RockStar INXS
Sep. 7th, 2005 10:26 pmWell Jordis Unga has been sent home. At this stage (the top five) it's not about who is the better singer (they're all excellent at this point) but who is the best fit for the band in both personality and singing style. I'm hoping that INXS and Dave Navaro are going to do a bit more than the very public declaration of being Jordis fans. Dave at least said that he will be making music with her in the future.
I adore Jordis. I have since the very first show (where she was the first performer we saw), but I have to admit the last few weeks have shown that, as awesome as she is, she's just not a good fit for the band. I'll be watching for her solo career though.
It's down to four now, Marty, Suzie, MiG, and JD. I think MiG will be the next to go (as much as I wish it were JD). He's just doesn't fit the band as well as the others in my opinion. Of course he's also the one whose voice and singing style that does the least for me.
JD... it's not his voice or singing that makes me dislike him, it's his attitude. His lack of preparedness is unprofessional and when he's criticized, for any reason, he gives off the "kid who knows he's down wrong but is trying to weasel out of it" vibe. I don't hate him but he irritates the hell out of me.
Marty. If Nirvana ever wanted to get back together they'd need Marty to stand in for Kurt Cobain. I think I'd actually prefer that Marty not win, just so I can follow his solo career.
Suzie. Just wow. From the girl that forgot her lyrics in the first show to this week... O.O I think she's really the best fit. She's sweet and nice, something very refreshing in a rockstar, and now that she's been polished a bit... just wow, again. And she sings INXS well.
So I want Suzie to win but would be okay if Marty did. I want JD to crash and burn because, I admit it, I'd enjoy seeing him knocked down several pegs. (Though he might be one of those people that I could enjoy his solo career while thinking he's a dick.) And I wish MiG the best but he's just not standing out for me musically.
And dangit, I want to see Jordis Unga all over the CD racks and hear her all over the radio. :)
