Canadian Idol Fans Watching American Idol

Heartless. Ha, I'm used to hearing YouTube vids of this, so he sounds less good than I'm used to (sound-quality-wise). The rest of them sound better, because I'm used to underwater cellcasts of them, mainly.

KRIS!!! *squee*

So Adam has said the Bowie medley is closest to the music he's going to be doing post-show. Any opinions about that? Because this is the weakest thing in his set, imho.

Yeah, you know I do agree with that. I don`t think the Bowie medley does him justice. People seem to like it though.. what do I know...

Kris sounds great. ATTID is really good.

Haha. Long island is crazy. I went to college in upstate NY with a lot of Long Island kids. I had a girlfriend from there, and one of my best friends. Had some amazing times on Long Island.

Those Polynesians are sick!

lol

LOL!

Holy shiznit, Ain't No Sunshine was sooooooo good.

Bright Lights pretty amazing, too! Of course we don't get to see him play the guitar.

His set is really "organic" to use a cliche about him. I never noticed it so much before. Totally biased opinion, but he has something none of the others have.
I don't claim to know what it is, but it's special. Hey Jude is much better than I ever thought, too. Makes me feel sorta emotional. How this guy does it...I don't know.

Oh, yeah. I meant to add. The locals say it: Lawn Guyland.

Yeah, it was great listening to his set from beginning to end. I wouldn't do it with worse sound though. My ears are crying a bit right now.

Huh?

Wonder how this was recorded? Hm, Rickey is saying how it was recorded, now, but I'm sort of tuning him out.

Well, that's what it sounds like -- with the New York accent. That's how they say it. The hard G. Hard to explain if you don't know how they talk. Kind of like Mike Myers in the SNL Coffee Talk sketches.

Rickey annoys me a lot but I'm glad he does the cellcasts.

Digital voice recorder I think he said. That was fun.

Now, I feel stupid. So obvious now!

Nice David Cook article. Thanks, missaddicted. Was it only a little over a year ago that David Cook won AI? It seems like he's been around quite a while.

Yet I remember going into the record store across the street from where I live, last year, and hearing his CD being played -- hearing it for the first time. The manager was an Idol fan, and a big Cook fan. Now the store is closed due to the recession.

For me it seems like it was yesterday! Time goes by so fast.

That's sad about the record store. Damn recession.

Yeah.

Live blogging was fun, though! Good night.

MSNBC review. Not an easy reviewer to please, but Allison, Adam and Kris got her attention.

Kris tweeted 9 hours ago he had 80,000 followers. Now he has about 800 more. Go Kris! (He got congrats from Slezak. I love Slezak's tweets to Kris, he always calls him "Sir." Haha.)

American Idols in Canada. My worlds are colliding. Scott MacIntyre is tweeting about Tim Horton's. Shouldn't it be Mitch MacDonald?

I'm confused. I mean, I'm a Canadian Idol fan.

No. I'm an American Idol fan.

No, I'm a Canadian Idol fan.

Lol - I was watching (and downloading - *shhh*) the Canadian Idol performances from the Rivoli . They still stand up. I *heart* them. Grapevine with Gary, Omar and Drew.. so awesome.

and no I haven't seen those! Did you see the Jim/Kris outtake interviews from MTV? 2 new ones. Jim is great, and Kris is hilarious. Love them.
