Sadiesmom | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:05 pm     oh yeah. Had to mention the Marines. Sqeeze the no talent buttons |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:05 pm     I give him a pass on the attitude. Some people were pretty huffy weeks and weeks ago on their first less than positive reviews. He has taken a lot, he is probably not in the best of moods, and should be ready to go. |
Gracieo | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:05 pm     I'm not sure that was an attitude, Lady--I think that's the countenance of a dead man walking. |
Sadiesmom | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:06 pm     Trenyce is the only one I can get through to |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:06 pm     My votes earlier were for tonight only. |
Spygirl | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:06 pm     I think Josh could have been much worse considering the criticism he has had to endure on national television week after week from Simon. The strain is wearing. I do not vote on tonight's performance only, MGA, but it weighs heavily. |
Mygetaway | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:07 pm     Thanks guys.. just wondering. I can't wait to see this tonight. |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:08 pm     I already said I didn't like his attitude, haven't for a while. I guess his attitude is why Simon pointed out Clay's ability to take critism as an adult. |
Maris | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:08 pm     Well if he cant take the criticism he should go. What Simon says is probably nowhere near as bad as he would hear from industry execs. I think Simon was totally on the mark tonight on all performances. I also think Neil Sedaka did a pretty good job and so far is my favorite guest judge (who'd a thought) |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:09 pm     Is this the week that Tamyra left? I wonder if Josh will be saved? |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:12 pm     I think Josh has come to the end of the line. I can't see him getting by this week. I think he is better than he is being given credit for here, these just aren't his songs, and this is probably not the show for him. |
Sadiesmom | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:15 pm     I disagree. First, Josh did not have to put up with much criticism until just a few weeks ago. Kim put up with much more as did Trenyce. Also I do believe I heard echo on the first Josh song and now I am wondering how much they alter singers voices on this show! What if no one really sounds good off mike? |
Maris | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:15 pm     I agree, Josh would do well to go and try out for the Grand Old Opry (I am not saying this as a joke). I think he has great potential as a country western singer but that is all he is capable of. He isnt a pop singer. Neil Sedaka is right, he needs to loosen up and relax. He isnt VH1 or MTV material. |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:20 pm     OK, I think that about wraps up tonight, pretty good show, see y'all tomorrow. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:23 pm     IMO................Clay really rocked despite his "fan" thread. I like him. |
Maris | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:25 pm     Not a Clay fan but I agree tonight he was the best overall. |
Walker | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:25 pm     boy did josh have a sour face tonight but i don't blame him because simon is so very BRUTALLY honest and i really don't think he has to be so harsh all the time. |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:27 pm     (OK, I'm not gone yet) Interesting, Clay is usually my second to top pick, tonight just did nothing for me. I thought the ladies really brought it tonight. I think I am too sensitive to the songs picked. If I don't like a certain song, I find it hard to be moved by the performer. (Now, I am maybe sneaking out) |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:29 pm     Oh no you do not! Spill. |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:31 pm     I think all the judges were much harder on Carmen and she a 17 year old girl took it with much more class than Josh. |
Crazydog | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:31 pm     I don't think Simon was harsh to Joshua at all. He simply told him that he is out of his league and that he is not as good as the others. Joshua knows it as well. Simon said something similar last year to (I forget his name - the pudgy Latino-looking boy - he was one of the J's. AJ DJ RJ EJ?). He said "boy band yes, American Idol no". Then he consistently told him he was out of his league. |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:32 pm     Interesting that they did 60's stuff tonight as just a couple of days ago, I spent some time *cough* acquiring about 160 doo wop tunes from the 50's and 60's. That made a bunch of tonights music fresh in my mind. Neat. |
Maris | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:32 pm     I would rather have Simons lay it out there honesty than what they get from Paula and Randy. What does "you were pitchy" mean and Paula with her "you were you". How is that supposed to help the performers? Simon told Clay he took criticism like a grown up and I agree. Simon can be rough but to me the only good judges tonight were Simon and Neil Sedaka. Sedaka was kinder than Simon but pretty much said the same thing. |
Crossfire | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:34 pm     I've got no problem with Simon's delivery, or people reacting. I agree in that I want to hear real honest opinions over the fluff stuff. |
Llkoolaid | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:34 pm     I agree Maris, with your whole post. |
