Queen on American Idol


Gotta love this, who could even come close to Freddie's range? I dont expect much but will be great to hear covers from my Idol of the 70's and 80's. Anyone following the show, predictions of who will perform what and who will excel? Katherine singing Love of my Life and Chris singing We will Rock you are my predicitions.

Velo, I agree that all will have problems with the range. But it will be a hell of a show while they try! I agree too that Katharine and Chris should go to the finals, but I doubt that they will since Katharine has already been in the bottom three and Chris is too much of a rocker (which is fine with me, but I don't personally vote 10 million times after every show and that's what it'll take). Kellie will probably go all the way even though she's a good, but not great singer. Guinness -- I bet you're right about Taylor's choice, that would be perfect. Who'll do Another One Bites the Dust, Bohemian Rhapsody, You're My Best Friend or Under Pressure. They'd all be good songs.

You're right Bander, Elliot has one of the best voices -- I wish he would sing in different styles to attract a broader following. So far, he's been pretty one dimensional and that's a hard thing to pull off if you don't have Hollywood looks.
Huh! Ace is still there, we'll see about next week. Bucky was unfortunate enough to a) not be the best talent and b) be first in the line-up (have you noticed how the firsts end up last?). Let's see what happens next week. Q: Who can do Rod?" A: Almost anybody -- especially when it comes to standards.
Velo62, you crack me up. You are correct though. Chris is simply too good and off mainstream to be an American Idol. Among the final four, he's the only one I'd spend money to hear. He'll do great if he can get a more engaging personality.
