For once Zayra has actually impressed me. I have no clue what she was singing but it sounded beautiful. It was nice to see her in a less weird outfit and sounding just as equally weird.
Her song was absolutely beautiful - I would listen happily, even thought I don't understand enough Spanish to get the lyrics... But it really was not Supernova style, I wonder how voters will react?She definitely showed that she has a great songwriting talent and a lovely voice, but I wonder if this will show the band that she's not the right style for them (kinda like Josh doing his own thing)?
Just wondering, though I would totally listen to a CD of her singing that style!
Rainy Days (English Version of Lluvia De Mar)Rainy days (sing over the sea)
Dripping dry over my wet skin
There's no pain while I'm sinking down
You stay still, then you push me back toWhere I really want to stay
Your crazy waves hitting my hungry hell
Until you make me want it.Wait. I see you now.
(Still, I can not make you go away)
Wait. You bring the sea
That's filling up my room with everything.You're the wind. Fly over my skin.
Bring warm breath. Break up this silence.
Look at me eternally damn to you. To your memoryThat follows me everywhere I go
And promises that I will get to know your mystery.
Wait. I see you now.
I don't know how to make you go away.
Wait. You bring the sea that's
Filling up my room with everything.You follow me everywhere I want to go.
You show me things that I don't want to know.
You break me like rainy days.
Wait. I see you now
I don't know how to make you go away.
Wait. You bring the sea
That's filling up my room
With everything.
Don't let me go. No.Why?

Very nice. Thank you, boner.
Good job boner. An actually some pretty damn awesome lyrics IMO.
Thanks for the post, Boner. After listening to her originals on her MySpace and last night's song, I know I am buying one of her CD's (the Spanish one & I have to see if I can find it).I have a lot of CDs in Italian, so the language thing doesn't bother me at all. Beautiful lyrics/music don't need a translator IMO.
Wow - I can't stand Zayra but gotta give props -this is a beautiful song.*Come join the coolest club in town!:

Amazing.Too good for the band.
Maybe so. Maybe no.I still think we viewers don't know what the Boys are thinkin'. It seems that Jason has been fighting to keep Z around, so maybe there's something there that they want that we're not catching on to.

Very well done. Magni is safe!!!
I like Magni, I love his voice, but this performance was kind of boring to me.
Exactly! That is how I feel about Magni. He is boring on stage. Nobody can deny he has a good voice. But there is something missing when he performs. I have also heard that he has performed all the songs he has picked before. He has not had to learn a song yet for the competition. So he isn't really challenging himself yet.
He is boring on stage. Nobody can deny he has a good voice. But
there is something missing when he performs.My dh said the same thing, that he's a terriffic singer but not very captivating. He said lst night was kinda lounge singer-ish. Not sure I agree but that was his opinion.
His vocals were great, as usual, but there was something missing.
I had never heard this song before, but I thought Magni was very good. I enjoyed it.
Meh. I had to watch on tape tonight and I fast-forwarded through most of it.

Really tough song to attempt. Gotta give him props for that. I guess he did it as good as anyone could. Not a song you can really make "your own". At least IMHO
Meh. If I was attending a live performance of hers, I would spend all my time at the bar.
*yawn*Was somebody singing?
Meh is just about right.
*Yawn* During her performance I jumped onto the site & started posting. Sting would NOT be impressed.
Ugh! Move, Patrice! M-O-V-E!!! Don't stand in one place for every single performance. Does she know that the stage has a left and a right side? She is such a snoozefest. I'll be at the bar with Arkie.![]()
>Ugh! Move, Patrice! She is such a snoozefest.
>I'll be at the bar with Arkie.Make that a double for me!
I keep thinking about something Dave said to Patrice a few weeks ago, that she is more "Lilith Fair" than "OzFest". I think she is talented but obviously not right for SuperNova.
He said that to Jenny.![]()

