American Idol Fan — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 02:00:14 +0000

Who got voted off American Idol 4-1-09? After last night’s American Idol Top Downloads night of Idol performances, American Idol fans are anxious to know who got voted off tonight on American Idol? We’re LIVE blogging the results show as it happens, bringing Idol fans the breakdown of everything that happened during the American Idol results show. The Idol judges weren’t too impressed with several of last night’s Idol performances, and we couldn’t agree more with their reviews and criticisms of song choice and outfits. Remember Randy Jackson’s reaction to Allison Iraheta’s outfit saying, “What are you wearing?!” Hopefully you voted for your favorite American Idol after last night’s show ended, and tonight’s results will be very interesting. Idol predictions all over the net say that Megan Joy will be voted off tonight, but after watching Scott MacIntyre perform his best attempt at “Just The Way You Are”, both Megan and Scott are predicted to be in the Bottom 3 tonight. Will the judges use their save “veto vote” tonight for the Idol contestant with the lowest number of votes? Who got voted eliminated from American Idol tonight?

Ryan Seacrest said “over 36 million votes” came in after last night’s Idol performances by the Top 9. Randy Jackson says the Idol contestants picked the wrong songs and that maybe the genre of Top Downloads was too big. Adam Lambert gets special mention by Ryan Seacrest and Paula Abdul. Asked who he thinks should be worried of being voted off, Simon Cowell says Megan, Anoop and Scott were the three on his list.

The Top 9 Finalists contestants performed Journey’s hit song “Don’t Stop Believin” as a group performance, and it sounded pretty darn good! As I expected, Adam Lambert and Danny Gokey hit the high notes with spectacular precision!

The Top 9 Ford Video was shown and a pre-taped video of the “typical Idol week” with photo shoots, rehearsals and Idol Mania fans going wild for their favorite Idol contestants.

The Results are in! Who is safe? Who are in the bottom 3?

Past American Idol winner, David Cook, takes the stage to sing “Come Back To Me“. I am definitely going to download David Cook’s song as soon as American Idol is over! That performance was HOT and the audience loved it too! David Cook said his tour is being extended and I sure hope he’s coming to our town! David Cook was then presented with a plaque signifying his self-titled David Cook album going Platinum! Congratulations to David on his accomplishments thus far and those yet to come! Watch Video of David Cook singing “Come Back To Me” on American Idol.

Here come the Results!

Bottom Three American Idol Performers:

Megan Joy (as expected and predicted)

Allison Iraheta (I’m not too surprised)

Anoop Desai (I really thought it would be Scott!)

Lady GaGa takes the stage to sing “Poker Face“. I must admit to not being very familiar with Lady Gaga’s music, but she can definitely play that piano. The American Idol audience and judges loved Lady GaGa’s performance, giving her a standing ovation. Lady GaGa fans can download “Poker Face” on iTunes. Watch Video of Lady GaGa singing “Poker Face” on American Idol.

American Idol Host, Ryan Seacrest, asked Simon Cowell which of the Bottom 3 contestants were worth saving with a veto vote and Simon said “1″. Anoop Desai is safe and sent back to sit with the other Idol contestants. Ryan Seacrest asked Simon if there was a chance of saving Megan Joy with a veto vote and Simon “not a chance”. Ouch! That was pretty cut-throat Simon!

Megan Joy was voted off and eliminated from American Idol Season 8. Good luck to you Megan! Watch Video of Megan Joy get voted off.

Breakdown list of the guys and girls who are safe:

Danny Gokey is Safe

Lil Rounds is Safe

Anoop Desai is Safe

Matt Giraud is Safe

Scott MacIntyre is Safe

Kris Allen is Safe

Allison Iraheta is Safe

Adam Lambert is Safe

What Hurts The Most Lyrics – Danny Gokey American Idol Top Downloads 3/31/09

American Idol Fan — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 02:27:50 +0000

Danny Gokey sang “What Hurts The Most” by Rascal Flatts tonight on American Idol’s “Top Downloads/iTunes Downloads” show.

Here are the “What Hurts The Most” Lyrics and Video to the song.

What Hurts The Most Lyrics:

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don’t bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I’m not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I’m ok
But that’s not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin’ to do

It’s hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I’m doin’ It
It’s hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I’m alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin’ with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been

And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

Not seeing that loving you
That’s what I was trying to do

American Idol 3/31/09 Top Downloads iTunes Recap LIVE Review-American Idol Fan Site

American Idol Fan — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 01:44:14 +0000

American Idol 3-31-09 Top Downloads iTunes Recap and LIVE Review of American Idol Top 9 performances March 31, 2009. The Top 9 American Idol Finalists were allowed to choose ANY song they wanted to perform, as long as the song is a “top download” on iTunes.

