You are allowed to discuss opinions in a reasonable manner but you can not attack someone if they like or dislike a particular contestant. Please respect your fellow posters. 2: There will be no personal bashing of any contestant. You can say you don't like the contestant for their performances or because you just don't like their personality but please do not personally attack the person.

:doh I have a feeling this is going to be one big hot mess of a show. :rolleyes Two contestants will be voted off tomorrow night.

Wouldn't a lot of people be surprised at how well Clay could do tonight Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 05:10:16 PM I think Lil Rounds picked the right song . . . . and (since the right look seems important to the judges) her outfit looks great!
BTW - She sounds good, too! Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: WilsonClaymate on March 10, 2009, 05:11:51 PM Lil did good tonight
Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 05:12:53 PM Lil Rounds - The Way You Make Me Feel
Randy - this is the way we kick of Season 8; what's great about you is you just put a new spin on this with a bluesy feel Kira - perfect when you come out; what Lil just did makes everyone think "I've got to step up my game"; I hope we get to hear you on the radio; that last note was just sick! Paula - blah blah blah makeup blah blah blah; force to be reckoned with; falsetto is like angels singing Simon -it was good; was a little disappointed; lazy song choice; first half not as good as the second half; hate what you wearing Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 05:13:57 PM Lil is quality. She just is. :bigsmile
What's wrong with Paula's makeup tonight? Her coloring is just off. Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 05:14:24 PM Lil did good tonight BARB - I thought so, too! And, yes, many people would be amazed at how good Clay can do with a MJ song! :clap We know for sure! :bigsmile Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 05:23:42 PM Scott MacIntyre - Keep the Faith
Randy - song was cool; performance was good but felt very safe; want to see more sparks Kira - glad we're getting to see you with the piano; not the most obvious MJ song but what I liked was the message; not the most dynamic but you're true to yourself every week Paula - beautiful; lovely performance Simon -hated the song because nobody knows it; fine being artistic just not on this show; I think you're a good singer I just didn't like the song Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: WilsonClaymate on March 10, 2009, 05:24:18 PM Scott is talented and remarkable but I'm not sure he can make it as a pop star. He could probably make a good living at a very high class restaurant or lounge.
Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 05:26:14 PM I'm kinda with Randy--I need to see more spark.
Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 05:27:54 PM Scott sounded fine, but nothing outstanding. It is so commendable that he has done so well with music in spite of his visual impairment, but I hope each contestant is judged on their voice and stage presence.
It is so refreshing to see how he and his family have handled the disability. :clap Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 05:34:20 PM Danny Gokey - PYT (Pretty Young Thing)
Got better. I hated the first part but once he got started it was good. Randy - what's so amazing about you is I look for a different style from you; I loved it all because I felt like it was just passionate and not choreographed Kira - the joy you have when you step on the stage Paula - true art of an artist is when you can hear somebody even with your eyes closed and know exactly who you are :scratch :hypno Simon -vocals brilliant; one heck of a singer; however, the dancing was hideous Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 05:34:47 PM Gotta agree with Simon about Danny's dancing. :para
Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 05:37:24 PM Gotta agree with Simon about Danny's dancing. :para He seemed out of control . . . . but in a good way! :smile Michael Sarver sounds better than I remembered him to be! :clap Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 05:39:44 PM Michael Sarver - You Are Not Alone
kinda blah for me, nice but just ok Randy - I'm happy about for you, you returned to the R/B Kira - tonight showed me that you really can sing and hit those notes; I thought you did a great job; you are serious, you bring your A-game every time Paula - you're likable; regular guy with extraordinary talent; song that is instinctual for you; colored it up; beautiful; sounded lovely Simon -you're not the best singer in this competition but you made up for it with passion, heart, and you gave it 110% Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 05:40:14 PM So far, the only one I've found interesting at all has been Lil.
Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 05:49:39 PM Make Paula stop talking! :bduh
Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 05:50:23 PM Jasmine Murray - I'll Be There
blah. boring. Is anybody going to sing an uptempo song? Randy - you mixed the two versions together (Mariah Carey & Michael); wasn't that bad Kira - I was on the edge, you hit some of these notes; you did it; you sold it; you have great stage presence Paula - lovely young lady your age; you have tremendous composure and poise; a few moments where you were under but you had brilliant moments too Simon -make a good attempt; nice control at the end; big note; a little bit robotic at times; lighten up a little bit; act your age; it's a bit little girl trying to be a grown up Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 05:50:36 PM Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 05:51:42 PM Quote blah. boring.

Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Moonshot on March 10, 2009, 06:01:01 PM Kris Allen - Remember the Time
Randy - love the guitar; interesting song choice with the guitar; very Jason Mrazy Kira - the girls love you; I'm happy to see you there with your guitar; a whole other side of you; a few notes off; spent a lot of time helping out the other contestants Paula - no one knows MJ's catalog better than you; adorable sexiness; great job Simon -interesting; not sure if that song suits a guitar, at times a bit clumsy; did ok; Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 06:02:33 PM Oh god, I thought Kris's performance was never gonna end. :rolleyes

Randy - if you got you just got it and you're born with it I don't care how old you are; you can sing anything; you're one to watch in this whole thing Kira - distinguish yourself with those rock vocals; great job Paula - mind boggling; so poised; a rockstar up there; keep doing what you're doing; hair looks great; stay authentic Simon -good performance; good thing about you is we know who you are; you know what kind of artist you want to be; lighten up a bit; confident; poised Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: WilsonClaymate on March 10, 2009, 06:08:10 PM Of all the great MJ songs I remember, these kids are not finding any of them.

Finally! Uptempo! Randy - wrong choice; very karaoke; you've got more than that, not the song you should be doing Kira - since you can sing we didn't get to hear you do any variation on anything; no riffs, nothing; no connection with you Paula - when you pick a song it's your gift to show the world what you got; I think this song is untouchable and anything else sounds karaoke Simon -horrible; no aggression; very lightweight; a bit stupid, someone trying to be MJ but failing Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 06:18:47 PM Jeez, I didn't think it was the best song for Anoop, maybe not the best performance....

Randy - not a song I would have chosen because it is old-fashioned; nice upper range; would have chosen something more challenging Kira - you're one of the most emotionally connected people but I didn't feel it tonight Paula - don't feel you were yourself Simon -corny and you were out of your depth; arrangement was awful; couldn't wait for it to end Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 10, 2009, 06:27:22 PM If these songs are all so disastrous, why the heck did they pick a Michael Jackson week??

That was cute! LOVE that dress! Randy - song choice didn't suit you Kira - not an overwhelming vocal performance but you put your personality in it Paula - quirky and unique tone to your voice; picked the right song but at times I felt disconnected Simon -we like you but a stupid song choice; whole performance was clumsy and awkward; if people were just seeing her for the first time they would have thought it was nuts Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 06:38:09 PM If these songs are all so disastrous, why the heck did they pick a Michael Jackson week??

Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: WilsonClaymate on March 10, 2009, 07:07:07 PM IMO Lil was the best one tonight. We'll find out tomorrow night which two go home. Hard choice for me because I was not impressed by too many of them.
I probably won't be here tomorrow night but I'll sure check in when I get home. Oh how terrible, I'll miss Kanye West -- NOT. As usual, thanks for your input Michelle. Enjoyed spending the time with you ladies. See you back here next week. Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: wisconsinmaniac on March 10, 2009, 07:09:12 PM I think Lil Rounds and Adam Lambert kind of stole the show tonight . . . . and the judges were very positive about them!

MICHELLE - I don't know how you keep all the info straight for us, but it is much appreciated! :clap See y'all tomorrow night!

I was surprised (since I did not watch auditions) at how many good singers there are this season. Adam and Lil were the best, but there were several who were almost as good. (And I didn't think Anoop was that bad - I also don't see what the Judges see in Megan!)

Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Anniebell on March 10, 2009, 07:40:50 PM I thought to that Adam and Lil were the best
tonight. What I don't understand is why they chose Michal Jackson songs for the first night of the final 13. He is a tough act to follow. I think most of them did better than I thought they would. Scott is still my favorite by far. Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Ms Phyl on March 10, 2009, 10:49:49 PM West Coast finally checking in.

Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: clayharmony on March 11, 2009, 06:17:55 AM I think Adam is the 'annointed' one...what part of undiscovered talent he fits, I haven't a clue...but there's no denying his talent...
Quite disappointed in song selections...good grief...Michael Jackson has many great ones... Still love Scott...though it seemed like things weren't in sync sound wise...something sounded quite off to me...and the selection...can one say, boring! however he's certainly talented...and that last fellow...he's got some piano chops, folks... Of course, the most poised of the gals...Lil R...but, let's use Clay's tempo, Please!!

FRANKIE, I'm with you the judges have been pushing Megan from the start, I guess because she looks good, her talent is not excessive as far as I can see. Maybe they like her tattoo!!!!!!

