Blake Lewis: Top 12 guys didn't 'blow it out of the water'
Wednesday night, we got our first real look into all of the dudes of American Idol Season 9. I was hoping they were all going to blow it out of the water, but it didn't happen. I was really disappointed at all the song choices the ladies brought to the stand on Tuesday. At least last night, the guys made much better choices.
The night started with Todrick Hall, whom I had high hopes for. He's a great performer, knows his stage and can sing. He did his own funky version of Kelly Clarkson's Since U Been Gone, and it was a good first look. The arrangement was kinda weird, but the band was lovin' it. Judges weren't feelin' the version however and hoped he would bring it harder next week. Me, too.
