<b>Caleb Johnson – Stay With Me (By Faces)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Another great opening performance, after Majesty open the girls group
with great and now Caleb open the guys group with great too. He picked a right
song choice for him so he can show his personality and also show range of his
voice. Strong performance right in the beginning of the show.</div>

<b>C.J. Harris – Shelter (By Ray LaMontagne)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Nice performance by C.J…… The song choice is not a big song, but C.J
deliver the song with nice, I don’t know this performance is strong enough till
the end because I want to see wow factor, yes there is wow moment but no so much and intense. This performance
is sweet and nice, it safe performance for him..</div>

<b>Emmanuel Zidor – Best of My Love (By Emotions)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
I really believe that he can perform really great in the live show and I
have high expectation with him, but he just did okay. I hope he pick a better
song choice. So it was a disappointment for me because I already put high
expectation to him but he just did okay. I hope he through to another round
because his voice is insane!!.....</div>

<b>Sam Woolf – Babylon (By David Gray)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
I love his performance, he picked a right song choice and he sang with
nice. But my problem with him is there is insecurity in his eyes, he likes
doubt himself or maybe nervous, in many moments the eyes like thinking
something. He needs to let it go more and definitely confidence more, I do
believe this kid will be more great in the next performance</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<b>George Lovett – Grenade (By Bruno Mars)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
He definitely can sing and it show too in this performance, but I don’t
like his interpretation with the song and he did over the top with the song
also at the end the emotion a little bit out of control for me and very intense
and became tired to heard his performance. Unfortunately because he can sing
but he didn’t deliver the song so well.</div>

<b>Dexter Roberts – This Ole Boy (By Craig Moran)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
For me it just okay performance, very safe performance and I don’t get
the peak moment with this performance, but it was nice and safe but overall for
me just okay performance and a little bit forgettable performance for me…….</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<b>Alex Preston – Volcano (By Damien Rice)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
This guy is my favorite since the audition and Thanks GOD he made it to
the top 10 guys and also delivered a strong performance. For me Alex is similar
to Sam, but the difference between them is Alex have more confidence than Sam.
I always like Alex performance, it never over the top, so artistry and so
strong. I really believe with this guy, hope he make it to the next round.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<b>Malcolm Allen – Comin’ Where I’m From (By Anthony Hamilton)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
I don’t understand why he picked this song because for me it’s a weird
song choice because this song can not give any advantage for him. I know there
is a reason for him to pick this song, but c’mon remember this is the
competition and every contestant need to be shine in every performance. This
song didn’t show his range and also didn’t show a great voice of him. It’s flat
performance, bit boring, and definitely forgettable performance.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<b>Ben Briley – Soul Shine (By The Almman Brothers Band)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
It’s weird when I knew that Ben made it to the top 10 because he is the
last guy to fill the spot in the top 15 because the judges can not decide, but
in the decision to the top 10 the judges seems so easy to put him through,
weird moment…. But back to Ben performance, he did a pretty good job with his
performance because if he performed bad, I will write rude comment in here
hahaha…. The song that he choice is enough to show what he capability in sing
and play instrument and all of that is the reason people will vote for him. But
please if he make it to another round, please give him make over, cut his hair
and shave all the beard in his face because Ben outside look so awful for me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<b>Spencer Lloyd – Love Don’t Die (By The Fray)</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
I have a high expectation to him, he didn’t disappoint me, but my expectation
is bigger than this performance. I expect like performance “Say Something” in
Hollywood Weeks. Overall this performance is good performance, I like this
performance, I think Spencer did a good job to close the show. But the issue
that I got with this performance is stiffness in the act stage, in some moment
Spencer like don’t know what he want to do in the stage just go all over the
place but without good cause so just a distraction to be watched. But I really
believe he will move to the next round….</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
After Kenzie Hall and Austin Wolf, my another favorite contestant since
the audition must go home and he is Casey Thrasher. I like him a lot and arggghh
it’s make me upset because why not him to through in to the top 10. Another
result that I must accept and also we say goodbye to Ethan Harris, Maurice
Townsend, Briston Maroney and Jordan Brisbane. Another disappointment is for
Briston Maroney, I like him since Hollywood Weeks because I think he different
and so quirky and it will be good if he in the top 10 because will give more
variety in the guys group, but the fate he must go home. Hopefully he back next
year with Kenzie, Austin and Casey.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Overall for me Top 10 Guys is a painful to watch and heard because not so
many memorable performance. The Top 10 Girls for me is better than The Top 10
Guys….. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
So here it is the list 1 to 10 of my favorite performances of the Top 10

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Disappointed performance, but have strong Hollywood Weeks and big
potential to be great….</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
7. Emmanuel Zidor</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
But the 5 guys that I really want to see to make it through are <b>Caleb Johnson, Alex
Preston, Spencer Lloyd, Sam Woolf and Emmanuel Zidor</b>….. The reason I pick
Emmanuel Zidor is the same reason why I want Bria Anai to make it through,
because Emmanuel has a great voice and I think he is the best voice in the guys
group, so I hope Emmanuel have a spot to make it through.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
After watch Top 10 Guys performance, I will be so happy if all the
wildcard position give it to the girls hahahaha…..</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
So let see the result, what will happen…..</div>

She really brings the house down right from the beginning of the show.
The right song choice for her, she really enjoy in the stage, not really over

A little bit nervous in the beginning, but goes to the end, she in the
zone and she nail it. When she stop sang, I don’t want to see her stop singing
because she really great and I want more. Love this performance, really solid
and I got goose bumps all over my body. Great performance!!!...</div>

When she start to sing, in my mind “Oh My GOD, the coach really right,
the eyes so blank like fear of something and stiffness also in her” but after
she felt the song she really in the zone and another goose bumps is coming in
all over my body. Still love this performance, great job Briana….</div>

Nice performance from her….. she start with really high intention and she
hold it till the end and push a little bit more in the end, this performance
just around one minutes and not make us tired but if this performance about around
three minutes, I will stop her , because so tired to heard performance like
this, but thanks to regulation that this only around one minutes performance so
what Jena did is enough. Still solid and nice performance.</div>

I hope she can pick a better song choice because I’m not really like
about the song choice. This girl definitely can sing and the range of her voice
is insane. In this performance she show the range not in a good way, also out
of control in everywhere such as in her voice, in her body languages and like
Harry’s said shouting for reach the high notes. I don’t like her performance,
but I like her in previous performance and what potential that she can bring to
the show. I’m support her, but I dislike this performance.</div>

I don’t like her song choice and when she start sing, I was think that
maybe I was wrong because it sounds good, but goes to the chorus and to end, it’s
all about karaoke performance. I like her personality and I think she is Mrs.
Personality and people will remember of her because the personality it so
massive in this performance and also in the stage American idol and also the
accident of the shoe will be so memorable hahahaha but for singing competition,
I’m so sorry she really hard to make it to another round.</div>

The performance…. It’s not working for me. The emotion is so flat, I don’t
get the peak moment, I don’t connect with her from the beginning till the end,
It’s so flat, it’s so gloomy, I don’t like it and for me it so forgettable.
Sorry….. but I do like her voice, but hate this performance.</div>

She has a good voice, I remember in the Hollywood weeks how great she is,
but in this performance I don’t get it…. Yes, she looks like a rock chic but
why you want to be looks like a rock girl if that is not the strength of you.
She still deliver a great voice in this performance, but I don’t get it of the
performance. Just okay performance for me…..</div>

I totally agree with Jennifer, she has a simplicity that can make a song
become special and she did with “A Team” in Hollywood Weeks and she did again
with “All Of Me” right now. But my question is if she did this kind of
performance over and over again, do we get bored? Or still excited? That’s my big
question. Not the strongest performance of the night but still have a bright
chance to make it through another round.</div>

I love her quirky personality hahaha…. And also I like her voice because
she has a big voice and she prove in this performance that she can sing and her
voice is stunning awesome. This girls is one to beat and I believe she deserve
a spot in another round.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
That’s all my opinion about Top 10 girls performance….</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
In the other side, I’m so upset because the regulation of this year. What
a stupid regulation, you bring 15 girls to live show but only 10 girls can sing
and other 5 girls must go home, stupid regulation!!!..... Just make it simple,
bring only 10 girls and 10 guys to the live show, so there is no top 30 but top
20. It so unfair regulation!!!!.........</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
And I become more upset because at the end of the show my favorite
contestant since the audition didn’t make it to the top 10 and they are Kenzie
Hall and Austin Wolf, Oh I more upset with the regulation!!!!!.....</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
But it is what it is, I must accept the result. For the girls group, I
don’t have favorite contestant again that I support from the beginning from the
audition. But after watched Top 10 Girls performance, my support will be goes
to Majesty Rose, Kristen O’Connor and Briana Oakley.</div>

<br />
<br />
Swift stays at the summit, with digital sales for "Never" dropping significantly, a contrast to the song's strong airplay gains. "Never" spends a second week at No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart with 307,000 downloads sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan, a 51% slide from its debut on the list last week with sales of 623,000, an opening-week sum that marked the best for a song by a woman in SoundScan history. In its first two weeks of digital availability, "Never" has sold 930,000 downloads.
<br />
<br />
Such a drop-off in second-week digital sales is typical for titles that make monstrous first-week splashes. Even with its decline, "Never" becomes one of just five songs this year to sell more than 300,000 downloads in multiple weeks. Fun.'s "We Are Young" (featuring Janelle Monae) tallied seven such weeks; Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" (featuring Kimbra), six; and, LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It" and Maroon 5's "Payphone" (featuring Wiz Khalifa), two each.
<br />
<br />

