Well, it’s nice to know Smokey’s a real fan!! I liked the opening to tonight’s show. It’s the first different thing they’ve done in several years.
36 million votes came in last night --- still a little disgusting how many people vote in AI versus how many people vote in the presidential election.
Ryan reviewed the lame new rule and we watched a brief recap of last night’s show before we were, once again, subjected to the dreaded group sing. AI producers admitted today that the contestants are lip syncing to a pre-recorded track during this segment of the show --- something about not enough time to fully learn a new song with choreography. Hmmm. . .
This week’s Ford video was to "Pocketful of Sunshine" – cute and clever.
Ruben performed his latest single "Together". Somebody call Captain Kangaroo and let him know his jacket has been located --- on Ruben Studdard.
Ryan asked a few questions about their trip to Motown, then launched quickly in the results.
Adam: safe.
Matt: in the bottom three. Certainly not the way I thought this was going to go.
Kris: safe. (psych!)
Lil and Michael were then asked to stand up: Lil is safe. Michael is in the bottom three.
Smokey and Joss Stone sang "You’re the One for Me". I enjoyed listening to them separately, but they did NOT sound good together.
Allison: safe.
Anoop: safe.
Danny: safe.
Scott and Megan were asked to stand. Scott: in the bottom three. Things are really not going the way I thought they would.
Scott is sent back to the couches, safe.
As they went to commercial break, I was convinced that Michael had to be the one going home. But, then I remembered the Daughtry Debacle, and realized that Matt very well could be sent home tonight.
Stevie Wonder performed a Motown medley: Ma Cherie Amour, Superstitious, Overjoyed, and All About the Love. Stevie’s voice has aged some, too, over the years, but at least it was obvious that he was singing live.
Michael and Matt were brought back to center stage: Michael has the lowest number of votes. He was asked to sing once more, a little chagrined that he had to sing right after Stevie, but gave it a valiant try. Unfortunately, when he was finished, the judges said goodbye.
