Seattle the Strange
Well, if Randy thought Seattle would be better than Minnehopeless, he was wrong. Simon said Seattle was the worst ever. I knew it had to be bad when it started out with another Apollo Creed wannabe and mostly went downhill after that.
Jennifer, the “hotness” girl with the bee stung lips just scared me. And she just kept on singing – even when the judges begged her to stop. I was looking for the big hook to come out and pull her off the stage. Poor Amy, whose husband didn’t support her and she seemed to have no self confidence put herself in front of Simon – what was she thinking? Then there was Darwin – who the *&^% names their daughter Darwin? Have you noticed that most people who cannot sing have some excuse? They either have a cold, are nervous, need to warm up, need water, etc. I wish someone would just say “You know, what? You guys are right – I suck as a singer.”
What was up with Melissa or whatever her name was with the outfit that made her look sunburned? Ew, bad choice of clothing! Some of the singers, like Nick, sang so poorly I found myself clearing MY throat! Then their was big eyed Kenneth and Jonathan, who didn’t suck quite as much as I expected them to. And to finish off “crazy Seattle” as Randy put it, was Red. After his rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody, I am sure Freddie Mercury is spinning in his grave.
Tommy got the first golden ticket. I actually kinda liked him. Blake was okay, Rudy was okay, Anna was TALL and okay (but please, quit yelling!). Jordan was pretty good, but my favorites were the brother and sister Indian duo. They were just too cute for words AND they could both sing! I am looking forward to seeing how they do – they are my favorites so far.
Next up is my hometown – Memphis, Tennessee! Hope they don’t shame me (but I am sure someone will!).
