Another crappy night for the girls...
Carly Smithson
"Crazy On You"
Randy and his freekin' "pitch" critiques! She nailed this! I think this was a great song choice for her voice. Nice way to start the night. Fantastic job!
Syesha Mercado
"Me and Mr. Jones"
Apparently I'm not hearing what the judges are hearing tonight. I thought this was a fabulous, strong take on a classic R&B tune. The night got better with this performance. Nice arrangement, top-notch vocals.
Brooke White
"You're So Vain"
Yeah...I'm definitely not on the same page as the judges tonight. She was SO off on the chorus of this song. She seemed to be ok in the verses, but man...she fell really flat elsewhere. A bit disappointing...at least the way I heard it sitting here on my sofa.
Ramiele Malubay
"Don't Leave Me This Way"
Not the best performance; rather average, actually. She can definitely sing, but his was only an ok performance.
Kristy Lee Cook
"You're No Good"
Like Ramiele before her, Kristy Lee was only average tonight. She'll be back next week, but she won't be the biggest vote getter of the night.
Amanda Overmyer
"Carry On My Wayward Son"
That hair! There's something almost parody-like about it. I mean, it's like Whitesnake fucked Cruella Deville and Amanda was the spawn. The dancing was a bit much, as well. Honey, the 80s are over...come...join us here in the 21st century. Vocally she was strong in places, missed the mark in others.
Alaina Whitaker
"Hopelessly Devoted To You"
It's the night of mediocity. And the sad thing is, as in seasons past, one of these average-josephines will probably win the competition. That said, this was nothing special. Alaina didn't do herself any favors tonight.
Alexandrea Lushington
"If You Leave Me Now"
What an odd choice of song. I mean, it might have worked if she changed the arrangement a bit, but she used the exact original layout and it didn't work. It sounded like off-key karaoke. My judgement...it was the 2nd worst of the night. She may very well have knocked herself out of the contest with this.
Kady Malloy
"Magic Man"
What was with the oversized bedazzled dress? What a rag! As for the performance...like nails on a chalkboard. Crappy all around. She beat out Alexandrea for worst of the night with this hack job. She may sqeak through tomorrow night (never discount the teen-boy-masturbatory-vote), but if it were up to me she would be sent home.
Asiah Eepherson
"All By Myself"
Yet another odd song choice...and then she dropped the ball with it. Off key, lazy, and the vocal olypmics crap at the end doesn't make up for it. One of three worst of the night.