Oh yeah. Lukas nailed it. (I am going to post my thoughts before I hear the band).
I got chills.
One of his better performances, I really liked it. I didn't like the falsetto, though, but the rest was great!
*swoon*
*lick* *lick* *lick*
*wipes saliva off television screen*
*shoves Glowie*You've already moved to the Ryan camp. I've decided to take Lukas for myself.
No way, baby. LOL. I have a lovely sammich going.Attention Posse: I have not moved camps!
Ahem. You do not need two of them. Lemme have Ryan. Pretty please...
Yes, I do need two of them. But since I love you and ahkie you can go to the outside of my sammich on your respective sides. What can I say? I'm fair like that.
Works for me...
Works for me, too...
Just to be clear, you're on the Lukas side and I am on the Ryan side, OK...
OK. Unless I decide to get on the HD side.
Can't argue with that.
You do have tan lines, right?![]()
Yeah, but it's a farmer tan. That's OK, right?
Well, with you all fighting over Ryan & Lukas, I guess that leaves Toby all to me. Toby is the perfect other half of my JD-Toby Sammich . . . tasty.
Hey Catty, can you and I make a sammich out of Toby?![]()
Looking at Toby, I think he could definitely hold is own with 2 of us coming at him![]()
MmmmmmHmmmmmm. So, do you want the front or back?

Oh, I think a rotation is in order for this sammich![]()
I was thinking of you, Glow, while I was watching Lukas and was thinking of how damn cute he looked last night. He actually looked happy and even smiled. Quite adorable...quite yummy... He doesn't give me the gutteral "I want to devour you" feeling that Ryan does..but I certainly do like him a lot...
I must be missing something. I did not like it at all.
He was the best tonight. What was he covering up on his arm, or is that what the kids are doing today. Tattoos are out, black duct tape is in!

Next week, I'm coming to your house to watch and I'm going to lick your television.
I love this side of Lukas much more than what he originally gave us. I love that I can understand him more and he uses his voice to it's true potential. Plus, he's so damn hot in the different, weird and intense way.
He's all yours sisters. No fighting for him from me.Can I still play in this forum if I say I think he sucked last night....and don't really like him all that much??
Yeah, you can say that here. He's never really impressed me either. I guess I just didn't get him from his very first performance. So many people said, "Wow." I said, "So what?"Based on the snottiness he showed in the first couple of episodes, I think he would be a perfect fit with the band.
(Sorry, Glow.)
>Based on the snottiness he showed

>the band.Touche. ITA. I think they have their heart set on Dilana though. Wonder if she'd sport a mohawk??
Is it my imagination or is Sotrm sucking right now?
Watching the Webisode I had 2 big questions . . . WHY was this song on the board for this week and WHY did Storm choose it.It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but still a bit of a wreck.
I was really surprised that this was one of the song choices. *boggle*The whole time I was listening to her, I was picturing the scene from The Replacements when they were all dancing in the jail cell to this song.
She did what she could with it, but I was still hearing the disco.
Check out Cake's version of this song. She could/should have been better.
I downloaded Cake's version on your recommendation. I like it --- but I still like Storm's boozy version too. To be cliche, I thought that she "made it her own."
but I still like
>Storm's boozy version too.
>To be cliche, I thought
>that she "made it her
>own."
I do too HD.
Check out Cake's version of this song. She could/should have been better.I just did, and I have to say it isn't any better then hers. So I can stand by my assertion that to a large (npi) degree the problem lies with the material and not the performance.
So you found it? Sorry, I was away from my desk taking a "break from work".
Yeah, I found a 30 second clip Yahoo Music.Sorry, I was away from my desk taking a "break from work".
I seem to be doing a lot of that on Wednesdays as well.
I loved it. The band can go to hell.
WTF? The guys trash Patrice because she didn't play around with the arrangement, then they trash Storm because she did. Her performance was a hell of a lot better than Zayra and Patrice.
![]()
I know. I would respect them more if they were consistent in their commentary instead of bitching just to bitch.I think the winner of this whole thing will actually lose by being shackled to the band for a world tour.
LAST EDITED ON 08-15-06 AT 11:35 PM (EST)What???? I thought this was the most embarassing performance on the series EVER. It was terrible in everyway. What was she thinking? Guess there are people out here who think she can do no wrong, but this performace SUCKED!
I like Stormy. She is my fave female in the comp. But that was horrible. She had a bad bad bad performance. She acted lost up on the stage and just seemed like she was trying to get it over. She knew it wasn't good and just flopped through the performance.
I have to agree - up to now, I've really liked Storm, she's been one of my faves. But last night was just not good. Especially toward the end when she started really slurring things - she sounded drunk. That may have been an attempt to push the rock quotient a bit, but didn't work, IMHO.
Thank you! Storm is FREAKIN AWESOME and she did what she could. She is a much better singer and performer than either of the other two.
Thank you HD, that was my thoughts exactly. I think the guys were on crack last night.
I totally agree. I thought she took a song that is pretty annoying and weak and made a hell of an arangement. I've always hated that song, but I totally dug Storn's take on it.
But, the four of us had a great time.
It took me awhile to get used to the arrangement, but once I did I was digging it. The band and I are not agreeing on much tonight!
The band and
>I are not agreeing on
>much tonight!What's to agree on?? Like death and taxes.....Dilana will rock...Lukas..will rock... It's a sure thing every week.
Nope, not your imagination. Dave echoed my words exactly. I had just told the wife, "I hated it."
I liked it. Hell, it was Gloria Gaynor disco, for Pete's sake!!! I thought she did just fine with it.

