American Idol – The Ten Dudes Who are Left

By:

The Dude on the Right

So last night was the night for the remaining dudes on "American Idol, and
here’s my rundown of what I thought of the dudes.  We’ll see if have enough
gumption to do a synopsis for the dudettes this week.  Here we go…


Michael Johns

  • Go Your Own Way – Fleetwood Mac
  • Wrong song, can’t sing it, I really didn’t like it.
  • Jason Castro

  • Hates doing interviews – Dude you better get used to it.
  • I Just Want to be Your Everything – Andy Gibb
  • Don’t even think of doing a Gibb family song if you can’t do the high
    notes, and you can’t. I do like that he plays a guitar, but damn, is this a
    classic from the seventies with an acoustic guitar you should be trying to
    pull off?
  • Luke Menard

  • Killer Queen – Queen
  • Singing was okay but dude, can you at least try to be a performer? How
    do you do that – you work the stage. Quit standing there.
  • Robbie Carrico

  • We don’t really care that you drag race cars.
  • Hot Blooded – Foreigner
  • He just sounds boring as hell. There’s no inspiration in the
    performance. For me he was lame.
  • Danny Noriega

  • Don’t You Remember You told me you loved me Baby? – The Carpenters
  • What the hell is going on? Can’t any of these dudes be a performer? And
    he couldn’t sing the song well, either. Maybe the judges heard something
    else, but on my TV it was lame.
  • David Hernandez

  • Papa was a Rolling Stone – The Temptations
  • So far he’s the best performer out of the boys, but he dances like a,
    well, he doesn’t have soul. Singing-wise he was alright.
  • Jason Yeager

  • Long Train Running – The Doobie Bros.
  • He at least is trying to be a performer, but it doesn’t look genuine.
    Everything seems to be wrong with the song choices, or the fact that we
    don’t give a damn about he 70’s anymore.
  • Chikezie

  • I Believe to My Soul – Ray Charles
  • Did a hell of a lot better than last week. Seems to be coming into his
    own and might be a force to be reckoned with if he can keep it up. Still
    likes busting on Simon though, which might be fun.
  • David Cook

  • We don’t care that you’re a word nerd.
  • All Right Now – Bad Company
  • Did okay, but it’s hard to be a rocker with the "American Idol" band as
    your backup. Needs to work it more.
  • Dude, don’t bust on Simon. Chikezie is starting to quip with Simon well,
    but you just sound like an ass.
  • David Archuleta

  • He’s got everything working for him – the boy band looks, the voice, and
    the "I’m so humble attitude.
  • Imagine – John Lennon
  • Unless he screws up royally, or one of the hot dudettes gets millions of
    dudes to vote, he pretty much has thing already wrapped up. Somehow he made
    "Imagine" his own, and that’s not an easy thing to do.
  • Some of the dudes showed they might have a chance in this thing, but a lot of
    them still don’t know how to pick a song.  If next week is about the 80’s,
    at least some of the songs might have been put out after these dudes were born.

    That’s it for this one!
