What was that last note.....?

I don't think the arrangements are doing anyone any justice. That being said - so far, Vonzell was the only one I consider to have nailed her song

Terrible song choice. "Hideous" explains it.

I agree with Craig... I wonder who has done these arrangments

[Craig]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:33pm

A monkey with a casio...

[Johnnytoc]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:33pm

I agree; that was...wow, Hideous

Vocally I agree Vonzell has done the best so far. She nailed People and made me actually like another person singing it other than Barbra.

Mr. Roxy, I totally agree with you, although not her best performance, Carrie definitly ranks high tonight....I agree, they were way too hard on her...

For once I agree with Simon.

That was the worth rendition of CEM I've ever heard.

Wow is all I have to say. I hope they never try this again. And I am getting really sick of these "arrangements", I want to turn it off, but now its a matter of morbid curiousity, kinda like why people stop and stare at car accidents.

Craig I actually think a "A monkey with a casio..." could have done a better job the musical director of this show

Please don't butcher West Side...please...please...please.

um I think the guy singing from WSS is channeling Taye Diggs with the outfit, but he's the first one that can admit to actually haven seen the musical he's performing a song from..

Yep West Side Story was just butcher.......Take a big knife and cut open the classics.... I think the NY Times should do an article saying why Broadway and American Idol should never be mixed...

[Theatreboy49]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:38pm

I concur. I do think however Niko did ok.

[timote316]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:39pm

Vocally good, but he still butchered the song. Wow, two West Side Story songs butchered in one season...

I wish Paula would stop interupting Simon every time he says anything. He is polite enough to let her finish she should do the same.

Hey was that just Dick Martin from Laugh-In they showed in the audience just before going to commercial?

[Theatreboy49]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:40pm

They should do this again but do it with modern shows and do the actual songs, dont do the stupid f***ing arrangments to make it all hip. IT butchers them before they start. I also dont think this was the group to do it on. I think next year might work cuz it wont be with these people.

[kates]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:41pm

Especially since Simon is the only one of them that seems to have a bit of sense.

[Benzy92]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:41pm

Scott was beyond awful, Constantine was pretty good, Carrie nailed hers.. even though I dont love the song, Vonzell did pretty good.. a few pitch problems, Anthony killed the song completely.. the worst so far, and Nikko just did astounding IMO.

[CTY]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:41pm

which other wss song did they butcher?

he vocally was good...but that arrangement...please, just kill me now

[Aladdin]

Posted: 4/5/05 at 8:41pm

Paula is all about babying these people...Come of it People if they suck, they SUCK!!! and I dont know about you people but so far I think most of them have SUCKED.....
