This is the performance that has pre-occupied my mind all week. On Sunday, February 3rd, Jennifer Hudson and 26 angelic children from Sandy Hook Elementary School gave a beautiful and emotionally-charged performance of America The Beautiful at the Superbowl XLVII. Included with the choir members was young Nate Wheeler, brother of one of the victims, […]

I thought Wednesday’s show was very good. Many excellent singers were showcased while minimizing the vocally-challenged ones. Thank you producers! You are finally listening to us! It appears that we are going to be inundated with many excellent female vocalists this season. And they are unique – which is what many of us here in […]

So, what did you think of last week’s premiere shows for American Idol Season 12? Not too shabby, I must say. So far, the judging panel exhibits a high degree of spark and chemistry which I hope will translate to the singers without obliterating the focus on their singing talent. Because, after all, this is […]

By Pamela Pike and Rosanne Simunovic Pamela Pike’s Recollections It is a show tune from the 1959 Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music and the movie with Julie Andrews in 1965. It was themed as an inspirational piece, to encourage people to take every step towards attaining one’s dream. The muse […]

It was hard for me to add this blog topic this week. The tragic events at Sandy Hook Elementary School have left me despondent and disheartened. However, maybe a little music and craziness – the good kind – will put a little smile in our hearts and on our faces. A little one. So, in […]

The Top 4 are scheduled to perform on The X Factor Wednesday on Fox from 8:00 – 10:00 P.M. with the results to be revealed on Thursday at 8:00 P.M. I guess each act will be performing two songs apiece. Otherwise, this will be the longest show in reality show history. I can’t wait to […]

December 11, 2012 7 Comments
Well that was quite the Performance Show last evening, wasn’t it? All four singers came out fighting and, overall, the performances were pretty even across the board. Young Trevin Hunte faltered a bit, I thought, and I was upset for him. And, from the look on his face, he knew that his performance was not […]

The Top 6 are scheduled to perform on The X Factor Wednesday on Fox from 8:00 – 10:00 P.M. with the results to be revealed on Thursday at 8:00 P.M. This show leaves me speechless sometimes. And this is one those nights. Except, someone sent me a link re Emblem 3. Did you know that […]

Is anyone except me not surprised that Team Christina has zero singers left in this competition? As soon as Top 8 Finalist, Dez Duron, signed on with her Team, it was game over. She doesn’t play fair and, indirectly, disses the other judges and their singers. As a result, the fans ignore her and her […]

The Top 8 are scheduled to perform on The X Factor Wednesday on Fox from 8:00 – 10:00 P.M. with the results to be revealed on Thursday at 8:00 P.M. Honestly, I don’t know what to say about this show anymore. I really don’t. The majority of the singers’ vocals are so off pitch that […]

On Monday evening, 18-year-old Trevin Hunte performed a stellar, jaw-dropping performance of Whitney Houston’s “The Greatest Love Of All”. Thankfully, Trevin returned to his roots. It is when Trevin performs this soulful genre of music that he truly excels . His voice is so rich, fluid, passionate and expressive that he can go places where […]

Well, from where I sit and type, this is shaping up to be a pretty amazing Top 8 show. And it looks like one of Cee Lo Green’s singers might win this thing, although Blake Shelton’s singers will give him a run for the money. However we should not cross Team Christina’s remaining singer, heartthrob, […]
