Let's try this again...
I don't know if anyone else enjoyed it, but I did, so I'm doing the running diary thing again with the Top 12 Show. Unfortunately, I'm not overly familiar with Diana Ross' catalogue, that's more my dad's type of music, but whatever...
8:14 - Picking this up a little late, I got to heard Brandon as I was rummaging my cupboards for food. It really wasn't great. No need to reiterate what Randy and Simon said, but Paula is just such an appologist. "We don't need to tell you what you did wrong"?!? Isn't that your fucking job, you stupid twit? (yes, I debated which vowel to use there..)
8:18 - "Simon, any advice on the high heels?"
"That's more you're thing, Ryan"
"Stay out of my closet!"
"Why don't you come out of there?"
That did not just fucking happen......
8:19 - How can you not love Melinda Doolittle??
8:20 - No, seriously.
8:22 - Crying? C'mon, seriously.... like, she was good, but pull your damned self together, Paula.
8:25 - What's with Jack Osbourne? I thought he had his own show now.... Oh, that's Chris? You're sure? Really? Oh, my bad.
8:27 - Jack actually did a nice job of that.
8:28 - Apparently Randy disagreed. And holy shit, Paula actually had a criticism. That must have really blown. And that's an o'fer from the judges. Turns out not knowing how it's "supposed" to sound gave me no frame of reference. But yeah, it did sound like "Speed of Sound".
8:35 - Diana, the fucking word is "enunciate"... "pronunciate" doesn't exist.
8:36 - Gina seems like a cool chick to grab a beer with. Oh, and she can sing a little, too...
8:38 - Christ... even Paula knows it's "enunciate".
8:39 - I want to punch Sanjaya in the friggin' face. Seriously.
8:45 - "Ain't no mountain..." always struck me as a powerful, inspiring song. I was bored by this dude.
8:47 - Holy crap... Paula said it best: "You have to explode with your vocals."
8:48 - Why does the audience always boo Simon? Seriously. Just cuz he says something that isn't nice and perky and blindly positive, doesn't mean it's not fucking true! Why should the truth be booed? This pisses me off.
8:51 - TB 2, TOR 1. You could argue the Leafs (sic) really need this one. Imminently winnable, and at home. With under 6 minutes to go in the second, they're clearly shitting the bed. If anything, they need to miss the playoffs again just to prove that it's not a fucking disaster. But nobody listens to me, anyway........
8:53 - "Haley, where's the craziest place you've ever....." Excuse me??!? Oh, sang....
8:57 - Haley, you're adorable, but that was not great.
8:58 - Paula stole my word....
8:59 - Simon must have the hots for her.
9:00 - Awe... actual humility. I think she just got the pity vote. I hope she gets a Mulligan.
9:01 - Hey... 2-2. Look at that. Leaf fans can have hope again!
9:07 - I can honestly say that I have never heard this Phil dude sing before. I'm not kidding when I say I ignored the guys up until now. Anyway, he's not awful, but generally unremarkable.
9:16 - LaKisha really has a great voice, and probably could have been a star back in the days before MTV and stuff. Yeah, I just went there. I'm an asshole. But don't pretend you're not thinking the same thing. Based purely on vocal talent, it's down to her and Melinda. That's all there is to it.
9:19 - Fucking Cowall just said that, too. Damn I'm good. :)
9:20 - Is it really necessary to have the "Dramatization" tag at the bottom of the screen for the DQ Flamethrower burger add? Really? Are we that stupid? Oh... I see.
9:26 - Hey... Blake's doing an Alvin and the Chipmunks song! This I like.... no really, I love that song. Maybe I know more Diana Ross than I thought.
9:27 - Actually, this is pretty cool.
9:30 - I think I absorbed a lot more Motown from my dad than I realize. I really do enjoy that genre. Note to self: Download more.
9:34 - Well lookie here... Leafs (sic) are up 3-2! Who knew?
9:35 - What the hell was that? A lighter? I kinda missed that flipping back from TSN... lil' help? I'm curious why Simon looked so pissed off when they cut back from the clip thingy.
9:37 - I think Stephanie is comfortably near the top of the second tier of singers. She'll be around for a while, and has the stage presence to go a long way.
9:39 - Not familiar enough with the song to know the "disco" part.... so no clue what they're all talking about. Perhaps this needs to be a track I download sooner rather than later. If nothing else, for curiosity's sake.
9:40 - "I'm not any different from you, except I'm older" ... cute, Ms. Ross, cute.
9:41 - Wow... Maira wasn't kidding. This dude really is a JT impersonator. Except this is striking me as, to steal from a certain judge, bad karaoke.
9:42 - Check that... it's just plain bad. Talk about out of his comfort zone.
9:43 - Did Paula just say he was one of the best guys? That's hardly a compliment....
9:44 - Thank gawd... someone else thought it sucked. I was starting to think I was losing my mind. I'll give you one guess as to which one broke the truth to him. He should be fine tho, cuz there were worse.
9:46 - Leafs are still up... And Miami has made quite the comeback against Utah 83-83 after being down double digits last time I checked... too bad they're toast this year with D-Wade out. Shaq's just not a crunchtime scorer. You just foul him, and he'll get pissed off and brick his free throws. Not a tenable playoff plan.
9:52 - Huh. That was really good. What a smile at the end, too.
9:53 - Perhaps an overstatement to say she is in the company of Melinda and LaKisha, but she's damned good. I'd almost call her the winner now, for marketability reasons and general popularity.
Either way, if those were the top 6 guys, I'm glad I fucking ignored them. They blew.
Gina's my favourite, but I'm going to say it again.... I'm making the call on Jordin winning tonight. Mark my words. That said, a label would be insane to not sign Melinda and LaKisha once they're off the show. Deyz got talent....
PS: 1:09 left, Leafs still up 3-2..... and the Leafs manage to survive Antropov breaking a Don Cherry axiom: Don't clear up the middle. Seriously... how do they keep this douchebag around? If anything I cheer against the Leafs, but this guy keeping his job annoys me.
10:02 - Game over. Oh Chirst... that dipshit Antropov got the game winner........ oy.
8:14 - Picking this up a little late, I got to heard Brandon as I was rummaging my cupboards for food. It really wasn't great.
