Canadian Idol!

I'm not impressed with any of them, but if I had to pick one it would be Suzi

Who got the boot? I was napping and missed it.....

Ashley Leitao got the boot tonight, i only watched the last 2 mins so I don't know who else was in the bottom three with her.

Darn was hoping that Daryl guy got the boot. Well maybe next week.

SPOILER!!













Was anyone else suprised when Ashley got voted out?

I don't know her name, but the blonde girl that sang god help us all, I thought should have been the one to go this week because her voice is very weak.

Is Rex the one from Nfld? I never really watched it until this year - there is a New Brunswicker in the running tho I have to admit while she sems to be a nice girl whose family (and entire town for that matter) is having some bad luck - company town where the company was closed down in large part thx top dogital cameras, she is a weak candidate and the odds of her winning are not great. - Anyway, I watched the first part to see if she would continue to hang on. She did - not even in the bottowm 3 much to that Judge's chagrin (Zack?) I think. I like the fellow from Nfld who is rated as number one to win by a gambling place - Suzi is no 2 but it is assumed because of her genre (a little too specialiozed, heavy metal or whatever), she will not win. I like Amber also and she is rated no. 3 by the bookies.

I watched two shows of the 1st Idol when Ryan Malcolm won - I was somewhat amazed that the fellow from NS came 2nd and now he performs on my hospital's telethon (Gary Beals - noce guy to talk to but I am not crazy about his music either, lol)

I do hope Casey will fo well butI hope either the Nfld contestant or Amber win (tho I agree she needs to sing something besides ballads!) And btw, I actually KNOW the host! He is a family friend. (but I think of him as a kid, lol)

So what did we think of last night?
I didnt like Josh's performance at all. I liked him the first time i saw him but now his "sound" is getting to me.
Rex could have done alot better, i didnt really like the song choice he made. Amber needs to get out of the slow songs. She did really good this week but she needs to take more risks. Casey surprised me tonight and showed me what she can do. Daryl did good but i still dont like him. Suzi didnt seem relaxed tonight, i usually vote for her but she didnt do it for me this time. Aaron did great! Mellisa surprised me, i think she did awsome and i voted for her. I didnt see it coming.

Hopefully things go well tonight

so....what did all my canadian peeps think?
I thought Casey was embarassing, Rex slaughtered Every Breath You Take.
I actually thought Darrell was pretty good this week, I liked that he kind of turned Tainted Love into his own thing.

I was disappointed with Suzi and have been for the past few weeks. I personally think she's getting too full of herself.

I really really liked Josh's performance, even though he's a bit wierd. He should go far in his career.

Zach is getting irritating, and Sass kind of is too.

Im really surprised that suzi was in the bottom two. I thought that she didnt do the greatest performance but not that bad. I do think it was Ambers time to go.

I was surprised too to see Suzi in the bottom 3 - I know Casey is not that great (in fact she is the choice of http://www.votefortheworst.com/canadian.html ) but I kind of feel sorry for her. She is shy and needs to sound like she is not at a small town pageant. I have yet to vote - bec I might have voted for Amber (tho she did not do well with that "Jesse James" song). I liked Melissa's rendition. There is one kid (and God help me for saying this as a peditrician - it is unprofessional!!) who acts a little unusual - to be diplomatic. Can't think of his name but he should go soon. I think Rex may win in the end but I also like Melissa and the kid from Sask too - tho he seems a littlr holier than thou for a teenager! Suzi does seem to want to win but as someone said, there is no one there that is truly gifted.

I was sorry to see Amber go - kinda felt sorry for her too. I guess the question is - would you buy someone's CD bec you felt sorry for them???

(But would I get up there and sing - I'd play guitar but that's it, lol - the extent of my singing was to play guitar at Mass (I am Catholic) and to play piano for my university chorus. We have a group at the med school we go out and sing around the Maritimes. I have not travelled with the group this yr - not enuf time but have attended a few presentations and sand or played piano.

Casey reminds me so much of Jewel. She even looks like her.

I kind of think the young boy Darell should win, because he has potential, and Canadian Idol would really allow him to grow.

The others are great, but if they got a record deal now they would be okay. Darrell needs more experience and exposure which is what Canadian idol could do for him, you know?

Rex is yummy but is not really that good when it comes down to it.

Which one is Darrell? The Sask kid?

i don't know where he is from, the really, really young one who looks like he's going to possibly cry every time he gets on stage! LOL. He wore a horrible blazer the other night.

Oops, just figured out who is - Nah, he is the one I find a little unusual. Not a bad singer but I would not vote for him. Rex is a tad showoff but he is from the Maritimes so I guess after Casey goes - and I like her, she is a sweet kid - but unless she really changes (and I think she does not plan to significantly change - she is shy and quiet by nature), I doubt that she will win. I think she has lots of potential tho! And yeah, she does remind me of Jewel. I also like her idealism - she seems to be the most genuine of the lot save maybe for Melissa and Amber. It seems western Canada is not voting? Am I the only one to notice that - I think that's why Suzi ended up in the bottom 3 and Amber was voted off (in Survivor speak), there were 2 from Calgary, divided loyalties from as part of the country not as tuned in to the show? I don't know - it'd be interesting to see the breakdown of the calls.

Suzi's being in the bottom will either make her angry or make her less egotistical and that should help her - I also wonder if her 'tude might be the reason for her being in that place?
