]]> Comment on Top 16 Girls Performance Night: Stable At The Top, Muddled Everywhere Else by Mary http://www.theidolguy.com/season-nine/top-16-girls-stable-at-the-top-muddled-everywhere-else/comment-page-1/#comment-272 Mary Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:57:15 +0000 http://www.theidolguy.com/?p=543#comment-272 You're thinking of another Animals song, "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood," that Santa Esmerelda covered and was on the Kill Bill soundtrack. It seems that people are universal in calling this Paige and Katie's week to depart. The final round of semi-final eliminations tend to be on the mark, at least as far as I'm concerned, so I hope America agrees. I was particularly worried about Katelyn...she certainly deserves to be in the top 12 and the picked a horrible time to have her worst performance. Unfortunately her performance wasn't horrible enough to scare her fans into voting for her and she was right in the middle of the hour - I just hope that she generated enough goodwill the past couple weeks to save herself.

All 3 have their own bands. Lee has also put out a couple of albums that are still available on iTunes. Not sure if the other 2 put together albums, but both had original music online before the season started. Lilly Scott, Lee Dewyze, and Casey James also have pro music backgrounds.

Siobhan Magnus is someone who I think deserves to go far. Her attitude and manner of speaking is delightful. I groaned out loud when I heard she was singing an Aretha song, but it worked out well for her. Technical note: I wish your web guy could increase the font size a little on the comments. I can barely read what I am typing. I didn’t think I was going to warm up to Katelyn Epperly this season, but the girl is growing on me.

I know he is talented, but I don't believe the Idol competition is the correct place for him at this time. I agree with you on Todrick, Idol Guy.

I agree that Alex was the most improved - but that's not saying much. I too think Jermaine will be sent home. I think John will too - possibly Aaron. Who knows tho - last week I just knew it would be Alex and John! Tyler shocked me! Same with the ladies. Janell over Haeley? WOW - Happy idoling!

If I hear another person describe Adam's singing as shreiking/screaming I think I will become ill. Please check out San Diego opera professionals critique of Adam's performance. You will find, they, who actually KNOW about music, prize his tenor and falsetto ability and give him very good reviews although I do not understand why they did not critique some of his prior work such as "Is Anybody Listening" and "Come to me, Bend to Me" which are just beyond fabulous. Isn't it knit-picking a little to crack on the "white suit" I guess anything is fair game, but this is actually supposed to be about "singing ability i.e TALENT. Godspeed, Glamey! "You got it!"
