36 million votes, which means I have already lost my first bonus point question on predictify.
Tonight we will get a Stevie medley and a Smokey/Joss duet.
Obligatory recap ensues. With crayons. (Or as Ryan says, “crowns.”)
Medley! Medley! And while I love the effort, I want real singing. That was way over-produced, and not only was it lip-synced, but I’m pretty sure pre-recorded (did you see the way they cut to Adam near the end?) Why? WHY? Can’t we just kick it old school like this medley? Or maybe this one?
After the break, the Ford Commercial to Pocket Full of Sunshine. It was pretty blah this week. But next, and not so blah, is Ruuuuuuben, singing his new single.
Now, on to the killings:
Adam is up first, and is most certainly safe. Matt is up next, and he is in the bottom three. WTF? I guess the Dead-man’s spot will really do it to you. Kris is up next, and gets faked out by Ryan, but is safe.
Lil and Michael both stand up together. Lil, despite choosing to sing the unlucky Heatwave, is safe, which sends Sarver to the bottom 3.
After the break, a (surprisingly) live performance by Joss Stone and Smokey Robinson. It was pretty good, but not exciting. I am guessing by the order they are sitting on the couches that it will come down to Allison and Megan, sending Megan across the stage. We’ll see if I am right.
Wrong. Allison goes first, and is safe. Then Ryan switches to the other end with Anoop, who is safe. Danny Gokey (Gokey Dokey!) is up next, who is safe, as well. This leaves Megan and Scott. And Scott is sent to center stage. Megan is safe.
And as soon as he is sent center stage, he is sent back to the couches, because he is still safe. After the break, we get Stevie Wonder singing some sort of medley. I hope Ken Warwick has enough faith in him to not pre-record his performance.
Stevie Wonder sings his medley, and the antics by both Kara and the kids were hilarious. Danny and Anoop’s enthusiastic dancing. I’m not sure that Allison knew any of the songs. But the best part was Megan’s pseudo narcoleptic moves at the end. It was like she fell asleep and was startled back to reality, and the camera caught the best facial expression. That’s so Megan!
And finally, the results. The person with the lowest votes tonight is Sarver.
OUT TONIGHT! Michael Sarver
He sings his swan song, and the judges to not choose to save him, even though they had so much fun dancing that they couldn’t make a decision. These judges’ antics are too much for me.
Michael seems happy. At last he will get to spend some time with the kids before he returns to LA in May.
Well, this was inevidable for me. Thoughts?