<br />
Radio airplay, meanwhile, continues to swell for "Never," which wins the Hot 100's top Airplay Gainer ribbon, lifting 14-13 in its third week on the Radio Songs chart (67 million all-format audience impressions, up 30%, according to Nielsen BDS). The song is the greatest gainer on Pop Songs (18-16, up 27%) and Adult Pop Songs (21-18, up 32%), although it drops 13-19 on Country Songs (down 30%). Clear Channel Media and Entertainment-owned stations, a majority of them country-formatted, aided the song's radio debut with intense airplay on Aug. 6-7; following the specialty spins, plays on those country stations largely regressed, spurring the song's slip on Country Songs.
<br />
<br />
"Never," the lead single from Swift's fourth studio album, "Red," due Oct. 22 on Big Machine Records, has not yet been made available to streaming services that also contribute to the Hot 100's data pool. Thus, it does not yet rank on the On-Demand Songs streaming chart.
<br />
<br />
Although sales for "Never" more than halve, the song still claims the Hot 100's top spot over Flo Rida's former one-week No. 1 "Whistle." ("Never" decreases by 41% on overall Hot 100 points, while "Whistle" slides by only 2%). "Whistle" holds at No. 2, climbing 8-5 on Radio Songs (81 million, up 10%). It falls 2-3 on Digital Songs (180,000, down 10%), although it passes 2 million in sales to-date. On On-Demand Songs, it rises 3-2 (771,000 on-demand streams, down less than 1%, according to BDS).
<br />
<br />
Ellie Goulding's "Lights" (3-3) makes it a static top three on the Hot 100, while Maroon 5's "One More Night" charges 9-4 with the chart's top Digital Gainer award for a third consecutive week. The song jumps 4-2 on Digital Songs (195,000, up 26%), 25-16 on Radio Songs (50 million, up 25%) and 28-19 on On-Demand Songs (415,000, up 20%).
<br />
<br />
Fun.'s "Some Nights" jumps 6-5 on the Hot 100 with gains on Radio Songs (19-14; 52 million, up 14%) and On-Demand Songs (5-4; 739,000, up 6%). On Digital Songs, it drops 3-4 ( 169,000, down 7%).
<br />
<br />
Carly Rae Jepsen's former nine-week Hot 100 No. 1 "Call Me Maybe" drops 4-6; Katy Perry's No. 2-peaking "Wide Awake" falls 5-7; and, Maroon 5's fellow No. 2-peaking "Payphone" descends 7-8.
<br />
<br />
Jepsen concurrently adds her second Hot 100 top 10 in as many chart appearances, as "Good Time," with Owl City, climbs 13-9 with top Streaming Gainer honors. The duet bounds 16-10 on On-Demand Songs (509,000, up 19%), while pushing 8-5 on Digital Songs (144,000, up 13%) and 17-15 on Radio Songs (51 million, up 10%). Its latest sales frame pushes it past 1 million downloads sold to-date.
<br />
<br />
Jepsen and Owl City (aka, Adam Young) each notch their second Hot 100 top 10s. With "Good Time" following "Maybe," Jepsen is the first woman to send her first two entries as a lead act on the chart to the top 10 since Ke$ha arrived with the nine-week No. 1 "TiK ToK" and the No. 7 hit "Blah Blah Blah" (featuring 3OH!3) in 2009-10. Including featured billings, Jepsen joins Sia, whose first two Hot 100 appearances this year, both in guest roles, have reached the top 10. Flo Rida's "Wild Ones" rose to No. 5 in May and David Guetta's "Titanium" peaked at No. 7 in July; Sia sings the chorus in each track.
<br />
<br />
Owl City returns to the Hot 100's top 10 after debut single "Fireflies" spent two weeks at No. 1 in November 2009.
<br />
<br />
Justin Bieber rounds out the Hot 100's top bracket, as "As Long as You Love Me" (featuring Big Sean) retreats 8-10. Although it declines by 9% in sales to 131,000 (holding at No. 6 on Digital Songs), the song again bullets at No. 9 on On-Demand Songs (595,000, up 7%) and lifts 18-17 on Radio Songs (50 million, up 8%).
<br />
<br />
Check Billboard.com tomorrow (Aug. 30), when all rankings, including the Hot 100 and On-Demand Songs in their entirety and Digital Songs and Radio Songs, will be refreshed, as they are each Thursday.

Colton really touched my heart with this performance. Nice opening performance. Love this kid so much and agree with Randy this kid can win this competition because week after week he give the best he can do and trying to give fresh performance. Still supporting on you, Colton. Go Colton!!!...<br />
<br />
<b>Skylar Laine - Gunpowder and Lead</b><br />
She comeback to the performance that I liked, but I don’t know I’m not jumping off my chair like I saw her performance in semi final (Top 12 Female). Skylar definitely nail the song with undenial great voice, she also again give her swagger in her performance, but I don’t know why I just missing something with this performance. If I looked just Skylar performance that was good and strong, but if I must compared to the other contestants in the top 9… this performance just okay and good performance. I’m afraid of her position and maybe she will be in the first time in the bottom three and the bad thing is she is going home.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Heejun Han - A Song For You</b><br />
WOW!!! speechless for Heejun because I didn’t expect that coming from Heejun. Beuatiful performance, huge comeback from Heejun and now everybody know how great Heejun. So… I hope Heejun kepp this great performance week after week in the later because he is in danger position, one bad performance can make Heejun go home because the competition is fierce and so tight. Good Luck Heejun<br />
<br />
<b>Hollie Cavanagh – Jesus Take The Wheel</b><br />
Nice performance by Hollie, much better than last week. I agree with Jennifer Lopez, I can felt the message that she want to deliver. Also I think this is one of the nice moments that Hollie have in the competition. She sang with not over thinking just goes with the emotion, very nice. But I’ve sick to see Hollie performance because every week she likes do the same thing, pick a big song from a diva example : TOP 13 from Whitney Houston, TOP 12 from Celine Dion, TOP 9 from Carrie Underwood also in the TOP 10 pick a big song with a ton of emotion in the song. I knew that she really like in this zone, but c’mon Hollie out of your comfort zone and give us something different maybe change the arrangement, give surprising improvement, or maybe give the unique of Hollie or show tons of personality in the song. C’mon Hollie, you can’t pick a big song with full of emotion every week. Also please not a song from a diva because big chances you compare to the original artist if you can’t give something different also you have a problem with the pitch issue, if sing a big song with pitch issue the overall performance will be just okay. I don’t want your journey end this fast, Hollie… Also I don’t want your journey end like Shannon because pick diva songs again and again. I hope her journey still alive and not end this week, but if she do the same thing next week probably she will going home next week. But I’m still believing in her, I know she can be great and I know she can more stronger more spectacular than this. C’mon Hollie!!!<br />
<br />
<b>Deandre Brackensick - Sometimes I Cry</b><br />
Big surprise came from Deandre. I never expect that he will be so great this week because I think he has a big chance to go home, but with this performance he will still continue the journey in American Idol for another week. If he goes home, it will be a shocking moment. The voice of him was so great, the falsetto is so beautiful, he’s really in the zone, he gave it all and the best performance by him so far in this competition. Beautiful performance, definitely can be the best performance in top 9. Amazing and so beautifull!!.. well done Deandre!.<br />
<br />
<b>Jessica Sanchez - Sweet Dream</b><br />
What I like about this girl is this girl so fearless, this girl gave a new arrangement for Beyonce song “Sweet Dream” and that was amazing. We knew that Jessica has a great voice and she already prove by sang “I Will Always Love You” and also last week performance. Jessica not afraid to get out from her comfort zone and sing a song who can’t be predict like Jessica did in TOP 12 and like in tonight performance. Great job, Jessica. Beautiful arrangement and still keep your position in the front runner in this competition.<br />
<br />
<b>Phillip Phillips - Still Rainin'</b><br />
Phillip is getting stronger and stronger week by week. This guy wants to win this competition. Also tonight outfit was nice and enough stylish for this gorgeous competition. This performance more strong than last week and if Phillip give a improvement week by week, he will in top three in my opinion and maybe can win this entire competition. Great performance, awesome voice, and cool swagger in this performance. Go Phillip!!!...<br />
<br />
<b>Joshua Ledet - Without You</b><br />
Joshua doesn’t want lose the spotlight tonight. Joshua is in the zone, but still surprise that he can nail the song from Mariah Carey because song from Mariah is so hard to sing. Shannon got eliminated because sing from Mariah song and just give okay performance, but Joshua sang the song with incredible awesome, he sang with great and also give tons of emotion in the song. I believe he will safe for another week and with this performance also he still keeps his position as a front runner in this competition. Going home? Will be crazy surprising result and all judges will safe him for sure…<br />
<br />
<b>Elise Testone - Whole Lotta Love</b><br />
Elise give an unbelievable performance. Who can expect that Elise will perform the rock song from Led Zeppelin? I think nobody. Elise likes Phillip, the performance by her is getting stronger week by week, OMG this girl is a dark horse in the competition. For all front runners watch out for the lady dark horse because Elise is in it to win it!!!....<br />
<br />
The best of the night?? it's so hard to decide because the judges give five times standing ovation, but for me the best of the night go to Deandre because very surprising performance and very nice performance, so strong performance in my opinion....<br />

