Top 9
This week
the kids performed songs from their own idols. The show pulled out a pop legend
to counter balance the fakeness of last week’s Puffy. This week’s mentor is
Stevie Nicks – rock queen.
Colton
(Everything) He called it his favorite worship song. Well, we learn something new
every day. I didn’t realize there were church songs that didn’t make you clap
and stomp your feet. I thought it was more of a 80s rock ballad. He is the best rocker in years and stays true
each week. I guess the tears were legit but unnecessary – he will be back.
Watch here:
Skylar (Gunpowder
and lead) What a song choice! Little red said “he ain’t seen crazy yet” and
singing about shooting a man in the ass. I am actually scurrred. The backstory
is lil Skylar is getting backlash for promoting deer hunting in her packages
LOL. I like her for staying true country. I wouldn’t buy it – but I know
someone who may get me to “find” a copy. She brings it every week. She could be
the next Carrie Underwood.
Watch here:
HeeJun (A song
for you) Play time is OVER for HeeJun. He got a new attitude with being close
to getting the boot last week, Seeing someone MUCH better than he leave before
him. He finally put the jokes in the trunk and coming to (try) to win. Even tho
he sounded like he was gasping for air – he hit the right notes in the right
spots – Convincing me that he should be in the top 10. It was the best he sang
all season….He STILL aint gonna win, cause J.lo said she loves the funny..so it
may slip back real soon.
Watch here:
Hollie
(Jesus take the wheel) What a mentor moment when she made Stevie Nicks cry in
rehersals – that’s what mentors are supposed to do – inspire. It’s always weird
when the current contestants sing a hit from a previous Idol – too soon? It
wasn’t her BEST performance but good.
Watch here:
DeAndre
(Sometimes I cry) Nope! D is trying to bring back the Prince falsetto and
nobody can ever out prince Prince Rogers Nelson. I didn’t like it. He made my
ear hurt. He got a standing O so clearly
I am out of the loop.
Watch here:
Jessica
(Sweet Dreams) A Plus – Jessica is back, taking a page from Phillip's book and
slowed down a dance track. Unlike DeAndre – Jessica out Beyonce’ed a Bootayance
jam. Blue Ivy’s mom better snatch that back for a remix.

Watch here:
Phillip
Phillips (Still Raining) I didn’t this song it but it didn’t matter – he did his
thang- YET AGAIN, giving us one of the
best of the night. Stevie Nicks kept saying he reminded her of her ex back in
the day – so Phillip got the legend seal of approval… end the show right now –
he is gonna make some cash.
Watch here:
Joshua
(Without you) BOUGHT IT! Yep, he is this
only dude to take on the Mariah version. This kid aint no joke. He brought it
this week.
Listen: (no
video avail)
Elis (Whole
lotta love) When did she become the rocker chick? We need a Pat Benatar night
for Elis to shine even further. A+

Thanks DJRR! Even when I can't watch, I know I can count on you to catch me up. What do you think about HeeJun being sent packing?
