AI Top 4 and Results
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame week comes and goes, and Jason is off the show.
David C. – Hungry Like the Wolf and Teenage Wasteland.
David A. – Love Me Tender and Stand By Me
Jason – I Shot the Sherrif and Mr. Tambourine Man.
Syesha – Proud Mary and A Change is Gonna Come.
Is it just me, or are these not all really STRANGE song choices?? Would any one of them on it’s own have popped somebody into the aforementioned hall of fame? There was really nothing new here, performance-wise, by each of the top four. We have come to expect what they each deliver.
Jason’s send off was also expected and he seemed relieved to be done dreaming this particular big dream. Having ’shot the tambourine man’ would have been a hard act to follow. I hope he gets a recording contract, chalks up the experience and continues to get better and better.
I don’t know what Syesha has to do to oust one of the Davids. Her work is certainly cut out for her next week. David Cook does not need the American Idol crown to further his career. David A. does need it, and that’s why I think he’ll be the one to get it in the end. Two more weeks to go. Not the top three I would have personally chosen, but a nice group just the same.
About
(Umbrella - by Existrance/deviant art)
This is where I come to talk to myself by dredging up an old photograph or a memory and beating it to death with my keyboard. One day all this blather will be treasured by my progeny. Deluded as that notion might be, it’s what keeps me here. Just to clarify things a little, no part of my past or present life was ever spent actually living on a sidewalk. Life in the fast lane would have been a big fat lie; life on a skinny railing high above the railroad tracks with an umbrella at dawn – damn. Didn’t think of that one fast enough. But it’s sometimes how life feels. Precariously tense, but insanely fun.