<br />
TOP 9 performances were so amazing. Hard to pick who will go home…. I don’t have a clue who’s will out. But based on my analysis, I worry about Hollie because in the big chance that she will be in trouble and maybe in the danger to go home, but I have a confidence believe that if Hollie out the judges will safe her. Also I worry about Skylar position in the competition because she like Hollie need an injection to throw her to be have a great memorable unforgettable performance. I think the judges in the big chance will use their safe this week, but if Heejun out I don’t think the judges will safe him and for the rest there’s a chance that judges will safe them. For Deandre?? I don’t know, he so great this week, to bring him in the bottom three it’s so ridiculous, I hope he safe, but if he out of the competition 60% I think the judges will not safe him because the judges already give a second chance to him in the wildcard round, but inside my heart I believe Deandre will safe. I think the bottom three probably will be Skylar, Hollie and Heejun this is just my opinion hehehe…..Ardhie Hadiantohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14147880533880603187noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7194859746144838122.post-8217365573420042212012-03-22T23:00:00.000+07:002012-03-29T03:36:23.381+07:00American Idol Top 10 : Tribute To Billy Joel<b>Deandre Brackensick - Only The Good Die Young</b><br />
I think the genre like this is really suit for Deandre, but I don't know why I got bored when hear the performance by him goes to the end. In the beginning and till the middle, it still nice, but in theend part Deandre like doing nothing and just stay with nothing improvement. Just okay for me, but great song choice because the song is stuck in my head.<br />
<br />
<b>Erika Van Pelt - New York State of Mind</b><br />
I think this performance much better than last week, but for me "The Edge of Glory" performance is still the best performance by her. Overall was good, nice and strong vocal performance, but I think lack of moment. This performance was good, but not easy to enjoy this performance and a little bit forgettable or maybe Erika had a trouble to making moments in her performance because last three performance the moment was not so strong than the other contestants. It cause her to be a forgettable contestant in my opinion. The memorable performance by her just only "The Edge of Glory". Must hard work more for Erika.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<b>Joshua Ledet - She's Got A Way</b><br />
The superstar contestant in last week battle, but in Top 10 Joshua star a little bit blur. This performance not a strong performance by him, there was moments, but not really lot. The moment that I can remember when the choir came out and Joshua pull everything he can do in that part. Overall still strong performance and this guy still a real contender to win this year American Idol.<br />
<br />
<b>Skylar Laine - Shameless</b><br />
It was good, but I think Skylar didn't make any progression. After we saw her in the first live show when she gave an electric performance by jumping around like a crazy great singer, the performance by Skylar just good and never beat "Stay With Me" performance also feels same week after week. Definitely she nail every song that she sang and show her vocal ability, but c'mon Skylar pick a song can make you great and can make a memorable moment like Joshua and Jessica did. Skylar definitely can be the front runner in this competition, but I think so far she still in the middle of the group and it will affect bad to her if she keep doing like this in the competition and maybe she will left the competition immediately.<br />
<br />
<b>Elise Testone - Vienna</b><br />
She getting better week after week and she more strong week after week. Watch out Jessica. Joshua and the rest of the contestants because this lady can kick every butt contestants in this season. The best performance by her so far in the competition. One of the strongest performances of the night too. Two weeks in the row, awesome performances by Elise!!...<br />
<br />
<b>Phillip Phillips - Movin' Out (Anthony Song)</b><br />
Phillip also getting better week by week and if he keep give a progression, if he do that with consistent, watch out for Joshua and Jessica because Phillip can take the title too. It so pathetic when Phillip don't want take an advise from Tommie Hilfiger because I agree with that fashion stylish, Phillip need injection of superstar aura because Phillip looks on the stage like a poor guy trying to be a superstar, the style of Phillip so awful. C'mon Phillip take the advise, don't make American didn't vote you because your looks so awful and so poor, simple can be stylish too Phillip. Please be total package...<br />
<br />
<b>Hollie Cavanagh - Honesty</b><br />
The bad performance of the night in my opinion and worry for her because I don't want her to leave the competition because she great and she has a capability to win this competition. If I see her go home, It will be a saddest part of this season. I can't enjoy the whole performance by her in this night. Everything feels bad, feels wrong, when she started miss the note and pitchy, goes to the end not getting better. Agree to the judge a lot of think and make the performance so stiff. Awful performance and bad performance by her so far in this competition.<br />
<br />
<b>Heejun Han - My Life</b><br />
I love Heejun as personal, but the performance not really. Fun performance, but still not a strong performance. It quite interesting when he gave a twist in the beginning of his performance and very fun to watch and enjoy Heejun performance till the end. But I think he must take this competition more serious. He has a great voice and definitely can be an artist someday, but not ready yet and far behind from other competitor in this season. Heejun must explore more and find what artist that he wannabe, not just show the fun side, we already knows that Heejun is so funny person and now let the world know that you (Heejun) can sing with great too. Please Heejun give to the world amazing performance, please please, I'm begging you Heejun.... because if he didn't give a stunning performance next week, I really believe next week or two weeks later we must say goodbye to Heejun.<br />
<br />
<b>Jessica Sanchez - Everybody Has A Drean</b><br />
Jessica Sancez return with thirsty of the spotlight. After last week performance not really great, this week Jessica comeback to the top of the group. Overall this is one of the best performances by her in my opinion. She sang with great, the message really spot on and deliver with really well. Great performance... Well done<br />
<br />
<b>Colton Dixon - Piano Man</b><br />
He is the best performance in male group, but for the entire group the performance also strong and hard to pick the best one tonight. When Colton plays the piano in his performance, usually the performance will be great. Much better than last week and Colton close the show with amazing!!!.... beautiful performance, great job and well done... I think Colton more better be the artist like this than trying to be a rocker like last week, that just my opinion because when he sang "Piano Man" and "Fix You" both performances are great and both performances used piano also when he perform "Decode" he used Piano.<br />
<br />
So... who the best performance in top 10? I have four strong performance and they are Elise Testone, Phillip Phillips, Jessica Sanchez and Colton Dixon. Jessica take the TOP 13 throne with "I Will Always Love You", Joshua take the Top 11 throne with "When A Man Loves A Woman" and for TOP 10 I will give to Colton Dixon with "Piano Man"<br />

I love his voice so much, but very unfortunate the performance of him not so strong like he sang "I Know You Won't".<br />
<br />
If you didn't see the result show, I just want to share that the three guys in bottom three are Jeremy Rosado, Jermaine Jones and Joshua Ledet. What a surprising result to know Joshua in the bottom three, for me he one of the best performances of the night. Also I disagree with Jimmy, what are you worry about Joshua performance? that is no wrong in Joshua performance.<br />
<br />
In the group of girls, the bottom three of the night very same with my prediction and they are Erika Van Pelt, Shannon Magrane and Elise Testone. The result said that Elise Testone is the lowest number of vote in the girls group. Elise face to face with Jeremy in the danger position of leaving and the judges all agree to send home Jeremy and keep staying Elise in the competition.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
Did I blame the judges for the result? not really because not easy decision to choose Jeremy or Elise. Basically both great, but one of them must go home and the judges pick Jeremy to go home. The reason in my point of view that Jeremy must go home because Jeremy already has safe by the judges in the wildcard round and for the second time Jeremy not through by the vote of the audience, it can mean that not many people like him or connect to him and it make a vote for him not so many. The other reason is Jeremy perform with not really good and it cause to him to get the lowest number of vote.<br />
<br />
Still sad when I knew that Jeremy must go home. I really believe of him that he can bring a great performance, but there is no chance to see him again in Idol stage. We just can hope that one label will contract him and Jeremy can release an album or maybe just one single. Wish u all the best JerBear, I pray the best for you JerBear.....<br />

