Oh Tony, get the hair out of your ears

Blake - I think Blake was a tad nervous tonight and his lack of confidence showed in his performance. I also think he was scared to disrespect Tony Bennett (my great uncle) and go against his recommendation to not beat box. That song was beggin' for a little refresher. Old Tony seems to be stuck in his time warp and just doesn't understand what these young ruffians are doing to the music these days.

Phil - Oh hey, for a minute there during his interview I thought he must have found his hair tonic 'cause we see a few sprouts coming in! But alas, he got a fresh wax just before the show. I think Phil must be Tony's secret grandson - stuck in the same time warp. Does that make him my cousin??? Wait... Rob Reynolds, you and Phil have the same barber! Or are you related? Hold it right there.. are we related???

Chris R - I think Chris upstaged Blake tonight.

Jordin - It was just aight for me. I can't figure out why Randy and Paula were so in love with her. I'm with Simon on this one.

Gina - A softer sweeter side of Gina. I thought it was a refreshing change and not too bad.

Sanjaya - Wait a minute. What did he just say? Did I just hear Tony Bennett say to Sanjaya "I'm a big fan of yours"??? Unc!!! What the F#&%!!!! Umm, maybe we are all wrong and Uncle Bennett is right. I give up. Sanjaya for President! Did you see the sign that said "Sanjaya is my Papaya". Isn't a papaya a fruit?

Haley - Way to bring the girls out again babe. Go with what's workin. It almost made me forget that missed high note. I actually didn't think it was too bad (other than the bad high note), but the judges did not do her any favors tonight.

Lakisha - I think this may not be a popular opinion, but is anyone else getting bored with Lakisha? I mean she sings great, but if I am to compare her to Melinda, Lakisha's performances just don't excite me as much as hers. Just fine for me.

Well, I'm sure you all have something to say, so don't be shy this week.

Little Tony
