This is probably the 1st episode of AI I've ever seen. I'm only watching it to kill time until DWTS comes on. :) The 1st guy was a dork and this 2nd guy is absolutely butchering Don Henley.

SHUT UP, PAULA! Let Simon get a word in edgewise, damn it!

I'm sick of these judges hogging up all the airtime and forcing the producers to rush the show in the last ten minutes.

LoL, just wait 'til you see Adam Lambert.

Then again, he'll probably tone it down tonight. He's usually insane.

LIL ROUNDS - Nah. I'm noticing alot of flat notes. I think this is my favorite "look" of hers all season though. Good hair, nice outfit, cute shoes. The performance is boring though, and she's not hitting the notes in her lower register.

I give her 6 out of 10.

I'm not sure if I liked Lil or not, there were parts that worked for me and parts that didn't.

Why does Paula keep saying that Lil Rounds is a great vocalist? Her vocals have been crap for the last several weeks, and her vocals were crap tonight as well. She doesn't impress me anymore.

I totally agree.....

Her responses to the judges critiques have been pissing me off a bit as well. She keeps saying she'll work harder and get better but she's not improving.

You can say that again.

I will give a full review later but man are these people playing it safe tonight. Danny was meh (then again, I don't like him so...). Kris was boring as sin. Lil was in her element (and I agree this was her best look all season and she has been progressively looking better and better) but her voice was all over the place and it was a copycat, right down to imitating Tina's walk. She went with a good song but did nothing original with it.

Mhmm. She said the same thing last week and the week before.

"If America decides to keep me, I'll prove the judges wrong next week. I'll prove that I'm great and I'll prove that I know what I'm doing..."

Fast-forward a week, and guess what? She still picks terrible songs and her voice still falls flat. I hope she goes home after Scott.

I agree. That was the same shit Megan kept saying week after week but she never changed a damn thing.

I think Lil knows she has a strong fanbase and feels the judges will save her based on their comments in the past if she got eliminated, hence why she says one thing and still does her own thing.

LoL @ Anoop apologizing for being a king douche last week.

Don't apologize for talking back to those idiot judges!

UM.... the guy singing Cyndi Lauper has no rhythm. He's off time a lot.

ANOOP - Very safe vocal. Back to the slow stuff, and we all know he does well with the slower tracks. However, compared to some of his better performances (like country week), this is very middle of the road. Nothing special.

I give him 6 out of 10.

They're already rushing the show, LoL.

Why do they do this every week? They let the judges ramble on and on, and by the end of the episode they rush it at breakneck speed.

I miss Megan. :( I find myself wondering what kind of crazy stuff she could pull of tonight, but then I remember that she's gone...

Wait, I'm confused. How is Allison performing in the next segment? She's the youngest contestant this season, and if they're going in order of oldest to youngest, she should be singing last... right?

My guess is that Lambert gets the pimp spot.

Anoop was ok but his performance seemed to lack any kind of energy at all......

Not only do they let the judge's ramble on and on but when you only have an hour, why the hell would you do those stupid Coca Cola interview things for any of the contestants, let alone two of them, tonight. There is no time for that, especially when you wasted time on the baby pictures early on, as cute as they were.

The whole idea of a theme like this, I believe, is to make sure the show fits into the one hour block but they aren't handling it well at all tonight.

Back to the singing...Anoop was safe too. Everyone is playing it safe tonight. Perhaps that day off during the week was not a good idea. I mean, he sang well but nothing special. I prefer him this way then what he was last week. I like that he apologized too because he was an ass last week but Simon is right as well that he can give it back to them a bit as well. That should only happen when there is a reason though and there was no reason last night. He was out of line and realized it and rightfully apologized.
