gridlox Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Tough decision on who to keep this week? Elliott or Katherine. I totally did NOT care for her first song Or Elliott's either for that matter. 2nd Song - Both nailed it!! Catherine was lucious as ever sitting there center stage!! (to quote Morris Day from the movie Purple Rain - "So Sex-y!!") Have to agree, it was her best performance of the year! 3rd song - Elliot has got some good pipes, but the song just didn't grab me for some reason. It was OK, but missing something (for me, at least) Same for Katherine - great vocals over all but she oversang it in several places. TAYLOR? HE ROCKED!!! While he didn't have the best vocals of the season, he was definate the most entertaining! Awesome stage presence and you can tell he feels right at home in the limelight! His second song sealed his win!! Definately his style of music! And to think... Simon didn't even want to let him come to Hollywood. If I remember correctly when talking with Randy & Paula after Taylor left the room, he said, "He'll never even make it to the final 24." Dang! What are we gonna do with our Tuesday and Wednesday nights after next week? D-man Link to comment
+Bailey Nippon 4 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Katherine: Song 1 - Blech. I didn't like how she sang the song in her own style. Holy crap did she look yummy! Song 2 - WOW!!! Brilliant job! WOW WOW WOW Song 3 - S-S-S-Sultry Katherine! Great! Awesome! Wow! Yahoo! Yummy! Oh yea, she sang it well too! Now I am definitely going to have to watch the show.... even if the songs aren't so hot... 1:45 minutes until show time. (Yeah yeah I know...) Link to comment

(Yeah yeah I know...) in all fairness to BN4, and other international folks who are on a major time delay, please try and refrain from announcing the winner next week. i know that it will be hard, but lets not ruin it for them! -TP Link to comment
+sawblade5 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 If your on the severe time lag, I would say don't even watch a news channel or sign on to the internet if your wanting to hear who the winner is because it will be on the news sites and fan web sites everywhere. If you start looking around the internet or on news channels it inevitable that you will hear who won before the show comes on in your area. Link to comment

+Bailey Nippon 4 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 It doesn't bother me to know early. I still watch the show. Hey, I have to have something to complain about when the "viewers" pick an inappropriate person to stay or go. I could always look up somewhere else if I really wanted to know the results. I just like reading people's comments in this forum. Comments on the performance: Elliot's 3 songs - too often off-key. He does some good things but that second song...whew...the cat (not KAT) was yowling. Katherine...best song for her last night...Over the Rainbow...last song was as Simon often says...very Karaoke...not her style and inappropriately performed...it didn't have the umph.. Taylor...though a bit pitchy on a couple occasions...by far the best performer to overcome the pitchiness. I agree with PEZ not the best voice but the best performer and I think he will win now that Chris, the other decent performer is gone. Who will stay....Taylor and Kat Link to comment

+Bailey Nippon 4 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I looked and no one listed the two finalists or who went home. What a crew. (Well okay...all of the "Go Taylor's" was a give away.) All I have to say is how close was that? I think Elliott sang his two best tonight. He was good tonight. Perhaps the pressure was off a bit and he could relax and sing his way. Oh well....Let the final begin. Will it be the entertainer? Link to comment

Like last year, I don't care who wins. I think that both are marketable. And if those percentages of votes that they showed last night are true, it should be a very close vote! I mean less than 1% of the votes separating them? I am not touching THAT with a 10-ft pole. Link to comment

All of us at work have been following this year and a bunch of our customers have too. On the informal poll of "the shop, our customers, & my family", (about 25 people) all but 2 voted for Taylor.

gridlox Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 (edited) Round 1 = Taylor Round 2 = Katherine Round 3 = Taylor In Kathrine's defense, the final "song" for her was really bad. Not only was it not a good song, the key was too low for her. That fine looking tight dress might have played a part in it also, since Ryan made the statement that she wasn't even breathing in it. Taylor still continues to be my choice to win! SOUL PATROL!!! SOUL PATROL!!! SOUL PATROL!!! D-man Edited May 24, 2006 by gridlox Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I think Kat is more of a pop star than Taylor. But I think Taylor is a better performer. Like last year, it doesn't matter who wins. Since they both have their own songs, it's obvious they both will have recordings coming out. So they both win Link to comment
+Bailey Nippon 4 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Bad reception and technical difficulties we heard only the last two song. I would have to say...neither was very impressive... At least from the reading of the column it sounds like Talor may be the one.....Tomorrow..... Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 So who voted? I managed to get 5 in for Kat around 12:50 am. From the looks of this thread, I figured she needed the most help. Link to comment
