American Idol Week 2 - Girls
Posted on February 28th, 2008 in American Idol
I think this will be the last time that I blog about American Idol as it plays out. I like it, but it just takes too long and is almost impossible to do with five kids in the house. To that end, enjoy this last of my running evaluations about American Idol.
- Carly Smithson - Not good at all. She sounded like she wanted to scream the words not sing the song. As bad as the boys did yesterday none of them did as bad as Carly did tonight.
- Syesha Mercado - She has a smooth voice but this song did not seem to be the right for her. She can sing as good as any girl on the show but this performance did not at all unleash the performer in her. She sang it. That’s all.
- Brooke White - Not a bad performance. Even with the guitar she sang very well. Not entirely an original performance but it was still very well sang and very well performed.
- Ramiele Mulabay - I think she did a pretty good job with this song. She sang it well. She didn’t perform it like it was hers, but she did sing it well and in a singing competition that can go far. I think she’ll be safe but this performance will be forgotten by tomorrow.
- Kristy Lee Cook - Not my favorite performance, though it was a very well sang song. I am still wondering when someone is going to do like David Archuleta did last night and take ownership of the song they are singing. Great vocal but lacked a lot of spirit.
- Amanda Overmeyer - This girl can rock, but tonight it seemed like her performance was a little scattered. She can sing, she can perform, but tonight it didn’t seem to come together for me. It was rockin’, but not as well as I could expect.
- Alaina Whitaker - Entirely too plain of a performance. She didn’t sing it very well, she didn’t perform it very well and she didn’t do anything special with the song. It was an easily forgettable night for her and, if she makes it to next week, she should count her lucky stars.
- Alexandréa Lushington - Yeah, I don’t think so. Not sure what that was all about but it is not really the level of performance that wins this competition.
- Kady Malloy - Wrong song, wrong night. I thought she was bad last week. This week I think it is her last week.
- Asia’h Epperson - Wow, did those shrill shrieks really come out of her like that? That was the most awful performance of the entire competition so far, including Hollywood week. Goodnight Asia’h. I think this is the end of the line for you.
Well given the way tonight went, I think I can select my front runner. Much like Melinda Doolittle last year, David Archuleta is the singer to beat this year. Girls going home this week are…
- Kady Malloy
- Asia’h Epperson
Let’s see how things work out for me.
