MELISSA DOOLITTLE: First night the chills did not come. Did an excellent job, but not as great as she has been. Solid, subtle, well sung, nicely done. No spark though. We did like the outfit tonight... hot dress.
LaKEISHA JONES: OK, maybe it is just the night...average performance. A very safe song from a vocal standpoint, a Karaoke standard. Sung well, but there was nothing special about it at all. She enjoyed herself and showed a little personality. She continues to coast, in our opinion.
CHRIS RICHARDSON: The music totally overwhelmed him during the beginning of the song...the chorus was a bit better, but did they go back down a key? He seemed to be overwhelmed even on the big notes. He added a bit of flavor near the end, which saved the entire performance.
HALEY SCARNATO: Next week, a bikini??? Is she doing a slow weekly strip??? OK, sorry Haley, you do NOT have the rhythm to pull of this tongue-twister of a song...and the big note.. raspy...train-wreck...the words need to be crisp to make the song work, she sounded like a drunk auctioneer.
PHIL STACEY: Ummm Phil, deal with it please....yes, it is J-Lo.. sheesh... I actually yawned as he sang, well until he hit that horrid note at the end. I was oh so bored with that. He sang the song, he never ever felt the song. A classic love song with heart...nothing to it.
JORDIN SPARKS: Sorry, maybe it is just us tonight. We did not feel any spark in this performance. Latin music is supposed to be.. hot....sizzling....on fire....have not seen it all night and still have not. Vocal was good, nothing spectacular.
BLAKE LEWIS: Someone teach him how to dress, we are back to shuffle board chic.... ugh...Actually liked his vocals, smooth and flowing...nice inflections on the notes. Overall, probably the best performance so far.
SANJAYA MALAKAR: The pimp spot tonight. What do all the guests see in him??? At least he has normal hair. Who taught him the Constantine eye glare??? Well, it hurts to say, but tonight he actually showed why he was selected to be on the show. BY FAR, his best performance since the auditions, and, besides Blake the most controlled of the night.

GOING HOME THIS WEEK:
Would love to say Haley, but the nearly naked will remain...
Enjoy the ride Phil.. you are outta here...
Had a great time with
Doc and
Jane tonight...if you missed the show, you can hear the archive at
BLOGTALK RADIO .
We spoke with
Peter Golenbock, author of
7: The Mickey Mantle Novel and then to
Santosh Hari, who discussed
Sanjaya (
dude he was so not good doing The Kinks...) and the phenomenon that is
Bollywood, the movie making enterprise in
Bombay, India.
Our friend
Anndi called in. If you didn't know, she and Doc have a "thing" LOL...lucky guy!
And then finally, Jane gave a couple of hints on how to seduce your man.
We added a few thoughts on this subject, from the man's point of view, however it was cut off the live feed... BUT.. it lives on the archive, so go check it out.
We tried not to step on Doc or Jane's toes too many times (
they are the hosts of course)...though we had one thing we wanted to discuss with Mr. Golenbock, and did not have a chance.
Thank you again to Doc and to Jane for allowing me the opportunity.THE COUCH may have some things to discuss on this subject in the near future.
