Ladies Night

By Michele

Here we go, finally the good stuff.

Just for the record, my favorite girl is Lisa.

See, two hours just isn't necessary. I don't care about all this crap. Just let me hear them sing.

Ok, first up. Mandisa.

I want to like her. I really do. And her voice is good, but I just don't think it's special enough. That was a good performance, though.

She really is so sweet, isn't she?

Kellie up.

Is it me or is the synching off again, like it was last year?


Oh, I don't think I care for her very much. Something about her voice I just don't like. Nasally, childhish.

Becky up.

Interesting song choice. I don;'t think she can pull it off.

And she is NOT pulling it off. She sucks.

She is DESTROYING this song.

My daughter says she makes faces like Beavis. That was a god damn disgrace.

Ayla coming up. I'll say right off the bat that I haven't liked her since the first time I saw her at auditions.

Yea, she has a nice voice. But man, I just can't get past my initial reaction to her.

Eh, that was kind of dull.

Paris is up.

I loved loved loved her at auditons but I think she brought it down a notch in Hollywood.

This is good. very good. How freaking cute is she?

Stevie up next.

Eh, I am not overwhelmed. At all.

Ok, im gonna miss the next singer. Back in a bit.

Ok, back. Who did I miss? (it's 9:24 now)

Meliss up.

I like her voice. It's deep, throaty. Don't know if it's a winnable voice, but it sounds like a radio-friendly voice.

Lisa coming up. My favorite girl.

For a 16 year old, she's got a great stage presence.

Oh I really dig her. She might have missed one or two notes. But she has clearly got the talent. She wowed them!

Kinnik up.

It's nice. It's soulful. it's good. But I'm not totally wowed.

Katherine up. I know Stacy does NOT like her. But I like her simply because I think she has total drama queen potential. We need drama!

I don't like her stage movements. She looks like an awkward chicken.

Ok, that was good. But it was also very ordinary. Nothing we haven't heard before, nothing that makes me stand up and applaud. I am going to disagree with Simon. There is NO WAY she was better than Lisa. No. Freaking. Way.

I am voting for Lisa.

So excited for the guys tomorrow night!

I fogot I went out to dinner with my wife on Wednsday, I have no idea who's who.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:06 PM

I'm sorry, it takes a lot of guts to even try Heart.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:15 PM

I don't like the song. And do I have to mention the nasal thing?

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:17 PM

Not liking Kelly. Mandisa was very good considering the difficulty of the song.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 08:18 PM

Mandisha, rock!

Kelli - tired of her already. Simon likes her and wants her to win, but...eh... I wouldn't buy her album, probably.

Hate to diss the Irish, but Becky O'Donohue isn't doing anything for me. She'd do well in a karaoke bar. :)

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 08:27 PM

You can't channel Patti Smith.

I don't like her.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:28 PM

That was a *bad* karaoke performance.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 08:29 PM

Worst part of a new season: having to watch all the newbies doing the "squat". Sigh.

Posted by: owen at February 21, 2006 08:31 PM

I don't care for this song, but she did a good job with it.

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 08:38 PM

Ayla: I know what you mean Michele, she sings okay, but I just don't like HER.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:39 PM

She's kind of a suck-up.

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 08:40 PM

It's like she's running for class president or something.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:41 PM

LOVE Paris.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:43 PM

DAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:43 PM

Ahhhh. I do love me the Paris.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 08:43 PM

She needs to do more singing, less performing. Hold the notes, don't just blurt them out.

Posted by: owen at February 21, 2006 08:44 PM

Ok, let's just make Paris the winner and call it a day.

I like her hair that way.

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 08:44 PM

I'm with you Denise. Paris is the one to beat.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:46 PM

Prison Break is finally coming back! Woo!

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 08:51 PM

Stevie Scott...eh... I'm gonna watch bobsled racing.

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 08:53 PM

Cute. The song was pretty. I wouldn't buy it on i-Tunes for 99 cents.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:56 PM

That was just awful.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 08:56 PM

Obviously very skilled, but enh.

Posted by: owen at February 21, 2006 08:56 PM

Sucking up to Seacrest. Not winning any votes that way. I'm not judgin', I'm just sayin'.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 08:57 PM

Did Paula take assertiveness training or something?

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 09:06 PM

Yawn.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:08 PM

Okay, first hour, Paris and Mandisha.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:08 PM

Heather: HATE this song.

Good thing she's singing so soft that I can't hear it.

This is weak.

How did she make it to the finals?

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:15 PM

Heather's got no "there" there. No power, no conviction.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:15 PM

Second hour, it's still Paris and Mandisha.

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 09:15 PM

Melissa.

Great. She "loves this song." That's been the kiss of death tonight.

What's she singing? I couldn't understand the first verse.

It got better but...I'm not lovin' her.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:26 PM

I like the "smoky" quality of Melissa's voice, but I don't think she can win this.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:28 PM

Wow. Wow. Wow. She's *16*?

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:32 PM

Lisa:

Oooooooh.

Couple of flat notes.

Threw it down. I like her.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:33 PM

Paula's on drugs again.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:34 PM

Tim: it's probably more useful to note when she isn't :)

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:38 PM

Kinnik: Love her dress! She sings pretty good, too.

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 09:42 PM

Kinnik.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Whoa, a little rough on that one soaring part.

Mostly mmmmmmmmmmmmm though.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:42 PM

Kinnk's not bad, but Lisa's a tough act to follow.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:43 PM

There's a McGhee and a McPhee?

Ok, Nanny McPhee loses points in my book for calling it "The Business." Sheesh...

Posted by: Denise at February 21, 2006 09:52 PM

She makes me giggle.

What an amazing voice.

suhhhwheeeet!

Okay, 4 girls woth a damn.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 09:52 PM

Katherine was relentlessly average. She threw in all the outword signs of "diva-ism" but I don't buy that she was feeling it.

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:54 PM

2 votes filed for Lisa. Bring on the boys..

Posted by: Ian S. at February 21, 2006 09:56 PM

I'm sorry, I have to disagree. Katherine had NO bad notes. No flats, no sharps.

Not as dynamic a performance, but it was a better sounding performance.

Posted by: Timmer at February 21, 2006 10:01 PM

kinnik looks like a paul frank tshirt
