They...liked it?

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

Wasn't bad.

There have been worse acts tonight. Lol

 

[Delio]

That white boy should sing more though. They need some leaders in this giant group.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Lakoda Rayne was solid. Beautiful ladies with beautiful voices.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

That Austin kid in Intensity should sing more. He did at judges house and he was amazing. He has the best voice in that group.

 

[qcf x2]

They...liked it?

I mean, it was better than Stereo Hoggz :-\

I'm not sure I understand why the judges aren't giving criticisms on this show. The feedback is entirely: "You were amazing."

 

[OmniGamer]

They're like a muilt-ethnic adopted kids version of the Duggar family

 

[Koodo]

They've liked everything tonight. Judges have been flopping harder than the contestants.

Praying that Drew saves the night.

 

[MIMIC]

They're not kids....but the kids of AMERICA!

 

[Koodo]

Wait a second, final performance of the night.


I don't remember Stacy performing... did she get kicked out after all that exposé on her past? :lol


Edit: oh, the final performance of Simon's team.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Final act in the girls group. Night's going by fast.

Drew looking like a lost little puppy. But she sounds good as usual.

 

[LightofRohan]

Really an X factor thread, but not an AGT thread? I don't get it.

 

[KibblesBits]

This song is exposing her weak points.

 

[MIMIC]

I liked that.

But the clothes? WTF

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Josh meh. Terrible song choice. LOL at Nicole crying.

Melanie should win this, but even if she doesn't she'll be top 4 and will get a deal.

 

[Koodo]

Really an X factor thread, but not an AGT thread? I don't get it.

America's Got Talent? lmao, no.

This song is exposing her weak points.

Yeah, it was definitely her weakest performance. Her voice didn't sound as magical as it usually does.

Paula's commentary was hilarr.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

That was pretty good and unique.

 

[Delio]

That Austin kid in Intensity should sing more. He did at judges house and he was amazing. He has the best voice in that group.

I agree fully. He's the real hidden voice there and they seem to be pushing him back. Honestly I think they should figure out who's the strongest singer of the group and push them forward. I guess the personalities are just clashing to much for them to really come together.

 

[qcf x2]

This song is exposing her weak points.

Yeah. This was my fear with her, that she's gotten by on that one vocal trick. She did a good job all things considering, but hearing her actually sing proved she's probably got as much work to do as Rachel when it comes to singing with range.

Melanie is obviously light years ahead of them (and everyone else).

 

[MIMIC]

Simon: Why do we need another Bobby Brown? Isn't one enough?

lol

 

[Discotheque]

Drew and Rachel are set. They can and will lose but they'll still be signed by Ellen Degeneres anyways.

 

[Delio]

Kinda forgot this guy was still around.

 

[KibblesBits]

MMMmm, dat 90s R&B.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

This is terrible. Too many lyrics. He can't keep up while singing.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Marcus doesn't strike me as a solo act. He needs to be in a group.

That was a bit too much, and his vocals took a hit when he started to dance. But mostly it was just too much, he looked out of place surrounded by all those dancers. He still doesn't command a stage with enough presence, sometimes he kinda just blended in with the dancers even though he was wearing a bright red jacket.

GURL it's like the Twilight Zone with the judges tonight.

Steve Jones keeps using "clean sweep"

I think that's my problem with him.

 

[kirblar]

Agreed. A lot of people are getting exposed tonight- last week a lot of the acts had backing tracks. This week, the training wheels are gone, since the public's voting.

 

[Koodo]

Gerl, we need Mariah in there cracking that diva whip on the other judges and contestants.



IT'S TIME FOR FRAUDACY!

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Intensity - fun,but more like a Disney group than a real one.

Drew - meh tonight. Tough to hear her at the beginning. Can't dance. Very weak stage presence.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Kelly Clarkson already devastated the hell out of this song.

 

[MIMIC]

Steve Jones keeps using "clean sweep"

Well that's because he's a suck ass host

 

[Koodo]

loling at her last wail extending beyond the end of the performance.

It was OK. I like how she's the one bringing in most of the drams though, so I hope she stays.

 

[Delio]

Um did anyone catch the smoke rising from behind Nicole?

 

[Leona Lewis]

Um did anyone catch the smoke rising from behind Nicole?

It takes a lot of energy for her to compose a coherent thought.

Everyone sounded terrible on the replays except for Melanie.

 

[Koodo]

Best/Tolerable:

Lakoda Rayne, Josh, Melanie, Stacy, Stereo Hogzz.


Flop:

Everyone else.


I give this night a C+

 

[MIMIC]

My favs (tonight):

1. Melanie
2. Astro
3. Leroy
4. Marcus
5. Drew

Throw Josh in there and I didn't care for anyone else. I wouldn't have cared for Leroy hadn't he been given a song that I thought really suited him.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

I'll be voting for Melanie and Lakoda Rayne.

And maybe a vote for Leroy Bell. And one for Stacy Francis, because she can sing lights out.

 

[krypt0nian]

Melanie, Drew & Lakoda Rayne


All else go home. Please euthanize Astro.

 

[MIMIC]

lol

Am I the only one here that likes the little guy? =p

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Anyone else getting invalid error code when trying to vote?

And WTF only 1 is going home? This show will be on forever. Send home 4 you dingleberries.

 

[Koodo]

And WTF only 1 is going home? This show will be on forever. Send home 4 you dingleberries.

So when is this show supposed to end anyway?

 

[OmniGamer]

Just on a guess I'd say it'll lead up to the premier of the next season of American Idol

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

So when is this show supposed to end anyway?

End of December.

WE GOTS A LONG WAYS TO GO

 

[VPhys]

Why don't they let Chris Rene do his own songs if that's what he's best at.

 

[Gary Whitta]

What the fuck is going on on this show? Many of these acts have real talent but the judges/mentors have them singing total garbage!

 

[offtopic]

Only had a chance to listen to a few but the sound mixing seemed way off. Voices were very suppressed and backings were too loud.

 

[Red_Man]

Melanie, Drew & Lakoda Rayne


All else go home. Please euthanize Astro.

LOL me and my roommates were saying this all night, what a smug little piece of shit, throw in nicole and the shitty host too will you're at it, both are completely useless and ruining the show. "You are the sunshine of america!" Really Nicole? Go take that hyperbole and fuck off please. I feel bad for Josh, dude is getting held back because of her.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

Agreed.

Which makes me like American Idol more..

The backings in X Factor are way too loud. The UK Version has suppressed backings compared to the US version. So far the US version has been total ass in this department. You can't hear fucking shit. Rachel suffered the worse from this tonight followed by Marcus Canty or whatever his name is.
