I can't be the only person who thought that the riff in that song sounded an AWFUL lot like the opening to the Sesame Street theme.

Think about it.

But, the four of us had a great time.

I thought Toby rocked it. At first I was meh and then it took a little bit to get into it. I am with several others hear that feel Gilby is not rockin it!

I am, however, giving SuperNova a chance to prove themselves. Its not like those 3 guys have been playing together more than this last year or even had much of a chance to get into a studio together to hash through everything. I agree whole heartedly that this band needs some decent song writing. I just feel they are building a band and don't have an established song base yet. Sometimes it just takes few to find that groove.

While I loved JD and INXS I am enjoying the format of this show. I am rooting for the band to succede, I love Tommy and am enjoying the final 6 rockers.

I liked the song last night, and I thought Toby was a real good choice to sing that song. There were some parts that were less singing as talking on beat (not quite rapping though.) It was much better then the song last week. I also was not impressed with Dilana as much as quite a few people were.

Others have stated that this band should (hopefully) get better each week, as they get more comfortable and bring out their better matterial.

As far as the House Band being better then SN: I felt that the House Band was better then INXS last year too. However, INXS had nothing to prove as they had/have an extensive back catalog to draw from. If they were a little off from sitting on their butts for a while, then it isn't any big deal.

Supernova does not get the luxury of established credibility as a band, except from the past individual efforts of the members. So I have tried be a little more leinient in my criticism of the things we hear from them, becuase I am confident that when they get in the studio, they can tweak the song and lyrics with/for the singer they choose.

I thought Dilana fronting Supernova was mediocre, bland music with good looks.

Last night was also mediocre.

I like Toby and Dilana. I preferred Dilana with the band.

I totally agree with True and Silverstar....that song was crap! Whoever finishes "second" in this competition might be the real winner, as they won't have to tour with these losers, and perhaps with this exposure get a gig with a real band.

If they can't produce anything better than this junk they will be one and done.....one tour and splitsville....poor Tommy can always re-enroll at U. of Nebraska, and star in another crappy reality show. Gilby and Jason can then get gigs in a real rock band.

I wouldn't try to predict how long SN is gonna last but if they pick Toby I will buy the CD just for that song. We have listened to it about 10 times and love it. Still have no use for the first song, but that might have been the vocals.

Time to go post a correction to my Love List because Toby just climbed to the top of the pack.....

Both songs were crap. The music was fine. But the lyrics for both songs sucked beyond description.

Hopefully they haven't signed off on the lyrics. What they SHOULD do is hire Patrice as a lyricist. That is where she shines.

I had the same thought. Patrice was the best songwriter there, by far it seems, she just didn't have much stage presents.

And why not hire her, after all both Diana and Suzy contributed to the INXS album.

I liked this song a helluva lot better than the first. Probably because of the frontman but not totally the reason.

Summer siggy thanks to Syren!
