Jason Castro admitted that he had no idea “Memory” was sung by a cat. Despite it being in Cats. And despite him picking the song for Andrew Lloyd Webber night from, you know, the composer’s entire catalog. And Brooke White just pulled her second false start of the season, forgetting the opening words to “You Must Love Me”! I mean, we probably all figured that ALW night would be a bit trainwrecky, but who among us thought that the song from freaking Starlight Express would bring the best performance of tonight’s first half-hour?
OMG AMERICAN IDOL

I love Starlight Express…Rollerskates!!
@ObtuseIntolerant: This season would have improved if they were all on rollerskates.
@Nicolars: Jason Castro can barely stay standing during the group “dance” numbers….
@ObtuseIntolerant: Syesha went barefoot, alas. No skates.
Carly blew chunks.
Everything was shit.
I think if the producers really want to know why American Idol is losing popularity by the week, they can just keep a copy of tonight’s show running on a continuous loop in their offices.
This was terrible. Oh well, at least David Cook got to show once again that he hides a pretty great voice under that layer of Nickelcreedaughtry sludge. Also, this was terrible.
Am catching up with this the morning after. Be curious to see what you thought of the end – I thought the best two performances were the last two (and they’re both contestants I don’t particularly care for).
@Chris Molanphy: Agreed – though I thought that Carly took the easy way out by letting the backup singers do the heavy lifting on the choruses…
Seriously! Between ALW’s honesty with the contestants, everybody’s horrible performances and no one knowing what songs they’re singing…this is awesome. I can’t wait til David Cook strolls in with a guitar and Nickelbacks one of ALW’s favorites in front of him.
