Just watched my tape of last night, and I think Mig and Jordis were the best. I thought Dave and the guys were distracted by Deanne's running through the audience at them. She might have looked hot, but her singing was terrible!

Am I the only one who thinks JD looks like he's having a seizure? Maybe I shouldn't look at him when he's singing, cause he really turns me off. I was shocked that Dave N. said he could watch him for two hours. I had trouble with two minutes! (Texannie, I'm with you: Ick, ick, ick!!!)

Just can't help but share that I saw Queen in person in 1977 (yes, I'm that old!). I think Mig did Freddy Mercury proud, may he RIP.

With JD it is a weird hand thing he does that looks spastic. The whole body jerk seems to have subsided.

I think Jordis is the first performer to outdo herself in the encore. Amazing considering that Dave said her original was one of the best vocal performances he's ever heard. She should have looked a little more humble when he said this btw, IMO

I would definitely buy that track. And a whole CD from her if it were equally good.

i had to laugh when they said "you aren't right for our rock band, INXS." it just sounds really weird when he says that! not shocked about tara. i couldn't understand her when she sang, even the police song, i know that song, and didn't understand it when she sang it. cannot wait for jordas to release her own album, i would buy that :-).

What a relief that Tara is gone. Her lounge-singer-like aside of, "I love this song" seemed like a lame attempt to disprove Garry's notion that she didn't like singing other people's songs! Almost everytime she sang, I felt like she wasn't into it or I could barely hear her. I wonder how things would have been different if she had never done "Take It Easy"! Oh well, I'm sure she's happier away from the weekly rejection. :-)

Here's what I want to know:

When Tara was eliminated, she said something about her "ticker" not being able to take much more. (To which Tim said, "We figured that.")

And in her goodbye ramble, she mentioned learning about her heart.

Unless I am way off base, I got the impression Tara has some sort of heart condition and the stress of the show was showing her what her physical limitations are.

And while I don't fault the girl for having some sort of ailment, I thought it was kind of a lame cop-out for her to have the "Oh well, I couldn't handle this anyway so c’est la vie" attitude.

We don't have VH1 in Canada. I'm pissed. I am going to miss the Monday shows. They added an extra element to the Tuesday performances. I appreciated that.

I don't think she was referring to an actual physical condition at all. I am pretty certain she was referring to her emotions and the stress of repeatedly having to save herself from elimination. They mercy killed her as the public was going to continually put her in the bottom three.

Scorpio, I've still got last night's show on my DVR. Just watched Tara again. I get the impression that she was NOT referring to a heart condition.

After the exchange between her about her "ticker" and Tim, she then said, "I've learned so much about myself, my heart, and my mind, and music, and the beauty of people . . . ." I doubt she was speaking of a physical heart condition.

I'm in the U.S., but I don't have cable or satellite. Networks would prefer we don't, but then they take away the program and put it on cable. I complained to CBS.

Ty ROCKED "Kick" last night. And I really liked his go-for-broke attitude.

--------
Jordis has me looking for the David Bowie orignal version! I really liked her performance and I've been singing it for the past two days!

I would buy anything she sings on -- INXS or not!

-------
I *love* the Monday eppys! Not just to see the interaction among the group (and learn how smarmy JD can be!) but its fun to see the rehearsals.

Too bad they are moving to VH1, but can you say marathon? woo hoo!!!

The thing I love about the Monday shows is seeing their reactions coming back from the eliminations and all that goes into choosing the songs for the next performance, including the rehearsals with the band. I really think it adds to the enjoyment of the Tuesday competition when you see what they had to go through to prepare for the performance.

Some of these contestants -- Jordis, Ty, Marty, are too good for INXS and could make it on their own after this exposure. INXS was good in it's day but what have they done lately but this show?

That's why they need a new lead singer, Hummingbird!

Oh, no-- Don't say the singers are too good for INXS! Sure, they haven't done anything in the past 8 years because of Michael's death....I doubt if they could come back, too. I can see Brandon or Jessica fronting the band. I really wonder what their new album will be like! When I see the elimination episodes I'm struck by the variety of the music INXS did, I can't believe they don't have it in them to make a comeback. We'll see!

I'd love to see MiG win this...he has what it takes. And he seems to have the same "tone" that would fit with an 80's band for a comeback.

INXS has a Thanksgiving deadline for release of their new album. I'd love to hear MiG on it!

I agree. Mig is my favorite, too. I love Jordis, but think she could and should stand on her own. She doesn't really need INXS.

I like Mig, but I think INXS finds him too stiff. I'm not sure he's completely catching on, or has it in him to loosen up the way they would like.

INXS seems to really be digging JD and Marty's energy and vocals now. I think JD is the one they want.

In the interview I gave a link to above. Tim Farriss said they weren't just looking for a singer. These people were also chosen because of their songwriting ability as well. In the upcoming weeks, the "rockers" will get to perform their own songs.

That's when it will get interesting. JD might be an interesting character, but can he contribute more than that to the band?

7 August 2005

Rock Star Mansion jam
Remaining singers JD, Jordis, Ty, Marty, Brandon, Deanna, Jessica, MiG and Suzie will perform an intimiate acoustic jam session at the Rock Star Mansion tonight, Sunday 7 August.
Also in attendance will be INXS, Dave Navarro, Brooke Burke and Mark Burnett. It remains to be seen whether INXS band members or Dave Navarro will also participate in the jam.
