Which is probably why TPTB refused to let Adam sing it. lolz I've liked Matt since his audition, but he really does need his piano. They need to bring in an upright, so he can still move around some while he does his thing. He's got potential, but he's just not quite there yet.

How do you avoid sounding karaoke when you're singing to backing tracks? Adam's TV performance with the acoustic guitar was stunning. The recording is good, but doesn't make you catch your breath. Lil sounded awesomely retro with the Vandellas. Much better than TV. I liked Kris, who sounded cool and relaxed. And I think I figured out Matt's problem. "Let's Get It On" is total sex.

Matt just had the pimp spot next week. And I do believe that he was in the bottom 3. Ryan specifically said "these are your bottom 3 based on your votes". It's ALL in the semantics. Matt went first. He really was overhyped. He did NOT have a good vocal, at least good enough to warrant "frontrunner comments". That and...well...it's the vote split...and it's nasty this year. Bottom line, I think they'll give the pimp spot to someone else other than Matt. Next week should be fun for the contestants. Matt needs to sing better. Seriously...he has a LOT of pitch issues...about 1/4 of note flat or sharp either way. Just not good enough to me. Scott needs to go. Megan could have a GREAT week if she chooses wisely; something by Nelly Furtado or Natasha Bedingfield would be good for her. Even Amy Winehouse. Anoop needs to be bring up the energy. I think he should go with new school R/B...something that shows what he can do...an upbeat song of course. Gokey needs to stop being a dork. He can sing pretty much anything...he just needs to work on the smarminess. I didn't see it before. I see it now. Kris would sound amazing with "How to Save A Life" by the Fray, should they release it. Adam can sing anything. I'm not concerned about him at all. Lil...well...she probably will take something from Beyonce's catalogue. She can't help herself. And Allison...well...I'm going to go out on a limb here...I always thought that Rhianna's song, Umbrella, would sound AMAZING as a ballad...just a singer with a cool sounding voice and a guitar. It's a young song, could be stripped down. And I think Allison has the type of vocal texture that could make the song even better than it is. We'll see.

He will get the pimp spot next week.
