American Idol
Tonight is Mariah Carey night! Tell me you're not eagerly anticipating this? It'll be a train wreck! Mariah Carey giving advice on singing! (Sorry, I just can't get over the whispery runs thing. It drives me nuts. She's got too much of a natural gift to resort to things that much worse singers have to do to sound good.) These kids trying to sing Mariah Carey songs!!!
Also, voting is now open for the stupid American Idol Songwriting Contest. *eye roll* I may be harsh, but I've scored almost all the songs really low. Most suck. A few sound like one of the contestants. (I voted low on the ones that sounded like they're aimed at Kristy Lee. Just NO.) One sounded very Jason Castro, but the lyrics were crap.
On the plus side, one song (male vocalist) had the right sound and lyrics. Can't remember the name of it, but I could actually hear a decent song that any of the contestants could put their own spin on. It sounded like one that would fit David Cook the best, but the vibe also suited David A., Jason Castro, Brooke and Carly. Now that is the sign of a song that will work.
