On Thursday, May 17th, Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips learned that they would advance to the Top 2 Performance Finale. When taking into consideration the performances during this week’s Top 3 Performance Show, it was a bit of a shocker to hear that Jessica would advance.

May 17, 2012

Does anybody out there have any idea what is going on with this show this year? I thought for sure they wanted a female winner but after last evening’s performance show, it seems like a distant memory. It doesn’t take an expert to figure out that talented little Jessica Sanchez was railroaded this week when […]

May 17, 2012 4 Comments
Another musical icon has died. The great singing talent, Donna Summer passed away today at the age of 63 years after a battle with lung cancer, a disease she reportedly contracted after inhaling fumes from the horrific 9/11 attack. Horrible to read and even worse to type. I wonder how many others have suffered or […]

May 16, 2012 40 Comments
By: Rosanne Simunovic This week, our Top 3 performed three songs apiece – their Personal Choice, Judges’ Choice and Record Producer Jimmy Iovine’s Choice. This was, as expected, a very big week for this triumvirate. They were grandly treated to individual homecomings, where they had time to visit, perform and thank their hometown supporters. This […]

Spoiler Below: Picture Of Song Picks Below Article. Source: MJsBigBlog.Com Ugh! Just ugh! I am so underwhelmed with this show right about now. So many great singers were eliminated much too early in the competition (Shannon and DeAndre) or else unfairly treated until they were eliminated (DeAndre and Hollie). This is not to undermine the […]

You have to laugh or else you’ll cry. Recently Jennifer Lopez was interviewed on The JohnJay And Rich Morning Show. During this interview she was asked to select a Top 12 contestant she would sign to a recording contract if she had her own record label. Well, guess whose name popped out of her mouth? […]

My bet is on Katharine McPhee! It seems logical, somehow. However, because that choice seems too logical, perhaps the producers will opt for Megan Hilty. Ether way, it is one or the other. Boy, am I addicted to this show! Everything about it appeals to me – the actors, the storyline, the Broadway music and, […]

By: Rosanne Simunovic I will keep this short and sweet! This week’s Top 4 Performance Show was excellent. But where did the Big Band Theme disappear to? There was never a theme more entertaining and more challenging than that particular genre of music. The phrasing elements, the lyrical and melodic content, the expressive performing style […]

Sometimes – if not all the time – you have to let the chips fall where they may. No one – not even the winner himself – could have predicted the outcome of The Voice Results Show during Tuesday’s telecast. This season’s winner of The Voice, Jermaine Jones, poured his heart on the stage every […]

There was no better group number on The Voice Results Show Tuesday evening.

The absolute joy on the faces of the singers and […]

This week’s American Idol theme is so strange. California Dreamin? What does that mean? Is anyone actually going to sing the Mamma and Pappa’s song that goes by that name? Sounds like it would be a great group number – two guys, two girls = a current Mammas and Pappas group. However, according to Michael […]

Well, that was quite the finish wasn’t it? But, you know, the memory of Jermaine Paul’s Top 4 performances on the Monday’s edition of The Voice was nagging at me all day yesterday. There is no denying – he was outstanding on the Performance Show. Yes, he was melisma-crazy, but, hey, that’s what R&B and […]

What is going on with American Idol? They have seriously lost their footing on what constitutes an innovative singing show. For Randy Jackson to say “this is the best show on TV” at the end of the performance show a couple of weeks ago speaks to the “desperate times calls for desperate measures” approach to […]
