Wow, that was certainly interesting. Thanks for the history lesson. I didn't know all of this stuff. I bears repeating though. Sinatra was in a class by...
I'll recheck the biography that I read this stuff in....but I know for sure that girls were paid to swoon and faint and carryon! I'll get back to you, and...
Kids have always been paid to "swoon". Nowadays record labels even pay people to invade/infiltrate chat groups and the like. Street teams promote new...
You are so knowledgable, I have to apologize to you for my earlier statements. The book I had read was the unauthorized biography by Kitty Kelly. I went to...
THE FINAL FIVE! Last week, the American Idol ride finally came to an end for John Stevens. Bad timing too, what with Big Band night on deck this week. Speaking...
Kitty Kelly? Anything written by her needs to be thrown in the trash heap. She wrote a very hateful Sinatra bio! rose <rosebow@...> wrote: You are so...
It should be one of the more interesting weeks. I think big band stuff isn't easy for lots of today's singers, as it seems to require more "singing sweetly"...
Fantasia might surprise you Tuesday, remember she had probably her best week when she sang Summertime so sweetly. Will probably go down as one of the best AI...
Sinatra was in a class by himself. My son (who is 18) LOVES Sinatra, has some of his CDs and has sung his songs when auditioning for musicals. The older...
Whee-doggy! It's Big Band night! We all know what that means...swing, jazz & jive, great vocals, lots of horns & drums. Each finalist is singing 2 songs...
...frankly I thought the only contestant who did justice to the songs was Latoya. George was flat and uninteresting. Heck, Louie Armstrong, a trumpet player...
George is so sweet, but his talent (????)>>>> Fantasia was singing 'summertime' last night .. not so good, unfortunately. And that was a surprise. ... From:...
My dear Dawn ... as hateful as what Kelly wrote, is as hateful as Sinatra could be. I have a friend who was his N.Y. chauffer... Let's leave it at that, my...
Sinatra was indeed a complex individual. Grew up on the streets of Hoboken, NJ, which was (and still is) a working class small city. He owed alot of his...
First off I was surprised that they let them choose some songs that I wouldn't consider big band especially the queen song. What a Wonderful World was ...
Did anybody else think Paula was just bizarre last night. First of all, her face looked like Michael Jackson's. Well, that's hyperbole, but it did look...
I tried to open it & there was a virus in the attachment. Maybe her computer got infected. azhodges2003 <azhodges@...> wrote:Sky, What's this about a fax...
Yes, she was stranger than usual. Not quite sure what that was all about. Maybe she hit the bottle before the show. mary russell <mrussell5111950@...>...
I only noticed that she had her mike jammed into her throat and it was pushing on her voice box, so at one point you could not hear (understand) what she was...
I think that George will be going home. He just can't compete with the ladies. Kecia S <feisty_one_2@...> wrote:Whee-doggy! It's Big Band night! We all...
I knew it was a virus right away and deleted it. I received two. One saying a site change and then the other a fax message. Guys be careful what you open,...
MR, I cried after Fantasia's song too, and I wasn't hitting the bottle, I swear I wasn't! LOL! mary russell <mrussell5111950@...> wrote:Did anybody else...
Nice recap as usual Kecia. I agree with Simon Latoya and Fantasia are head and shoulders above the rest, then IMHO George, and then Di and Jazzy. Bye-bye...
Oh please, it was not as emotional as when she first did it, but it was still beautiful. George is talented, maybe he just can't do the genres, and he was...

Okay, okay, maybe the crying was understandable. I don't think so, but it's possible I'm wrong. I am wrong sometimes. But she was STILL very odd. Go...
