Yeah, I skipped my review last week. It was a night full of terrible performances and I didn't want to relive it.
So, let's get this out of the way so we can prepare for Daredevil Season 2.
Adam started the show singing his cover of Gary Jules' cover of Tear For Fears' "Mad World."
Trent: Sang "Counting Stars" by One Republic. For some odd reason,
Trent decided to imitate the guy who sings "Cotton Eye Joe." And given
the footage we were shown from his hometown, sing like Rednex isn't too
much of a stretch for him.
#SuchACountry
Dalton: Sang "Numb" by Linkin Park. U2 also has a song called Numb that is vastly superior. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2lbiS1fris Speaking of numb, that describes this performance perfectly. No energy, no heart, no feeling at all.
#Dumb
LaPorshia: Sang "Ready For Love" by India Arie. She came out looking
like some African Queen from an 80's movie. Ridiculous outfit, but a
lot better than that eye gouge inducing outfit from last week. This was a
boring performance.
#QueenOfTheMushroomKingdom
They did something with somebody from Empire. This is one of the reasons I don't watch the show live.
MacKenzie: Sang "Wild World" by Cat Stevens. Another boring
performance. They all must have taken valium before the show started. Or
the producers made them watch Empire.
#MildWorld
Sonika: Sang "Let It Go." She looked good, I'll giver her that. This
performance though, let's just say my ears were jealous of my eyes.
#LetHerBlow
And we say goodbye to Tristan. I hope I get to say Hi to her 3 years from now.
Round 2.
Dalton: He sang "The Sound Of Silence." And boy, do I wish this
performance was the sound of silence, because what I heard was I heard
was a kitten trying to roar like a lion. Dalton needs to learn that just
because he's good on a bicycle, it doesn't mean he'll be great on a
Harley Davidson.
#BiManAndGarbage
Adam came out and sang his new song with somebody named Laleh. Adam,
word pf advice, just stick to singing the songs P!nk left in her
rejection pile.
MacKenzie: Sang "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson. Scotty did a great cover of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_6XcvppP9o
This performance though, was pure unadulterated crap. It was like
handing a retard a ball of play-doh and telling him to sculpt a
miniature Mount Rushmore.
#LosucktusOfBourg
Trent: Sang "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynryd. Yep, simple man.
#SingBlade
Sonika: Sang "Clarity" by Zedd. She did a good job of not getting
flustered when she sang the wrong lyrics. Again, this group proves that
they would be better singing songs from kids shows. Note to LaPorsha:
That's a body suitable for that kind of outfit.
#YourSaveWasCharity
LaPorsha: Her intro video informed us that she was with a guy who
didn't like her voice or her hair. Hell, that could be anybody. She also
said he was abusive and made her feel less than human. So she did the
logical thing and stayed with him and decided to have his kid. She sang
"No More Drama" by Mary J Blige. She sounded horrible and did her usual
vocals. Then she completely ignored the title of the song and started
crying after she was done. Because if there is one thing American Idol
loves more than over-the-top singers, it's over-the-top singers who have
emotional breakdowns after performances. Come on, we need to trend on
Twitter and Facebook!
