American Idol notes

I have a good friend that I talk about American Idol with, and these are my thoughts on this week's performances:

Jason did 'Forever in Blue Jeans', which is my all-time favorite Neil Diamond song. He did a pretty good job, and it made me decide I need to put it back in rotation on my iPod. God, I love that song. David Cook did another great song, and did another great job with it. I really like him, and his voice a lot. I am sure he is your favorite at this point, and I am not far from agreeing with it. I think it is funny that Brooke chose to do a Monkee's song. I really didn't care for her performance. There was one shot of Simon looking bored out of his mind, and that kind of summed up how I felt about her performance. David A blew me away. I couldn't imagine anyone singing Sweet Caroline but Neil Diamond. Christ, his voice is like honey. I can't get over how rich the tone of his voice is. I didn't like Syesha's performance of Hello Again. It is a song rife with vulnerability, and I felt like she shouted it. And she was grinning the whole time. I think she missed the point of the song...

Paula is drunk. Oh god, so drunk. And it must be summer, because Simon is wearing his shirt open.

On the second go around, Jason butchered September Morn. David Cook was wise to choose lesser known songs. He was able to make both of them his own. He was awesome. Brooke did considerably better on the second song, but I still think she is going home this week. David A chose a song with big notes to show off the power in his voice. Finishing it out, well, Syesha might be going home instead. It will definitely be girl going home.

Enchanted by Enchanted

I watched the movie Enchanted tonight. I probably should be embarrassed to admit this, but I loved it. This is right up there with Moulin Rouge in the category of movies about love that just get to me.

This movie was absolute magic. If there is anything getting you down in life, trust me...watch this movie.

A long time

Well, it has been a long time since I posted anything. It might be time to start again.
