More Rock Star INXS

I'm still really enjoying this show, although I'm not alone in thinking that the Mansion episodes are boring. CBS agreed and moved them to VH1 on Sundays. The concert shows and the results shows remain on CBS. Last night's concert show was great as usual. All of the performers are so talented that I often forget it's a competition and just enjoy the performances. Only two were noticebly subpar last night: Jessica and Jordis.



INXS told Jessica they felt she had no passion. Jessica said that performance was all passion to which INXS said "If you're feeling the passion and we're not getting it and there's not much we can do about that." Yeah, she's gone this week, no question about it. Jordis had an off night, but they love her, she lots of fans so she's not going anywhere.

On the other end of the spectrum was Suzie who performed an amazing version of Losing My Religion, one of my favorite songs. Incidentally, JD helped her with the arrangement. He's trying his best to get back in everyone's good graces. He doesn't want to be known as the villain.



Suzie has no chance of winning this thing as she's not the most talented and does not fit well with INXS, but she has really turned herself around and will probably outlast a few of the guys.

The guy who has the most talent is Ty.



He brought his performance in singing Bob Marley's No Woman, No Cry. Talk about feeling passion. Ty is easily the best singer out there, an amazing and magnetic performer, and just not right for INXS. But he's the one most likely to get fame out of this gig anyway.

Marty sang an acoustic version of The Killers' Mr. Brightside.



I really became a Marty fan this week. HIs performance of Lithium a couple weeks ago was great, but this solo performance was amazing. I was kind of wondering if INXS would be put off by it considering Marty showed what he could without a band, but instead of being annoyed, Kirk of INXS suggested they do an all acoustic week next!

Bottom three will be:



Jessica, Brandon, and Deanna, who actually did a great job last night.

Brandon would be better off fronting Lynrd Skynrd - out of all the performers he is the worst fit for INXS. However, Jessica will almost definitely be booted after her comments to the band last night. The only way she survives is if by some miracle she doesn't end up in the bottom three. And that isn't going to happen.
