Nice Hair

Tonight’s show was dedicated to “80’s Pop Hair Band” Bon Jovi. A genre of music that you would have thought could be relatively easily handled by the remaining 6 suspects, it wasn’t.

The majority of tonight’s’ combatants, 4 of the six, shouted, screeched, and vibrated their vocals, using them like a weapon to beat Bon Jovi’s music into submission.

Let’s Light This Candle

Up first, in the dreaded number one position, is Phil Stacey, singing “Blaze of Glory” from the movie, “Young Guns.”

Phil has become the shows “Filler,” like peanuts at the bar.
He has become the capable “Wedding Singer” of season six.
He does a good but forgettable performance.
He has no chance of winning.
He will survive tonight…

NeverMind

First off let me say, I Love This girl. I have her winning it all.
Having said this, I have to also be honest,
she destroyed “Living on a Prayer.”
She was all over the place with her vocals.
She was unable to keep up with the musical arrangement.

Flat, pitchy, just plain bad. She picked the wrong song.
She had an off night.

Better now than in three weeks.
She still wins…

“I’ll Stand…I want the Camera to git my THIN SIDE”

Dressed like a woman in line at the Walmart,
Koo-Koo took on “This Ain’t a Love Song.”
If Jon ever decides to start the “First Church of Bon Jovi”,
I have the perfect Choir Director for him.

Jones, “Jesus Upped” her performance while building momentum
towards her trademark song ending move of Yelling
the final lines of every song that she performs.

I imagine that even if she were to sing Lullabies to a
nursery full of newborns, she would end by shouting the lyrics
and waking every infant in the room.
Going Home to Flint…

Isn’t Blake Cute?

For my money, this was the Performance of the evening.
The opening had him vocally cuing up a vinyl album.
This alone won my baby boomer heart.

He took a risk by changing the arrangement of this Beer Soaked
Lovers lament, “You Give Love A Bad Name.”
By taking a great risk, he was able to reap great rewards.

His vocals were spot on, and more contemporary than they have
been in recent weeks.

I also could not believe that he was able to pull off a mini
drum solo in the middle of his song, but he did it.

He has reinstated himself back into the position of “The Dark horse”
of the competition.
He survives…..

I choose Dead

Well, he dropped the nasally and whiny and took a page
from the Lakisha Book of singing by screaming the lyrics
from start to finish. It was harsh, and it never got any better.
Go Home Poser……

“Just Like Tina”

Praised by the judges as giving a performance reminiscent
of Tina Tuner, only without the Legs and sexiness, DooDoo
Plopped out another top shelf, back up vocal, quality performance
upon America.

Doing her interpretation of “Have a Nice Day” Doo Doo tried
desperately to show her “Rough” rocker side. She growled,
she pranced and posed. She was her usual self, dull and boring.
The only thing that could possibly keep her out of the final will be
Blake. Fox’s producers pick advances another week…
