Tracy's World

Tonight was Rolling Stones night on American Idol. The top twelve sang and I have to say it was all kind of boring. It doesn’t seem like this year’s talent is above bar. You would think that this far into the competition the contestants would be kicking it into high gear, but I just wasn’t feeling it tonight However, through my disappointment, two stars were brilliant, Siobhan and Crystal.

Siobhan Magnus rocked the stage with “Paint It Black”. She came out in a gorgeous black dress, black combat boots and a hot new hairstyle. She looked like a star. She was dramatic and soft then rocked it with vocals that reminded me of Adam Lambert. Those high notes, wow! Kara stated, “I’m having flashbacks of Adam Lambert. It was the standout performance of the night.”

This year’s singer to beat closed the show. Crystal Bowersox with her bluesy vocals and acoustic guitar sang “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.” It wasn’t her best performance, but Crystal was at ease on stage and her personality was coming through. Simon commented that Siobhan outperformed Crystal with her dramatic flair.

In my opinion, these two will be battling head to head throughout the season. What did you think of Tuesday night’s performances? Who killed it? Who blew it? What was your favorite? Who should go home? Leave your comments below.

This was tonight’s set up list:
Michael Lynche: “Miss You”
Didi Benami: “Play With Fire”
Casey James: “It’s All Over Now”
Lacey Brown: “Ruby Tuesday”
Andrew Garcia: “Gimme Shelter”
Katie Stevens: “Wild Horses”
