Yes, American Idol is back!! As of now, Sway, the Filipino is out...but I don't really care. He wasn't one of my favorites, but he was good. Just not great.
My favorites this time around are Chris Daughtry and Bucky Covington.
I was so blown away from the very start with Chris with his cover of "The Letter" and right then and there I knew I'd be rooting for him. But I checked his page in the AI website, and he says his fave male artist is Rob Thomas. Eww. (He was only good when he was in Matchbox 20.)
With Bucky, I really liked his cover of "Simple Man," and the song he sang this week. I like the way his voice sounds. Francine says he looks weird, but I don't care about looks. Haha.
With the girls, I don't really have a favorite. I really liked Kelly Pickler at the very start, but her vocals doesn't really amaze me. Paris Bennett sings very well...I liked her "Wind Beneath My Wings." I also liked Katharine McPhee the first week.
It's sad David Ratford had to go...'cause I really liked him in the auditions. But I agreed with Simon that when he wanted to do those kinds of songs, he had to be confident and have charisma. Otherwise, it won't sound good or it won't project well.
I guess I also like Elliot Yamin's voice...but he looks so weird! Weirder than Bucky!
In addition to American Idol, the new season of the Amazing Race is FINALLY here!! I've been waiting for this 'cause now they get to travel all over the world. In the premiere episode, they went to Brazil...so I can't wait for what's in store next week!
