Motown Week

Let's go!

Matt – Let’s Get It On – I don’t like him being first..but someone has to be. I LOVE his piano playing. I think he sang the song well. It had low parts in the middle. He is definitely more confident behind the piano. But I am glad he tried stepping behind the piano and trying something new.

Kris – How Sweet It Is – The opening was weak. Guitar completely unnecessary. I am on a gallon of hater-ade when it comes to him. Can’t stand him. And I hate the wife too.

Scott – You Can’t Hurry Love – It was awful. I like Scott. But he needs to go home. I really wanted him to stop and was wishing it was over.

Meghan – For Once in My Life – This was terrible. Train wreck comes to mind. It was laughable. The outfit, voice, her moving around?!? Booooo! Go Home.

Anoop – Ooh Baby Baby – He sung it well, but looked strangely out of place. I would have liked to have seen him in a suit.

Michael – Aint Too Proud to Beg – Too happy. It makes it karaoke when you smile through a pleading song. He is singing SOUL music and he is singing like he lost his at the crossroads. Strong finish. But if he felt it and stopped grinning like a fool - it could have been his comeback. The issue is that he is good and we want great. He just didn't put that umpf into it and it’s frustrating.

Lil Rounds – Heatwave – Good performance. She was shouting at times. I didn’t like it. Aint No Mountain High Enough would have been better.

Adam – Tracks of My Tears – Damn! He knocked it out of the park. Just the ending. Well down. Some keys were strange to me, but I liked it. It was smooth. That is what they mean by FEELING a song!

Danny – Get Ready – Up tempo song. Not bad. I think if I heard this before Adam, I would have loved it. Just a switch of gears after hearing the good slower songs. I liked it but not my favorite of the night.

Allison – Poppa Was a Rolling Stone – It was hot. I liked it. She has the power vocals and the stage presence. I liked her haircut.

Top performance – Adam & Allison. Bottom performances – Meghan & Michael. Still loving Matt and Danny. Kris and Scott should start packing for the coming weeks. Anoop and Lil Rounds are wild cards. But we shall see. Until tomorrow….c-ya!
