American Idol - Top 10
Gwen Stefani is teaching them how to sing? Really? Maybe she could teach them how to yodel, but sing...?
It's funny that No Doubt/Gwen Stefani have sold millions of albums, but it's not good enough to be just their songs this week.
Anyway, here are my thoughts on the top 10 tonight:
Lakisha Jones - Too much vibrato - so much that she's starting to sound like Elmer Fudd at times. She also needs to take it down a notch. Her voice even overpowers the music instead of being a compliment to it.
Chris Sligh - Chris, you're starting to bore me. He sounded a little off-key and off-tempo tonight and I'd say it was one of his worst performances. I agreed with Simon - it didn't feel right and would have been a bad first impression.
Gina Glocksen - A good song choice for her tone. One of her best performances - showed control, range and power in her voice.
Sanjaya Malakar - So, you don't like my voice, but you keep voting for me. Well, how about if I come out looking like a trainwreck? I'll put my hair in a funky faux-hawk...will you still vote for me then? Not only was he off-key as usual, but he also forgot words.
Haley Scarnato - After all the comments on her outfit last week, it's no surprise that she came out in another short skirt. It wasn't as good as last week, but another solid vocal effort. She's lost the Broadway image.
Phil Stacey - The right tone for his voice, but he sounded kind of bored. It wasn't one of his better performances, and there are a few guys better than him. He'll be on his way out soon. He showed that No Doubt is not good for vocals.
Melinda Doolittle - Again, I've had enough of the "Really? I'm good?" look. Get over it. You can sing, but unfortunately, you sing like you're 20 years older than you are. She looked a little more confident when singing, but I'm tired of the act already. I don't picture her as a top-selling Idol.
Blake Lewis - I didn't like a ballad for him, but it showed diversity. It wasn't a memorable out-of-place performance a la "Wonderful World" by Chris Daughtry last season, but it was good to show another side.
Jordin Sparks - Like Sanjaya, she showed that No Doubt is not good for vocals. She showed a fun, young personality, but I didn't like her spin on the song. It was kind of up and down with good and bad moments.
Chris Richardson - I didn't like it. He's too much like Justin Timberlake. Though JT's popularity could help, I think he needs his own personality. It could be his week to go.
The bottom three: Chris, Phil and, of course, Sanjaya.
