American Idol Top 7 2.0- Disco

Favourite this post

Flashback to the 80's where funny clothes and flamboyance was not only acceptable, but also required!! Thank the man upstairs I was obly born in that decade!! Okay, so maybe the music wasn't all that bad, but of course Disco died there and then (I think!).

So last night Matt was eliminated but (thankfully) saved by the judges. This is the only time they could do that and I think they made the right choice. Of course 2 contestants will be eliminated tonight!!

Just a note on last night's show: overall everyone was good! Randy didn't make sense by dissing Kris' excellent performance and Simon shows that he does not really know what he want by calling Adam's performance "something from The Rocky Horror Show" (I mean, how was that Adam performance different from his others? It was classic Adam). I also really liked the group performance.

Disco

These are their song choices for Wednesday:

Lil' Rounds
Chaka Khan - I'm every woman
Surely she should kill this song??

Kris Allen
Donna Summer - She Works Hard for the Money
Interesting song choice. Guys are definitely not afraid to sinf girl songs! It is dsco week anyway...

Danny Gokey
Earth, Wind & Fire - September
Don't know this song but think the band is okayish. The music video I've seen is certainly flamboyant.

Allison Iraheta
Donna Summer - Hot Stuff
Be prepared for a rock/disco version. Surely?? I love this chick and she still remains my pick as winner, but she has to beat of Danny and the Adam (I almost said Adams Family member...)

Adam Lambert
Yvonne Elliman - If I Can't Have You
I don't know this song but knowing Adam it's gonna be interesting. I know a lot of you like this guy (I mean she he has talent), but I just don't feel him!

Matt Giruard
Bee Gees - Stayin' Alive
The cat with 9 lives. Sticking to his soul vibes (this is not really disco, is it??). Hope Matt sticks around a while longer, but his chances of winning are much less after "almost" eviction.

Anoop Desai
Donna Summer - Dim All The Lights
Was Donna really the Disco Queen? AI's lendel is still kicking strong, but I think the bo has overstayed his welcome irrespective of how good the performance is.

So hopefully my favourites will show why they are there!! This might be ineteresting, better than last night's movie fiasco....

If i can't have you
i dont want nobody babeee
If i cant have you
Oh ho ho ho

U have to know this song Piz......i think Diana Ross did the same song. If that's not the song, then i dont know it either.

Last nite i agreed with Simon's comments on Lil and Adam. I was saying to my mom how when u're known as a good dresser, people will praise you even when u're wearing your PJs. Adam sang the song like it's sung and there wasn't anything extra-ordinary about his rendition except the dance moves i guess.

Lil didn't do anything to TheRose, she sang it like it was a tribute and not like she wanted to showcase her voice. With a voice like that, she should have been singing like JHud, who was under no pressure to impress last nite.

Lil' Rounds
Chaka Khan - I'm every woman
Surely she should kill this song??

Yes she should!! This is going to be a case of too little too late. If 2 people are leaving tonight, i can't see how Lil will escape the cut. Love her though!

I wonda if thtdude saw the rihanna on adam? Hence we said she instead of him!

WhiteSockGirl
07 May 2009 20:38

Ok,... but in my drunken mind it actually makes sense,....

You have Adam, Alison,... people who are not affected hormone in balances will vote for them,... so they share the same pool of voters,...

And the you have Ken and the JT cope,.... teenage girls will vote for them,... so they share the same pool of voters

And then you have Danny,... the horny older women with the Elvis collections will vote for him... so he will most probably win,...

Anoop,.. I don't know,... Geeks? But do they watch TV,...
