American Idol Day 9: Adele Night

Yesterday, the Top 7 performed 2 songs; one that makes them dance, and an Adele song. We are now left with 5 contestants as 2 have been eliminated;

McKenna Faith Breinholt- I did say she would be going home soon

Julia Gagnon- well that was a surprise 😳

With Julia gone, Abi is now the only remaining platinum ticket (honestly, I had a feeling she would probably go the farthest out of the 3)

Time to rank;

Part 1: Songs That Make You Dance-

#5: Abi Carter

My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em' Up)- Fall Out Boy

She said she can't dance, and it was painfully obvious. She wasn't terrible vocally though

#4: Emmy Russell

Shut Up & Dance- Walk The Moon

Nerves got to her again and she somewhat missed the point of the assignment

#3: Triston Harper

T.R.O.U.B.L.E- Travis Tritt

Vocally he wasn't better than Emmy, but at least his nerves were under control. And if he keeps dancing he's gonna make my heart explode from over-exposure to adorableness 😂

#2: Will Moseley

Gimme Three Steps- Lynyrd Skynyrd

That was probably his most fun performance

#1: Jack Blocker

Long Tall Sally- Little Richard

The dude finally tops a list

Part 2: Adele Songs-

#5: Triston Harper

Easy On Me

Not the right song for him

#4: Emmy Russell

Water Under The Bridge

She was a little awkward to me

#3: Will Moseley

Rolling In The Deep

I would've liked it more if the note were higher

#2: Jack Blocker

One & Only

Back to second place

#1: Abi Carter

Hello

Perfect song choice

More next week. Thanks For Reading

So.......The Bride😕

So I was completely off-track with The Bride . Did not expect the film to crash and burn as hard as it did with both critics AND the box-office. After getting murdered, a woman by the name of Ida is brought back to life with the intention of being a companion to the oh-so iconic Frankenstein. And together they wreck havoc. Like Wuthering Heights , the movie wasn't terrible but it had a lot of problems. The biggest issue with this film is that it tries way too hard to be edgy and it just doesn't work. It wanted to be this hardcore feminist take on Frankenstein , but it just felt convoluted and slightly underwritten. It had this plotline involving Ida causing some revolution for women and did pretty much nothing with it until the last minute. It was kind of a let down. The best thing about the movie however was the performances and chemistry between Buckley and Christian Bale. I thought they were strangely endearing, and this might be a better love story than Wuthering Heights (...

Last Minute Music Reviews

So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1; Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued. Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you. How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...