First up is Anoop Desai singing “Caught Up” by Usher. Idol Judge Randy Jackson didn’t feel the song was right for Anoop, but said the vocals were good. Kara DioGuardi didn’t like the performance one bit. Paula Abdul said Anoop needs to work on showmanship, and didn’t agree with the song choice either. Simon Cowell said Anoop’s performance “was a complete and utter mess” and it gave Simon a headache. We didn’t care much for Anoop’s performance either, but we’ll see what happens with the votes.

Next up is Megan Joy singing “Turn The Lights Down Low” by Bob Marley. Kara DioGuardi said the song choice was wrong, wrong, wrong and that Megan’s vocal registry “became irritating”. Paula Abdul said she didn’t like it either. Simon Cowell said the song choice was “indulgent and boring”, “no one would like that song”. Randy Jackson said the song choice and performance was “like watching paint dry”. Ouch! I couldn’t agree more with the judges negative review of Megan’s song choice and performance.

Danny Gokey then took the Idol stage singing “What Hurts The Most” by Rascal Flatts. Paula Abdul said “this is where you thrive”. Simon Cowell said “it was the best performance so far”. Randy Jackson said “tonight’s show starts right here”, but Danny needs to “keep the swagger” and it was a “very nice” performance. Kara DioGuardi said “you moved everyone in this room emotionally, and it’s hard to do”.

Allison Iraheta takes the stage singing “Don’t Speak” by No Doubt, and Allison is playing the guitar too. Randy Jackson said Allison was a “little ahead of the beat” but mostly wondered “What are you wearing?!” and didn’t like Allison’s outfit at all. Kara DioGuardi said the outfit Allison is wearing was a distraction, but the song performance was good. Paula Abdul said the delivery of the song was “masterful” and is headed toward being one of the top finalists. Simon Cowell also didn’t like the outfit Allison was wearing, saying it was like “dressing up to be a pop star” and that Allison “shouted the song”.

Scott MacIntyre took the Idol stage singing “Just The Way You Are” by Billy Joel, with just Scott and the piano, in hopes of escaping the bottom 3 this week. Kara DioGuardi said it was a “moving performance” and she “loves the new look”. Paula Abdul said she is “most proud” of Scott, and liked how the performance was “stripped down” and that he did a great job. Simon Cowell said Scott did a great job, and Randy Jackson said “it was one of the best of the night”. We were surprised by the judges reviews of Scott’s performance, and we couldn’t wait for it to be over.

Next up is Matt Giraud singing “You Found Me” by The Fray. Paula Abdul said Matt “aborted the things we love most about you”, and the song “became more of a sound-alike”, and it wasn’t a great performance. Simon said it sounded “uptight” and “uncomfortable”. Randy Jackson said it was “the wrong song for you”. Kara DioGuardi said Matt is a “talented guy and doesn’t deserve to go home”.

Lil Rounds takes the stage to sing “I Surrender” by Celine Dion. Randy Jackson said she did a great job with the song but was initially very worried about the song choice. Kara DioGuardi said “we need to see more of this”. Paula Abdul said it was a great performance, but Simon Cowell said it was like a “wedding”, old-fashioned and boring, adding that Lil needs to keep current and sing like she did early into the competition.

Adam Lambert changes things up with “Play That Funky Music” by Wild Cherry. Paula Abdul called Adam a “true genius” with that performance. Simon Cowell said it “was original” and Adam obviously had fun. Randy Jackson said Adam is “in the star zone”. Kara DioGuardi said she “can’t wait to get to the studio to see what Adam would do next” each week.

The last performance of the night is by Kris Allen, who takes the stage to sing “Ain’t No Sunshine” by Will Young. Randy Jackson said it was “definitely one of the best performances of the night”. Kara DioGuardi said “that is artistry!” Paula Abdul said it was Kris’ best performance to date. Simon agreed with Paula saying the performance was one of the best of the night and it was Kris’ best performance so far.

What do you think of all the Idol contestant Top iTunes Downloads performances? Who gets your vote? Who will be on the Bottom 3 on Wednesday night’s American Idol? Make your prediction of who will be voted off American Idol during the results show Wednesday, April 1.

Smokey Robinson Joss Stone “You’re The One For Me” Lyrics and Video

American Idol Fan — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 15:49:36 +0000

Just like you, I’ve been searching the net for the “You’re The One For Me” lyrics from Smokey Robinson and Joss Stone’s appearance on American Idol Motown results show Thursday, March 26. Since the “You’re The One For Me” lyrics can’t seem to be found anywhere online quite yet, I took the time to listen to “You’re The One For Me” a hundred times or more, writing down the song lyrics as the song played.

There were two lines in the lyrics to “You’re The One For Me”, where Smokey started singing in the duet with Joss Stone, that I had trouble figuring out. I’m once again posting the “You’re The One For Me” YouTube video with the lyrics I’ve written down. UPDATE: The two questionable lyric lines have been cleared up, and the complete/correct lyrics are found below.

