American Idol Elimination - May 7

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

No surprises tonight on Idol as Jason Castro was sent packing. Brooke White may have gotten by an extra week (or two) after she forgot the words to one of her songs, but Jason Castro doesn't have the umpteen number of lives that Brooke had. Forgetting the lyrics or not, ...

Archuleta Already the Winner?

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

TMZ thinks the jig up. Saying that last night it seemed "as if the judges were preprogrammed to drool over him regardless of what he did." Cory posted on our recap of Archuleta's performance that the recap of the performance was different than the actual performance. Is Idol rigging this thing so ...

Syesha Mercado Proud Mary and A Change Is Gonna Come

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

As usual, Syesha is tackling songs that are bigger than her voice. It's not that she doesn't have a good voice, she just doesn't have a big enough voice to take on the songs she is singing. Take Proud Mary for example. Tina Turner took this CCR song and made ...

David Cook Baba O’Riley and Hungry Like the Wolf

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

I might be a little critical of David Cook, but Baba O'Riley is one of my all-time favorite songs. There's something that just not right with this song being slowed down. Cook sounded great, but this arrangement was awful. And I know Idol is a family show and some lyrics ...

Jason Castro Mr. Tambourine Man and I Shot the Sheriff

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

Who didn't see this coming. The dreadlocked Jason Castro sings one song that is rumored to be about a drug deal and another song by every weed smokers favorite artists. Okay, maybe I'm generalizing (both the dreadlocked Idol and weed smokers), but it did seem a little cliche. Jason didn't ...

David Archuleta Stand By Me and Love Me Tender

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

This show constantly comes down to song selection and this week David Archuleta picked two songs that not only fit his voice, but are going to guarantee him that shot in the Finale. Yeah, I know I'm jumping the gun, but these songs appealed to his "base." That's all I'm ...

Brooke White Gone - Finally

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

How many lives did Brooke White have this season? Too many, that's for sure. It was like she was the cheerleader on Heroes or something. She was finally eliminated tonight making the way for a Top Four of: the two Davids, Jason, and Syesha.

Paula Abdul Blunder

Paula Abdul's blunder from last night. Whoops...

Brooke White I’m a Believer & I Am I Said

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I really hope Brooke White goes home this week...that's all I'm going to say. Here's video of I'm a Believer: Video of I Am I Said:

Jason Castro Forever in Blue Jeans & September Morn

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I think Jason Castro's run on American Idol is going to be coming to a close soon. It isn't that he's bad, it's just that the competition is being narrowed down. He should make it through this week fine, as long as Brooke White doesn't have another miracle. Here's video ...
