AMERICAN IDOL UPATES - WEEK 24 MARCH 2008
This week we bid goodbye to one talented singer in the competition. Chikezie has been showing consistency in his performances week after week, but chose unfortunately one boring song to perform yesterday, which costs him an elimination from becoming the next American Idol. The other two bottom three contestants were Jason & Syesha.
This week my favourite picks will be Michael Johns & David Cook. For Michael, I've always liked all his performances but unfortunately he has yet to get a 'splendid' compliment from the judges until last night, when he finally picked an all time favourite band, Queen's medley, which rocked the place and earned him great comments from all the judges (finally!).
I have to admit David Cook initially didn't catch my attention because I did not like his fashion sense. Looks like he has improved in his image (he looks much better lately), and has proven he is indeed talented, consistent and very creative with his songs arrangements, first with his rendition of Lionel Ritchie's Hello and yesterday Michael Jackson's Billie Jean, superb!
Contestants that failed to impress : Brooke (lousy rendition of Every Breath You Take), Archuleta (not too bad but getting boring if he does not prove that he can do more than just great ballads. Twice he attempted faster tempo numbers, twice he failed), Ramiele (chose a song that was too big for her, Heart's Alone, ended up shouting in a few parts).
