We have weeks when we watch this show and feel we had no idea where the judges were coming from. We have had weeks when we watch the show and feel we had no idea where the artists were coming from. And we have had weeks when we watch the show and feel we had [...]
Hey, we’re here! We decided to start covering American Idol when it is down to the more serious contenders in the competition. We watched the early episodes of the whole season 9 but was not impressed. Clearly, there is no Adam Lambert this year. It is time for the judges to realize that each artist [...]

How is it that sometimes listening to the doctor can be bad for you? They often make suggestions that are just downright foolish when viewed in the context of a person’s life. One doctor once advised, “Perhaps you should quit your job if it is stressing you?” The obvious response…”And who pays your bill?” This [...]
This is our first time writing about the dancers this season. We do feel that the top ten are indeed the top ten. There were some disappointments along the way, but overall, these ten are the most deserving. That said, we do have our favorites already. We knew were were out of sync a bit [...]
Pop music and resident Adam Lambert devotee Ann Powers gets her first taste of his debut album, "For Your Entertainment." But does she like the goods? Some thoughts: "For Your Entertainment" is a polished affair, but stylistically, it shows Lambert running loose like a kid in a Comme des Garçons store. With the Hollywood pop [...]
“The Acoustic Rocker vs the Glam Rocker. Conway vs California, The guy next door vs the guy liner.” Kris Allen vs Adam Lambert. This week was rather surprising for us. Kris did an excellent job on his first two songs, especially his first, to make it at least seem to be a horse race. 1 [...]
What we liked about Idol tonight was originality. What we didn’t like was the fact that Paula picked a rather obscure song for Danny, which is sang brilliantly. Round One: Danny Gokey – “Dance Little Sister” — Terence Trent D’Arby — Danny got picked to do a song that was rather unknown from most of [...]
This should have been the week to use the save, because there is a good chance that Danny, who did a horrible rendition of Aerosmith, may likely need it to be saved from his first painful performance of the season. But let’s get to the show. (Audio Performances at the end of the post) Adam [...]
We have to believe for the first half of this show, Simon was completely congested. His ears had to be blocked to not hear what we heard. That said, we may sound dull, but we have to repeat ourselves. There are two people in this competition. Danny Gokey and Adam Lambert. We like Danny better [...]