The theme of this TOP 13 performances is tribute to Stevie Wonder and Whitney Houston. Also that a tricky rule in this season, in this Top 13 the result show will be the battle of the boys versus the girls. The lowest number of vote in boys group and the lowest number of vote in girls group will facing the elimination and one of them will be eliminate by the judges, so the judges have the power to make someone cry and going home also the dream is over.<br />
<br />
Let's talk about the performance....<br />
<br />
Joshua Ledet - I Wish<br />
Smokin' Hot performance by Joshua Ledet. He really surprised me that he can perform like that. Amazing vocal performance and memorable performance. Love Joshua performance and magnificent opening number performance.<br />
<br />
Elise Testone<br />
The vocal sounded so good, but she too much think in her performance and lack of using heart.. It was good, but the connection with the song very lack. So.. the performance just great bunch of technique, but lack of heart and emotion. If she use heart, the performance will be more great.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Jermaine Jones<br />
What I felt for Jermaine performance same like Elise did. He really want to show his ability in singing and definitely he bring that with nice vocal performance also I believe he push more in his singing ability, it was nice, but again lack of heart and emotion.<br />
<br />
Erika Van Pelt<br />
Agree with Jennifer Lopez, if she using more heart and more connect to the song right in the very beginning, the performance not just nice and good but will be so awesome. Overall was good and nice performance, but what I like about Erika performance is Erika can build the dynamic in her performance, so Erika is starting in the low moment and goes to the end it's climbing to the climax and she ended her performance with very beautiful and strong. She got the climax and what she did in the dynamic in the song was so great. She has many potential to prove in this competition, so please vote for her America....<br />
<br />
Colton Dixon<br />
Colton Dixon is a superstar. He has a charisma and aura to be a superstar also to be a champion. He have all the things to be a winner of American Idol. He definitely can win this competition, if he bring it every single week. Who knew that He will be good in Stevie Wonder week? I surprised. That was very good performance from Colton Dixon and also in the end he gave it all, magnificent ending performance.<br />
<br />
Shannon Magrane<br />
I still believe that she has ability to nail this song, but the advise from Mary and Jimmy for use heart to sing this performance didn't Shannon bring into her live performance. She started with good I think, but I looks that she didn't comfortable with her performance and I think Steven Taylor was right bout the nervous beat her in this performance. So... Shannon performance swallowed by a strong song, it painful to see the performance of Shannon goes to the end, I didn't get the connection, didn't get the moment, feels so terible for her, I know she talented and very potential person because she very young, but she could be in the trouble this week. Wish u all the best Shannon.<br />
<br />
Deandre Brackensick<br />
Wow! Deandre also surprised me. He didn't use her falseo voice again and he like Joshua bring a surprise performance by took a beat song. Nice performance by Deandre and this is what I want coming from Deandre, the performance who really likeable, easy to enjoy and the voice still dammed great!. What a cool performance from him!!! well done Deandre. Also agree with Jennifer, I don't want the performance by Deandre stop hahaha....<br />
<br />
Skylar Laine<br />
Agree with the judges, in the beginning of the performance not really sure bout the performance will be good, but Skylar gave it all in the end of the part of her performance. The ending part is so memorable part, great vocal performance, great emotion and the whole performance become so good because the end of part it's so gorgeous.<br />
<br />
Heejun Han<br />
Heejun redeem himself by give a great performance. Heejun voice so tender and so smooth in this song, very beautiful performance. Much better than last week performance. I believe he will save because with both of personality and great performance, every single contestant will be have a far far away journey.<br />
<br />
Hollie Cavanagh<br />
My little girl with big voice. I just can say great, great and great. Also much better than last week, last week already good, and tonight she more great!! I hope she give a tremendous improvement week by week and also give a surprise performance that we don't expect and I hope she will bring it as soon as possible. Talented girl!!! Go Hollie!!!...<br />
<br />
Jeremy Rosado<br />
Unfortunately the performance not great like he did in wildcard performance, but it still good. If he give more power in this performance, the performance will be more great. In some moment felt like lack of power, but she has a smooth and tender voice who make juicy my ears, still love him. Not best performance of him, but still good.<br />
<br />
Jessica Sanchez - I Will Always Love You<br />
Agree with Randy, this girl is the best voice of this season. I see many time the contestant who sing "I Will Always Love You" and became a disaster, but she really did a great job. Of course can't compare to Whitney, but she still doing a great job. There was many moment that so beautiful, so memorable and so amazing. This girl can win this competition, watch out guys!!...<br />
<br />
Phillip Phillips - Superstition<br />
What I felt about Phillip is the feeling that I feels for Scotty. The performance is not the strongest performance of the night, also not the top three strongest performance, but he still catch the heart of the audience with his unique voice. I love the redemption of "superstition" by Phillip. Phillip with his guitar became an amazing match up. The performance not so spectacular, but still great for close the show.<br />
<br />
Rank of tonight performance :<br />
<br />
and for me the champion of tonight performance is..... JOSHUA LEDET for the boys group and JESSICA SANCHEZ for the girls group<br />
<br />
If I must picked one of them, therefore I will pick JOSHUA LEDET. I know Jessica performance is so amazing and spectacular, but Joshua is the man who surprise me in Top 13 performances and also Joshua give a tremendous vocal performance. So I pick Joshua for the first rank in Top 13 performance.<br />
<br />
*After I watch the performance again... I fix my judging because Jessica performance with "I Will Always Love You" very amazing because of that sorry Joshua, I'll pick Jessica for the first rank in Top 13 Performance.<br />
<br />

