A - They needed to show what total crap was done to their song.

B - Picky BS, not related to the subject at hand in any way.

Bland looks, bland voice, stripper past, clearly no major fan base.

Chalk it up to a general prejudice against old-fashioned rodeo music. It was a brave and successful risk, since KL Cook had largely been indistinguishable from the other bland blondes (including the still wretched Brooke White) as the Top 24 dwindled. Next week, she'll do a safe, boring, unoriginal performance and get sent home.

Which I wouldn't be too sad about, since I'm (foolishly) hoping for a Ramiele-Chikezie Final Two (a slap in the face to this year's overwhelming whiteness, and a Top 24 straight out of an Abercrombie and Fitch catalog). Ramiele is one Jordin-Sparks-singing-I-Who-Have-Nothing moment away from being a major contender, if she could get past her shy, skittish stage presence.

A) They didn't link directly to it (though in their defense, not a "Fox-approved," high quality rip), and

B) If they didn't have obnoxious embedded audio on their homepage.

"CAKE feels completely violated by Ford and American Idol's decision to use our song in a bizarre and un-funny Ford car commercial without our permission."

I love the song, but it's essentially rapped, not sung, and it sounded especially dumb coming out of 12 voices.

No need to apologize. I'm spending my morning reading music blogs about AI. I'm lucky I can still breathe through my nose.

The name "Adams" must be tatooed on my brain or something, as I made the same mistake a few weeks ago when I called Amy Davis "Amy Adams".

Brooke Adams was my first on-screen boob, c. "Dead Zone" in 1983. Pretty sure it was a boob-double, though. Still, please make a note of it.

D'oh!
