when you trust your television, what you get is what you got.

this entry is not about heath ledger. (altho, still. sadface.)


random: did anyone notice that in the first girl's audition (tatiana?), simon a) told her "i don't think you're as good as you think you are" and b) said "OB-noxious" after she walked out. does that remind anyone of anything?

heh.

fwiw, i liked her. her voice was nice and i thought she was kind of hot.

the single dad seemed nice, sweet story, but i thought he was boring. :/

aussie guy was hot but i thought he was way way way OTT on the otis song. the stuff on his myspace seems ok.

i was prepared to hate david the 16-year-old, because he's already been getting pimped, but he was so goofy and adorable that i couldn't. i had the paula reaction and totally wanted to squish him. i know he won star search a couple of years ago and i imagine he'll do well on idol as well.

i really want to like carly, since i know she's another one who'll be pimped (i remember them pimping her before S5 started) and i always like anyone irish, but i pretty much hated her singing and i'm still recovering from the suck of her music video from when she was on geffen. on the plus side, her husband is lovely, even tho i hate facial tats.

i've been looking at the rumored top 50 list a little bit and so far i'm interested in josiah leming 'cause he seems like a fun hot mess piano spaz and he sang "grace kelly" in hollywood, and michael sanfilippo 'cause he's pretty in a weird, angular way and his band sounds like something i would listen to on purpose.

mostly? i miss blake.

EDIT: speaking of mr. bshorty, when he said in this interview that if he could've sung any U2 song on idol, he would've wanted to do "sunday bloody sunday," i totally flailed. i guess "imagine" was the closest he managed to get. ♥

as i've been watching idol so far this season, i always find myself wondering why i just don't care as much anymore. now i know it's because there will be zero blake this season :(

simon a) told her "i don't think you're as good as you think you are" and b) said "OB-noxious"

I totally squealed at that! I was like, hmm, I've heard THAT before!

I agree about David Archuleta, but his voice worries me. He sounded like he was straining when he was simpling talking.

Have you seen this video of him at age 12 singing "And I'm Telling You" to Kelly Clarkson and the other S1 Idols? He was AMAZING back then. Kelly LOVED him! It's unfortunate the vocal paralysis happened and affected his voice. :( Hopefully he can pull through and do well because he is adorable and talented.

I'm on the same page with you I believe.

yes. i yelled. clio and i were just talking about this. (i liked her, too.)

aussie guy is a) hot b) reminded me a bit of, yes, heath ledger. so that was odd. he sang OTT but i think he's good. the irish girl, though, way way WAY OTT. when they oversing that much, i plug my ears.

if he could've sung any U2 song on idol, he would've wanted to do "sunday bloody sunday,"
just when i think i cannot love him more, you hit me with this. oh, blake. apart from anything else the fact that he sometimes seems to have led a parallel 80s life somehow is killing me.

I would have love to hear Blake bust out some U2. I think he could have done really well with it... At least we got a little U2 taste with With or Without You during the AI tour...

I REMEMBERED BLAKE'S AUDITION!

boo. i miss him already. i wonder if this season will be as good as last one, even though pretty much everyone said last season was the worst one x_x

(specially with the top 24 rumors i've been reading, that my favorite is not there. damn it.)
