American Idol Final Thoughts

 


So Idol finally chose it's winner. Because this is the finale, the show went all out. Bringing back previously eliminated contestants, and multiple guests (NKOTB, Seal, even CeCe Winans!!!!!!!!). The series also paid tribute to Katy Perry (whom personally I'm glad is leaving). I will not be ranking any performances, I'll just be speaking on the outcome and my final thoughts on the season as a whole;



Third Place: Jack Blocker


My dad was sure he was gonna win. I believed it would be either him or Abi, but I wouldn't have been surprised if Will had pulled an upset


Second Place: Will Moseley


Again, I'm not surprised Will somewhat pulled an upset placing higher than Jack


Winner: Abi Carter


Not surprised at all by her win. Congratulations and good luck 🎉🎉🎉🎉


I was overall fine with this season. There were some surprises and some upsets. Mainly I appreciate the amount of worship songs that were covered this year. Not just from contestants, but some guests as well. That was really nice to see. I really enjoyed doing these commentaries and I look forward to next year. Thanks for reading.

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...

What The Hell Did I Even Watch!?!🤣

I think ever since Lady Gaga's performance in A Star Is Born , musicians have been trying to jump in on the band wagon. The Weekend is one of those musicians who's trying, and failing miserably. First he tried with The Idol , and we all saw how that crashed and burned. And now he decided to turn his newest album Hurry Up Tomorrow into a movie, where he plays a fictionalized version of himself. Oh yeah, Jenna Ortega and  Barry Keoghan are in this too.  The Weekend is obviously on this vendetta to prove to people that he can act, and it's getting kind of pathetic. The movie is just.....not good.  There's barely even a plot, it's just an elongated music video that involves The Weekend crying too much. Now, I will give him some credit for actually trying this time (unlike in The Idol ). But unfortunately, instead of coming off as a troubled musician, this felt like I was watching one of the 3-5 year-olds my mom deals with at her job. I'm aware that this movie was in...
