good gosh
OK we all know American Idol is a big bunch of contrived hooey, and is also of course, quite entertaining...but holy moses they reach a whole new level of excruciating on finale night don't they? Some of the lowlights:
That Mike Myers "Guru" bit. Ugh.
Donna Summer in a bad wig looking like she was going to fall asleep during her own performance. I think they had to have Syesha sing the hard part.
And now the "boys" are murdering a perfectly good 80s pop song by Bryan Adams. Oh look there he is! He looks realllly old. Oooh and he does not sound good.
Oh, now David Cook singing with ZZ Top is kind of awesome. All these little girls in the audience are like, who's ZZ Top? Who's Donna Summer? Who's Seal? Who's Bryan Adams? I hope Paula tells David Cook he's living his truth at the end of this song.
Oh sorry Mike, you are missing Brooke right now. That's what you get for going to Costa Rica. She is singing a nice hippy song with... old guy.. Graham Nash... and no shoes on. But boy, the girl cannot dance! (rewind to the Donna Summer thing).
Now who are these young pups? They are so cute! It is like the Partridge Family. Oh OK, the Jonas Brothers. Well thank god they got someone on the show who has recorded a song in a year starting with a 2.
Now why do they these things where they stick some modern day people into a 30 year old performance? At least Gladys Knight isn't dead (is she?) unlike when they did the Elvis one. This is supposed to by funny and it is not.
Does anyone else think Carrie Underwood is the new Shania Twain? Hello new pop country robot!
George Michael medley...now that's a good choice. George Michael is seriously underrated pop goodness as far as I am concerned. Too bad they are murdering it. Now there's the man himself. Looking pretty old too I'm afraid. And not sounding too good either. Ooh not good at all. Sounds like someone else. Well I'm glad to see Paula is moved by his performance, because that's a pretty hard thing to accomplish.
Good thing I get paid by the word for this blog! Me and Dickens have so much in common.
Holy cow I just fell on the floor! It wasn't Archuleta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was trying to find something to disagree with you about, however it's scary how we think a like. Ask Jill, she has to sit there and listening to me make comments like your through the whole show.
Beth, I expressed the very same thoughts to Mike as we were watching American Idol. Who would have thought Cook would have won, with all of Archie's high school fans. Love your 12 days, but miss the pic's!!

Beth, I love your 12 days, but miss the pic's! Good Gosh what a two hour oldies but goodies. I had the same comments to Mike. Fell off the couch too, couldn't believe Archie lost, with all his teenie bobber voters. I think the best man won. I was so afraid Brook would forget the words while sing with Nash!!