<br />
1. Jessica Sanchez<br />
2. Joshua Ledet<br />
3. Deandre Brackensick<br />
4. Colton Dixon<br />
5. Hollie Cavanagh<br />
6. Heejun Han<br />
7. Phillip Phillips<br />
8. Skylar Laine<br />
9. Jeremy Rosado<br />
10. Erika Van Pelt<br />
11. Jermaine Jones<br />
12. Elise Testone<br />
13. Shannon Magrane<br />
<br />
Joshua, Jessica and Deandre performances are the performances that we will remember in many long time and after this season over we will be still remember that performances, in my opinion.<br />
<br />
who will be eliminated?? I don't knowww.... I don't want Shannon go home T.T and also don't want Elise go home, because I know that two ladies can give a wonderful performance. I more happy if Jermaine go home, but I know he also good and his voice is so unique and we still need more that color of voice in this competition. So.... I don't know who will go home.... I hope judges make the decision with very wisely...<br />
<br />
Just let seee.....<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
They are the top 13 of American Idol Season 11. Who will win? I don't know because everybody has potential to win this competition. All of them have a great moment in their performance first live show and I really agree by the viewer of America. Maybe only Heejun who the performance not so strong like the other, but his personality is in the top of the list. Heejun can go far in this competition only based by his personality, but he can really go more far and maybe through to top five if his performance consistently good every single week.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It's hard to make a prediction, but I'll try to make a prediction and this is my prediction based on waht they did so far (hometown audition, hollywood weeks, and first live show)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Colton --> He definitely can win this competition, if he can bring the performance like he did in the first live show performance. I believe that top 5 is in his hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Deandre --> Deandre voice definitely one of the strongest voice in this season, but he must figure it out how to connect with the audience because strong voice not enough to win this competition. If he want to win this competition he must know how to be more like able and easy to enjoy because sometime to heavy to enjoy and make the connection not so strong with the audience. Top 5? I don't think he can make it based on what he did so far</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Elise --> Elise has a great voice and also she can plays the instrument, which is great. She can win this competition? Yes!, She can arrive in the top 5? Yes!. I think she like Haley last season, not so strong as personal and character, maybe in the beginning of the show she will landed in bottom three in many times, but week by week she getting better and people will connect to her and vote for her.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Erika Van Pelt --> She also has a great voice and one of the strongest of this season too, but as personal not so memorable. She can win this competition and also she can go to the top 5, if she nail the performance every single week. But based on what she did so far, top 7 is the best position that she can hit.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Heejun Han --> Only personality can bring Heejun go far in this competition, but based on voice and performance, I think he will got cut soon maybe in first or second week or more far in third week. Hopefully he can fix his performance and can stay in the competition more longer because the competition more hilarious if he there.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Hollie Cavanagh --> I think she is a dark horse in this season. She didn't get enough shot (primetime) during Hollywood Weeks, but she has a big voice and big potential to win this competition. The first live show not really perfect, but I believe she will give surprise performance soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Jeremy Rosado --> everybody heart will be touch by this kid. If he sang by his heart every single week, he can not only go further in this competition, but top five and the champion he can get it. But my prediction say that he will be eliminated before top 5 maybe top 6 or top 7 he will got cut.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Jermaine Jones --> He has the most unique voice in this season. The first live show he did great and as I said every single contestant has a chance and potential to win this competition and definitely Jermaine can achieve that. But my prediction his journey will be not so long in this competition.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Jessica Sanchez --> For me, she is the front runner in the girls group. She big chance to win this competition and top five in her hands already, but watch out Jessica because I hope your journey not the same like Pia great in the beginning of the show but got cut in the middle of the competition.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Joshua Ledet --> He also can go so further in this competition and it will be shocking moment if he leave the competition immediately. I believe the title of American Idol can get in Joshua hand and I have a big faith that he will arrive in the top five too.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Phillip Phillips --> He can win this competition like Scotty McCreery did. The character of the voice definitely can bring Phillip to the throne of the champion. He is the favorite of the judges, many audience remember him and I really believe the journey of him will be really the same like Scotty.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Shannon --> Shannon age is so young and sometime it give a bad impact because too unstable emotion. If she got a negative comment, she can broke in the tears and maybe down. She emotion like Lauren Alaina last season and her voice also great like Lauren Alaina and I think Shannon has more a great power in her voice. Definitely can go to the top five and also I think she is one of the front runner in the girl group.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Skylar --> She really like Kellie Pickler. If in the male side we have Heejun, so in the girl side we have Skylar. She will be the miss personality this season and it will remember us to Kellie Pickler. I think she can do really well in this competition. Great voice and great personality, two great combination.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So who will win this competition?? I don't know... I can't give a name for the winner because there are some contestant who in the same position.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In the front runner :</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- Phillip Phillips</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- Colton Dixon</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- Joshua Ledet</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- Jessica Sanchez</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
- Deandre Brackensick</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- Heejun Han</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That's my prediction, maybe you will agree with that and maybe you will hate to that... just share my opinion.... for the fans of Jermaine, Deandre and Heejun so sorry, nothing personal, I just analysis based on their performance based on my point of view ^^</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But.... my biggest vote I will give to Colton Dixon for male and Hollie Cavanagh for girl, honestly Phillip is the top vote in the male side, but Phillip performance in the first live show not impress me so much, because of that my top of the vote in male goes to Colton Dixon. So just share again my list of the rank who I will vote :</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. Hollie Cavanagh</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. Colton Dixon</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. Phillip Phillips</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
5. Jeremy Rosado</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
6. Shannon Magrane</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My vote only for them and for the rest sorry I wouldn't give a vote for the rest hahaha except my idol got eliminate hehehe.... Go Hollie!!! Colton!! Phillip!! Joshua!! Jeremy!! and Shannon!!! I hope one of them will be the next of American Idol....</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Basically I love every single contestant in this season. In this season, nothing is too much disparity between one another. Whoever win this competition I will still happy.... Can't wait to see their performance because I believe they will be great.... I hope every single person give the best shot so make the viewer confuse to vote. hahahaha</div>Ardhie Hadiantohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14147880533880603187noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7194859746144838122.post-54961465403532354372012-03-02T23:20:00.000+07:002012-03-08T02:33:43.427+07:00American Idol 11 : First Result Show + Wildcard RoundIn Friday, we saw the very first time result show of American Idol Season 11. The result show of course for reveal the finalist and we have top 13 for American Idol season 11. What I want to discuss is the wildcard round.<br />
<br />
The wildcard round this season also awesome like last year. Everybody give the best performance that they can give. So... many performance was so amazing.<br />
<br />
Six person that choose by the judges are Jen Hirsh, Jeremy Rosado, Brielle Von Hugel, Deandre Brackensick, Erika Van Pelt and Reed Grimm.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
Only one of them give a disappointed performance and that is Brielle Von Hugel. Just by a second that I knew she sang Adele song, I knew that her performance wouldn't be great and will turn to be a disaster. The result exactly by what I expect just by a second heard the instrument of Adele song. Brielle pick a bad song choice, to sing "Someone Like You" from Adele in wildcard round is a fool, that song is hard to sing and every person already know how great that song sing by Adele, so Brielle at least must tie the performance by Adele, but she did so far away from Adele performance, pitchy in many spot, the emotion not so deep, so... the end of her performance I can say goodbye Brielle.<br />
<br />
For the other contestants, they bring what they can do. Reed Grimm again bring his unique performance, but his performance already cover by Jeremy and Deandre, overall Reed performance not so memorable and not great like Jeremy and Deandre. So after he done singing, I can say goodbye to him too.<br />
<br />
Deandre Brackensick pick a great song and the voice really shine in that song, but not only the voice who stand out in that performance, but the connection to the audience also great because many people know the song and not a song that hard to enjoy too and also the song can bring give wow moments in many spot. If he just use the technical of his voice, he will be so hard to win this competition, but if he can use the technique, the emotion and the connection to the audience he will be great.<br />
<br />
Jeremy Rosado performance is the best performance in wildcard round. This performance will be the performance that hard to forget because it so wonderful. My heart really touched by Jeremy performance. This performance is the performance that I will remember all the time and after the show is over, I still will remember this performance, amazing performance and I believe this performance will be one of the strongest performances of this season.<br />
<br />
Jen Hirsh also give it all in her performance, but unfortunately the moment of Erika more strong than Jen Hirsh. Erika Van Pelt performance is so awesome, she not only gave the voice, but the emotion too. She has a performance that similar to Jeremy Rosado, not only give a great vocal performance, but also use a heart when sing the song. What a really touching performance also from Erika. I can say that Erika performance "Edge of Glory" hard to forget and I will remember this performance for a long time and I believe this performance will be one of the best performances of this season.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately great performance by Jen Hirsh not enough to bring her to the next round and her journey must stop in top 25 performances. Reed and Brielle also facing a same destiny like Jen, both of them must going home and must happy to made it this far in this competition. Good luck guys....<br />
<br />
Wildcard round is awesome.... like last year, everybody gave everything that they can give in the wildcard round. Every single person sang for their life and the output they gave it all. Hot hot hot round!!! I still can remember last year wildcard round, when Stefano sing for his life that performance so amazing and I still can remember that performance, also the performance from Ashton when she sang a song from movie Dreamgirls it so amazing too. And this year we have Jeremy and Erika who the performance is so awesome and so memorable.<br />
<br />
Great wildcard rounnnddd!!!!!Ardhie Hadiantohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14147880533880603187noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7194859746144838122.post-52169855773508318762012-03-01T23:05:00.000+07:002012-03-02T15:06:01.211+07:00American Idol 11 : Top 12 Female Semi-Finalist PerformanceChelsea<br />
She has a nice voice, but with a song from Carrie Underwood her voice not looks nice. The power not strong like Carrie so when she sang "Cowboy Cassanova" it lack of power. The part of the end more good than the beginning, but the overall still not nice and lack of power really shown in her performance. Very unfortunate....<br />
<br />
Erika<br />
I agree with Jennifer Lopez, she can push more a little bit, if she do that the performance will be so awesome. The peak moment could be more higher, if she hit that, it will be so memorable performance. Overall just okay strong performance, but it will stood out if compare to the other? I don't know. I think she like Lauren Turner last year have a strong voice, but the performance not so memorable and the connection to the audience a little bit lack.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
Jen<br />
She gave it all in her performance. She deserve a spot in next round. Everything were good and nothing to be fix, very strong performance from Jen. Go Jen!....<br />
<br />
Brielle<br />
A little bit rough in the beginning, but goes to the end she's going better. Although the performance enough to called strong, but I'm not sure she will make it to the next round. Like I said before, this good, but if compare to the other performance, is it still good and strong enough to make it? I will say no...<br />
<br />
Hallie<br />
She is really good when in the beginning when sing with the standing mike, but after that the performance a little bit shaky and have a weird moment. She definitely can sing, but she must really know how to make a moment that everybody can remember, she did that in the beginning, but goes to the end the moment going flat and can not more higher. So 50:50 chance for her to through the next round.<br />
<br />
Skylar<br />
She has a wonderful personality and it show in her performance. Adorable performance by her and she the only one contestant in the ladies who can show a massive personality in the performance. The voice also sounded great and have a bubbly personality, big chance for her to make it. Love her voice and love her personality. Go Skylar!...<br />
<br />
Baylie<br />
The biggest disappointed of the night. She is one of my favorite in this competition season 11, but her performance not great as I expected. The performance was nice, but not strong enough for my standard. I don't know about her chance because it feels like she destroy a chance of her to make it through.<br />
<br />
Hollie<br />
One of my favorite in this season and Thanks GOD she did awesome job. She sang "Reflection" with good, that some part who little bit shaky, but there are many part who really good and strong, definitely from the middle part until the end really strong performance that she gave. Please don't compare her with Christian because Christina is diva and Hollie still new in this business Still support her to make it through and hopefully it will happen.<br />
<br />
Haley<br />
What a weird song choice by Haley. She has a great voice, but why she choose this song? OMG!. This song not give a positive value for her performance. Agree with Randy, pitchy all over the place and the song not good for her in my opinion. I hope she can pick a better song.<br />
<br />
Shannon<br />
A Strong performance by Shannon and I'm more happy because she not show the crawling in this performance. Beautiful girl sing with very beautiful. She also one of my favorite and she really deserve the spot in next round. If she didn't make it, it will be shocking moment. Go Shannon!<br />
<br />
Jessica<br />
A biggest surprise of the night. I know that she has a great voice, but to bring this great performance in the condition when she sick, it's unbelievable. Jennifer Lopez gave her standing ovation, which is that was good and I also agree with that. Amazing performance by her. Really great job!.<br />
<br />
Elise<br />
Elise close the show with strong. I hope she have a spot in the next round because we need a woman who have a great musicality and can play the instrument also have a great voice and Elise have all of that. Great performance in the end of the show.<br />
<br />
1. Jessica<br />
2. Shannon<br />
3. Jen<br />
4. Elise<br />
5. Hollie C<br />
6. Skylar<br />
7. Hallie D<br />
8. Erika<br />
9. Brielle<br />
10. Chelsea<br />
11. Baylie<br />
12. Haley<br />
<br />
Chelsea, Baylie and Haley are a beautiful girl who had a bad performance, it so nice to see them through, but the chance for them it's so hard....<br />
<br />
Brielle, Erika and Hallie D have a 50:50 chance to make it through<br />
<br />
Jessica, Shannon, Jen, Elise, Hollie C, and Skylar have the biggest chance to make it through to the next round. But there's only five spot? who will make it?<br />
<br />
I hope there is a spot for Shannon and Hollie Cavanagh. Amin... hahahaha<br />
<br />
Don't forget to watch the result show because we will know who will make it through.... see yaArdhie Hadiantohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14147880533880603187noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7194859746144838122.post-10018044816720733782012-02-29T23:12:00.000+07:002012-03-02T03:13:48.601+07:00American Idol 11 : Top 13 Male Semi-Finalist PerformancesReed Grimm<br />
Unbelievable performance by Reed, Reed has a great musicality, what an unbelievable performance by him, he can make a jazz version of “Move Like Jagger” with wonderful. Great great great performance by Reed right in the beginning of the competition. Very very nice, but I hope the voters will get it to the Reed performance because usually the voters hate the heavy understanding performance, I hope he can make it to the next round bcoz he has a great musicality and American Idol needs that color hahaha...<br />
<br />
Adam Brock<br />
He sang so effortless. I’m not the fans of him, but I can’t deny that he has a great performance with “Think”. He really comfortable to sang in that stage, he own the stage, he own the song, everything are right in this performance. Great job, Adam.
<br />
<br />
Deandre Brackensick<br />
I hate the song choice by him, but his voice is so juicy. Oh my GOD! He has a ridiculous voice, awesome voice that he have. If he can pick a song more famous and more knew by many people and sing with that ridiculous awesome voice, he can really touch many people and move many people to vote for him. Based on his voice he can make it to the next round, but by the whole performance… I don’t know… that was some great moment in there, but the moment can’t stuck in my head bcoz lack of connection with the song.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Colton Dixon<br />
Everything are right in the pocket, there was nothing wrong with that performance. I feels goosy!!!... Amazing performance by him, Love his performance. By far, Colton performance is the most that I liked and so memorable in my head. He sang with heart and that amazing!.<br />
<br />
Jeremy Rosado<br />
Oh my GOD! One of my favorite songs from Sara Bareiles sang by him. What a beautiful tender moment…. He sang with heart and he hit that peak moment, beautiful performance, love his voice, amazing wonderful performance. If I already said that Colton performance is the most that I liked so far, I think I must edit that because now Jeremy Rosado performance is in my top of the list.<br />
<br />
Aaron Marcellus<br />
I’m not really like by the song that he choose, but I surprised because he can make the song more nice to hear. He performance more goes to the end more many moment that can be remember. Nice performance by Aaron and also he got the standing ovation from the judges, that was good, but in my opinion the judges too early to give standing ovation hahahaha…. But overall good performance by Aaron<br />
<br />
Chase Likens<br />
Chase has a mediocre performance, it was like karaoke performance, there was nothing moment that I can remember, after the show is over I definitely will forget about his performance. I really believe by a lot of prediction in the internet that Chase already eliminated before the top 13 male performances. He has a forgettable personality and also he has forgettable performance. If he make it to the next round, I will be so shock!. What a weird situation too when all judges praise him, the judges too nice and kind this year.<br />
<br />
Creighton Fraker<br />
What a strong performance by him. I’m not sure in the beginning, but goes to the end Creighton performance is more more better and make a lot of moment to remember. One of my favorite performances of the night. I’m a supporter for him and hope he can make it to the next round because Creighton definitely can sing.<br />
<br />
Phillip Phillips<br />
What a biggest disappointed of the night. He is my top favorite male idol in this season, but the performance not great as I expected. The guitar performance by him in this performance, not give many added positive value to his performance and in my opinion useless guitar performance. Sorry Phillip, I’m still the fans of you, but not strong performance by you and especially in this tight competition like this… I want he make it to the next round, but I’m not sure after watch his performance, I hope people still voting for him because the voice of him is million dollar bill.<br />
<br />
Eben Franckewitz<br />
The worse performances of the night and I still wondering why all judges praises his performance, I don’t get the nice moment in Eben performance. I don’t know what in Eben head to have a big brave by sing Adele song “Set Fire To The Rain”. Adele song is hard to sing and Eben definitely swallowed by the song of Adele. Eben can not connect with the song, he emotion not fit to the song and no power in his performance. Bad bad bad performance. The word that I can say to him is Goodbye Eben.<br />
<br />
Heejun Han<br />
I believe that he can do much better in this song, but he doesn’t pushes more in this performance. My expectation more high for him, but the result not as I expected like Phillip performance. However overall still good performance, but is this performance strong enough to make it? I’m not sure, but with Heejun great personality definitely he can make many people vote for him. <br />
<br />
Joshua Ledet<br />
Touchdown!!!! In the end of the show. What a great performance by Joshua right in the end of the show. The show open by wonderful performance and ended by wonderful performances too. This season will be a great season too!! There was so many talented and wonderful artist and Joshua is one of them. Joshua definitely must have a spot in the next round.<br />
<br />
Jermaine Jones<br />
The moment that we’ve been waiting for, that is who the thirteen male contestant picked by the judges and he is Jeremy “Gentle Giant Guy”. He sang “Dance With My Father Again”, although he performance was nice, good and very touching because he sang with heart, but I’m not sure that he will through to the next round. Sorry Jeremy, but I think your journey will end tonight because not strong enough. One thing can make him made it to the next round because the sweetness personality by him and people feel so pity for him.<br />
<br />
1.Jeremy Rosado<br />
2.Colton Dixon<br />
3.Joshua Ledet<br />
4.Reed Grimm<br />
5.Creighton Fraker<br />
6.Aaron Marcellus<br />
7.Adam Brock<br />
8.Jermaine Jones<br />
9.Heejun Han<br />
10.Phillip Phillips<br />
11.Deandre Brackensick<br />
12.Chase Likens<br />
13.Eben Franckeweitz<br />
<br />
Eben and Chase in the zone of no chance to make it<br />
<br />
Deandre in the zone of the low chance to make it through<br />
<br />
Phillip Phillips, Heejun Han, Jermaine in middle (50:50) chance to make it thorugh<br />
<br />
Adam Brock, Aaron, Creighton, Reed, Joshua Ledet, Colton Dixon, and Jeremy Rosado in the big chance to make it through, but for Aaron and Creighton still worry about they chance because I don’t feel that they make a lot of connection to the audience, they have a great voice and definitely can sing, but in the side of personality they lose by Phillip, Heejun and Jermaine. So… I don’t know who will make it through…. At least no Chase and Eben hopefully in the next round, for another contestants still okay for me.<br />
<br />
But still voting for Colton, Joshua, Phillip (although the performance not good, but already fall in love by his quirky awesome voice, like Scotty has a million dollar bill voice), and Creighton.<br />
<br />

