LAST EDITED ON 07-24-06 AT 09:45 AM (EST)Here's a post of mine from over there: For me, Dilana knocks herself down a peg or two every week. I loved her the first week. LOVED her. Since then, I like her less and less every time I see her. Maybe it has a lot to do with the mansion shows but I like to think I'm mature enough (*looks around giving evil eye*) to not let that sway me. But to me, her "Lithium", whatever the second song was, and "Zombie" were way too likey likey same same. I liked that she pulled the tambourine out in "Zombie" because at least that was something new. I'm really hoping I like her this week so I can say that my Love for Lukas hasn't blinded me totally to her highness. I also think it's the SP tongue baths she gets that turn me off a bit too. Too bad I have to endure more of that this week. They better lick all over Ryan and Storm this week. etf italics

She's just so manipulativeHmm must be an online reality house episode thing. Was planning on watching those but my dial-up connection is brutal for playing video. In a word ... buffering! When the video has to re-buffer itself every 3 or 4 seconds, just not worth the hair pulling it causes me. Tried to struggle threw this weeks song writing clinic and just got to frustrated. Closed it out after about my 25th buffer and only got maybe 2 1/2 minutes into the episode. Really need to go DSL one of these days. Actually if anyone knows of a blow-by-blow non-biased description of the house episodes, would love to know the link. Most I've found are just reactions and have a spin depending on if they do or don't like the particular contestant. I form my own opinions and don't want to be spun. And I'll keep that sidecar ready for ya Glow. Bet you would look fantastic with your hair blowing the breeze as you go for the ride

There are a few someones who see things that way.I was doing cartwheels over Lithium even though I love the song and HATE when people try to cover Nirvana. Oh come on we all KNOW the "band" will love it. I haven't heard it yet so I'm trying to reserve judgement until I do. I'm hoping to actually want to sit in that seat on Dilana's love train sidecar that I told DB I'd keep. The chick is a ticking timebomb. Makes for great television, I suppose. Her anger and aggression towards certain people *ahem*(though admittedly most probably a product of editing) is way uncalled for. White Rabbit was great. Phil is great.

You are so right about the Nirvana Songs. Lukas and Dilana are the only two with talent the rest just don't cut it for me. I feel like I am watching Spinal Tap 2006 sometimes.

Man, I hope Lukas COMPLETELY rearranges that song, because it is Number One (and no other song is even close) on my all-time most-hated song list. It's a bittersweet Barney Theme. Hate it, hat it, hate it. Worst. Song. Ever.

17. "Reality episode" |
I watch these with suspicion. I do not trust the MB editing. So what we see is not always what is really happening. I still don't like Jill though. She comes off as a little beyotch. And I don't think that is all editing.In this ep I was left with questions. Why did Dilana really choose Lukas? I get the feeling she feels he is her biggest competition and she did not want him on a team working against her. But yet the look on her face after Tommy praised Lukas for his part of the song. Well her look was sending daggers. And when Lukas was out by the pool supposedly drunk and not helping. There was someone else off camera to the left. We could see the bare feet on the chair. Who was that? They made it look like Lukas was out there alone talking to himself about Jill. But someone else was also out there taking a break. I really like how Storm was portrayed on this episode. And we saw Ryan get sneaky with Dana. He was sure steering her away from "I Alone" so he could have it. And she just thought he was helping her and suggesting Nirvana. I liked parts of all 3 songs the teams came up with. But without hearing the whole song it was hard to tell which was the best. Magni was definitely getting fed up with Jill. But then who wouldn't?

