American Idol/ Doppelganger

Jeni L is right. The resemblance, the hair, the stylized rock

It Now Seems Easy being Green

Despite losing in the finals of Britain's Got Talent, Charlie Green, 11, is going to be signed by BMG Sony along with Faryl Smith and Andrew Jonston. But as of now, George Sampson who did "Singin' In The Rain" the way Gene Kelly would want it to be, is the odd-on favorite. But my favorite are the Cheeky Monkeys because they dance like monkeys and are indeed cheeky and Gin, the dog.

Lights Out for Ramielle

Not a Malubay Fan

Someone commented on Malubay:

Alright, my only question is how the tiny girl is still on. She looks so disconnected from everything she's singing/saying. Does she even understand the words she's saying? Who is voting for her? I don't think Chikezie deserved to win, but he shouldn't have been kicked off yet.

If Only For One Night

It is again that time in AI when they are made to sing a song that came out when they were born, leaving us brooding and nonvoting fans another time to ponder about wisdom and aging. Chikezie, the 22 year old Californian with only one name, sang "If Only for One Night" if I recall was sung by the late Luther Vandross and it was not even his best song. Simon Cowell said, "You chose the wrong song last night. ... It wasn't original." I agree.
Here are some of the songs in 1985 that Chikezie should have sung:
"Nightshift" by Commodores, "Glory Days" or "I'm On Fire" by Bruce Springsteen, "Suddenly" by Billy Ocean, "Valotte" by Julian Lennon (Ha ha ha), "Summer Of '69 by Bryan Adams, "Lay Your Hands On Me"by Thompson Twins, "Broken Wings" by Mr. Mister, "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by Simple Minds, "Sea Of Love" by Honeydrippers, "Raspberry Beret" by Prince & The Revolution, "Things Can Only Get Better" by Howard Jones, "The Boys Of Summer" by Don Henley, "Fortress Around Your Heart" by Sting, "Voices Carry" by 'Til Tuesday, "Be Near Me" by ABC, "Get It On (Bang A Gong)" by Power Station and "You Are My Lady" by Freddie Jackson

or better yet, "We are the World" by USA for Africa

Idol Update

McCartney"s Not Really Happy Now

From Vulture. Amanda is "Back in the USSR." I felt bad because her streaked hair reminds me of my neighbors back in the 1980s. And Ramielle? Not good but I think the Fil-Ams are indeed solid behind her. She's only behind to who else? Brian! Ha ha. Ar chu.
