tonight is american idol season 8 disco night and i expect fun all night long. with two idols going home tomorrow, after the judges saved matt giraud last week, the idols must bring their a game to please the viewers.so here is my rankings for tonight's performances:
7. adam lambert - he took the risk of slowing down the melody but it is getting too predictable. if the song is slow, he speeds it up. if the song is fast, he slows it up. i hate the shrieking portion. i think this is his worst so far. he is getting too boring...
6. matt giraud - i expected more from him since he needs to step it up after being in the brink of elimination last week. it was okay, he changed the arrangement a bit but it was nothing special.
5. lil rounds - it was not a bad performance, but it was not great. it was okay and was a bit too over the top to me, to the point that it becomes too shouty. but the song exhibited her great voice. but going first would definitely hurt her chances.
4. anoop desai - i think he did okay but the start was too slow or me. i think it does not deserve the pimp spot but it will help him get through. the song showed his range and he did okay. i think we will still see him on stage next week.
3. danny gokey - i liked danny's performance tonight. he played with the arrangement a bit and it sounded good. it was not his best but it was good. i think it was enough to keep him in the competition. but at this stage of the competition, he becomes somewhat predictable. he needs to wow us next week for him to stay in the running.
2. allison iraheta - i like the fact that she is now exhibiting control of her voice. i initially hated her for being too shouty but now, she knows how to control it. she started soft, built it up and highlighted it in the end. but i still don't like the outfit...
1. kris allen - kris got a song nobody expected him to pick. it was really a risk and it paid off. he knows what he is capable to do and maximizes it. i love how he changed the melody and he really rocked it!
i did not expect disco night to be this boring, with everyone trying to slow their songs down. my bottom three based on performance are adam, matt and lil. but i think the bottom three will be lil, adam and anoop. who will go home? i think matt and lil will go home.