Ugh....I agree with my fiance.......she butchered the song. There was no excuse for that performance. In my opinion, Storm's level has gone down and I expected much more from her.
Mediocre.
Loved the vest. Hated the T-shirt.
I thought it was pretty darn good. Didn't notice the vest & T-shirt, 'cause I just picture him running around the pool.Way to go, Toby!!
I liked the beginning. Middle was eh. End was cool with him playing the bongos.

Vocals were good but not enough to excite me, he's the male version of Patrice.
Not bad, not great IMO. It felt to me like he was rushing a some points, but the band didn't seem to notice/care. I liked the bongos - original.Did anyone else notice the shot of Jason while Toby was playing bongos? We couldn't tell if he enjoyed it or was laughing at toby, then they didn't show any comments from Jason.
Nice!!!!!!!!That song was made for Ryan.
Smoldering.Plus, I want that coat!

I'll admit, I get confused easily, but didn't he sing "In the Air Tonight"?Either way, it was amazing.
Yes, he sang "In the Air Tonight", twas I that was confused and I was thinking straight when I typed the note. (The song should be called Hold On though, or maybe Old On"
If I'm not mistaken, I believe the lyrics are "Oh Lord", not "Hold on".
So they are (I checked). Lucky for me I am not a contestant - I've been singing along Hold On ever since I heard that song and I always thought it was Phil's British accent making him sing Old On.
Really?? "Oh Lord"? I've been thinking "hold on" all this time, too.

I always thought it was "hold on" as well, but last night I heard Ryan sing "Oh Lord" and I thought, cool, I like that better!
Yes, he did.
Yes, it was.
Dayum! Ryan is trying to knock Toby off the "hotness" pedestal I have him on. Ryan's 2nd best performance.
Reminded me why I've become a Ryan fan. After not liking last week, I was totally on board this week. Yum.
Great song for Ryan. He can be totally creepy and it works. LOL. Loved the intensity.
I agree. He is now "Mr. Intensity" to me...loved it.
Another good one. Ryan's really kicking it into gear lately.And Glowie, again, ick.

I thought he sounded off when he started singing. DH and I looked at each other and cringed. But then he seemed to get into it and the rest was great. But I think he had a bad start.
He did a great job, but dh and I were too busy figuring out who he reminds us of -- Jeff Goldblum (a younger, hotter version). Anyone else see it?Seriously, I'm glad he didn't fight harder for the original. I haven't heard his own stuff, but he really nailed it last night. The song really matched his intensity level without him going overboard.
Jeff GoldblumThat's it! Thank you - perfect comparison, and it was driving me nuts!

I guess she was OK and I sang along, but it is because I love that song.Sigh - I miss Harry Chapin! Perhaps too much to enjoy the song by anyone else.
That was great, the song suited her voice perfectly.
I have to agree with her doing a great job on that one.I see three ways that she doesn't win this:
1. She quits.
2. She forgets the words to a song when/if she's in the bottom three.
3. The band decides they don't want a woman fronting the band.I didn't care for her at first, but she's become my favorite by far.