We already know sensational single like "Rolling In The Deep", "Someone Like You" and "Set Fire To The Rain". I don't know what the 4th single Adele will release, but the other single called "Rumour Has It" already play by the other artist or singer in Television.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First time I know this song when one contestant on The Voice sing this song. That contestant is Mathai and she sang "Rumour Has It". When I saw that performance, I just really like the song and fell in love with the song. Before I knew that from Adele, Glee also take that song to be their routine and Glee more crazy because "Rumour Has It" combine with "Someone Like You" make the song more awesome and I more crazy in love by Adele songs especially "Rumous Has It".</div>
<div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div>
"Rumour Has It" definitely will fill my playlist this entire week and in the big chance to sit in the number one of my playlist for the most song plays this week, but who version will win? is it Glee Version or Adele original version? but unfortunately for Mathai version, it will not fill my playlist yet, maybe later for Mathai version because I think Glee version and Adele version more great than Mathai, but Mathai performance wasn't bad, Mathai performance also great and so catchy also so happy for her to made it thorugh and coach by Adam Levine, but the version of Adele and Glee more more great</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I will share to you first from Mathai -the contestant of The Voice-</div>

Katy Perry's "Part of Me" rockets in at the Billboard Hot 100summit, while Adele, the late Whitney Houston, Nicki Minaj and Chris Brown all make notable news in the chart's top 10.
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Following her appearance at the 54th Grammy Awards on Feb. 12, Perry, who performed "Part" in a medley with her former No. 1 "E.T.," engineers just the 20th No. 1 entrance in the Hot 100's 53-year history. Lady Gaga had last stormed in at the chart's top spot almost a year ago (Feb. 26, 2011) with "Born This Way," which also benefitted from Grammys exposure last year; "Born" reached retail and radio the Friday before last year's event, at which Gaga sang it.<br />
<br />
"Part" marks the first start at the pinnacle for a single on the storied Capitol Records label. The song is Perry's seventh career Hot 100 No. 1.<br />

After Capitol released it to radio and retail on Feb. 13, "Part," the lead single from Perry's "Teenage Dream" deluxe edition, "The Complete Confection" (due March 27), blasts in atop the Hot 100 and Digital Songs with 411,000 downloads sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan, marking Perry's best career sales week. On Radio Songs, "Part" launches at No. 36 with 35 million audience impressions, according to Nielsen BDS.
<br />
<br />
"Confection" picks up where the original version of "Dream" left off: producing a Hot 100 No. 1. Dream matched Michael Jackson's Bad (1987-88) by tallying five Hot 100 leaders, the most toppers from a single album over one release in the chart's archives.<br />
<br />
A Grammy Awards afterglow likewise shines on Adele, whose three former Hot 100 No. 1s bullet in the top 10: "Set Fire to the Rain" holds at No. 2 (and No. 1 on Radio Songs for a second week; 143 million, up 4%); "Rolling in the Deep," the record and song of the year which Adele performed at the Grammys, charges back 17-5 (in its 59th chart week; 271,000, up 115%); and, "Someone Like You" jumps 11-7.
<br />
<br />
With the gains, Adele makes history as the first female ever to place three titles in the Hot 100's top 10 concurrently as a lead artist. Only one other woman had ever claimed a 30% share of the top 10: Ashanti, who charted a trio of tracks in the top tier the weeks of March 30 and April 6 in 2002. She sported featured artist billing, however, on two of those entries.
<br />
<br />
Until this week, Chris Brown last placed three songs in the Hot 100's top 10 as a lead artist the week of May 10, 2008. (More on Brown, who bows in this week's top 10, ahead).
<br />
<br />
Adele's historic week on the Hot 100 complements her record-breaking frame on the Billboard 200 albums chart. As previously reported, her sophomore set "21" logs a 21st week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, passing Whitney Houston's soundtrack to "The Bodyguard" for the most weeks on top for an album by a woman in the chart's history.
<br />
<br />
Despite Houston's posthumously ceding her Billboard 200 record to Adele, love for the singer following her death at age 48 on Feb. 11 results in a 7-3 Hot 100 jump for her signature 1992 ballad "I Will Always Love You." The song ascends with the chart's top Digital Gainer honor, improving by 89% to 367,000 in the first full sales tracking week following her passing.
<br />
<br />
Houston also rises on the Hot 100 with former '80s No. 1s "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)" (35-25); "Greatest Love of All" (41-36); and, "How Will I Know" (a re-entry at No. 49).
<br />
<br />
Despite falling from No. 1 to No. 4 on the Hot 100 after two weeks in the driver's seat (fairly literally, considering the song's placement in Toyota's current Camry advertising campaign), "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" nets the Hot 100's top Airplay Gainer tag, motoring 7-4 on Radio Songs (91 million, up 19%). The cut decelerates 2-5 on Digital Songs (252,000, down 3%).
<br />
<br />
In between Adele at Nos. 5 and 7, fun.'s "We Are Young," featuring Janelle Monae, drops 3-6 on the Hot 100. Rihanna's former 10-week No. 1 "We Found Love," featuring Calvin Harris, falls from No. 6 to No. 8.
<br />
<br />
Nicki Minaj, whose performance of "Roman Holiday" at the Grammysdrew mixed reviews (to be kind), roars onto the Hot 100 at No. 9 with "Starships," the lead radio single from the rapper's second studio set "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" (due April 3). The track arrives at No. 7 on Digital Songs (204,000) and No. 72 on Radio Songs (17 million, up 67%).
<br />
<br />
The bow marks Minaj's first arrival in the Hot 100's top 10 and tops her previous best, set two weeks ago, when Madonna's "Give Me All Your Luvin'," featuring Minaj and M.I.A., opened at No. 13. (After lifting to No. 10 last week, becoming Madonna's record-extending 38th top 10, "Luvin' " plummets to No. 39 this week).
<br />
<br />
Chris Brown rounds out the Hot 100's top bracket, as "Turn Up the Music" enters at No. 10. After he performed the song in a medley with "Beautiful People" at the Grammys, the cut vaults onto Digital Songs at No. 9 (180,000) and climbs 71-56 on Radio Songs (21 million, up 27%). "Turn" is also generating buzz for its remix featuring Rihanna, marking the first musical reunion of Brown and his former girlfriend following his domestic assault charges against her three years ago.<br />

