rockstar : supernova : week seven

at this point i'm not sure why some contestants are still there. well, actually just one. i'm looking at you ms. pike. and a comment about clothing... where on earth did brooke pull out that polyester nightmare? i'm figuring either an airline stewardesses or a newscasters closet - both circa 1974. and poor tommy lee. when my roomie saw him she said, "looks like tommy picked up his outfit from janet jackson's 'rhythm nation' outlet store". i thought it was pretty funny.

regardless - our 'rockers' have come to sing covers once more. and here are my thoughts, comments and other nonsence ramblings. i'm not feeling very chatty today - these will be short.

zayra alvarez - original song
for her original song, she decided to give us a very pretty spanish-language song. very pretty, her voice really suited it. would supernova do this sort of material? not in your life.

magni - starman (david fucking bowie)
entertainment weekly seems to think the gig will either go to magni or to dilanah. and with this performance i can see why. i already thought he was a strong contender - but now he's just getting better and better.

patrice pike - message in a bottle (the police)
i can say nothing nice, positive or constructive here.

lukas rossi - hero (chad kroger)
well, lukas has really found his singing voice at this point in the competition. very nice delivery. however, i hate the song he covered. and i didn't like it with lukas doing it either. it will be interesting to see what will happen as this competition goes on.

storm large - i will survive (gloria gaynor)
this was sort of lounge-singer meets drunken sailor. poor stormy. she just didn't pull this one off. and holy, holy - the comments from the band and mr. dave were really pretty rough.

toby rand - solsbury hill (peter gabriel)
why on earth are vests coming back? practically no one can pull them off. a little too cutesy for me. his voice was a little tight in his throat and a bit like a muppet's.

ryan star - in the air tonight (phil collins)
i think if i don't have to WATCH ryan that i prefer him so much more. he get's this strange and awkwardly intense look on his face and it becomes kind of funny. this song is supposed to be intense and sexy. he got the intense bit down - sort of.

dilanah - cats in the cradle
why is she acting out the song? the hand guestures were really not necessary. i think she might be getting a bit close to 'coasting-ville'.

and as far as bottom three goes. i think it'll end up being patrice, ryan and zayra - though storm may find herself down there. and who goes home. it has to be patrice.