Listen to Smokey Robinson and Joss Stone sing “You’re The One For Me”, and if anyone can decipher the two questionable lines in the lyrics, please leave a comment and I will edit the song lyrics accordingly. Don’t forget to download “You’re The One For Me” by Smokey Robinson, and you can choose to download the song with just Smokey singing, or you can download the duet performance with Joss Stone. The two lyric lines in question are highlighted in bold and italics.

“You’re The One For Me” Lyrics,
by Smokey Robinson, featuring Joss Stone

The first time I laid eyes on you
I had an instant suspicion
To be with you would become
My life’s ambition.

I knew right away, from the very first day
That somewhere down the line
I’d wake up to see you lying right next to me,
You’d be mine, all mine, all mine.

Chorus:
You’re the one for me, baby
Yeah, you’re the one baby
You’re the one for me
Anyone can see baby, yeah
You’re the one baby, you’re the one for me.

Opportunity comes knockin’
in the form of somebody new, but I don’t answer
‘Cause the door to my heart is only open to you.
Temptation around, staring me down, right in my face…
But, nobody could ever take you’re place
No one could fill your space.

Chorus:
You’re the one for me, baby
Yeah, you’re the one baby
You’re the one for me, well, well, well
Anyone can see baby, yeah
You’re the one baby, you’re the one for me.

Nobody could ever make me feel good
Like you do, ooh ooh
Nobody, but nobody, could ever thrill me so oh
I’ve got my mind made up about you
And I know, I know, it’s you, it’s you.

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, you’re the one
Oh yeah, you’re the one now
Anyone can see baby, yeah
You’re the one baby, you’re the one for me.

Baby you’re the one
You’re the one
You’re the one
ooh ooh ooh ooh yes, mm mm.

Thanks and enjoy!

American Idol Fan — Sat, 28 Mar 2009 23:55:24 +0000

Top 9 Theme Spoiler! Ryan Seacrest announced on his radio show the American Idol theme for the Top 9 Idol contestants will be “TOP DOWNLOADS“. On Tuesday night, March 31, 2009 the Top 9 American Idol finalists will apparently be singing songs from the iTunes downloads/iTunes Top 100 downloads for song choice.

Top Downloads on iTunes, eh? Well, I sure hope Megan Joy carefully considers the variety of songs included in the Top 100 downloads when deciding what song she’ll sing, because her last performance was one of the worst thus far.

What songs from the Top Downloads list from iTunes would you recommend for American Idol’s Top 9 Finalists? Make your suggestions and recommendations of song choice for your favorite American Idol Season 8 contestant in the comments section below.

Joss Stone Smokey Robinson You’re The One For Me Video American Idol

American Idol Fan — Sat, 28 Mar 2009 16:33:53 +0000

Joss Stone and Smokey Robinson sang “You’re The One For Me” on the American Idol Motown results show on Thursday, March 26th and we’ve got the YouTube Video! Smokey Robinson and Joss Stone debuted “You’re The One For Me” from Smokey’s album entitled, “Time Flies When You’re Having Fun”, tentatively scheduled for release in May 2009.

Watching 69-year-old Smokey Robinson sing a love song to soon-to-be 22-year-old Joss Stone (born Jocelyn Eve Stoker on April 11, 1987) seemed a bit strange to some Idol viewers, but I thought the performance was beautiful. Maybe some viewers didn’t like the performance because they lack chemistry, but Smokey’s voice is still amazingly smooth and beautiful to listen to, with or without Joss Stone or other female singers Smokey has performed with.

A bit about Smokey Robinson’s biography: Smokey Robinson, born William “Smokey” Robinson, Jr. on February 19, 1940, is one of the primary key figures associated with Motown Records, second only to the company’s founder, Berry Gordy. Smokey Robinson earned the title “King of Motown” due to his countless hit songs and contribution to the Motown record label. You can read more about Smokey Robinson and his sparkling green eyes on the Smokey Robinson biography profile page on Wiki.

English soul singer Joss Stone came to fame in late 2003 with her multi-platinum debut album, “The Soul Sessions“. Joss Stone songs and albums have sold over ten million copies worldwide, winning one Grammy Award and two BRIT Awards. In 2005, Stone and Melissa Ethridge did an incredible tribute to Janis Joplin during the 2005 Grammy Awards singing “Piece of My Heart” that brought the house down, and was considered to be one the highlights of the Awards show that year.

Here’s the Joss Stone and Smokey Robinson YouTube video of “You’re The One For Me” onÂ American Idol March 26.

What did you think of Joss Stone and Smokey Robinson’s performance on American Idol? Who is your favorite American Idol contestant on Season 8?
