American Idol Recap

Adam Lambert needs more “American Idol” praise like Michael Phelps needs another Olympic gold medal. But, according to Paula Abdul, Adam is the Michael Phelps of “Idol” and he was the one contestant who really earned the praise Tuesday night. Everyone was good on Tuesday night, which is going to make the Wednesday final four decision tough. I disagree with Simon on his assessment of Allison Iraheta. She was my favorite after Adam. Her smoky voice made “Someone Who’ll Watch Over Me” pretty close to unique. I say pretty close because the whole night I was waiting for someone to do what the judges keep saying they want: Make a song unique, original, fresh, contemporary. These complaints didn’t come up a lot on Rat Pack night, even though the songs everyone except Adam sang them pretty much as they came off the shelves. And no, I don’t think Danny Gokey could make an album of those songs. Come on. Yes, everyone gets caught up in the contestants while they’re on the show, but think about past seasons. When the season is over, people vote with their wallets and they vote for good pop songs, not for the cutest guy on stage. Adam gave “Feeling Good” a rocker spin. God knows why he did it in a Saturday Night Fever suit, but so be it. Jamie Foxx, the night’s mentor, said “The way he sung that song right now, he’s going to knock everybody’s head off.” “Absolutely incredible man,” he said to Adam, during the rehearsal time. “You don’t care who I am at all.” But Adam said he was closing his eyes while he sang because he couldn’t forget that it was Jamie Foxx right there. (At least he didn’t get up in Adam’s “grill” the way he did for Danny Gokey and his fresh breath.) Jamie said Adam took him up and took him down.

Jamie: “I’m crying. He can sing with the best of them. And he’s going to be great.”

And he was.


Randy Jackson: It was a little theatrical and a little too Broadway for me, but you are in the zone consistently dude.

Kara: My mouth drops open every time you perform. … Is he really doing that? Shocking. You’re shocking in a good way. Confusing and shocking and sleazy and superb and way over the top but I don’t know, I like you.

Paula: I get it. Words cannot describe. You make me feel better than good. With every performance I see it’s like watching the Olympics and you’re our Michael Phelps.

Simon: I love Randy saying that you’re too theatrical it’s like complaining that a cow moos too much. … What I get from you is you want to win.


Which is a good thing since it’s certainly looking that way.


1. Kris Allen, “The Way You Look Tonight”

Jamie, describing Kris as a singer: “I’m not trying to sing the throat Olympics, I’m right here. I’m performing the song.”

Jamie to Kris: “You’re my No. 1. This is a dude I’d do a record with.”

Was that a subtle dig at Adam?

Does he need to be taking the stand with him as he sings?

Nice song, but unless someone is making another Meg Ryan/Sandra Bullock comedy and they need a song in the background, I don’t know that this is contemporary.


Randy: What all of us do at this time … is see who’s in it to win it. … I personally think this is your best performance to date … You took your time, you told a story. You had some R&B stylings.

Kara: Songs from this era give you a unique opportunity to show your technical abilities … you have set the technical standard so incredibly high this evening. Your impeccable phrasing, your diction, your timing. … You are truly a dark horse in this competition.

Paula: You’ve made this amazing transition from being the adorable boy next door to handsome sophisticated gentleman.

Simon: I’m not quite as enthusiastic as these three, only because I thought it was a little bit wet. You’re like taking a very well trained spaniel for a walk. It’s all going to be safe, it’s going to be quite nice. I didn’t thin it was incredible. I didn’t get the feeling from you tonight that you fan win this competition.


2. Allison Iraheta, “Someone Who’ll Watch Over Me”

What’s it like being the only girl left? It’s scary being around those for guys? Really? I’m kidding.

Yesterday she celebrated her 17th birthday.

Jamie: “Sixteen, she is leaps and bound ahead of her time.”

She’s too young to have a boyfriend, she tells the camera, then seems to get embarrassed and says she shouldn’t say that.

Jamie says to think about how much love flows from her family.


Her raspy voice does wonders for this, updating it all on its own. That was great.


Randy: You come out looking like Brittany Murphy … you sing like Pink but with like 9,000 more octaves. … That was the bomb and you did it in your own kinda rough kinda gruff style and I loved it.

Kara: I was starting to think you did need someone to watch over you. … But I ain’t nervous for you any more. You converted some new fans tonight. You are not just a rock chick. … That was a deep, motional way-beyond-your-years rendition and if that doesn’t land you in the finals I don’t know what would.

Paula: I’ve been waiting so long for you to perform a ballad. … It had an innocent sensitivity that was both alluring and tender. I’m really proud of you.

Simon: Do you think you can win this competition at this stage?

Allison: I think I can, I think all of us have that chance right now.

Simon: I ask the question because I don’t feel that belief in you still. … Maybe you’ve just been overshadowed by some of the personalities at the moment. I have a horrible feeling you could be in trouble tonight.

What? Why does he bring such gloom!

