hold the phones
i watch australian idol. shut up, so do you. i dont watch it for the talent, i watch it for the laughs, and the comforting fact that i know its not just me yelling at my tv, hundreds of thousands of people are screaming at the same time.
i dont think its a place to nuture talent. i dont think its a place to find the 'next big thing' because you will only come out of it 'the next big theing they want you to be. and its not very often i'll stick up for someone on idol either. but i dont think its necessary for the 'judges' to say quite such nasty things about the contestants.
for instance
rebecca pearce
im paraphrasing, but holden said something about her being beautiful so he expected to hear a hummingbird but instead heard a budgie.
you can watch some video here
yeah, she wasnt great, and i certainly wont be voting for her (because i dont vote for anyone and then i complain when the one i like doesnt get in, just like the rest of australia) but just because you're pretty, doesnt mean you can sing.and just because you're ugly, doesnt mean you cant

and here he is sporting a ridiculous beard
i happen to believe he is pretty bloody spunky and one of the best australian singers of our time if not forever and ever australia, the world, the universe, infinity
aaw, look at him. isnt he cute! wouldnt hurt a fly, he wouldnt
anyway, me and tim rogers, not the point of this post although it would be nice if it was. the point is, i would prefer to watch the australian idol contestants do their thing, whether it be their own song, accompanied by themselves on guitar, or singing with kermie and his band, and then at the end they do a big choreographed dance number just like young talent time.
and then they call marcia hines babygirlfriendsisteryougogirl until her brain starts bleeding out of her ears and then they use her corpse to smash mark holden to a bloody mess. sandilands can just stare blankly with his pointy face until somebody stabs him, i dont really care who. and then they can do another song and dance, celebrating their kill while it roasts slowly over an open fire.
its really not that hard, people

...but girls do
I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I have said too much
Been too unkind
I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that it's too late
And now there's nothing I can do
So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry
I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away
Misjudged your limit
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I have said too much
Been too unkind
I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that it's too late
And now there's nothing I can do
So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry

If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away
Misjudged your limit
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
