Thanks Jan

jan, that is a good theory about the bottom 4 being the first four to perform and perhaps not heard because of the timing of the show. that makes a lot of sense. i didn't realize it matched up like that. wow. if that's true, it's even more disappointing!

i can't wait for tomorrow's show!

Billy was the first to perform followed by Toya and Ritchie, I think Karen Lee was 5th and Candida later 7th or 8th.

So what did you guys think?

I missed the first couple of performances. How did Jenny do?

Audrey tanked. I don't mind. I want her out so Ryan can win. Ryan was great tonight. I'm voting for Ryan.

But Toya really did profoundly well tonight. Good for her.

Gary and Tyler were really dull.

Mikey and Billy have got to go.

I'm getting sick of Sass Jordan and her constant passive comments that add nothing to the show. So many of her compliments are empty and pointless.

I missed most of it, darn phone. The only ones I saw were Mikey and Jenny. Didn't care for either of them.

I think they all didn't do well tonight except for Toya. I want Mikey and Jenny gone.

The entire show was a disappointment. Toya was alright until she did the Mariah Carey high-pitch squeal thing.

IMO Sass Jordan = Paula Abdul

I'm voting Toya all the way but I thought Ryan also did well..the rest, not so good IMHO which is usually wrong!

It was an okay show, I really liked Ryan and I liked Jenny, though it really wasn't her type of song. I thought Tyler was the worse, I don't know what he was thinking. I don't know which two will be gone.

Is what we saw tonight all we have left? Or are there others?

i thought ryan and toya did really well (although i could have done without the squeak myself) and the rest of them weren't that good. i was really disappointed with tyler. he tried to growl and grunt his way through a peppy little song and it Just Didn't Work. i did through a couple of votes his way though, because i want him to be in it next week. i voted my redial button off for the other two.

say, does anyone else think they used the term 'motown' kinda loosely? when i hear that term, i think the motown sound of the sixties--you know, not just a record label and a place, but a time. if i'm not mistaken stevie wonder's 'sir duke' was mid/late 70's and 'i just called to say i love you' was 80's. the latter in particular just isn't a motown song to me. what do you think?

mikey has to go. (maybe if i say it often enough, he will go.)

Snee

you mean of competitors, cross? if so, then yes. that's the group. i wish they hadn't cut the group down so fast.

mikey has to go.

Snee: Now that you mention it, I agree. You're right in that the phrase "Motown" and "Motown sound" encompasses more of a time in musical history than it does to simply define the musicians signed to the label.

Winnipeg musician Remy Shand is signed to the Motown label. You don't hear anyone describing his music as "Motown".

Check out this scathing (but very accurate) review of last night's show:

The review.

Last night certainly didn't compare to other performances that they had done.

I'm with Snee, Mikey has got to go. And both Toya and Ryan were good.

Tyler I would like to stay but he was awful last night, so was Gary, uh actually they all were except Toya and Ryan. The song choices just did nothing for them.

I love Mikey. And I love Snee too ... but I love my Mikey. perhaps if i counter Snee's messages, he'll stay ...

Audrey and Gary have to go.

I'm wondering why they picked so much Stevie Wonder music? (I don't even really think of Stevie Wonder as Motown, at least not anything he's done as an adult). They must be having a hard time getting permission to use material, or they really don't have much imagination...

I'd say it's time for Mikey and Gary to hit the dusty trail. For the first time though, I'm a little concerned for the fate of Tyler...

I'm also wondering, and I love Jenny, you know I do, but what exactly is her type of music? Is she going bring down da house on Gregorian Chant theme night?

" Is she going bring down da house on Gregorian Chant theme night? "


ROFLMAO, Kelli, that is the best

Snee: your chanting worked, Mikey is gone!

wow tyler is gone also. That is a surprise. I didn't personally like him but lots of people did

Arrgh, what is wrong with people! Jenny got more votes than Tyler & Billy? I don't get it.

Tatyana

Tuesday, August 12, 2003 - 05:45 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Liz, a lot of people like Jenny's voice and type of singing, though last night wasn't her finest. I'm very happy she's still here. :)

I feel kind of bad for Mikey and Tyler. I get the feeling both were hoping this show would take them away from their life struggles.

I get the feeling the others will be ok when they are eliminated. But these two? It must suck to go from being a "nobody" to being treated like a star to going back to being a "nobody".

Scorpiomoon

The one thing I'll say about Jenny is: you just never know what is going to come out of her mouth. It keeps things interesting.
