Posted elsewhere, i'll copy here.Here is how i would assemble the 6. 1 - Bo. Perfect song selection, excellent vocals, stage-prescence-plus. 2 - Anthony. Go figure, the boy did better than most 3 - Scott. Go figure again, i actually liked it. It suited him well 4 - Vonzell. I again didn't think it was all that the judges raved about. I thought she was mostly off-key. 5 - Carrie. It was country, but again she was weak. And the whole "no stage prescence" thing. 6 - Constantine. Judges were absolutely correct. Go back to pop, and ditch the heavier rock. Look at that bottom 3. Amazing. geekboy

1. Bo - I would bet that this is the first time I placed him first on any list of mine, but overall, he smoked everyone else.2. Anthony - I liked his performance a lot, but I generally leave the room when he sings. 3. Vonzell - She was good. That one little bit in the middle was really great, but the rest was simply good. 4. Carrie - I like country Carrie, and I really appreciate the fact that she made an attempt to liven it up. She did not succeed so much, but trying meant a lot to me. 5. Scott - It was a bit awkward, and the song was lame as anything, but he wasn't as bad as: 6. Constantine - I wish I could rank this performance #2 (as in "Number Two" ifyaknowwhaddimean), but he really does belong on the bottom. It was like some sweet little lady saying, "Rock on" and singing a little Megadeth. He didn't have "rock voice," even though he had "rock stage presence." It was weak.

1. Vonzell - gutsy choice - great performance (with a few clinkers thrown in). Vonzell looks like a star. Very natural pleasing stage presence. 2. Bo - perfect song choice for him! Excellent!!! I'd rank him first but that shirt prohibits him from climbing higher than number 2. I just love how normal and down home Bo is. 3. Anthony - It pains me to put him this high. Great job - but honestly, it bugs me that a young guy would be itching to sing Celine Effing Dion. You shoudl be out getting laid and tattoed Anthony - not channeling Neil Diamond or Wayne Newton. 4. Carrie - well, she looked good. There are way better Martina songs. Bland and pretty and ultimately just not enough. 5. Constantine - a little too smug and a lot too poseur 6. Scott- pitchy. ordinary. forgettable.

Dreadful week. I didn't think it could get worse than last week, but it did! 1. Bo - I guess he gets this spot because everyone else was worse (not because he was particularly great). I mentioned in another thread that I wanted him to sing this song. I was disappointed after hearing it, though It was a very shaky performance vocally (he was all over the place) but he can get away with it with the kind of music he sings. But as usual, he performed very well and looked the part. 2. Anthony - The beginning was bad, but the end was pretty great. 3. Vonzell - some good parts here and there, but overall she was off-pitch. No more slow songs for you, Vonzell! She doesn't have the control (training) to sing slow songs (she needs a new voice teacher, methinks...she certainly has amazing pipes but isn't using them properly). 4. Scott - I enjoyed parts of it because he showed the control he has in his voice, but he was off-key (but who wasn't tonight?) a number of times and the first few high notes were pretty wretched. 5. Carrie - Ick. Yet another bad week for Carrie. She was way off pitch the ENTIRE song. Randy was exactly right in his analysis of her performance...never quite got up to the notes. 6. Constantine - O.M.G. When I heard the selection, I thought there was no way he could pull it off...Bo, yes. Constantine, no way in Hades. That was probably THE worst performance of the finals for me (even worse than last week's Carrie/Constantine disasters). These two in my bottom two again this week...too bad it'll never happen IRL Please let next week be something more enjoyable. I have been hoping for Motown week or big band week (those are always my favorite weeks) this season, but with this bunch, that would probably be a disaster. Got blog?

1. Constantine -- In spite of what the judges said, I thought he was great this week. I think this is exactly the kind of music he is comfortable with -- not too hard rock, not too pop. I thought he sounded great. I think the judges (especially Randy) are harder on him because of his good looks. They assume that's why he has so many fans... But I honestly think even without the good looks he is hands down the best singer and best performer in this competition, by far. I think he's already a star.2. Carrie -- Hated the song, but thought she sang it well 3. Vonzell -- ok 4. Bo -- I think Bo is one note. His voice sounds like an SNL rock star spoof voice to me. I think the judges are really pushing him, in spite of the fact that he has not been doing that great. I don't know why. He always sounds and looks exactly the same to me. If he wins this show, I don't think he'll be a big seller... 5. Anthony - dreadful, but not as bad as Scott 6. Scott -- this boy has got to go!!!

