idol chatter — week 6

Nav Logo-2Well, here we are again. Another Tuesday night in front of the TV set. I’ve been going so hard with preparing to sell my house that it felt good to plop down on the couch and just be entertained.

So here’s my rundown:

Lakisha sang Last Dance and was good but it didn’t feel memorable to me.

Chris S. sang Every Little Thing She Does is Magic. Although I love his voice, this just felt sort of off. The judges said he wasn’t in tempo with the band, so I guess that’s why.

Gina sang I’ll Stand by You. The judges loved it. I thought it was good, but I wasn’t wowed.

I can’t even tell you what Sanjaya sang. It wasn’t good, but it was better than that crazy choice of hairdo. This kid really needs a barber and a mirror.

Hayley fails to impress me, although it was one of her better performances.

Phil sang Every Breath You Take, and it was terrific. Best he’s done for a few weeks.

Melinda turned in another great performance, although I wasn’t fond of the song choice (Heaven Knows).

Like Melinda, Blake turns in consistently strong performances, and tonight was no different. It was a quiet love song, a bit of a change for Blake and very enjoyable.

Jordin went for fun and sassy. She did a great job, although the song (Hey Baby) was very repetitive and I was ready for it to end before it did.

Chris R. wrapped up the night. I think I enjoyed his performance more than Randy and Simon did. Not a “wow” but nice.

And so the one hour and seven minute show came to an end. Last week was more enjoyable overall. Maybe I’m just tired but I was sort of underwhelmed. And I’m afraid I’ll go to sleep and dream of Sanjaya’s dreadful faux mohawk. Yikes!
