Hunk-A-Hunk-A Burning Idol
April 14th, 2010
Elvis Night. We previously had Elvis night back in Season 5, in the fateful week that Mr. Daughtry was voted off (sigh). Hopefully this week will not produce any shock eliminations (go Bowersox!)
After the surprise save of Big Mike last week, we have a top nine redux. I hope they all know how much is at stake, and BRING. IT.
01. Crystal Bowersox
|
 |
“Saved” – This is great! I loved the energy, I loved the electric guitar. I mean, what else can I say? |
02. Andrew Garcia
 |
 |
“Hound Dog” – Yikes, the video package threw him under the bus, because it showed him and Adam talking about speeding it up, but he didn’t end up doing it. The arrangement was ok, and the performance was ok, but I agree with Glambert in that it was boring. Blah. |
03. Tim Urban
|
 |
“I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You” – Ok, not bad, Tim. Two weeks in a row you didn’t suck! Congrats! Like Andrew before him, he didn’t take Glambert’s flasetto voice advice. But it turned out ok. |
04. Lee DeWyze |
+1/2 |
“A Little Less Conversation” – I love his voice and the performance was great, but I still think he could show more energy on the stage. It is good he is smiling, though. And hopefully he will get the performances there, soon. |
05. Aaron Kelly
 |
|
“Blue Suede Shoes” – He looks a little uneasy on the stage, still. He has a really great voice and it showed towards the end–but I think he might be in trouble tomorrow. |
06. Siobhan Magnus
|
|
“Suspicious Minds” – I think Siobhan has hit a major speed bump. She lost the energy and excitement she had a few weeks ago. This was just boring to me. |
07. Mike Lynche
 |
|
“In The Ghetto” – Aw, nice, Big Mike! I loved that performance! It was soulful and felt authentic. His voice was clear and I really liked the tone. Props to the big guy! |
08. Katie Stevens
 |
|
“Baby What Do You Want Me To Do” – I like the upped sas-level, but she has to be careful that it doesn’t come across as snobby, and as Simon likes to say, precocious. But she has a few good weeks left in her, and I do think she is getting better. |
09. Casey James
 |
|
“Lawdy Miss Claudy – The audio mix was off, I think, because his vocals seemed drowned out. It was frustrating because I can’t really decide if it was good or not. So I give him the benefit of the doubt with a big smile. I suppose he is allowed one bum week every once in a while. |
Ryan scores one for the Dunkleman Jokes! LOL – maybe Dunkleman should be a guest judge. Or replace Simon. I mean, there are so many possibilities!
I loved Big Mike tonight. And Crystal, obviously, but she is in my favorites list every week. Lee was pretty good, as well.
Andrew is definitely going home tomorrow. Maybe Aaron, too. Big Mike should survive one more week.
Glee Out!
