Christine Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 christine you would be a hard judge! Yes Simon Cowell and I are of like minds. I probably would have turfed a 14-year-old Mika out of my office too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 If you all were talking Swedish right now we would just use a familiar quotation that goes about this: They just don’t have the right jerk! (Dom har inte den rätta knycken!) It is from an Astrid Lindgren movie and this is a perfect opportunity to say so. Poor guys … how could they ever be compared to Mika in a positive way on a Mika forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Poor guys … how could they ever be compared to Mika in a positive way on a Mika forum? No really, this isn't about Mika. This isn't an acceptable level of singing for any talent show contestant. This guy was the worst American Idol contestant to make it to the TV rounds last year and he was panned by the judges and mocked mercilessly by the public. But even he can sing better.

nicole Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQOGXH6I_aI This is what I call "Deaf Estonians". Guys start singing Grace Kelly about 4:00 I can't say their pronunciation is bad, because it doesn't sound like English at all. More like humming. Humming in a pig-got-stuck-in-the-fence way.

They had the whole night to learn the lyrics and that's how far they got. After they had stopped singing the lady who was the judge said something like "Whyyyyy did they choose the wrong song?"

nicole Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 i was wondering the same thing Oh no, the answer should have been "They are such good musicians and that's their interpretation of the song. They planned to sing it like that from the beginning. Nothing to do with forgetting." :thumb_yello: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some guy threw "Mika" into the random lyrics at 4:42. And then he says "gotta be silent". That makes me laugh because they're just bad auditions. It's when they get on the stage and everyone is clapping like they're good that freaks me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes me laugh because they're just bad auditions. It's when they get on the stage and everyone is clapping like they're good that freaks me out. I know. "Gotta be silent" - that made me laugh so much. Maybe he should listen to his own advice. I know. That's what I noticed in those videos that the poll is about. I mean how can someone be all enthusiastic and clap and scream while seeing such an awful performance. It might have been a show for the deaf though. I apologize if it was so.
