Seacrest opens the show by pimping the new set.\u00a0 Enough already… but I do agree… Simon needs to button the shirt…\u00a0 Ick! Seacrest reminds us that even though the look is new, the act is not…\u00a0 The time has come to begin the much hyped Beatles night.\u00a0 Will it hurt my status as a music lover if I say that I just don’t understand the hype around the Beatles.\u00a0 I mean…\u00a0 granted they were way before my time, and I do like some of their stuff…\u00a0 But I really don’t get the hype that they are the “greatest of all time”.\u00a0\u00a0 Whateva…\u00a0 Time to get started.. finally.<\/p>\n
Syesha Mercado<\/strong>: \u00a0 “Gonna get you into my Life”\u00a0 Sounded good to me.\u00a0 but honestly, I tuned out.\u00a0 Randy says she used the Earth, Wind, and Fire arrangement.\u00a0 Paula is all sunshines and kittens…\u00a0 She’s stuttering already… this may be a fun night.\u00a0 Simon loved her.<\/p>\n Chikezie:<\/strong> “She’s a woman”\u00a0 He’s got awesome energy, and it sounded fun.\u00a0 Randy loved it.\u00a0 Paula is stumbling around and referencing “O Brother Were Art Thou?”.\u00a0 Simon loved it… but then said he looked completely drunk halfway thorugh, but compliments his stage presence.\u00a0 Seacrest urges Chikezie to “work it, man!!”\u00a0 Dude.\u00a0 Ezie…\u00a0 Beware, Seacrest is tellin’ you to work it…\u00a0 I’d watch my backside if I were you.<\/p>\n Ramiele Malubay:<\/strong> “In my Life” She can sing.\u00a0 I don’t like slow songs…\u00a0 esp after\u00a0 ‘ezie’s high energy performance, this just seemed to drag the crowd way down.\u00a0 Randy said it just laid there, and Paula is complimenting her looks which means Paula thinks she needed to do something else.\u00a0 Simon is going to cut to the chase, “I was bored to tears.”\u00a0 Calls her forgettable and boring.\u00a0 Dude.\u00a0 She was.<\/p>\n Jason Castro:<\/strong> “If I Fell”\u00a0 Oh, he’s got the guitar again.\u00a0 Dude…\u00a0 He has pretty blue eyes…\u00a0 Sorry Jay, I prefer brown.\u00a0 I was bored.\u00a0 I mean, he sounds nice, but…\u00a0 blah…\u00a0 you know???\u00a0 Randy tuned out too.\u00a0 Paula felt his heart.\u00a0 Simon calls him, “Student in a bedroom at midnight.”<\/p>\n Carly Smithson:<\/strong> “Come Together” She’s good.\u00a0 Dh didn’t like it, but then against, she said she was going to change it.\u00a0 Randy said it was amazing.\u00a0 Paula claims that she couldn’t wait until the top 12 so Carly could really show…\u00a0 Ok..\u00a0 simon says it was finally the right song, and compares Carly to Kelly Clarkson.<\/p>\n David Cook:<\/strong> “Eleanor Rigby” Dude rocks.\u00a0 I loved it, I could totally hear that playing on the radio these days.\u00a0 Randy said dude!\u00a0 you got this!\u00a0 Paula wants to ride him..\u00a0 at least she keeps calling him the thoroughbred.\u00a0 Simon thought it was brilliant.<\/p>\n Brooke White:<\/strong> “Let it Be” wow.\u00a0 this is beautiful.\u00a0 I’d probably buy this single from Walmart.\u00a0 this girl has a career, that’s for sure.\u00a0 Randy says her performance was heartfelt, and Paula says her niche is picking songs that show her heart.\u00a0 Simon thought it was one of the best of the night.<\/p>\n David Hernadez:<\/strong> “I Saw Her Standing There”\u00a0 I think he beats Jason Castro, only because of the energy.\u00a0 He has good energy.\u00a0 This was fun to watch. Castro just sat there with his guitar and his slow song. Dave here ran all over and tried to rock.\u00a0 Castro has the better voice, Dave H has the better stage presence.\u00a0 Randy says he really needed to cut loose, Paula giggles like a schoolgirl when Dave says he loves her.\u00a0 Simon thought it corny going on desperate and tell the audience to shut up.<\/p>\n Amanda Overmyer:<\/strong> “You Can’t Do That” Can someone tell her to stop wearing all black & white.\u00a0 She is allowed to wear other colors.\u00a0 The stripes are distracting…\u00a0 She rocks, but everytime I hear her, I feel concern for her voice. \u00a0 Randy says she took a Beatle’s song to a southern bar.\u00a0 Paula says she’s a star.\u00a0 Simon says it was as good as last week, and he only understood about 30% of it, worrys about her voice.\u00a0 then he tells Paula to shut up, and starts a pissing match with Paula.\u00a0 Paula – Simon will win!\u00a0 He’s not drunk and can shoot further than you with his fly zipped.<\/p>\n Michael Johns:<\/strong> “Across the Universe” He can sing.\u00a0 We know that.\u00a0 Don’t know how memorable this was…\u00a0 Randy says it wasn’t his best, and that it was a little sleepy.\u00a0 Paula is sunshine and kittens as always…\u00a0 Simon agrees with Randy, that it was monotonous.<\/p>\n Kristie Lee Cook:<\/strong> “8 Days a Week” It feels like she’s rushing the song a bit…\u00a0 but otherwise it’s good, and I like the country sound with this song.\u00a0 She doesn’t work the stage as well as some of the others.\u00a0 Randy says she forced too many runs.\u00a0 Paula actually didn’t like it at all.\u00a0 Simon thought it was horrendous.\u00a0 I really don’t think it was that bad.\u00a0 I disagree with Simon, it’s not that the song doesn’t work in that style, it’s just that she sang the song to fast.\u00a0 Seacrest is trying to instigate a fight ‘tween Simon and Paula.<\/p>\n David Archuletta:<\/strong> “We can work it out”\u00a0 oh no!\u00a0 he forgot the lyrics!!!!\u00a0 Ouch!\u00a0 Good thing he has such huge fan base.\u00a0 I don’t this, much at all…\u00a0 maybe his mike wasn’t on?\u00a0 not his best at all.\u00a0 Randy says it was not on point, and felt forced.\u00a0 Paula says it wasn’t his best, and forgetting the lyrics – never let it show on your face!\u00a0 Listen to that tidbit Davy.\u00a0 Simon said it was the weakest so far.<\/p>\n So who’s headed home???\u00a0 I say the bottom three is Davy, Ramiele, and either Jason Castro or David Hernandez.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Seacrest opens the show by pimping the new set.\u00a0 Enough already… but I do agree… Simon needs to button the shirt…\u00a0 Ick!