Well, yoiu might not think he is good looking but a lot of people in America think he is very good looing, including, and especially me. I said that because they comment every week on his looks in one way or another. This week Randy said, "I'm happy for you that you're a good looking guy, but this is a singing competition..." Those kinds of comments just enrage me. It is no more fair to other him for his good looks than it is to other Scott for his not so good looks... And besides, why do the judges have to keep saying that. People vote for Constantine because they like the full package... He is a great singer, he's exciting, he takes chances, he's cool, and fun, and he also happens to be good looking. Madonna is not the best singer in the world, but people have liked her and bought her music for decades. I don't get why Randy has to keep lecturing us on who to vote for... Why can't we just vote for who we like, regardless of what makes us like them?

1. Bo- I love Gavin DeGraw, I've been pimping his music since Feb '04 when I saw him open for BNL. See him live peeps, he's great live.2. Anthony- *doublelook* yep I typed Anthony, I thought he did well with that song. Even though I hate Celine. 3. Vonzel- Girl can sing. 4. Carrie- I like that song but she had no energy or personality in it as usual. Add in that she obviously was under the weather and she just wasn't that great. 5. Constantine- ummmmm ack! that was not good but.... 6. Scott- go home now please, that performance was horrid. Slow boring off key song. Painful. Save a horse, ride a cowboy. Sigpic by Syren.

1. Anthony--Left it all out on the stage. Parents crying was great for pulling in votes.2. Vonzell--Tough song, not quite right vocals at points. but she beats the others hands-down. 3. Carrie--Definitely not her best vocal, but I actually thought she had some energy for once. Like Nadia, her song choices may doom her. 4. Bo--It was okay for me. I still think he has lost momentum from earlier and can't quite find his groove. 5 and 6--Connie/Scott--Both were bad. Connie is a good performer, but his voice was awful, awful, awful! But, like Paula said, the notes don't really matter. And we always listen to Paula.
Scott plain sucked. Off-key, boring, same ole, same ole. Go home to Ohio and represent the "average" American there. A Nefarious Dice Creation

1. Bo - loved the performance, hated the shirt and shades2. Vonzell - Not really a baby V fan but thought she sounded good on a difficult song. 3. TIE - Anthony - Best he has sounded. I cringed when Ryan said he was taking on Celine but I was surprised when I actually liked it. Carrie - Looked gorgeous as always, sounded pretty good but not my favorite Martina song. She should have sang Wild Angels but not sure what year that came out. 5. Constantine - Poor song choice. I like Nickelback but that song doesn't showcase his vocals at all. Should have sang the Reason by Hoobastank. ( I know might not be on the list ) 6. Scott - Agree with Simon. Bottom 3 - Scott, Constantine, Anthony

1. Bo - and not just because he's hot. He did a great job on this and I love his look and he oozes sexuality and sensuality and OMG OMG OMG!! Okay, so it is just because he's hot. He showcased his girlfriend, though, but balanced this travesty nicely by admitted that he is a cat person. *swoon*2, 3, 4 - Anthony, Carrie, Vonzell - all pretty blah. 5. Constantine - he's second last only because I am sick of Scott, but I shall never forgive him for butchering this song, and if Chad Krueger were dead, he'd be spinning in his grave right now. Paws shaking traumatically, I had to struggle to put on my Nickelback CD to listen to this song the way it was meant to be sung. You? Are not rock. You're a pop idol. Deal with it. And stop looking at me like that. It makes me *shudder*.
6. Scott - Not only did he suck, but he's manipulative. I don't buy all the father crap. He's going for the sympathy vote every week and I, for one, am insulted. Even if it's all true, which I doubt if it is, it isn't relevant to what's going on here. Putting him through every week based on a sob-story is like giving the NYC fireman the million before the game is played out -- it's cheesy and shallow. Hey, Scott fans, If you want to vote for the downtrodden, do some useful and make out a cheque to your favourite charity. Let this dog lie. The world is my litterbox.

Editor’s Note 1: Now I know why I don’t listen to much contemporary popular music. Editor’s Note 2: Actually, I already knew. It mostly svcks. The only song I recognized was Carrie’s version of Martina. Tier 1 Bo: Great, great performance. Can’t say enough about it. Vonzell: She will be a big, big star. Anthony: Well done. I agree with what Simon said, though. Tier 2 Carrie: Nice, but off. Scott: Nice, but off. Constantine: WTF? Dude, even what little I know of current pop music is enough to know you should have done John Mayer or something similar.