Adele's "21" album hits a number of major milestones this week on the Billboard 200 chart, as it basks in the glow of the British diva's multiple Grammy Award wins on Feb. 12.
<br />
<br />
The album sold 730,000 copies in the U.S. last week (ending Feb. 19) according to Nielsen SoundScan -- up a whopping 207%. It spends a 21st week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
<br />
<br />
It is the biggest sales week for any album since Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter IV" debuted at No. 1 with 964,000 on the chart dated Sept. 17, 2011. 730,000 is also the largest week for "21," as its previous-best week came over the Christmas holiday, when it shifted 399,000.
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-B3EXd3M7UxI/T0YWmfPA2xI/AAAAAAAABlI/nhQPHHHKqkI/s1600/Adele+-+21.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-B3EXd3M7UxI/T0YWmfPA2xI/AAAAAAAABlI/nhQPHHHKqkI/s320/Adele+-+21.JPG" width="317" /></a>
<br />
<br /></div>
More impressively, the last time a non-debuting album sold more than "21" did this past week was on the chart dated Jan. 5, 2008. That was when Josh Groban's "Noel" album moved 757,000 copies over the busy Christmas week of 2007.
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Among all albums, since SoundScan started tracking sales in 1991, "21" has the second-largest sales week for an album outside of the Christmas shopping season and its first month of release. Only the "Titanic" soundtrack moved more (with those qualifiers) on the chart dated Feb. 28, 1998, when it sold 848,000 at No. 1 -- two months after its debut. (It had a huge gain that week on the chart -- it was up by 44% -- thanks to the Valentine's Day holiday.)
<br />
<br />
"21" is No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart for a 21st nonconsecutive week, marking the longest-running No. 1 album in the SoundScan era. It surpasses "The Bodyguard" soundtrack (20 weeks at No. 1 in 1992-1993) for the most chart-topping frames since the Billboard 200 began using SoundScan data in 1991.
<br />
<br />
"21" -- Adele's second album -- also becomes the longest-running No. 1 album by a woman in history, surpassing the Whitney Houston-led "Bodyguard" album.
<br />
<br />
Next up in "21's" sights is M.C. Hammer's "Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em," which also banked 21 weeks at No. 1 back in 1990.
<br />
<br />
Here are the albums with the most weeks at No. 1 in the nearly-56 year history of the Billboard 200 chart:
<br />
<br />
Weeks at No. 1, Title, Artist, Peak Year
54, "West Side Story" soundtrack, 1962**
37, "Thriller," Michael Jackson, 1983
31, "Rumours," Fleetwood Mac, 1977
31, "South Pacific" soundtrack, 1958
31, "Calypso," Harry Belafonte, 1956 24, "Purple Rain," Prince and the Revolution/Soundtrack, 1984
24, "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack, 1978
21, "Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em," M.C. Hammer, 1990
21, "21," Adele, 2011
<br />
<br />
** (The figure of 54 weeks at No. 1 combines the set's time atop separate stereo and mono LP charts before the Billboard 200 became a singular ranking the week of Aug. 17, 1963.)
<br />
<br />
"21" also turns one-year old on the Billboard 200 as it claims its 52nd week on the list. The album has never left the top 10 in its entire chart run, dipping only as low as No. 7 on Dec. 10, 2011.
<br />
<br />
Adele is not only No. 1 on the Billboard 200 this week, but she's also No. 4 with her debut set, "19" (87,000; up 144%). It's the album's best sales week and highest position. Combined, "21" and "19" moved 817,000 copies last week.
<br />
<br />
This is the first time an act has two concurrent albums in the top four of the chart since Oct. 9, 2004, when Nelly's concurrently-released "Suit" and "Sweat" were Nos. 2 and 4 in their second week on the chart.
<br />
<br />
The last time an act snared two albums in the top five -- that weren't released at the same time -- was on April 4, 1992. That was when Garth Brooks' "Ropin' the Wind" was No. 2 and "No Fences" was No. 4.
<br />
<br />
It should be noted that while Billboard 200 has allowed catalog (older) albums to chart since the end of 2009 (thus why we see "19" in the top four), that wasn't always the case. On the now-defunct Top Comprehensive Albums chart (which ranked both new and old albums), Michael Jackson posthumously notched three out of the top four during seven nonconsecutive weeks in 2009.
<br />
<br />
Finally, "21's" so-far three singles moved an incredible number of downloads last week -- a combined total of 709,000. "Rolling in the Deep" shifted 271,000 (up 115%), "Set Fire to the Rain" did 254,000 (up 36%) and "Someone Like You" sold 183,000 (up 44%).

<div style="text-align: left;">
54th Grammy Awards already held and that event was a cool party. Many great performance like Katy Perry with her new single "Part of Me", Chris Brown stunning performance, Nicki Minaj theatrical drama performance and there are still many performance worthy to watch performance. I really satisfied watch an event like grammy this year, awesome event!.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As I expected, Adele will be the champion of grammy this year. Adele took 6 Grammy from every nomination that she in, she's not losing any one of nomination that she have this year, unbelievable!. That makes artists like Rihanna, Bruno Mars and Katy Perry must bite their finger because they didn't bring anything from this event, very unfortunately.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Another victory goes to Foo Fighters. Foo Fighters took five Grammy from this 54th Grammy. Nomination in Rock genre section all taken by Foo Fighters from performance, song until album, what an amazing victory.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Nicki Minaj - Turn Me OnNew song added to ArD Playlist and this is the number one of ArD Playlist of 2nd week February 2012. This is the 7th top song in 2012. This is so cool and so party song. Love this song much....<br />
<br />
The video also terrific video, I like the part of Nicki Minaj as a part of robot and have a transition to be a full of human although not really smooth, people around Nicki and David like a mannequin but illustrated as a human in that video. Awesome video effect from the beginning till the end. Overall quite nice video...<br />

