. He just copied it. Similar to Chris Daughtry covering the live version of Walk the Line by Johnny Cash that everyone thought was his original.

It was great though. Him and Michael Johns best of the night by a mile. Everyone else was just okay, or really bad.

I still think as I said a couple weeks ago that David Cook and Carly will be the final two with Carly winning.

loving my field bet against David Deuchbag....
