1. The girl who had bronchitis.
I don't know their names. "Shadow of Your Smile" is one of my very favorite songs and whoever sang it ruined it. Talk about over-singing!

3. She sang last. The judges fawned over her but Simon hated it and so did I.

5. Irish, carly-simon, girl who lost her dad, teen, rocker, tiny, and big hair. I won't be sorry to see

14. Yea, and she will probably do better in the long run.

I guess I was expecting more from plus size model, so I was a little more disappointed in her performance.

6. I like Asia'h and Alexandrea.
My least favorite is the rocker girl. She sounds like she has marbles in her mouth.

7. She didn't sound great last night, but she is one of my faves!
She seems like a true rocker gal.

8. Mine was the good-girl nanny who won't enter the darkness as Simon requested
However, in the grand "same as it ever was" that is American Idol she'll probably get voted off instead of the girl (Amy Davis) who's only talent seems to be her gravity defying assetts.

But a lot of them weren't.

17. Blonde curly hair. She kinda looks like Carly Simon. She
told the judges a while back that she had never seen a rated R movie. She claims to be a "good girl".

24. I generally skip the audition period so I haven't seen what she may be capable of
On a related note, I thought her version of "Happy Together" was better than the one the night before that the judges saw as some great reinvention of the song when all guy did was turn the amps to 11.

It amazes me how musically ignorant three long-term industry people can be when it comes to basic musical knowledge.

11. I loved Alexandrea
I thought she had the best relatinship to pitch (holy crap some of those girls had some serious intonation problems!), had personality, a strong voice...and she won me with the shoulder thing she did. :)

25. She's been doing this for a very long time...
I remember seeing her perform on Showtime at the Apollo when she was a little girl, maybe 7 years old, and the reason I remember her is because she corrected Steve Harvey on his pronunciation of her name, just like she did Ryan last night. Apparently, she's quite adamant about it. LOL

26. Oh funny!
Simon really liked her sass too, though he didn't have much good to say about her performance last night. I didn't agree with much of what he had to say about the performances last night, frankly. Oh well.

19. Go to the American Idol website to see the pics of the contestants.
Edited on Thu Feb-21-08 11:55 AM by azmouse
I had to use it to get the names. It's too early in the season for me to remember them.

21. Ooooh there's an Irish gal? I'm so partial to all things Irish lately.
:P

I was too busy talking on the phone all night, so I missed it again! Recorded, though...

No wait I did manage to hear two singers, but I wasn't too impressed.
