Great post Dave...'attaboy'

Ok, so am I the only one who noticed that as the camera from the ceiling was focused on What's His Name? supposedly playing the piano during 'Apologize' that it was obviously a 'handsynch'...or is that a handjob...Dave?

Did anyone else notice that Gokey was not wearing his fake wedding ring?

Hard not to notice. He was making extra hand gestures in front of his face to make sure the camera caught it.

It was hard also not to notice no ring when in the middle of his numbers being announced after the 2nd song, he suddenly remembered he had to do the heart gesture.

For those who say he doesn't bring up his dead wife, why does he do the heart gesture at the end of his songs or during his phone numbers if he's not trying to play on the viewers' sympathies?

Despite all the pimping and publicity, it's unlikely Adam will win. I don't think that Adam is enough of a front runner in terms of actual votes to compensate for a Gokey/Kris combined voting block. Both Gokey and Kris have large fan bases neither of which would likely vote for Adam if their contestant is voted off. I think there is a good possibility that Kris wins this year. If not, then it'll be Gokey. Adam is the least likely to win.

Hey now, I thought making up fake bible quotes was my job! That was a good one.

Adam and Douche both sucked, and whoever that other guy was on the piano and guitar - did they just add that guy as a wildcard this week or something? I don't remember seeing him before.

Dave, great review, but don't you think you were a little hard on Kanye? Just because the guy likes fishsticks, doesn't mean he's not a musical genius.

A few random thoughts...

1. Why doesn't Kris open up his eyes -- EVER -- when he sings? They take all the trouble of showing him close-up while at the piano, and he couldn't make eye contact even once?? Even DWD gets that you're supposed to "make love to the camera"...he's horrible at it and makes my skin crawl, but at least he tries.

2. Is it just me, or were they more obvious than usual about NOT showing Adam's boyfriend last night? In the past they've shown all his "Family and Friends" after every performance, but last night they only did once (quickly), then just had close-ups of his parents, and once just his Dad.

3. Hoser - Hilarious avatar!

4. Dave - If you are "garden variety" and Jesus is a Worster, does that mean you live in Eden and we should brace ourselves for a second "fall"??

You're right, it was a sign from God, just not the sign you thought it was.

"Who cares, U2 is an awful band and their songs suck."

Have to mildly disagree. Edge is pretty talented, The bass and drum player are OK. OTOH, Bono is an awful singer (screamer) and their songs suck (though I do like "When Love Comes to Town" mostly when sung by B.B. King.

Based on last night - they all sucked.

too bad the only one with a consistently good voice, charm, and no bad notes went home last week.

votefornumber1.com, who touts a 90% accuracy rating tallied 8.4 MILLION votes last night. They predict Gokey going home. They seem to be almost always right on - but they did predict Gokey going home last week. Still makes me wonder if Allison really should have gone home.

Love your post. It's so much more enjoyable when the one you really liked is gone and there's nothing or no one to care about.

Hey MulletAss, If youre gonna be a group-think moron, use more comment section cliches.

Singing stops being subjective when one comments on technique and music theory.
