Idol Seattle

Semi- livebogging…

Da Hotness – Not…

Darwin (Misha): That’s definitely her mother…

Tommy wants to ride the elevator to the top. Third audition. Doesn’t really stand out. But they liked him…

Melissa (Carlene) had a big voice…

Blake: what’s with the rap record skipping stuff? Paula likes him, Simon not as much, but he gets through.

David Mills: not quite William Hung… He said it was a definite wake up call. That’s good. He can get a life now.

Brother and Sister. They’re cute. Shyamali’s pretty good, Summertime… Sanjaya doing Stevie Wonder. He can sing too. Simon and Randy like him better. He’s going to Hollywood too!

Nicholas: He does instrumentals… He doesn’t know what makes him unique… Unchained Melody. Almost thought he sang “Lolita” in there… my ears hurt. Also bad, but no William Hung.
Sometimes he scares himself.

Rudy – Open Arms (Journey): The highs were a bit off, Simon doesn’t like him, Paula loves him, Randy says yes as well.

[House returns January 30th, yeah! and Prison Break before 24 on Monday!]

Kenneth: Little fella. He is very confident. Close to William Hung. Paula: I think you’re awesome. Like a firecracker.

Kenneth gives Jonathan good advice: Try your hardest and have fun with it. You’ll see my amazing personality if you get me through. God Bless America. Starts okay, then he can’t hit the notes. Kenneth has his arms crossed for Jonathan. Kenneth is a good friend even though they only just met.

They’re doing background on Eric. He must make it. That’s the way it worked last night. Maybe not. The consensus: he’s no Taylor Hicks.

Anna is TALL. Can she sing? Aretha Franklin Respect. She can belt. Glad she made it.

Jordin, another 16 year old. Celine Dion song. She can belt. Hit the high note right. She has control. She is good. Simon, too sugary? He likes her though. Golden ticket time.

Big Red – who is up next – looks like he is the star of those campfire stories about the axe murderer with the hook for a hand that kills the young couples in their cars…

After hearing him speak – that description seems even more true.

I’ve never liked Carrot Top.

My ears hurt before he sings Bohemian Rhapsody.

OMG! I can’t believe that they’re not actually on the floor.

Next week Memphis.
