Oh, hey my American Idol loving people. And yes, I’m cool enough to call you “my people”.
As you know we’re to the Top 5… FINALLY. It seems like it’s taken forever. But, before we know, it’ll all be over. Ahh, yes.
I missed the introduction of the show, so sorry if I missed anything important (I’m doubtful I did). But, I do know that this week was Frank Sinatra themed, and since it’s a little difficult for him to be a mentor – Harry Connick Jr. was there. I kinda like HCJ, just for his personality.
Here is my recap of the night, after Jebbica’s Recap.
HCJ played Piano for the contestants, which was pretty cool. I would have been more impressed if he could have played the Didgeridoo… but oh well.
01) Aaron Kelly
He sang, “Fly Me to the Moon”.
The only thing I could think of while watching him was about the book “The Cow Jumped Over The Moon”. And I LOL’d. Aaron looked totally geekified with his hair combed like it was. I thought the performance was boring, but so is Frank Sinatra. The judges were okay with it, but Ellen thought the Piano was definitely pitchy.
02) Casey James
He sang, “Blue Skies”.
I thought the songs’ title was, “Blue Skis” and I thought, “Why would someone name a song THAT? A song about Blue Skis…pft”. Yes, I’m aware of my idiocy. He just sounded GOATY as ever. Maybe he was taking his Blue Skis and going down a bumpy hill while singing that. The judges thought it was his WORST yet, and Kara told him he sounded like a lamb. YO’ why dis gurl be takn all mah thots? I swear she says everything I already have. Only I do it without doing a chicken move with my neck.
03) Crystal Bowersox
She sang, “Summer Wind”.
She looked uber pretty. I loved that dress, but that HUGE tattoo on her back sort of ruined it for me. Not sure why, I LOVE tats. But, it was strange. The judges were not huge fans of it, but whatever. And of course, Crystal had to argue back. HAHA, atta girl.
04) Big Mike
He sang, “The Way You Look Tonight”.
Wasn’t that song in allot of movies? Before he even started singing, I was thinking it was going to be whiny, high pitched, and suckish. Which I was right, minus the suckish part. It wasn’t that bad considering that’s the kind of music Mike does. The judges were all over that, and they always are. He looked like a Pimp. I’m sorry. Oh, and why didn’t he pick up HCJ in the rehearsals video? He should have. MAN LOVE!!!!!11!!
05) Lee DeWyze
He sang, “That’s Life”.
I was scared that he didn’t have his guitar, because when he doesn’t, he has this problem with his right arm flailing around. WHO ELSE THINKS THAT’S ANNOYING? God, dude. Strap it down. In other news: He did okay, it wasn’t my thing. But, he’s still my favorite this year… the judges liked it. And Kara thought if that was the final show, he would have won. Wow, Kara. You’re intelligentness just inspires me to kick puppies. SHUT UP!
It was a rough night for the contestants. Who agrees? I was bummed out that it was Frank Sinatra night anyway. Can’t we have some new stuff?
