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 ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰


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.

So.......The Bride๐Ÿ˜•

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...
