PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Safety Dance" |
LAST EDITED ON 05-25-05 AT 08:21 AM (EST)S-s-s-s A-a-a-a F-f-f-f E-e-e-e T-t-t-t Y-y-y-y Safe-safe-safe-safe-ty Dance-dance-dance-dance...Was it just me or did anybody else feel both contestants made really safe song choices last night? I don't think either performer pushed the boundaries of their voices. It seemed to me we saw just what we would expect from Bo and Carrie. Don't get me wrong, they were both good. But I saw last night as an opportunity for either to just blow everybody away with something done great, but totally unexpected. Fantasia's song where she sat on the floor the whole time comes to mind.* Something like this could really separate yourself from your competition. But both wanted to stick with "their" style. Perhaps I'm wrong. This close to the title, perhaps it's best to stick with what you know and you're known for. But I see it as an opportunity wasted and felt that even though the performances were good, as a show it was just aw'right for me, dawg. KnowwhatI'msayin'?

* I can't remember what the song was or even what round that was in, but I do remember it to be a defining moment for her. It was when most finally said, "Yup, she's the next Americon Idol."

I think both did really well on their "favorite" songs, but the other two "original songs", which I think are ones that the winner will record or something, were dreadful. Especially for Bo, who's style doesn't fit those songs.

Bo sang them just fine. It's just the songs I didn't like, and I don't think they fit him. He CAN sing anything, but some things work better than others.

I dunno...I really liked Vehicle, though my personal favorite of Bo's was Whipping Post. That was before Final 12 though, right? Maybe they had to do a Final 12 song. I agree wholeheartedly with Simon that Carrie picked the wrong song. She got some criticism for song choice the first time she sang Independence Day, why do it again? Plus, if you're not a country fan, that song is pretty forgettable -- she should have done something that would hook a broader audience. And I do think they both tried to have their big moments last week (Bo's hit, Carrie's missed). Maybe they thought with 2 original songs to learn this week they'd better stick a little closer to the comfort zone with their own choice.
