I cant believe that Clay choked like that. Although I thought he sounded pretty darn good. Remember early on in the tryouts the judges all said the worst thing for them is if a singer forgets the words because it means they didnt prepare enough.

I think Clay sounded good but forgetting the words is what really did him in. I also didnt think Ruben sounded all that either.

Why havent they EVER let Kim go last?????
It pisses me off..
but at least they showed her signs, and Ryan said its NOT a popularity contest..

Kim wasnt her greatest voice, but she was great, and the judges loved her, said she was brilliant, superb and the most improved in any competition ever.

They liked Ruben a lot. I thought his personality and presence was superb, by far the best for him ever, he grooved and stayed awake, but his voice has never been so off. didnt sound like him hardly

Clay kept his eyes real wide, i think he tried really hard not to blink. Hubby says its impossible..that it seems that one eye has to widen in order for his vocal chords to work...
The judges were all really hard on him. He has a wonderful voice, but it was kinda a wierd rendition. apparently he forgot the words too..

I thought Kim and Ruben did a great job and I'm not a huge Ruben fan. I thought Clay did a good job considering he forgot the words.

Oh, I love this Dionne Warwick/Burt Bacharach song! Anyone Who Had a Heart

Kim sounds kinda mediocre to me on this song.

Round 2

* PLUG * Extra show on Monday night - all you could ever need to know about the final 2

Judges Choice
Kimberley - Anyone who had a heart, recorded by Mariah Carey

Grey pants, Striped pink & white dress shirt

Struggling in the lower register, not the best I've heard from her...

(Oh my goodness, Quentin Tarantino is in the audience)
Randy: Sounded great on you
Paula: Great job
Simon: It was good, not blown away, safe, good"ish"

It just wasn't a really exciting song, very repetitive musically...

There realy isn't any way to blow someone away with that song, but Kim did about as good a job as she could.

Ruben's pick by Simon. He chose "Smile". Once again, not a great song for anyone to "blow away" a performance with. Ruben definitely having hoarseness problems, but covered it up relatively well.
