Wasn't it Bing [&:]



Memaw. -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 4:25:11 PM)

Doink,
I thought it was Bing, but someone else thinks it was Frank.[8|]

I do remember the rooster doing the B-b-b thing like Bing did. [;)]

ETA sarcastic smaces. [:)]



doinkdom -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 4:26:44 PM)

I can only remember Bing being a cartoon.

bing being [&:]

ok that just sounds weird[;)]



Memaw. -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 4:29:11 PM)

LOL

I tried tubing the crooner from Foghorn but can't find it.



doinkdom -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 4:40:23 PM)

found this on wikipedia so it seems that both were used I guess[&:]

I'm not convinced it's the same cartoon episode though that we're talking about.



Memaw. -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 4:58:57 PM)

The one I am thinking about has a long necked skinny rooster draping himself around the microphone stand while the hens just oohh and ahh over him.

Reminds me of David A.[8D]
(See how smoothly I got this back on topic?)[;)]



doinkdom -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 5:00:34 PM)

that's the one I was thinking of, but I could only find the one reference to the other cartoon.

oh well...I do agree with you.[;)]



NickDaddyo -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 5:54:28 PM)

Alrighty, all of the songs are in, so here's a complete spoiler update!

* Judge's Choice (Simon): "The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face" by Roberta Flack
* Producer's Choice: "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith


Syesha Mercado

* Contestant's Choice: "Fever" by Peggy Lee
* Judge's Choice (Randy): "If I Ain't Got You" by Alicia Keys

David Archuleta

* Contestant's Choice: "With You" by Chris Brown

* Producer's Choice: "Longer" by Dan Fogelberg



VisitorinWaiting -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 6:09:01 PM)

David Cook's songs...all except the one picked by Simon...all I can say is Wow, wow!!!! I can't wait to hear it!!!



Memaw. -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 6:58:54 PM)

It should be a good show.[:)]



stateofgrace -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 9:04:08 PM)

OK...here's my take:

It's likely going to be a David/David final. And it's David Cook's to lose.

It's a good final three - all three have talent. David A's got the raw talent (and a lot of it, vocally) but not the performance level the other two have.

It wasn't Syesha's best night, and I think the combination of that fact and that the two guys have very enthuiastic fan bases will have her leaving tomorrow night. However - she's still very, very talented and will likely have a great future in the business.

I'm sorry that David Cook didn't bat Switchfoot out of the park, but it was great to hear the good crowd reaction regarding him singing a Switchfoot song.

I know people call David A "Archie" as a play on his last name. My new nickname for him is "Beaver" as in "Leave it to..."



buckifn -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 9:14:03 PM)

nobody impressed me tonight..Syesha did just what I expected played the sex card, David A was the usual geek, and David C was predictable.

I guess I was expecting more at this stage of the game and am let down that there is nobody to really "wow" us...unless you are the 12-14 yr old crowd.



stateofgrace -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 9:18:25 PM)

I did like David Cook's last outfit. Major geek funky cute. It was almost Tenth Doctor worthy.

Before I begin, I have nothing against David A. As I said in an earlier post, I like a broad range of music and am open to listening to all types and enjoying most of it. BUT all of David A.'s songs sound the same. He had a hard time with a "different" song tonight because he's not got the range of talent in different genres. So, I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you on the raw talent vocally...sure, he can sing SOME songs well...but so can I, and I'm definitely NOT a singer. I think we all saw tonight that when he's given a different type of song to sing, he doesn't
"blow it out of the park" as he is so well known (although I disagree) for. But, I do agree that he does not have a performance level either...

I do think he'll win though, unfortunately...because of all of his tween & teen following...but my little fingers will be pushing all the buttons to help him NOT to win. Not just that, but to help David C. to win!



babbred -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/13/2008 10:09:13 PM)

I actually liked Syesha's rendition of "Fever," so I guess that makes me an old fogey. [8D][8|] Sadly, however, I think that it will be the two guys in the final, just because they each have their own fan base. The judges have veered back and forth between anointng each David as the winner this season, so naturally they will duke it out in the final. I'll cry if David A wins, though.


Speaking of crying, what the heck did David C do to my favorite song, "Miss a Thing"? Those strings dragged the tempo down and made it sound like elevator music. Yuk. [:'(]



gaylel1 -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/14/2008 12:05:16 AM)

Syesha is a loser. Plain and simple. The sex card will not work, not in middle America because they have this sterotype of people of color and this is another reason that this girl is a Withney/Beyonce wanna bee who will not make it in this business.



VisitorinWaiting -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/14/2008 8:11:11 AM)

Okay people...help me out please. I am not one of those who runs to the nearest place online that "determines" who the winner is and who the winner is not...BUT I did happen to come across dail idol last night...and out of curiousity, checked it out this morning. According to that, David C. has 32, David A. has somwhere in the 20s... If I add those together, I get ALMOST 60% of the vote...which means that Syesha would actually have more votes than either of them. Am I reading this site right? Can you believe that Syesha would have the most votes this week?!??

edited to add: I went to the site to look for my answers and found that they now have all three "scores" posted...and Syesha is at the bottom with 15... So, tell me...why do these numbers not add up to 100%...do they only know 70% of the vote, so the other 30% is left out to keep us with some suspense...although, I think we all pretty much knew before the singing last night that it would come down to David vs. David.



jodavi -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/14/2008 8:42:19 AM)

If you look on dialidol....the most important is who's on green and who's red. The red shows 'predicted to be voted off' The green means safe. They've been inaccurate most of the times lately but when it comes to the final 4 ...pretty much been accurate (well...except I believe when Daughtry was voted off). So just look on color coded thing and you can almost assume who's going home tonight.
In addition, I don't think they do by percentage...it just shows score...whatever that means.

played the sex card
??????? One miniskirt and she's playing the sex card???? Sorry, but I think that's a bit extreme. Especially in the context of the song she was singing (Fever). And congratulations, Gayle, You almost made it all season without bringing up the race issue. Almost.

Simon said it a while back, if it stays a talent contest David Cook wins it hands down. Unfortunately it isn't all about talent, so the teenie tweenie vote will probably hand the thing to David Archuleta. And another "winner" will tank on cd sales while the runners-up go gold.

I'm 'assuming' that it does not include text voting.



redeemedsaint -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/14/2008 9:09:56 AM)

I think all three did very well last night, but Syeesha will be going home because both David's have a very strong fan base.

You are probably right. The only season that I have totally missed was Season 1. All of the others I have watched pretty much the whole way through. Anyway, I have had a favorite every season, and then a second favorite. My second favorite has won ONCE...Taylor Hicks...with my favorite that seaon being Daughtery... Jason was actually my favorite this seaon, with David Cook running a closer second even than Taylor Hicks... Anyway, I doubt that David Cook will win because somehow America never agrees with me. LOL Yet, I continue to watch!! [sm=hammerhead.gif]

Having never heard the song I will ask anyone who may have: Is it my imagination or was David's performance of "With You" completely off the beat?

My son was singing the song as David sang last night and he mentioned that David A missed most of the lower notes.



gaylel1 -> RE: American Idol Season 7 (5/14/2008 9:48:55 AM)

I think this season was one of the worse ever. With the exception of some, I don't think none of these people will ever sell records than those the previous years. And that's includes David A.