Ryan asks Simon if he was basing that on her performance or lack of confidence …?

Simon: I didn’t feel that in terms of commitment or belief that was a 10. .. felt like a 7 out of 10.

Kara to Simon: I love you, but you are crazy.


3. Matt Giraud, “My Funny Valentine”

Matt is “stoked” about this week. He studied jazz. He got a B. “It’s part of my life.”

Jamie: “It’s a big song, so within each part of the song that’s got to be some (hand motion).”

They were done filming and Jamie had no comments. But then he pulled Matt back in.

I say change the key to the song. He wants it in his “full voice.”

What I’m still waiting for is for someone to make this fresh and current and not just a cover.

It was all right. I still think he’s the one in trouble.


Randy: That was probably one of the hardest songs to sing ever … For me it was just a little bit pitchy. … It didn’t all quite come together for me. I’d give it like a 6 out of 10.

Kara: Competition is so stiff tonight, you really have to be the leader of the pack to establish yourself. … I didn’t feel you were emotionally connected to it and that’s what I was missing.

Paula: I love what you did with the song and I love what you did with the advice from Jamie in lowering the key. I felt the emotional connection.

Simon: I am going to have to disagree … with Randy. For me, it was the only believable, authentic song I’ve heard tonight. I can tell that you love the music and I heard some almost Nat King Cole kind of phrasing there. I thought you were absolutely brilliant.

I think he’s just being witchy about Kara.


4. Danny Gokey, “Come Rain or Come Shine”

Danny: “I’m not changing it up much” (what a shock) “I’m just giving it a bluesy feel.”


Jamie talks about how close director Michael Mann would get to him, in his personal space. He does it to Danny to get some kind of pure moment.

He gets “all up in your grill.” “Your breath is fresh!”

Ha!

He looks good in that suit.


Decent song and he gets into it, but this isn’t the kind of song I would think he would have on his CD. This is the most disappointing night of music to me. At least last week for disco some of the contestants mixed it up – Kris, for one. So it was less disco than a pop song you could hear on the radio.

Randy: once again it all sounds like it’s ballad tonight. I’m worried about the tempo … you are the only one I’ve heard so far tonight who could actually have an album of songs like that and win. … forget all this stuff about the connection, this is a singing competition and you can sing.

Kara: What I’ve been missing from you all season is that Rat Pack swagger and you had swag tonight. The end of that performance was the most creative you’ve ever been with a melody.

Paula: Stellar. Stellar, stellar performance. The best thing about you, Danny, is I can tell you can see the finish line right in front of you.

Simon: What Kara said is 100 percent right. What you had tonight was a swagger and confidence. … I felt tonight you came out to prove a point. Not only did you prove a point with your vocals which were the best I’ve heard in weeks. … Special thank you to Jamie Fox (for what he brought out in all the contestants, but especially Danny). It was incredible.

5. Adam Lambert, “Feeling Good”

I think this Saturday Night Fever suit might’ve been better for last week.

He’s doing a rock edge

The way he sung that song right now, he’s going to knock everybody’s head off.

Absolutely incredible man. You don’t care who I am at all.

(But he closed his eyes.

Jamie says Adam took him up, took him down.

Jamie: “I’m crying. He can sing with the best of them. And he’s going to be great.”


THIS is what I was waiting for – someone to take a standard I’ve heard covered 100 times (including by Michael Buble) and doing something different. I’m not saying it’s his arrangement, but it’s a good one to choose.

Wooo – long note on Feeliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin good.

Wowsa.


Randy: I’ll say it again … it was a little theatrical and a little too Broadway for me, but you are in the zone consistently dude.

Kara: My mouth drops open every time you perform. … Is he really doing that? Shocking. You’re shocking in a good way. Confusing and shocking and sleazy and superb and way over the top but I don’t know, I like you.

Paula: I get it. Words cannot describe. You make me feel better than good. With every performance I see it’s like watching the Olympics and you’re our Michael Phelps.

Simon: I love Randy saying that you’re too theatrical it’s like complaining that a cow moos too much. … What I get from you is you want to win.

(He even mistakenly calls someone else Adam – Danny?)

Simon: Best entrance we’ve had all year.

He said Ryan is no longer allowed to use the stairs.

You Might Be Rich

“You Might Be Rich” is the Dateline NBC show that finds unclaimed money and returns it to the rightful owners. “You Might Be Rich” is a Dateline NBC segment where that first aired last August, helping return almost $2 million lost dollars to average Americans. In the new rendition of the segment NBC News reporter Tiki Barber and his team, which includes NBC News’ Peter Alexander, and MSNBC’s Tamron Hall, find unclaimed property that is waiting in the state treasuries to be returned to the rightful owners. Almost $5 million was returned to over a dozen individuals by Barber and his team. In one particular case a former Pennsylvanian, who moved to Germany, was tracked down by the NBC news team, and given over a half a million dollars from an inheritance he was unaware he ever had. The story gets even better; when Dateline finally tracked him down they discovered he was homeless. Another man had a million dollars that was waiting to be collected in the Illinois State Treasurer, according to dateline.msnbc.com. You Might Be Rich, will air in two, hour specials Sunday, April 26 at 7:00 p.m. ET, and Sunday, May 3 at 7:00 p.m. ET. The May 3 show will take place live from outside Rockefeller Center, surprising one family that is completely unaware that they are entitled to unclaimed money.

