AMERICAN IDOL 9: TOP 6 Shania Twain Week

I love Shania's music so much. I am such a fan of her albums. I didn't think that it would be a great fit for Idol.

6. Lee Dewyze - You're Still The One: This is one of my favorite Shania songs. I think that Lee pretty much screamed the whole song. Can anyone else help me understand why he is one of the favorites in a singing competition? It was a very rough interpretation. Just sharp and then just flat. All over the place for me. I don't know what the judges are thinking.

5. Casey James - Don't: I think that this is definitely one of your better performances. I am still not a fan of your voice. But you did a good job with this song. I think that your weak vocals are getting in the way though. I do think that time is winding down for you.

4. Crystal Bowersox - No One Needs To Know: It was a good performance but for Crystal, it was subpar. It just felt like a performance that she just wanted to do to get it over with. For me, it was her worst performance but she is fine compared to her competition.

3. Aaron Kelly - You've Got A Way: Another classic Shania song. I liked Aaron on this song. I felt him. He was in his zone. It was probably one of my favorite performances by him.

2. Michael Lynche - It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing: He always delivers vocals for me. Definitely a real singer. Yea, he may be cocky but he can still back it up with something. The song fit very nicely in his voice. Good Job!!!!

1. Siobhan Magnus - Any Man Of Mine: Yes. I loved it. I know that a lot of people will hate it but I LOVED it!!!!! Her vocal tone was there. Her power and confidence was back. Amazing!!!! Please keep it up.


So for me, Siobhan came back with a vengeance. I am happy that she is back for her ballad rut. I think that Lee took a turn for the worse. Hard to tell who is going to go home this week. Casey was in the bottom last week and he had an okay performance. I may be his turn or it could be a shocker with Lee. I just hope that it isn't Siobhan, Crystal, or Michael. Those are my top 3.

AMERICAN IDOL 12: VEGAS GIRLS WEEK 1

This is how they should have been doing it from the start. I love that we get to hear the contestants before the voting rounds! Please do this every season (if it is still on). Lets start with our girls. I really feel like a female can win this year. We have so many amazing choices from all genres!!! My ranking goes from least to greatest: Kamaria Ousley - Mr. Know It All: Just horrible. Horrible song choice and you were under pitch the entire time. Crash and burn for realz!!! I really wish that you had picked something different since you name dropped like crazy during your interview. Jenny Beth Willis - Heaven, Heartache, and the Power of Love: Well it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. I had never heard this song before. I felt like it was not the right song choice for this competition and especially being the first one out of the gate. For some reason, it came off very talent show-ish. Good voice but horrible song choice. Isabelle - God Bless The Child: I didn't lo...

The Voice 10: Top 10

My apologies for the tardiness of this post. Busy life on the road with Ball In The House. Anyway, here are my thoughts about our Top 10. As always, I will rank the performances from least favorite to favorite. Daniel Passino  - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing : Really??? This song??? If you were going to do something completely different, I would have been on board. Such a bad bar karaoke performance. I am not a fan of your vocal tone with this song. When you went to your falsetto, it was a big ole' ball of NOPE. You didn't even prep for it. Your runs were sloppy and out of tune. Cringe worthy during the latter part of the performance. Just no! Paxton Ingram - It's All Coming Back To Me : Something about his tone really bothers. It is too whiney and immature. Especially on songs like this. It just doesn't sound mature enough to tackle a song like this. It was just "meh" to me. Nothing really sparkled but it didn't tank. Nick Hagelin - I Can't H...

Family Profile #3: My Oldest Brother (1 of 8)

Reference Name: Vietnam Date Of Birth: 6/23/58 Favorite Memory: Spending the night at his house after I had graduated from college to talk about life and what to expect. My oldest brother was not really there when I was growing up. I don't know a whole lot about him but I do know that he served in the Vietnam war. There were moments where I believed that he was crazy. He was a little violent when I was in high school. I thought that the war may have something to do with that issue. He married a woman from Africa. I never really liked her. She seemed like she only wanted him for the easy passage into the US. In about a year, they got divorced. They do share a child together. The child, who will call Viet Baby, has not been around me much. When we are together, she seems so smart and much like an adult. She is only 10. Well beyond her years in intelligence. Now back to my brother, he has become a lot more settled since the divorce. He is almost 50 years old and I want nothing b...
