Because I Can… the random thoughts of Marc Scott

American Idol Recap: Third 12 of 36 Results

Posted by Marc Scott On March - 5 - 2009

I am to flabbergasted to even piece together the words necessary to blog tonight.  So this one is going to be short.  First, Idol results…

Lil Rounds… good call.  Great singer.  I’m happy with this choice.

Jorge Nunez… really?  I mean… really?  Sentimental pick or what?  Definitely NOT among the Top 3 performers last night. Don’t get me wrong, the guy has a good voice.  But I just don’t get this one. 

Scott MacIntyre… clearly this is a judges pick.  I mean, they’ve been pushing him all along.  He has a great made for TV story.  The guy has had his moments.  He does have a voice.  I think he is definitely better with a piano. But the last 2 times I’ve seen him perform it’s been weak.

Now the losers… Ju’Not Joyner and Kristen McNamara, as far as I am concerned, are the biggest losers of the night.  Two of the best performances, two of the best voices, and neither of them are through.  That’s just ridiculous!  If somebody has a logical explanation for how Tatiana Del Toro gets a second shot over Kristen, I’d love ot hear it… and then tell you how nuts you are! :p  I will draw the same comparison for Von Smith and Ju’Not.  It’s just mental!

Three people will get in via the Wild Card.  If Tatiana Del Toro is one of them I will do something drastic. I don’t know what that would be, since drastic really isn’t in my nature… but I’ll come up with something!

If I had to pick 3 from the Wild Card list it’s got to be Matt Giraud, Anoop Desai, and I’d call it a toss up between Megan Corkery and Ricky Braddy with the decision leaning slightly more towards Megan.

Matt was awesome in Hollywood.  Then he had a brain fart or something, and sang Coldplay.  As long as he picks something with soul, which is more in his element, he’ll be good.  Anoop gets in because Randy loves him and google searches of his name generate more traffic on my blog than any other googled Idol.  Megan has a shot because she is unique amongst the other females.  Ricky Braddy nailed his song in the first group of 12, but when you’re up against Michael Sarver and Danny Gokey, you don’t stand a chance!  I’m glad he is getting another shot.  I hope he does well.

I guess we’ll find out tomorrow night.  In the meantime, if you need me, I’ll be screaming into my pillow over the prospects of Tatiana making it to the Top 12.
