Well, even though things are a bit hectic and weepy around here-I did make the time last night to watch the show. Everyone doing the songs of Dolly Parton was a dismal idea and if they're going to follow thru w/ this 'everyone doing the same artist' thing for the whole season, we are in for a major snooze.
Quickly, here's my take on last night:
The Best:
1. Michael -Bluesy vocals and lots of passion. FOr the 2nd week, he impressed me the most.
The Good:
2. Carly-great slow version of a classic up-tempo country song. Lots of powerful Sheena Easton style vocals and she was brilliantly on-key.
3. David C.-Finally he gave us an original take on a great song. It wasnt as good as last week but it was his own, which made it very nice. His vocals were on point.
4. David A.-Really good and very smooth. I didnt like the song choice and it was a bit cheesy but the vocals were undoubtedly great.
5. Syesha-Even though she should have continued to make the song her own, instead of sinking to a lackluster version of Whitney's version at the end, she sang it well. Her upper register still seems a little shrill to me. But she hit every key and held it nicely.
6. Jason-very nice. Very listenable...great vocal delivery. Catchy cover of a good song. I think it was good stuff.
The Bad:
7. Kristy- It should have been her week but it wasnt. It was a pitiful song choice that did not call for enough challenge vocally. Yet again, she fails to impress.
8. Ramiele-very forgettable. Her vocals have been worse but the performance was painfully mediocre.
The Ugly:
9. Brooke-this version of my favorite Parton song was beyond dull. The stomp-rhythym and the lowered key were distracting enough but she sang it with absolutely none of the passion that Parton possessed. Her worst week, in my book.
