stayin' alive... or not.

I'm not really sure what the theme on American Idol is this week (disco? ballad?), but it's a bad one -- and I don't particularly love ANY of the performances and it's very difficult to identify who's stayin' alive and who's goin' home this week. I can't really get over how generally terrible everyone sounds overall and these songs were just not very fun at all.

So it's down to beat boxing Blake and the three divas and after lots of fluff, a cameo by Jessica Alba (!), REALLY bad group singing, a very random performance by Pink, a very WEIRD performance by Barry Gibb and some (lots of) other junk... my adorable Blake is spared another week and it's bye-bye Lakisha. Was hoping she'd plant another smacker on Simon before departing, but no such luck. darn.

oh, and the yanks are FINALLY back up to .500! whew.