18. "RE: Reality episode" |
LAST EDITED ON 07-24-06 AT 10:43 PM (EST)oh yeah. There's evil editting in there for sure. Jill can't get off my television fast enough to please me. Yep yep. Right there with you on Dilana. (I'll elaborate more later. I feel lazy right now. Plus I need a beer. Can I get you anything? *grin* He is soooooo cute.) I think it was most likely Storm out by the pool with Lukas. The feet kinda gave it away. She has nice feet. More Storm and Ryan makes Glowie happy. I thought all three songs sounded pretty good. With Toby's being the weakest. <-- that seems to be the popular opinion (tough for me to say since Jill was in Magni's group)
For those who didn't see it... They were divided into three groups. The three who had the encore got to pick the teams. Dilana first since she had the first encore. She picked Lukas for manipulative conniving reasons. Toby next. He picks Phil. Magni next. He picks Josh. Lukas and Dilana pick Ryan and Storm. Toby and Phil pick Patrice and Zazoo. Magni and Josh pick Jill and get "stuck with" Dana - her words not mine. Though it's appropriate and I would have said it if she didn't. The teams are given a track of SN music and told to write lyrics. Lukas whips out the chorus in .2 seconds and wanders around drunk the rest of the time. Dilana gets irritated and can't focus. Ryan and Storm want to kill people. Jill thinks she's brilliant and keeps disturbing Magni with her shrillscreamsinging. He asks her politely to STFU. She doesn't. He asks her not so politely. She whines and cries and stomps outside. Lukas looks at the bare feet and says "ugh. I couldn't be on that team." Then Josh (being the cool mature guy that he is) wrangles her up and they finish the song. Patrice hits play and loses the track. (we weren't shown much of Toby's group) Lukas keeps going into Magni's group's room for beer. They all yell "There is no beer. We just told you that fifteen minutes ago." Lukas drank all the beer. He's sooo cute. Not because he drank all the beer, mind you. Just his actions during this episode. I want to cuddle him. Anyway. Dana belts out a verse she wrote. Sounded pretty good. Magni and Josh told her as much. Jill pooh poohed it and whined some more. "I couldn't understand what you were saying." (somebody please get her off of my television) Lukas didn't want any part of writing the rest of their song. So we're lead to believe. I think the more likely full story is that he was told they're using his chorus and they all wanted a hand in the writing. And rather than sit around the room, he went out for cigarettes and beer runs. They perform the songs in front of SN. TLee "gets chills" with DLSR's song and asks who wrote the chorus (Lukas wrote the chorus AND the melody, tyvm) and they all point to Lukas. TLee says something complimentary (sorry this is all memory from last night. I haven't watched it yet today.) and Dilana shoots daggers and fireballs out of her eyeballs at Lukas. TPPZ's song sounds cool. Jason calls it eclectic (I think it was Jason. Or was that me? Have to rewatch.). That's a fitting word. It was cool. MJJD's song is very harmonized. Kinda nice. Would have been better if you could hear anybody but Shrill. Somebody said they thought Magni was a nicer guy than that and they were kind of put off. To me, this proved how annoying Jill must really be to get on Magni's nerves. Guy's a total sweetheart. ETA: The only real thing of note about the rest of the episode is song selection and you can all see that up there. Phil opens a letter from Gilby that says whoever does "Brown Sugar" will get him on guitar. This doesn't cause as much of a stir as I believe it should. Ryan and Dilana both want "I Alone". It's sentimental for Ryan. First song he performed live (I believe that's what it was. Have to rewatch.) Dana says she wants Nirvana or "I Alone". Ryan suggests she do Nirvana. heh. She takes his advice. Storm says she'll do "Anything Anything" since nobody else knows it (nor did I).

19. "RE: Reality episode" |
Good recap Glow.It was kind of funny for Dilana to have her little all-in-the-name-of-music speech last week and then she pick's Lukas specifically to make sure that if his song is best, so is hers. I liked all of the songs but I wish we could see/hear more of them. Jill is a spoiled little brat. She mentioned her Courtney Hole dress a couple of times during song selection trying to make a joke about White Wedding. I'm not sure anyone but the microphone heard her. Why did Josh go get her? Why? Let her pout on her own. Maybe they didn't want a Pretty Vegas on their hands. Keep together. Storm is awesome. I have never heard the song she will sing, so I can't wait to hear her do it. Then listen to the original on line and compare. Ryan doing I Alone seems fitting. Live is one of those bands that insists they are not ultra-serious but always come across that way. Much like Ryan. (I'm not implying I don't like Live, I like them very much.) The Lukas edit did seem heavy handed and deliberate. I think that's all I think for now....good night.

I know Glow doesn't want to believe it, but... the editing can only alter the reality so much. And the fact that both Storm and Ryan were annoyed, too makes me think that Lukas was, in fact, being pretty much a dick. Ryan I could see getting annoyed easily, but Storm seems a bit too much the embodiment of her LOVER tattoo to be easily cheesed off.

You don't offend me at all. I'm just not as huge a fan of Lukas as the weeks have worn on as I was in week one. My progression with him seems to be mirroring yours with Dilana.

Maybe her doing Time After Time will put you back on with both feet planted for good. Not saying you need to help drive her gravytrain, but it's still way to early to be getting off.