In what an RCA Records representative terms a "perfect storm" of radio airplay, digital sales and pop culture prominence, Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" rises from No. 2 to No. 1 on this week's Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. The uptempo pop anthem becomes the original "American Idol" champion's third leader on the list. <br />
<br />
Clarkson first reigned with her "Idol" coronation song "A Moment Like This" for two weeks in 2002. She returned to the summit with "My Life Would Suck Without You" for two weeks beginning this week in 2009.<br />
<br />
"Stronger" soars to the Hot 100's top spot with top Airplay Gainer honors, charging 33-15 on the Radio Songs chart (58 million audience impressions, up 49%, according to Nielsen BDS). <br />
<br />
On the Digital Songs survey, "Stronger" spends a second week at No. 1. The song sold 237,000 downloads (up 6%) in the list's tracking week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The sum marks Clarkson's second-best sales week, outpaced only by the debut frame of "My Life" (280,000). <br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
Aiding Clarkson and her new leader's profile, the singer performed the national anthem before Sunday's Super Bowl (Feb. 6) in Indianapolis. With 111.3 million viewers on NBC, the NFL championship game became the most-watched event in TV history, according to Nielsen. <br />
<br />
"Stronger" also serves as the soundtrack to Toyota's current TV spot for its Camry model, in which Clarkson, from the driver's seat, leads a sing-along of the song with the seemingly unlikely trio of ESPN's Chris Berman, Bravo's James Lipton and the Travel Channel's Andrew Zimmern.<br />
<br />
As Clarkson motors to the Hot 100's top spot, Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain" descends to No. 2 after two weeks at No. 1. The song pushes 4-2 on Radio Songs (127 million, up 8%) and holds at No. 2 on Digital Songs (after leading the tally three weeks ago) with 165,000 downloads sold (down 1%). <br />
<br />
Both Clarkson and Adele are among the scheduled performers at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards, to be broadcast Sunday (Feb. 12) at 8 p.m. ET on CBS. <br />
<br />
Flo Rida's "Good Feeling" rebounds from No. 4 to its No. 3 peak-to-date on the Hot 100. Earlier this week, the song became the rapper's third No. 1 on the Pop Songs radio airplay chart. <br />
<br />
Rihanna's former 10-week Hot 100 topper "We Found Love," featuring Calvin Harris, slips 3-4, although it spends an 12th frame at No. 1 on Radio Songs (135 million, down 7%). "Love" is one of just 13 titles to command the airplay chart for at least 12 weeks since the list launched in late 1990. <br />
<br />
David Guetta's "Turn Me On," featuring Nicki Minaj, remains at No. 5 on the Hot 100, jumping into the top 10 (12-8) on Radio Songs (69 million, up 13%) and staying static at No. 3 on Digital Songs (148,000 down 9%).<br />
<br />
The next three titles in the Hot 100's top 10 all climb to new high points: Jessie J's "Domino" (8-6); Tyga's "Rack City" (10-7); and, Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa's "Young, Wild & Free," featuring Bruno Mars (12-8). <br />
<br />
LMFAO's former two-week No. 1 "Sexy and I Know It" (7-9) and Mars' "It Will Rain" (6-10) round out the Hot 100's top tier. <br />
<br />
Just outside the top 10, Madonna roars onto the Hot 100 at No. 13 with "Give Me All Your Luvin'," featuring Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. The first single from Madonna's 12th studio album, "MDNA," due March 26, blasts onto Digital Songs at No. 7 (115,000) and Radio Songs at No. 28 (44 million). <br />
<br />
Like Clarkson, Her Madgesty enjoyed a Super Bowl spotlight, having performed "Luvin'," along with portions of her past smashes, at the big game's halftime festivities. The track also received special attention from Clear Channel Media and Entertainment's more than 50 monitored pop stations, which played it at the top of every hour from Friday at 9 a.m. ET until kickoff Sunday night. <br />
<br />
"Luvin' " marks Madonna's 56th Hot 100 appearance, tying her with Dionne Warwick for the second-most visits among women. Only the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin (73 entries), outdistances the Queen of Pop and Warwick in the category. <br />
<br />
The No. 13 Hot 100 entrance of "Luvin' " ties 1992's "Erotica" for Madonna's fourth-highest. She arrived at loftier ranks only with "Ray of Light" (No. 5, 1998), "You'll See" (No. 8, 1995) and "Frozen" (No. 8, 1998).Ardhie Hadiantohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14147880533880603187noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7194859746144838122.post-6307198215627435602012-01-20T03:06:00.000+07:002012-01-20T03:06:03.669+07:00American Idol Season 11 : Savannah AuditionWohooo.... American Idol Season 11 is back!! and yesterday is season premiere of the season 11. Many great contestant show up in Savannah Audition. This city have a lot of talent and also in this city we will meet brother and sister who audition last year too. Here it is the recap of Savannah Audition...<br />
<br />
First contestant who came to the audition is <b>David Leathers Jr.</b> and he ever compete with Scotty McCreery in local city competition. David has a younger look, so I didn't expect that he is 17 years old. I think he eleven or twelve years old. I like his voice, but I hate the style because he looks so cocky. Not my favorite, but I think he can do well in Hollywood Weeks.<br />
<br />
The contestant in Savannah more more hot after David and there are :<br />
- <b>Gaby Carruba</b><br />
She sang "Sunday Morning" from Maroon 5. She sang so cool and my body can move by the beat of her voice. What a nice voice from 15 years old girl.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
-<b>Brianna Faulk, Neco Starr, Molly Hunt, and Elise Testone</b><br />
Four of them also made it to the Hollywood Weeks. Savannah really bring joy in the beginning of audition, many great talent show up in this audition. Amazing!...<br />
<br />
But.... the awful thing yet to come because next is time for <b>Jessica Whitely</b>. Nothing good from her, the voice is so awful and make all the judges quite for a while because speechless by the awful voice of her haha....<br />
<br />
After Jessica, we met with twin brother Ryan Seacrest who named as <b>Shaun Kraisman</b>. He has a voice really similar with Ryan Seacrest and also the face at some angle really looks like Ryan Seacrest. Unfortunately Shaun voice not so good like his personality, so he must go home.<br />
<br />
My favorite so far in this audition is <b>Shanon Magrone</b>. I love her because her voice is the voice that makes people want to hear the voice. She has an attractive voice, love her and hopefully she can doing well in Hollywood Weeks.<br />
<br />
The woman who live in tend in the middle of forest <b>Amy Brumfield</b>. I also like her voice, very unique and different. Even though I love her and support her, but in my heart I doubt her and I think she will be have a trouble in killer week Hollywood Weeks. I hope I'm wrong, but based on the experience in previous season, many quirky and unique singer must stopped the journey at Hollywood Weeks round one or two (group round).<br />
<br />
The man who called himself has a voice like Daughtry and Brad Praisley, he is <b>Joshua Chavis</b>. When he said that, in a second I doubt him because usually the awful singer have a big confidence and like him have a voice like Daughtry or Brad Praisley, but in fact his voice like a broken radio. Very awful...<br />
<br />
15 years old girl named <b>Stephanie Renae</b> who Randy said not ready yet to compete in Hollywood Weeks, but still made it to the Hollywood Weeks because got vote from Steven Taylor and Jennifer Lopez. She has incredible voice, but I'm not sure she can handle the pressure in Hollywood Weeks, although like that I still believe that the experience in Hollywood Weeks will be a huge experience for her because it will make her more strong and mature as a singer.<br />
<br />
My favorite siblings,<b> Schylar Dixon </b>and <b>Colton Dixon</b> showed up again in this season. Unfortunately, Colton Dixon not auditioning for this season, but the judges not let him so easily. The judges force him to audience and order the sister to bring Colton Dixon to the main room of the audition. Both of them have a great voice. Colton have a great voice and we already know by see him in Hollywood Weeks last season, but the sister also have a good voice because her tone is so unique and make me remember with Xenia from the voice, very unique tone and just by her unique tone, she can sold herself by just her voice.<br />
<br />
Day 1 closed by Jennifer got a goosebumps from a singer who have a big heart in society real world life by become a nurse in autism people, awesome heart and awesome voice too and she is<b> Lauren Mink</b>. Definitely Lauren went to Hollywood Weeks, but is she can survive? I don't know 50:50 for her....<br />
<br />
Day 2 open by a funny audition from <b>Mauwena Kodja</b>. Every judges said that his have a really bad voice and Randy give him a challenge to find the people who says that him have a great voice. Shockingly, He can find the people who says that him have a great voice and they are a grandpa and little girls, so pretty obvious that he has a bad voice because I'm not really trust by opinion a grandpa or little girls.<br />
<br />
<b>Ashlee Altise</b> is one of surprising contestant because I never expect that her have a great voice because the personality is too over the top. My point of view change when I heard the voice by her, actually she has a great voice and combine with great personality, so she can nail this competition if she can consistent and bring the best performance every single time in Hollywood Weeks.<br />
<br />
<b>Erica Nowak</b> is insane lady and really suit with Steven Taylor because both of them are nuts. Erica Nowak grab Steven ass and also Randy ass, OMG!!! hahahaha.... but it funny moment to remember hahaha....<br />
<br />
The beautiful lady with quality of voice who just only mediocre can go through into Hollywood Weeks and she is <b>Brittany Kerr</b>. The beauty of her and the sexyness of her can't be doubt, but the voice I must agree with Jennifer Lopez not strong enough for heat competition like American Idol. So for Brittany Kerr, I hope you get a lesson about how to sing with good before Hollywood Weeks begin because if not with a simple easy cut decision she will going home.<br />
<br />
Savannah audition closed by the outstanding performance by <b>Phillip Phillips</b>. Both of his performance are great, when not using guitar his great and when using guitar his performance was amazing. Really a real contender for this season, watch out guys because Phillip is someone hard to beat.<br />
<br />
That's all my recap about Savannah audition..... can wait for another city audition.... See Ya!...<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Yippie!! my favorite
show of the year finally coming in this January 2012, I mean coming today!!...<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Randy Jackson, Jennifer
Lopez and Steven Taylor travel around America to find the next superstar who
they calleed American Idol. Last year is a great season for American Idol
because the three judges can find amazing talent around America, season 10 is a
hot season and one of the best season of entire American Idol history. Not only
because the winner is awesome singer, but the whole talent is amazing. When the
battle of top 13 is begin, very hard to predict who will win because every
single contestant really neck to neck.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">I hope the season 11 of
American Idol great like last year because I want the hot show like last year
(many surprising moment, up and down moment, shock result show and many more).
Last year winner also make a great achievement in the real world because Scotty
can breakthrough the Billboard top 200 and sit in the number one place. Season
10 also prove that American Idol can still produce a brilliant singer without
intervention of Simon Cowell and also prove that alumni of American Idol still
can compete in the real world of music industry.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">I also have a hope for
this year and this is my biggest hope for American Idol season 11 and that is I
want the winner is Female because the last female winner is Jordin Spark in
Season 6. After that from season 7 to season 10, all winner is male. Season 7
is the year for David Cook, Season 8 is a celebration for Kris Allen, Season 9
is a time to shine for Lee Dewyze and Season 10 is the breakthrough year for
Scotty McCreery. So finger cross and big hope that all female in this year
strong enough to win the title.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">In season 10, in my
opinion the female singer are strong enough to win the competition. There are
Pia Toscano, Lauren Alaina, Haley Reinheart, and Thia Megia who have a big
potential to win the competition. Unfortunately people of American more support
the male singer because the front runner like Pia Toscano must eliminated in
Top 9, that was the biggest shock elimination in Season 10. Thia Megia also
lack of charm to can pull the attention of people of American and also lack of
innovative to her performance, because of that Thia Megia must eliminated
together with Naima Adedapo in Top 11 (Second Round). Haley Reinheart also have
strong potential to win, but American more fall in love with Scotty and Lauren,
so Haley voted off in top 3. Lauren actually made it into the final, but Scotty
is too strong for Lauren and make Lauren must satisfied in second place.
So..... even the female singer is strong enough to win, but without support
from American people they can't win, great singer like Pia Toscano who have the
all it takes to be the winner cannot win the competition because lack of vote
to keep stay her in the competition. I hope people of American want to
pick up they telephone and vote for female singers. C'mon this is the time for
female!! it's so boring to see a boy again to win the competition hehehehe....<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">So... don't forget to
watch American Idol Season 11 today in Star World for all people who live in
Asia-Pacific region. <o:p></o:p></span></div>Ardhie Hadiantohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14147880533880603187noreply@blogger.com0
