Pagal | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:39 am     Shall we try this again? Its “Disco Nights” and the evening will start off with Corey singing “We Are Family” as he’s being hauled off the stage in handcuffs. Ruben really rocked last week and I think he’s going to “Ring my Bell” again tonight. Ricky sings “Stayin’ Alive” and Trenyce sings “Bad Girls.” Josh gives us a rousing rendition of “In the Navy” and Carmen sings “Love to Love You Baby” sounding eerily like Olivia Newton-John.(heehee) Kim C. will do a so-so rendition of “Boogie Oogie Oogie” and Kim L. will leave us wanting more with “When Will I See You Again.” The night will end with Clay reminding us of “Oh What a Night!” Fade out with “Super Freak” Ryan leading the audience through “Y.M.C.A” while Simon appears to be suffering from “Night Fever” and Paula and Randy “Get Down on It.” |
Prisonerno6 | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:49 am     "...the evening will start off with Corey singing “We Are Family” ..." Don't think so. :-) |
Pagal | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:52 am     That reference to Corey was supposed to come across as sarcasm - guess I should have put it in italics! :0) |
Prisonerno6 | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 06:00 am     Hee-hee-hee! Got it. :-) |
Texannie | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 06:25 am     Pagal...HYSTERICAL!!!!!!!!! |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 06:28 am     Pagal, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if you got some of the song picks right. I am going to keep track just to see. I liked your post, funny stuff. |
Crazydog | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 12:44 pm     Are the Village People disco? I know they were from the 70s but just because they are 70s doesn't mean they are disco. I've never thought of "YMCA" or "In the Navy" as a disco song. Although I do agree that Joshua is likely to choose one of their songs because he knows he would be horrible at everything else. But I think he's going to sing "YMCA" because he knows it's a song that everyone knows and would be more crowd-pleasing. He's a grandstander and I just hope he looks ridiculous while trying to make the letters. Compared to last week I am looking forward to these songs. I think this will really be THE night for Kimberly Caldwell and Kimberly Locke. They will shine. Perhaps Corey's sister will show up to sing "you can Ring my Bellllllllllll ring my bell". Oops, looks like he already did. |
Pagal | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 01:00 pm     LOL Crazydog! I never thought of the Village People as disco but they were on the list I found of top disco hits so I'm guessing someone thought they were. I'm looking forward to tonight's show too - last week just did not do a thing for me. |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 01:22 pm     actually, about the only disco i liked was the village people! i loved the beegees pre-disco, didn't like donna summer, etc. the only reason i liked kc and the sunshine band was to see my straight-as-an-arrow, catholic-school-teaching wussy older sister trying to line dance after one wine cooler. |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 01:26 pm     i guess i was listening to 'santana', 'the eagles', 'creedence', and 'fleetwood mac'....disco just makes me cringe...so yep, i'll be watching! it can't be any worse than the real thing----- can it? |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 02:17 pm     I think I will stay on here and just read the posts about it. Much more entertaining than disco could ever be "ring my bell" ROTFLMAO |
Brenda1966 | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 02:53 pm     I tried to learn "Ring My Bell" in the piano way back when. I never practiced and was a horrible player so you can imagine how it sounded. I did learn to play "Send in the Clowns" pretty good. Village People is disco in my book. I'm looking forward to the show. I'll be so disappointed if someone doesn't do some BeeGees. |
Maris | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 02:55 pm     I am going to go out on a limb here and predict that Corey will be eliminated after he sings Evelyn Champagne King's "Shame" |
Clp | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 03:41 pm     Here is the track list for the CD of AI2 that is being released at the end of April. I highlighted the ones that could possibly Disco songs for tonight. 1. What the World Needs Now - group 2. Superstar - Ruben Studdard 3. On the Wings of Love - Clay Aiken 4. At Last - Julia DeMato 5. Three Times a Lady - Joshua Gracin 6. Let's Stay Together - Trenyce 7. Back at One - Rickey Smith 8. Killing Me Softly With His Song - Kimberly Caldwell 9. Open Arms - Corey Clark 10. How Do I Live - Carmen Rasmusen 11. Over the Rainbow - Kimberley Locke 12. Overjoyed - American Idol 10 Finalists Season 2 I know some of you might not consider these songs truly Disco, but seeing as how loose their interpretation of Country Rock was, I am betting they let them sing anything from the 70's. It has also been reported that they have scrapped the Burt Bacharach song for charity, and are instead sing "God Bless The USA". Probably, because Corey was on the recording! |
Demeter | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 03:58 pm     Clp, I don't think I would consider any of those songs you highlighted as disco. I guess they would really have to stretch to count them in... If they let them do anything in the 70's, why not just go for a 70's night. A lot of variety in the 70's. (Ok, I just want to hear Clay sing Greg Lake's "I talk to the wind"...my, oh my, that would be something. (Greg Lake of ELP and King Crimson) |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 04:13 pm     I would rather hear Kim L sing Killing Me Softly. She would be great on that song. Kim C is too dancy. |
Pagal | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 04:23 pm     I agree Car. She would screw up a perfectly good song. JMHO. :0) |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 04:25 pm     I agree Car, Kim L would do that song justice, I don't think Kim C. could handle it. |
Ladytex | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:02 pm     anyone else here? |
Demeter | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:03 pm     Me too, me too! I think Kim L can handle it just fine, Kim C would kill "me" with that song. |
Jenhavins | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:04 pm     I am here...Corey is telling his side...he says he didn't do what they said he did. he is sorry for taking the spot he did. He apologized. Jewell was in the audience. |
Kellsma | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:04 pm     Is Corey there live or on tape? |
Demeter | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:04 pm     I'm at work, but it looks like I have a cancellation so I might make it home in time to see some of the show after all. (not too worried, my son is taping it for me and I already harassed him to make sure he had everything in order). |
Ditzymommy | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:05 pm     Wow! A message from Corey, usually they just sweep it under the rug and the person is gone. I'm glad he apologized to the people that could have been there in his spot. |