My thoughts:1. Bo--very good but I keep saying that he looks ridiculous carrying that microphone stand around with him w/o a band in the background And the rest 2. Anthony-I have to put him here because he was better than the rest, but I agree with Simon, I hated it but the tweeners/teen girls will love it!! 3. Vonzell--eh, I don't like her but better than rest 4. Carrie--same as V 5. Constantine--Nickelback,um, no..John Mayer would have been excellent for him to do, Dweeze really should be these kids' coach 6. Scott--just off key the whole song, just awful NOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN TONITE: Bottom 3: Scott, Carrie and Vonzell (Constantine maybe, instead of Carrie, but I doubt it) Scott finally goes home (unless the old "sings last" rule goes into effect and he is saved again, if that happens then V goes)

27. "RE: Rankings Thread 04/26/05" |
LOL, Emy.Great minds think alike. Just slightly different reasoning. 1) Bo - no question, a slam dunk. This guy is the real deal. And I have to agree with Glowie, he's hot, hot, hot. In a way that Constantine can only dream about. And I have to laugh about the microphone stand thing. DBF keeps saying, "It must feel so weird for him to be singing with no band behind him. But he just goes for it anyway." HUGE LINE----------BECAUSE THE REST DON'T COME CLOSE
2) Anthony - can't believe I have him ranked high again. But he did the job with this song, even though I don't think I hate anything more than Celine Dion songs. ANOTHER HUGE LINE-------BECAUSE ALL THE REST SVCKED 3) Vonzell - she only gets this space because everyone else was even more horrible. Vonzell, honey, do you even know what a "key" is? 4) Carrie - now we get into the real svckage that was last night's show. I lied earlier when I said there was nothing I hated more than Celine Dion songs. I hate Carrie's singing in any genre worse than Celine. I thought she might do better in country (is there a worse genre in all of music than this one?) since it is her "thing," but I was wrong. Very, very wrong. 5) Constantine - OMG, that was bad. That was so bad, it made me feel bad for Nickelback. And since I think Nickelback should apologize to all of North America for being one of the most horrible bands to ever have a hit on American radio, that's saying quite a bit. Connie, honey, you are no rocker. No matter how much you want to be. Get over it. 6) Scott - I refuse to even discuss how bad this was. Scott, Carrie, and Vonzell. Scott gets the boot. But I actually would rather Carrie go. Or Vonzell. Oh, well, if any of these three go, I'd be happy.
I'm such a slut for the blues.

1. Bo. - Wow. Whoa. Perfect song choice, and he's still a studmuffin.2. Anthony - The high notes did it for me. Good performance, and I don't particularly care for him. 3. Vonzell - Ranked higher than Carrie due to risky song choice. She started out pretty shaky, but there were quite a few good notes mixed in. She needs a little more seasoning. Put her back in the oven a little bit, and she'll be fine. 4. Carrie - Easy song choice for her, did it a'ight. 5. Scott - Boring, but he has to be better than... 6. Constantine - NICKELBACK? You've got to be kidding me! Stop kicking the camerapeople and pick a song better for you. He was making me ill just watching his performance. Horrid.
I'm back to putting Constantine on the bottom of the heap, whew.

Being that all of these contestants have been performing in some kind of venues for at least a few years now, the theme for the night should have brought out the best performances of the season. They all could have chose a song they truly know, have been singing for at least a year, and really make an impression. Yet I was disappointed, only a couple actually came through and did just that. So on to my rankings. 1. BO!- Without a doubt the best of the night. He's probably done that song a few times before and knew he could make a good impression with it. And he did. 2. Anthony- Anthony loves Celine Dion songs (he is from Europe so I guess we can forgive him). I would guess this has been a song he has sung quite alot over the years and knew he could really pull it off. His voice right on the whole time with some really hard notes. He needed to have a good night and in my opinion he had his best yet. 3. Carrie- I think she tried to do as Bo with a song she really knew and thought would make a good impression. But for one thing she sounded sick and another the song was not a good choice. 4. Vonzell- Both girls were flat, but I think Vonzell a little more so is the only reason she is below Carrie. 5. Connie- Others have said it better than I. 6. Scott- I cringed at having to see his family. And I cringed during a couple notes of the song. Isn't this the same guy who got sympathy votes because his father supposedly was horrible, then he goes and sings an "I-love-Daddy" song? I don't get it.
