YOUR Q's FOR MY A's

There is a FAQ [MAIN] database in this website where you will find info on how to link to this website, answers to some tech problems found in pages within this website as well as a great feature where you can post questions in relevant categories & I'll answer them. Try it out!


SELECTED POSTS

This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is actually the index page of this website has grown into a huge database of my almost daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to my heart, including gossips of the most sordid kind. For your convenience, I have posted a list of posts which I thought is pretty informative in my own way that you might find interesting. The list itself may be long but those selected few are the ones I thought drives home the point I wanted to make. Do check them out in MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].


SERIES' SUMMARIES

Sometime in 2004 I began reviewing selected series in an episode by episode way, where I called these reviews EPISODIC THOUGHTS. These thoughts are mostly summaries of each and every episode with my opinion of that episode included in it as well. I may not provide the most in depth summaries but I am very proud of the fact that I could keep the writing on such a long winded basis each and every night for the entirety of the series. I don't do this for each and every series though because it kills a lot of brain cells, mine as well as fellow netizens who often joined in the discussion by posting informative stuff. These thoughts are still open for feedback and discussion. Do check them all out in REVIEWS where it is indicated with an  [E] next to my name.


OFFBEAT STUFF

There is this one section in here that features offbeat stuff that are not entertainment based. The section is known as FUNN STUFF [COMMENTS & OPINIONS].

 
PERSONAL FAVOURITES

There are 3 sections in here that contain my personal favourites of all kinds. THE DDGs [COMMENTS & OPINIONS] which features specially made websites by myself with info & all related stuff of my favourite stars or stars I like to talk about, MEDIA & MUSIC FILES [DOWNLOADS] which has my favourite VODs and music files, most of them are taken from Chinese & Korean dramas & movies and some of which I am hosting for my net friends and THE STORYTELLERS [WEBSITES], where you'll find stories written by amateur writers like you and I.

Do check them all out!

Tonight's theme was country and all were mostly bad or mediocre except for maybe one. I won't comment much since nothing to comment. Tonight's highlight was Paula being booed and Simon being clapped and admired. Interesting and all these happened during Paris' slot.

Truth be told, it was a bland night. Kenny Rogers was celebrity mentor and he was better than Stevie Wonder but the best was of course Barry Manilow. I realised they all sing ok when simply a piano accompanied them but the band was awful. THe theme was country but it might as well be dreary.

First up was Taylor Hicks and he was the worst. He didn't believe in his song, it was awful rendition of a popular song and of all the country music he could've chosen, he sang one he didn't quite like. He will be in the bottom 3 and I hope he will be because that will wake him up and choose better songs. He won't get kicked out though because his voice is still one of the best.

Paris sang Tricia Yearwood's song I think but maybe due to her age, she didn't channel her feelings into the song and it was boring. Slightly more interesting was Katharine but she was a bore on the stage however well she could sing a song. Listen to her on the radio and she's fine. I don't understand; she can sing, she's pretty but why do I find her oh so boring to watch? Mandisa was well not very good frankly. Kellie was interestingly very good but yes I am tired of her dumb act. Hey even Ryan asked her if the dumb act was real and she kinda confirmed that either she's so very good at pretending that she should be an actress or she is really dumb. Either option is not good for her.

The guy's were...well Elliott did well as in he sang well but the band was awful and thus made him sound almost awful. Most tonight felt like they were trying to catch up with the band. Please AI, change the bloody ochestra and band! Like I said Taylor was awful. Chris Daughtry, now having no one in particular to emulate and having to sing in his own voice was boring, bland and ordinary. One of the worst but the judges love him. Ace was surprisingly one of the better ones tonight, singing with emotions and yes that stare again. Of course he can't improve anymore, he has reached his plateau in this competition but tonight was his best performance I'd say.

Last but not least, Bucky. In my opinion, the best of the lot tonight and gave one of his best performance, if not the best. He sang a very very popular contemporary song that I never knew was a country song. The original singer sang it straight and Bucky should have angst it a bit like he always did but he didn't except towards the end and it was wholly original and definitely so very well done. I loved his version although again he has a tendency to mumble, which he did for a sentence or two but mostly he was coherent tonight.

I saw the earlier segment where they were all singing and Bucky was playing the guitar. I feel it is time AI should stop the manufactured original talent so to speak, as in you can sing your way but must conform to certain rules. I feel it is time to let the contestants either chose to play their own instrument (like Bucky playing the guitar, Taylor the guitar, etc) or sing accompanied by their chosen instrument, like the piano where I bet Elliott will sound great. I have had it with that stupid noisy intrusive band and ochestra.

My prediction of the bottom 3? A feeling it could be Bucky (I know he will go through because he was great), Elliott, Taylor (give him a jolt to buck up) or maybe Katharine and I hope, I hope Chris Daughtry so as to wake him up.

I think Katharine can get booted, or even Bucky (OH NO!) or even Ace or well...very difficult to predict. I don't know, I really don't know. I just hope that person is not Bucky, Taylor or Elliott. The rest can just go home.

PLEASE SAVE TAYLOR, BUCKY AND ELLIOTT!!