Other faves were Danny and Scott. The guys rock - the girls, nah, not so much!! Can't wait to see what the new change is tonight. And to see Kelly - love her too!! Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Tiffany on March 11, 2009, 08:39:24 AM Loved Adam the best too. He was hot. :thud Black or White was the perfect song for him. Hope Paula is right he'll make it into the finals. :cross
Also liked Danny but I'm not crazy about him. I love the P.Y.T. song and he was funny with his dancing. I really liked Lil, Alexis and Alison with the girls. They got some strong voices. I also liked Kris and Matt. I still like Anoop but he didn't do well. Think Jorge might leave. He was the worst of the night IMO. Thought Jasmine was boring so don't care if she goes either. Megan was cute but she picked a bad song. Vote For The Worst picked her so won't be surprised if she stays cause of them. I think the surprise might be you know how on So You Think You Can Dance they dance for your lives? I think whoever is at the bottom tonight might sing for their lives and the judges might decide who stays and who goes. Just a guess. Could be wrong. It was a rumor I heard. Can't wait for Kelly Clarkson tonight either Lori. I got her new CD and it's awesome. Going to see her on tour in August. Looking forward to it. Thanks Michelle for all you do and enjoy reading everyone's comments every week. Going to be an interesting season.

The change up this season is... "The Judges Save" Up until the Top 5, the judges can save a contestant just ONCE. All the judges have to agree to the save. The "save" can only be used ONCE the entire time, once used it cannot be used again the rest of the season. And when it is used no one will be voted off that night BUT the next week TWO contestants will be sent home. Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 11, 2009, 06:05:34 PM So, basically, the judges get to overrule the audience vote. :shrug

I wish I had time to participate in this thread while the show is actually on! I think the contestants that left were probably the right ones (there were a couple of others that could just have easily have left - Megan, for one). Since I still get Google alerts about Clay (haven't stopped them since I stopped helping with the News) and since Clay is mentioned in every article about Adam, I did get those photos of Adam and his boyfriend :para A touch too graphic for me. I wonder how he will be treated if and when the photos come to light for everyone. It is great, however, to see Adam's parents in the audience every week supporting their child :clap He is really talented - I will go way out on a limb and predict that it will be an Adam/Danny final that will rival the Clay Ruben final (how is that for a prediction! :lol :wink ) And Simon needs to get over his dislike for country music - it is atually music that still sellls!!!!! And country stars all know how to treat their fans! (Other people we know could take lessons from them). :zip And a lot of "young" country is rock based - I think country week will be O.K.! Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: Sundancer on March 12, 2009, 10:22:43 AM Quote I did get those photos of Adam and his boyfriend :para A touch too graphic for me. I wonder how he will be treated if and when the photos come to light for everyone. They have come to light. Contestants need to disclose early on what, if any, sort of information may be learned about them from sources legally accessible to the public, such as criminal records and the internet. It's to keep AI ahead of any surprises they might have to deal with, like topless photos, arrests, etc. Apparently, being gay on AI is no longer verboten.

I forgot to say that I hated Kenye West last night (and every other night). I have hated him (and there are not many people that I do dislike) since 2003 when he and Clay were both brand new to the business and they were both nominated for the same award (some sort of fan favorite award - can't remember which one) - I will never forget how insulted Mr. West was to be nominated with Clay. But I loved seeing Kelly Clarkson on Idol again. I did watch the first season, and voted for her. I love her music, and the fact that she seems to have remained a "real" person. Title: Re: AI Season 8: Top 13 - Week of 3-10-09 - Discussion and Spoilers Post by: corbet on March 12, 2009, 01:04:02 PM Frankie, I thought Kenya West was terrible last night. Everyone one of the contestants had a better voice than he.It was the first time I have seen him and I hope it is the last. I don"t care for Kelly"s music, I did see her and Clay when they toured together I like the fact she has stayed grounded, she seems like a nice person. It will be interesting to see if you are right about the Danny/ Adam finale.

I wasn't referring to Idol's opinion. I don't think the photos have become public knowledge yet, though, unless you are an Adam fan and have gone looking for information on him. I haven't noticed the photos in any major newspaper, magazine, or on any of the entertainment shows (although I surely could have missed them). When I went to visit my Mom, it was as though Clay did not exist, because she did not have (or want) a computer. I think we all (think we) know so much about Clay because we are on fan sites and read Clay news. I am interested to see what information will make the headlines about Adam and the other contestants - judging from past magazines, the Idol 8 contestants should be getting more and more press time every week.