If by "perfectly" you mean safe, I agree.
I loved it. One of my favorite songs, and she's one of my favorite singers, so I thought it was great.
Once again to the band I say "Huh?" I mean, it was ok, but I wasn't moved at all, and I certainly didn't think it was the performance of the night.
That was certainly NOT the best performance of the night. As far as I'm concerned, Dilana has plateaued. I get irritated at the band for giving her a pass on the same things the others get called out for. Every week now, she gives basically the same performance. She sings the song well but she hits the same growly high note almost on cue and says "Yeah!" or "Come On!" every time. She has become cookie cutter and they just fall all over themselves to praise her for doing the same thing every week.
Oh, come on people. If you don't see it now you never will. She is the most talented person on this season by far. If she does not win there is something wrong. Her performance was by far the best of the night. And this was the week I cemented her as the winner of the gig.
I just have some doubt about someone in the competition who is not familiar with "Won't Get Fooled Again." The week she sang that song, Dilana made the comment that she didn't know that song. How does any serious rock singer not know this Who classic?She also showed a weakness with her original song. Of course, there are two HUGE egos in Supernova, so maybe they really don't want anybody else to write songs. That criteria may just be lip service.

This aint American Idol.
What in the world are you talking about? What part of my post made you reference (shudder) American Idol. My point was simply that I don't think Dilana has recently changed it up from week to week like the band is constantly pushing some of the rawkers to do.In another thread, I said that I see her as being only one of 3 that I think have a shot at winning this thing. She wouldn't be my choice, but I could see her winning. I just think they let her skate by sometimes when they should call her on a couple of things.
Not bad. She screwed up the words a couple of times, once where it changed the entire meaning of the song.

I don't know, I think it was bad. Dilana didn't get the song at all. And messing up the words? Come on. I like her - she's done good before - but this week she deserves to be in the bottom three.

I loved it. Dilana never fails me. If it wasn't for her and Lukas I don't think I would be all that enticed to watch the show.
Ditto to that! But I will also toss in Ryan. A final three of Ryan, Lukas, & my girl Dilana would be a fantastic finale.
Way over rated. Obviously IMO
Yes Dilana is over rated by the band and Dave. I would just like to see some kind of fairness with the critical comments. Dilana isn't perfect. Yet to hear them talk she is. They hold her up as the example to everyone else on the show. I just don't get it. She hasn't impressed me in weeks. If this is who Supernova wants to front their band. I won't be buying tickets to their concerts. I could not watch/listen to her for a couple hours. But it is their band.

I find it questionalbe myself that ppl with such impressive musical knowledge (especially Dave) find Dilana so astounding.....but then what do I know?? So do many on this board. If there was a difference in the internet popularity from the band....then I may think it's "who she knows"....but obviously that's not the case. Don't know??.....
I'm not buying tickets myself....it is their band.
Don't let the door hit you in the ass tomorrow night.
Yep, definitely Patrice's time to go bye-bye.
Gotta agree with you there. I thought Paztrice's performance was the weakest. Storm embarrased herself (my opinion of course) but at least she wasn't dull and Storm has a number of great performances behind her.
Word.
Yup.
Yep. But she's the last of the real dregs. (I know, I know, Zayra's still around, but they...esp. Jason...like her. Maybe she IS what they're looking for.)After this, we start losing really good ones.

LAST EDITED ON 08-16-06 AT 12:19 PM (EST)Au contraire, mon frere. Zayra did quite well this week, and Patrice was just meh. It's Patrice's turn to go.
Zayra will probably go next week, although as I posted above, I hear that Jason's been pushing to keep her, so there may be more to it than we know.
Regardless, we're getting down to the point where good ones will be in the Bottom 3 from now on.

But Zayda just could be "zany"' enough for them to make a differnece (if not ..a statement for sure) If she could survive "All The Young Dudes" she's doing something to someone for "stay" power. AND...I'm not convinced the viewers are throwing votes her way for "shock value" anymore. I think there are those that really are starting to like her.
I keep thinking that Supernova is not going to go for the Chili Peppers or Crue or Metallica sound, like many think, but something completely different. That's where Z might fit in.

No real surprise there.I can't decide who to vote for. It is between Ryan, Lukas and Zayra for me. Will have to rewatch the ep now.
