Disco night proved to be quite the undertaking. I don’t think it’s about who did the best, but who did the least bad. That’s right, I said least bad.
None of the Idols gave steller performances. I think a lot of the problem stems from the judges. One week they say, “Make it your own” and the next week they say “You changed the song. You don’t have to do that.” So which is it???
Out of the final four, Melinda did the best in my book. However she’s coming off as old. Yes the songs were old, but it carried across to Melinda. That’s her weak point right now.
Lakisha has peaked. Sad but true. She’s just not giving the WOW performances she once did. I liked both performances, but they left me wanting more out of her.
Jordin performed quite well too. Nothing steller, but she’s pretty safe. With her though, she’s singing songs about being in love and all that jazz. She’s only 17!! What does she know about love?
And then there was Blake. Holding out any hope for the men, but coming up short. I totally agree with Randy in the fact that the beat boxing is cool, but not in every song. His first song was sung great, but the added extras killed it. The second song was nice, beat boxing worked pretty well, but I think it would have been better without it.
To me, I think it’s either Blake or Lakisha going home. I doubt either will make it into the finals, but who knows.
Also, did anyone else notice that ‘Seacrest Out’ was back? Yep, the Ryan Seacrest tagline came back. How cool is that?
