usually i’d be excited to have someone that was a past alum on the painel but this is a pretty meh choice. we don’t really need 2 country people at all. if you have carrie, you should ditch luke so this is a very dumb choice if they want a diverse cast imo. don’t really have high hopes for s23 but well at least s22 snapped.

finally found myself some time to watch the concert videos and i’m so proud of her!!! she needs to release burned ASAP, that’s a banger! kinda surprised by how many originals she already has in the works.
-
not a fan of the fade out at the end bc it’s not my favorite production choice but really digged everything else. the lyrics are beautiful and really well written (her lyricism already got so strong) and the adlibs on the final chorus are gorgeous.

yeah, abi owns the song when it comes to idol now. it was the idol moment of the season and one of the defining moments of the abc era, it was a game changer for her. i feel bad for sonika bc it was the only thing she was remembered for and now it kinda became abi’s quissential moment but she still did good. my ranking would be: abi >>>> sonika >>> angie > jena abi’s arrangement and vocals were by far the best, that opening always sends chills down my spine. sonika was good but i kinda hate how she finished the song and i also felt like she was trying too hard at the end. angie was good but the wind and her trying to keep her shirt from flying off was super distracting and jena’s was just weird. you would think the song would be perfect for her voice but for some reason it wasn’t.

OMGGGG new music, i wasn’t expecting her to release something this soon, excited to hear it!

Nick Fradiani - Season 14 Best Performance: Only The Good Die Young Round: Final 7 Theme: American Classics Nick is a decent winner who displayed good consistency inside his lane. But I also think he struggled with having moments and raising it above “competent” and “good” during the majority of his run. He doesn’t have any particular performances or a breakout moment that I would consider a must-see for Season 14 and I think that forgettable-feeling that I have attached to his time on the show hurts my perception of him overall. That isn’t to say that he’s bad. I think he earned his win (def the right choice out of him and Clark) and was a contestant who not only looked extremely comfortable and experienced on the stage but could also carry a tune vocally (he did struggle with breathing support and that would annoy me sometimes when he would fail to display stamina through his performances tho). But yeah, I don’t have a lot to say about him. I think his best performances were "Beautiful Life" and “Only The Good Die Young”, which turned out to be a stunning version of the song, and his worst one was definitely “Catching My Breath”, the song was too big for him and he struggled with pitch during the entirety of it. Overall he’s a winner that I can understand and even appreciate but that failed to truly excite me in any fashion. Performances ranking: 1. Beautiful Life (A) 2. Only The Good Die Young (A) 3. Thinking Out Loud (A-) 4. Maggie May (A-) 5. What Hurts The Most (B+) 6. Back Home (B+) 7. Signed, Sealed, Delivered (B+) 8. Man In The Mirror (B+) 9. American Girl (B+) 10. Wake Me Up (B+) 11.

sorry for the lack of updates on this. irl has been a whirlwind for the past week or so. i’m gonna try to get nick’s and trent’s write ups out of the way during this upcoming week tho! -
she’s snatching that best new artist award at the grammys next year. a superstar in the making for sure. atlantic records is looking like boo boo the fool for dropping her back in 2020 lmaoooo
-
kinda random but i've been a chappell roan stan ever since i came across pink pony club mid-pandemic in 2020 when she was a nobody so i'm over the moon with her smashing like she's currently doing right now (8 songs charting on spotify US, good luck babe about to become a top 10 hit on spotify global!!!!) bc i always thought she was something special even when she only had 2 songs out. i feel like that's my non-idol version of what it would feel like to have an idol contestant blowing up
-
no one is acting like that? jesus christ lmfaooooo y’all were obsessing over her “not booking any gigs” 2 days ago and writing essays about it so i think we’re entitled to be happy for her
-
i'm jealous of everyone that will attend the concert omg
-
Not her first concert being in a 11k venue. Queen sh*t
-
basically this. i stopped reading this thread bc people sound lowkey insane.
-
i actually think abi won in the worst possible final 3 combo she could’ve had (triston getting eliminated and no vote split from country voters happening at the finale). she got pimped with the billie thing but if she hadn’t delivered w her finale performances, i doubt that would’ve been enough for her to win.

Caleb Johnson - Season 13 Best Performance: Maybe I'm Amazed Round: Final 4 Theme: Breakups and Makeups I have weird feelings about Caleb. Vocally speaking, he’s probably one of the most impressive vocalists among the male winners of the show. The dude had really good control over his high register and range for days and he was on, he was really on. But I don’t think he necessarily gave me the consistency that I would like to see from him. I felt like after some time his performances started to sound predictable not only in how he would vocally arrange them but also in delivery, with some of the later rocker moments of his run coming across as too try-hard. I feel like he’s definitely a case of a winner that peaked too early and lost momentum during the latter half of the live shows. He first started off the voting rounds displaying a lot of vocal impressive showcases such as "Dazed and Confused" and interesting creative decisions (such as flipping Adele and Carrie songs into rock tunes per example) but during the 2nd half of his run, he mainly stuck to traditional rock songs and in a lot of them, he didn’t really bring anything new to it coming across as a tributes rock band vocalist. It doesn’t help that this uninspiring portion of his run with the exception of a few performances (such as "Maybe I'm Amazed, my favorite of his) were directly alligned with some of his worst vocals all season where he struggled with pitch on his lower register and came across as shouting in a lot of his big moments… and yes I know that he was fighting bronquitis and a vocal chords hemorrhage during the Top 3 week and Finale week and I felt really bad for him but he was already showing signs of vocal fatigue in the weeks prior to that (and him pushing his vocals really hard during those rounds was probably what lead to those healthy issues). Overall he's a winner that I can respect and understand its appeal with the people that supported him but I can't help but feel a bit underwhelmed about his win, Jena was so much more interesting and exciting. Performances ranking: 1. Maybe I'm Amazed (A) 2. Still Of The Night (A) 3. Dazed And Confused (A) 4. Undo It (A) 5. Skyfall (A-) 6. Sting Me (A-) 7. Gimme Shelter - With Jena Irene (A-) 8. Pressure and Time (A-) 9. Dream On (A-) 10. Beast Of Burden - With Jessica Meuse (B+) 11. It's Only Love - With Jena Irene (B+) 12. Family Tree (B+) 13. Stop Dragging My Heart Around - With Jessica Meuse (B+) 14. Faithfully (B+) 15. Chain Of Fools (B+) 16. Maybe I'm Amazed - Reprise (B+) 17. Travellin' Band (B) 18. Working Man (B) 19. The Edge Of Glory (B) 20. Dazed and Confused - Reprise (B) 21. Stay With Me (B) 22. Never Tear Us Apart (C+) 23. As Long As You Love Me (C) 24. You Give Love A Bad Name (C+) 25. I Don't Want To Miss A Thing (C-) 26. Demons (D) Winners ranking: 1. Candice Glover (Season 12) 2. Fantasia Barrino (Season 3) 3. David Cook (Season 7) 4. Kelly Clarkson (Season 1) 5.
