Thanks Loree, It doesn't appear that anybody has taken risks with their song choices this week but perhaps there will be some good arrangements. I am looking forward to seeing what Ryan can do with Paint It Black. Queen songs are usually easy for women but very difficult for men and I always think it takes guts for a man to give one a try. Storm should have no trouble with We Are the Champions but I would have enjoyed seeing what Lukas could do with it.

Hmmm...Lukas and Radiohead? I hope he understands that this song is better serviced with a non-strained voice. Can he do anything but? I hope so. He was a favorite at the beginning of the show and is slowly slipping down the ranks for me.Same can be said for Toby. I don't think his song choice this week will highlight his abilities. Truthfully, I'm looking forward to Zayra's performance. DavidBowie might be the perfect fit for her. Finally, this will undoubtedly be Jill's week to go. Mother Mother will be her undoing. I can just sense it.

Dilana - Won't Get Fooled Again (The Who) I think she will be awesome with this song. I'm surprised no one else wanted it.Jill - Mother Mother (Tracy Bonham) I don't envision liking anything from Jill at this point. Ryan - Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones) ...and on a lighter note, Ryan does paint it black. Storm - We Are the Champions (Queen) Wow, big risk from Storm. Neither JD or Jordis could really pull it off last season. Zayra - All the Young Dudes (David Bowie/Mott the Hoople) Maybe she could borrow Bowie's Ziggy Stardust outfit? Josh - Interstate Love Song (Stone Temple Pilots) - with Tommy on drums I get the feeling I will hate this. He will try to add his "soul" sound to STP. I anticipate much cringing. Magni - The Dolphin's Cry (Live) Magni always does a good job. I don't know this song but given other Live songs, I would guess it is a good fit. Patrice - Instant Karma (John Lennon) I'm not sure what Patrice could do at this point to Wow anyone. She's just kind of blah. Lukas - Creep (Radiohead) He will be totally awesome, or totally suck. His solo rehearsals didn't sound to bad when he actually tried to sing. Toby - Burning Down the House (Talking Heads) Bad song choice for him. It's a quirky song. Can Toby do quirky? Oddly enough this might have been the perfect song for Zayra.

Oh, I'm on the Lukas love train already. I'm just not "completely" riding it. I guess you could say that I got one foot on board and the other foot getting dragged on the tracks. While Lukas has never been at the top of any of my lists, he's one of the four contestants this year whose performances I'm looking forward to watching every week. It's just that I prefer being able to listen to the lyrics of the song and not, uhmmm... melodic mumbling.

Storm - We Are the Champions (Queen) Dilana - Won't Get Fooled Again (The Who)The two leading ladies tackle great songs. This should tell us which one will be in the lead until the end. Magni - The Dolphin's Cry (Live) Lukas - Creep (Radiohead) Toby - Burning Down the House (Talking Heads) Similarly these three choices should tell us which is the leading man. They aren't classic rock songs, both "Creep" and "Dolphins..." have fluctuations in the intensity that should reveal who can deliver. Toby's choice puts him at a disadvantage. Creepy Lukas should shine. The rest, who only can hope for exposure at this point:
Ryan - Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones) What??? I don't see it. Jill - Mother Mother (Tracy Bonham) Maybe she can save herself. Zayra -All The Young Dudes (Mott The hoople) Best choice for her. She has to deliver on a song that has no gadgets. Josh - Interstate Love Song (Stone Temple Pilots)Don't see it here either. the guy must be desperate. Patrice - Instant Karma (John Lennon) Bye-Bye Patrice. 24 hour voting Karma is gonna get her!

Dilana said she never heard the song Won't Get Fooled Again. Does she know who The Who is?

Oh yes, I remember the song now. Thanks for the link. I liked it when if first came out. It was played on the hard rock stations, though as more of her material was released I came to think of her more as a Top 40 type artist.

Seems like a pretty good song. Very "Live-ey" with the slow verse and the high intesity chorus. Could be good. What do you cut out to get to 90 seconds, though? The verses seem pretty long and sort of drawn out. We want to get to the rockin part.

Is it just me, or does this week's crop of songs have others already bored? Maybe its just me.But otherwise, some thoughts. Dilana - can she do anything other than incredible? I have no worries. Storm - This has me a bit worried. Queen is difficult for anyone other than Freddie Mercury to do. I think its almost impossible to take a Queen song and not sound karaoke to a degree. Its Freddie Mercury. Nobody can do Freddie Mercury. Lukas - Glow, i love that song too. I think he can redeem himself this week. This would be the ideal time for him to relax his voice, and truly sing. This song does match his vocal style and his gravelly voice. These are the only three that have me intrigued this week. For the others... Toby keeps saying he's going to "bring it" and "crush it" for Jason. "Burning Down The House"???? Zayra - there is nothing to say. Patrice - i like her voice, but Instant Karma? She should have taken Interstate Love Song. geekboy

That's what they said last week. Some homework, writing the melody and lyrices for a SN song. Must be for performing sometime in the future, not this week.

Dilana - Won't Get Fooled Again (The Who) I don't know this song, and don't know much by The Who.Jill - Mother Mother (Tracy Bonham) Anything Jill does will iritate me. She should have no problem oversinging this & killing me. Ryan - Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones) I'm excited for this. Mig did ok with it last year, but it's a song that desrves a good serious rocker (which Mig was not). Ryan should excel. Storm - We Are the Champions (Queen) Gawd I'm sick of this song. Queen & Nirvana should be off the Rock Star list NOW. Zayra - All the Young Dudes (David Bowie/Mott the Hoople) Should be enteraining. Bowie & Zayra were made for eachother. Josh - Interstate Love Song (Stone Temple Pilots) - with Tommy on drums I love this song & hope Josh does well. Should be awesome to see Tommy play on a great tune. Magni - The Dolphin's Cry (Live) He should do really well with this song. Live seems to fit his vocals. Patrice - Instant Karma (John Lennon) Hm. I think vocally she'll do ok. I'm just getting tired of her. Lukas - Creep (Radiohead) Please do this well Lukas. Please. Toby - Burning Down the House (Talking Heads) This could either be genius or a disaster.

Zayra.....All The Young Dudes??!!......I can't wait. Really. I hope she can pull it off. But it's a sure thing it'll be entertaining.Lukas....Creep...I hope he sings the song and the song doesn't sing him. That's a risk.....even for Lukas. I don't think he's in nearly the same league as Radiohead....and I'd hate to see him "make it his own"..... Toby...Burning Down the House.....I'm sorry to say I see room for him in the bottom 3 with this...I hope I'm wrong and he "rocks"it. I predict Patrice will bomb Instant Karma (another great song).... Really looking forward to this show!

If Lukas can do Creep justice, I'll be converted. i have never felt him, but we'll see...Based on song selection, I think the bottom 3 will be: Jill (I love Mother Mother, don't think she can do it well) Josh (STP hasn't gone over well so far, more of what the band doesn't want) Patrice (ok, I don't know this song but based on other comments, she seems more likely than Zayra to be in the bottom). And I think Burning Down the House could give Toby a chance to show personality, which I think he has lacked thus far. I don'nt know The Dolphin's Cry either, but I don't care for Live, and expect a competently dull performance here. Also from Ryan. Paint It Black is, meh, whatever. Easy to sing, hard to stand out singing. Storm should be good. Not familiar with Dilana's song either, but I'm sure she'll do well.
