gemfyreBoo, I been spoilered. I guess it's my fault for looking at LJ after 5:30 eh?
Wow, Tarisai is a really good speaker eh? Not.
It will be interesting to see how Lana evolves if she gets past round 11. Fark, she sounds like a dumbshit too.
Cheray totally shoulda got it. Wildcard for her!
**1/2
Song Choice
Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin
Predictable.
Singing
Hrm. He's turning this into a pub rock song. I think if Robert Plant were dead he'd be turning in his grave. His pants need to be a little tighter so he can get those high notes.
Wardrobe/Styling
Rock boy. Nothing special.
Stage Presence
He's there. Nothing special.
Overall Performance
Nothing special. Maybe cuz Led Zep is my fave band ever and I don't think anyone can do it justice. Bit like Jesse re-doing One last night.
***1/2
Song Choice
Mad world - not Tears For Fears apparently.
Nice to hear an older song.
Singing
Better than I've heard so far from him.
Wardrobe/Styling
Hah, so much makeup covering all those zits. The outfit looks decent too.
Stage Presence
Understated.
Overall Performance
Surprising.
*
Song Choice
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For - U2
How could he do that to U2?
Right, I understand there's gospel versions, I like the Chimes version, but that was just demented.
Singing
WTF? Histrionics. OMG he sucks.
Wardrobe/Styling
Boring.
Stage Presence
Is that dancing he's attempting?
Overall Performance
O.o
WTF?
At least he does have personality but WTF?
***
Song Choice
John Farnham... that can be dangerous. John Farnham has this habit of going straight to a high note without a buildup. Oh well, let's see which song it is.
That's Freedom - wow, a non-usual Farnham song. It's nice. Not awful keen on the slow arrangement.
Singing
He has an intruging voice. But I like it.
Wardrobe/Styling
Grey. Grey, grey, grey.
Stage Presence
Understated once again.
Overall Performance
I liked it dammit.
***1/2
Song Choice
Desperado - The Eagles
It's a karaoke standard! (I've done it a few times myself :)
Singing
He sings it stacks better than me though.
Wardrobe/Styling
Nice to see some non-grey. Spiffy threads.
Stage Presence
It's a bit like a cabaret performance though.
Overall Performance
Possibly the best so far tonight.
And I agree with Mark about Eagles songs (I do quite a few at karaoke). Sounds simple, but when you do it it's like, "woah, that's tougher than it sounds".
****
Song Choice
Cable Car - The Fray
Great choice.
Singing
Another intruging voice that's grown on me. Very Dave Matthews.
Wardrobe/Styling
What styling?
Stage Presence
Man he is lost without a guitar. What's with that hand?
Overall Performance
Once he learns to perform he'll be awesome. His voice and song choice are great.
I choose - Marty and Dave, because they both intrugue me.
Who'll go through - Benji and Lyall