NFL Draft: Mitchell Makes His Point

A 4-8 season by the Bobcats didn't help. Neither did the fact that he was a snubbed during the Combine selection process. So Ohio University safety Michael Mitchell knew that he had to make a statement at his Pro Day back on March 12. "I had decided I was going to leave no doubt that I'm going to be one of the biggest, fastest safeties on the market," the 6-foot-1, 220-pound defensive back told Scout.com. "I looked at the day as, 'finally here's my chance.' I just wanted to get in a room with guys like William Moore, Mike Hamlin and Louis Delmas and compete with those guys. But since I didn't get to do that, my Pro Day was my chance to show that I could."Mitchell put forth a compelling case to the NFL scouts and coaches who gathered to watch the school's top athletes. He reportedly ran a 4.43-second 40-time on his first attempt and followed that up with a 4.49-second time—even though he pulled up a bit at the 35-yard mark due to tweaking his hamstring. Now remember, that's a sub-4.5 time in the 40-yard dash run by an athlete who weighs in at 220-pounds.As a result of that speed, Michael Mitchell doesn't just tackle opponents, he clobbers them. Watch his highlight reels and you'll see that players' legs fly out when this guy puts a hit on them. He made 62 tackles during his senior year, forced a pair of fumbles and picked-off three passes. "It's so weird that I've been flying under the radar, and at times it's been frustrating," he said. "I've been playing well, I've never been in trouble, I truly believe I'm a good person with a good heart. "If you ask people about Mike Mitchell, they'll tell you he's a hard worker and a great leader. He's a guy who's going to give 110 percent every time he steps on the field whether it be a workout or anything regarding football, he's always putting his best foot forward. And I'm definitely proud of that. Mitchell told Scout.com that the Cleveland Browns, Indianapolis Colts, Houston Texans and Detroit Lions all spent some time talking with him at his Pro Day. He's also worked out for the Chicago Bears and the Cincinnati Bengals. And he's had official visits with the Colts, Browns, the Oakland Raiders and the Green Bay Packers. As he's made the rounds with NFL teams, he's finally hearing that coaches and scouts have noticed that he's worthy of getting his shot at playing in the NFL. "I keep hearing that they really like my size and my athletic ability," Mitchell said. "I think the thing that shocked a lot of people is my footwork. But I played corner all my life, and then when I got to college my coaches saw my potential to play safety, so he moved me to free safety. But as you watch film, you can tell I kind of like to hit people a little bit, so he moved me to strong safety."Team officials also seem to be attracted to some of Mitchell's intangibles as they've learned more about him."They've told me that they really like the leadership and emotion I bring to the game," he said. "I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way, but I truly believe there isn't another player that brings it like I bring it, every play, every practice, every game. Michael Mitchell is ready for the NFL. And one thing's for sure—he's no longer flying under the radar.

Home Improvement

We are living in my parents in law's house right now. Their house is a duplex style. They occupy the other side of the house and we just occupied the other half of the house. We did some home improvement on our side by repainting it and rearranging it. First we remove all the stuff that are in our living room. We cleaned the wall and ceiling to be painted. The next day we start painting already and it felt good seeing our living room looks new again. Even though we are still on the process of turning it into a nice and comfortable living room, I felt that it will turn out the way I like and it did. I love my living room and I love being there. Of course we can't do it without the tips on how to do it especially in choosing the best color and the best design we could get. For more tips visit Home Improvement Blog now.

Retirement

NFL fanatic here's the latest news feed in the world of NFL. Cris Collinsworth will succeed John Madden as the analyst in the NBC broadcast booth for the network's Sunday night NFL game telecasts, NBC executive Dick Ebersol announced during a conference call with reporters today.

Madden announced his retirement from broadcasting earlier today, rejecting an offer made Wednesday by Ebersol to work the network's September and November games next season and take October and December off.

Collinsworth had been on the NBC studio show.

"John's successor will be Cris Collinsworth," Ebersol, the chairman of NBC Sports, said during the conference call. "... Cris has always given us the luxury of having the two best broadcasters."

Dreams

Dreams are really weird sometimes. It could be good or bad. An advantage or disadvantage. I wonder if really dreams do come true. I use to dream bad things and terrible nightmares that are almost true and always find myself crying. Some people say that dreams are opposite. I don't believe that. Some will say that dreams are pre requisite of a certain incident that is about to happen. Sometimes I do believe about that but we all know that God can only predict what to happen in the future and to each and everyone of us.
