Letters to the Idols: Disco Week

Disco week? :gaah:

Dear Lil Rounds: (“I’m Every Woman” by Chaka Khan) I didn’t like that at all. I thought it was blah and bland and…not good. Just slightly better than average karaoke, and you’re already topping my list of who I want to see go home.

Mr S says: 5.5

Dear Kris Allen: (“She Works Hard for the Money” by Donna Summer) Ooooh…intriguing. Interesting arrangement, and I’m pretty sure I like it. A little odd, but in a good way.

Mr S says: 7.5

Dear Danny Gokey: (“September” by Earth, Wind & Fire) I don’t know why, but I thought it was cheesy. Maybe because you did it disco style and disco is so not my thing. (I don’t think. ABBA’s not considered disco, are they?) You’re a little hammy for me.

Mr S says: 7.5

(Random question from him I can’t answer: Who’s the long-haired blonde guy with the blonde chick they keep showing in the audience?)

Dear Allison Iraheta (“Hot Stuff” by Donna Summer) I thought you couldn’t decide whether you were doing it rock or doing disco, and it was a hot mess. I don’t think it’s time for you to go home, but I didn’t love it.

Mr S says: 7

Dear Adam Lambert: (“If I Can’t Have You” from the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack) After last week’s performance I asked Mr S if he thought you could do a ballad. Apparently you can. And, ohmigod, can you. Wicked, dude!

Mr S says: 9.5

Dear Matt Giraud: (“Staying Alive” by) I’m a little biased by the fact you shouldn’t be up there to begin with, but dude, that sucked. You’ve got a wicked sexy bar repetoire, but since you burned through that you’ve been mediocre. Sorry. I think you’re sexy, but you’re not at the same level as some of the others.

Mr S says: 7

Dear Anoop Desai : (“Dim All the Lights” by Donna Summer) Gah! The only version I know is Laura Branigan’s and sorry, but candle, you no holds it. As to what Randy just said, yes, you can sing. Unfortunately, you can’t perform.

Mr S says: 5

My favorite of the night: Adam
Mr S’s favorite of the night: Adam

Two I think should go home: Matt and Anoop
Two Mr S thinks should go home: Lil and Matt

    HI Shannon,

    I have to agree with your summary. I really Love Adam and Danny.

    And the blond man and the lady, that was Vince Neil of Motley crue and his wife.

    Seriously? Wow, does he look different! That’s cool. I’ll have to tell the husband when he gets home.

    I think the two unfortunate ones should stay and lets send the rest home. The chick with the unfortunate hair and the dude with the unfortunate make up.
    :wink:
