Eviction Night Number Two- So Long Brooke!

So last night was the second time I was an audience member of Australian Idol- the second Eviction show of the year. And sadly, it was Brooke's time to leave. I must admit I was taken aback by the decision- of all the bottom three, Brooke was definately the most memorable and talented singer. But I think my mum put it correctly when she explained that this years top 12 are "a pretty boring bunch,".

I completely agree with her. I mean, we have the token teen heartthrob (Tom) taking Matt Corby's place from last year, the token great Aussie battler (Luke) who can definately be compared to Shannon Noll, and (other than Chrislyn and Madame) all of the others are just a big blur of nameless faces to me! I'd be interested to see what everybody else thinks.

Anyway, last nights performance was most exciting for me for one reason- Cyndi Lauper was supposed to perform her famous single (and one of my most favourite songs) Time After Time. It's here where I warn you- be prepared to be shocked!

Cyndi's performance was NOT LIVE. It was performed the previous night, after the Sunday Night Performance Show. So, while it looks like she performed on the Monday (even the hosts and judges had their Monday Night outfits on) it was all pre-recorded. RIPPED OFF!

I guess that's T.V for you...

BAHHH. I was so agry when Brooke got booted. Grrr. Agression. SHe was one of my faves.

I see what u mean about the top 12 being "boring" not many, if any, really stick out from the crowd. But I think in terms of natural voices, its actally one of the best years.

Madam, Chrislyn, BROOKE, Teale and Roshani, IMO, have really fantastic voices.

And BITCH to not getting to see Cyndi Lauper. That wouldve sucked! She was so fantastic too.
