Peepinagain | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 09:59 am     When they announced Clay was singing an original it led me to believe he wrote it. Does anyone know if he did? None of Ruben's songs were original, they've all been recorded before. |
Crazydog | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 10:06 am     I think "original song" just means that it was originally written for Clay and for the show. Not sure if Clay wrote it. I doubt it. I think they would have emphasized it more ("singing a song he wrote himself..."). Who would write such a song for themselves anyway? It was basically saying something like "I'm the champion, this is my night". Didn't know that "Flying Without Wings" was not original. It was definitely the least known, though, and will be his single. |
Sadiesmom | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 11:09 am     DUH, I have no idea, it looked like is was outside from the shots earlier in the day and the only amphitheater I have been to was outside. It was just a comment, not meaning anything special, just that it must have been warm with so many short sleeve shirts. |
Skypilot | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 11:10 am     I think the problem with last night's show was that ALL of the songs were BORING. There wasn't one song that had any OOMPH. They were pretty songs, mind you, but I kept thinking about how much I miss Trenyce singing "Proud Mary" and doing a bit of the Tina Turner moves. Basically, what I'm saying is that the songs were devoid of fun and so was the show. Rueben and Clay both sounded good although I thought Clay sounded better but for the love of God when they announced that Clay, for the final performance of the contest, was going to sing "Bridge Over Troubled Water" all I could do was let out a big groan. WHO is choosing the songs this season? |
Crazydog | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 11:28 am     I agree Skypilot, the songs were just boring. I think Trenyce had the best stage presence this year and she really seemed to have fun. Kim's "Band of Gold" is a fun song as well. These songs were really boring, stand at the microphone type songs. What a letdown for a final performance show. They were setting us up for a big brassy knockdown battle at the end, like two titans coming together at last with sleeves rolled up and swords in hand, and when it finally came, all we got were two guys lacklustery playing with plastic spoons. |

Tatyana | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 12:13 pm     Snnnnneeeeee you know just what to do to make us all feel better. |
Kellsma | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 01:07 pm     The Universal Amphitheater is definetly indoors. I have been to a concert there. It was very hot here yesterday. At the time they were performing, even though it was indoors, it was still in the mid-high 80's and that was at 5:00. |
Bastable | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 01:10 pm     Yeah, it wasn't the Kamikaze Karaoke I was hoping it would be. |
Snee | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 01:34 pm     hehe, i'm glad you liked that tatyana...but i meant to post it in the 'goodbye' thread! *self forehead slap* |
Realfan | Wednesday, May 21, 2003 - 03:09 pm     I got in a single call for Clay. I tried for 20 minutes before one got through, then kept trying for another 40. Only the one. I hope it helps him win. |
