Syesha Mercado - Got To Get You Into My Life

June 20, 2008

She did pretty well on the studio version compared to her life performance. She was stiff and nervous back then. A lot of people predicted that she’ll be voted off since she was consistently in the bottom three. But she proved a lot of people wrong.

Michael Johns - It’s All Wrong But It’s Alright

June 13, 2008

Though I think Johns had the potential, I wasn’t really that impressed with him until he sang this song. That is why it came as a surprise to me when he was eliminated the week after.

Alexandrea Lushington - Spinning Wheel

June 6, 2008

America just found a new Idol. Since I am happy with the outcome, I decided to feature four songs/performances that impressed me during the show.

During Hollywood Week, Josiah Leming enjoyed more airtime than top 20 contestant Alexandrea Lushington. That’s why I was surprised when she performed Spinning Wheel. It was cool and it was funky.
