It would've been so much better! The boring, predictable song choices killed me tonight.
Wesley: We're going to bring Angelus in alive. Connor: No we're not. Gunn: I thought you said capturing him wasn't an option. Wesley: Changed my mind. Connor: Change it back.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
OK, I don't even watch AI, but now I"m really wishing one of them had done something from "Best Little Whorehouse In Texas"...
Well, in the movie she sang "I will always love you".

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Didn't love anything. Brooke, my nemesis: Jolene's lyrics could not be more clear. Seriously. Same with "I'll be watching you." So why did you turn both into something poppy and boppy? I hate your 37-year-old Mormobot ass even more than the other suckfests.
Dolly is the bomb, though.
ETA: I meant Every Breath You Take, above.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
yeah. tonight didn't thrill me, but i knew going into it that it wouldn't. i'm with Simon in hating country music.

I don't think Simon hates country. Simon loved Carrie Underwood. Flat out told her that she would be the best selling Idol of all time. (And he was right, btw.) Hell, Simon loved the Pickle and she can't even sing. I think what Simon hates is boring, because it doesn't smell like money. And these kids so far this season have been about as exciting as watching paint dry. The only "on the edge of my seat, electric" performance of this whole Top 12 thus far was Chikezie way back in Week One. Simon hates' that shit. I do, too.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
So I watched the first cooking bit on Hell's Kitchen...and promptly deleted the episode and the series pass from my DVR. Jesus - I thought they might have learned from last year's freak show, but no. Apparently they want the freak show (I know, I know - it's Fox, but I would have thought GR would have SOME input) and I'm done. Ramsay's ranting is starting to take on a self-loathing "what did I sign on for" quality and it's just not fun anymore.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Hell's Kitchen -
Okay, I watched this before AI so I'm about 2 hours behind. HK was kind of trashy and bad, but I laughed until tears poured down my face over the hen in a pumpkin. OMG, that was the definition of a hot mess.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I'm trying to wait to post until the end because I feel like I'm spamming the thread every Tuesday . . .
Please keep on with the spamming!
Thought AI was going to be the usual twenty minutes...forgot it was Dolly so I'd have to watch more than just the performances. So much love.
Brooke, my nemesis: Jolene's lyrics could not be more clear. Seriously. Same with "I'll be watching you." So why did you turn both into something poppy and boppy? I hate your 37-year-old Mormobot ass even more than the other suckfests.
So much this. Jesus.
Ramiele is going home, I think - most lackluster of the bunch. I think D. Cook did well with Little Sparrow, which I love. D.A. brang it pretty well too. "I Will Always Love You", seriously? She's got the stink of desperation on her - I think she knows anything less will send her home, so she's got to go for the Hail Mary.
Oh Dolly. So much love. There is just not an ounce of pretension or fakery about her (except the eyelashes!). How can you not just adore her?

Yeah, actually. I watch on tape delay and like to check in every few performances or so and see your comments as the show aired. So I say go for it.

What I love about her is that everything about her is fake on the outside (big ol' lesbian, too), but she still comes across as completely authentic.
