If memory serves, last year they sang 3 different songs, this year the producers decided that they would each sing the winner from the song writers contest...the song was 'eh' but very slanted towards Jordans vocal style vs Blakes...he did the best he could but it just wasn't him.

Ally guess who i'm gonna be seeing live on Saturday before Bon Jovi at Tiger Jam? Chris Daughtry. Yup he is opening for Bon Jovi. I am excited since this is the first time i really want to be there in time to see him perform before my guys take the stage.

I really loved him on Idol and am so glad i get the chance to see him live now

AllyOops! · 05-23-2007, 02:46 PM

Oh, I'm so jealous & so excited for you at the same time!!

I love Chris!! He made me swoon last season and I was so shocked & heartbroken when he was voted off!

I think he is so talented! You HAVE to give me details about the concert!! I'll be dying to know!!

madmonkeygirl · 05-23-2007, 05:21 PM

Ally you got it. Hey give me your cell number i might just call you and let you hear some lmao....of Chris that is if i'm in my seat long enough. I was so sad that he got voted off too but so glad he has a band and i get to see him in 3 days. I know i will give you a full report honest. Plus my seat is side view/rear view on Richie's side so i'm pleased. I won't be on the floor this time but still i'll have a nice rear end view of the guys lmao....plus with my nice digital camera and it's powerful zoom i'll have pics lmao....

want to find out who won...

AllyOops! · 05-23-2007, 10:34 PM

So this is Jordin's "now"...

Is it my lot in life to bring defeat to any Idol contestant that I root & vote for?!?! Carrie Underwood was the only one who escaped that curse when I voted & rooted for her! However, having said that, I was very excited for Jordin. She's a lovely & talented girl with such a vibrant "spark" to her (hardy har har).

This Thread is so important to me that I'm actually posting on it when it's way past my bedtime. Some people dream of becoming American Idols. Others dream of posting on the American Idol Thread.

I really enjoyed tonight's finale!! So much fun with mega-watt star power!

Highlights?

*Doug E. Fresh & Blake Lewis! How much fun was that?!? I loved that song when it was popular! If only I could remember the name of it! Anybody?

*The girls looked so lovely in their white dresses! In fact, all of the fashions tonight were so beautiful! Kudos, stylists! The girls & boys looked stunning!

*2 words: Gwen Stefani. I loved the song & the pink poofy golden bow dress! Gwen is like, one of my very favorites EVER.

*All of the former Idols (sans Fantasia) reuniting and singing on stage together!

*Kelly Clarkson has an amazing voice! I was very excited to see her perform on stage again!

Lastly..

*Sanjaya. This is so unbelievably wrong, but with his hip trenchcoat and wind-blown locks, Sanjaya was one smokin' piece of ass. And I'm going to rot because biologically I'm old enough to be that boy's mother. And that breaks my heart for so many reasons.

I can't wait to hear what y'all have to say! I'll have so much more to add tomorrow! Nighty-night, friends!

Ooh! madmonkeygirl! I need to send you my cell phone number!!!!

I didn't watch much, but I did catch Sanjaya. I thought his performance was better and more fun than last time because he played up being a rock star. The vocal was still weak, though. He doesn't have the power to walk and sing. I wonder if they paid that little girl more than her seats to embarrass her again.

Carrie sounded weird and weak. Like she had back spasms or something.

Thanks for that insight... I was thinking more like she had some major beany del taco hours before and was feeling the stomach muscles screaming.. "Let me out, let me out!"

LOL....

Agree that Sanjaya had the same problem last night as always, he just didn't have the vocals to carry him and I am of the opinion that only vote for the worst kept him around as long as he was. As to the final vote wowzers on the numbers. I was disappointed but not surprised at the results. I won't claim that they are rigged but anyone else notice, the winner pattern tends to be boy girl boy girl? Be it that they slanted the song choice in favor of Jordan or just pure luck that "my now" song while on it's own is still just 'eh', it was as opposite of Blakes style as country week was.

The show last night was LONG and the golden Idols were at best 'tacky' ..... I don't even have words for the first one with the overaged, outrageously attired person. Then the best friend award where they inform him that they are officially sponsoring the little critter and they've named it Simon? Granted the boys had to agree to the humilation but still....tacky.

Ok i did watch a bit of it during LOST (damn me for changing channels but changed back in the nick of time there). First off i'm glad i missed Sanjia (spelling there) thankfully i couldn't stand him at all anyways. I think this season there to me wasn't that great a talent as previous seasons. Sure the contestants can sing but to me it just wasn't amazing it was rather blah.

I guess when it comes down to it i knew Jordin was gonna win anyways.

Plus i think i have Daughtry fever now. Only two more days til i see him in concert. Sorry but if i have to suffer thru an American Idol concert i want it to be Chris Daughtry that i'm sitting thru.

Otherwise i wouldn't pay any money to see any of them.
