So it’s Andrew Lloyd Webber night tonight, I think this is a make or break night for Jason, Carley, and Brook. The 3 who are going to find the evening the easiest will be Syesha and the 2 Davids.
I’ve been thinking over ALW’s song list and think that the idols will do really well if they opt for these choices.
First off all girls should stay FAR away from “Phantom of the Opera.” None of them have the vocal chops to even try Christine. That out of the way - here are the musicals where I think the idols should pick songs from. Also everyone should stay FAR away from “Cats.”
1) David Archuletta - he should pick something out the “Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat” songbook. With his big voice I think he’d do great w/ this musical – the musical is not too dark and its uptempo which is something that I think he needs to explore again in order for him to step up and remind everyone of his range. He’s been picking songs every week that sound similar, I think picking something f
rom “Joseph” would be a great choice for him because the songs from that list should challenge him vocally but not be too “big.”
2) David Cook – “Music of the Night” from “Phantom of the Opera”…even though I would’ve preferred Michael singing this, David is the one person left in the competition who can take this huge emo song and make it even MORE emo. This isn’t a week for him to be shy – he needs to tackle the biggest song of the night and run with it to remind everyone why he’s the forerunner on the show.
3) Jason Castro - If he’s smart he’ll pick something from “Evita” - the songs have a Latin sound and I think
he could do anything from the songs that Antonio Bandares sang in the film and will do fine. Other than that, I have no idea what Jason could sing, his voice isn’t a real match for most of ALW’s music, I think out of everyone this week, he’s going to have the hardest time finding something.
4) Syesha - there are 2 songs that I’m pretty certain she will pick - she will either pick “Memory” or “Don’t cry for me Argentina.” I’m hoping that she’ll pick the latter. Memory is WAY overdone and is too big for her vocal range…although I think she probably could pull it off. I love Syesha when she really emotes w/ her singing and I think she’d be just magical doing “Don’t cry for me Argentina.” If there’s one Diva who’s range she can match it’s Madonna. She would kill with that song.
5) Carley - Carley needs to pick something from “Sunset Boulevard.” Glenn Close originated the big lead part in the musical on Broadway and her voice is right in Carley’s range. She can pick a big song from there a
nd do well. If she picks “Memory” or something from “Phantom” I think she’ll fall on her face.
6) Brook – There’s a musical that ALW did very early in his career where there’s a song in it that would be PERFECT for Brook. The song is “Tell me on a Sunday, Please.” Brook can sing this on the piano, it’s not well known and as a result so she could own the song. I have a copy of it on an ALW compilation CD and it’s one of my favorite songs that he’s written. The song is all melody and lyrics and I think she’d just do beautifully with it – it could be the song to put her back into the hunt in the competition.
Anyways that’s my thoughts on things for tonight. I’m excited about tonight – if the kids pick the wrong songs they’ll all really fall flat. The thing I’m worried the most about is the kids picking songs that are too big for their vocal range. There are plenty of middle of the road songs that they could pick that will fit their voices – we’ll just have to see if they chose wisely or not.
MORE reasons I have DirecTV- ocassionally my local FOX affiliate will have broadcasting issues and HD programming does not broadcast in HD but usually my paid cable stations like SCIFI HD and TNT HD and my fave HDNet all come through in bright shining HD without any problems. I have a 65 inch HD CRT TV so I notice when a signal is not HD.
Article from AP
MINNEAPOLIS - In Brent Swanson’s basement home theater, there should be nothing drab about “Battlestar Galactica.” He’s got a high-end projector that beams the picture onto a wall painted like a silver screen, and speakers loom in the corners, flanking two big subwoofers.
Yet when he tuned in to Sci Fi HD for a recent episode filmed in high definition, the image was soft and the darkest parts broke up into large blocks with no definition. Explosions, he said, were just dull.
“It kind of looked like they took the standard definition and just blew it up,” said Swanson, a 33-year-old graphic designer and videographer who subscribes to Comcast Corp.’s service. “I couldn’t really tell if what I was seeing was really better than what I saw on regular television.”
As cable TV companies pack ever more HD channels into limited bandwidth, some owners of pricey plasma, projector and LCD TVs are complaining that they’re not getting the high-def quality they paid for. They blame the increased signal compression being used to squeeze three digital HD signals into the bandwidth of one analog station.

Death in the City?
America’s four-year abstinence from “Sex and the City” will end in May with the HBO hit’s big screen debut — and actress Cynthia Nixon is fueling a giant rumor that is spreading faster than news of a Manolo Blahnik half-off sale! “Miranda” may not have let it slip that one of our beloved New Yorkers will bite the big one, but she didn’t deny it — and here’s the YouTube.com proof!
She is really relaxed and funny - the interviewer asks her about being a lesbian and her reply is classic.
Check out more with Cynthia in this month’s issue of More magazine- she is on the cover!
