A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

AI QUICK COMMENTS: First things first: if you're going to have the legendary Smokey Robinson on the show, given all the man has written, then it should be Smokey Robinson Night. The man is a legend, and to have him have to adjudicate performances of a lesser talent (though Billy Joel is a talent) is insulting to all this man has done.

Onto the performances. Not much to say:

Kim C: has reached her limit. She doesn't have the range you need to succeed. She may not be gone this week, but she ain't winning.
Ruben: Meh. "Just the Way You Are" was fine, but no better. But a Ruben 'Meh' is better than almost anyone else.
Kim L: Solid rendition of "New York State of Mind". She had it going on.
GoatGirl: Bleating in full effect. Go away. I knew it'd be bad, but not this bad.
Josh: I don't think you're supposed to look angry when singing "Piano Man".
Trenyce: Way oversung. Not subtle at all. Missed opportunity.
Clay: If you're going to go uptempo, do it the whole way. That intro scared me.

An unthrilling week. Bring on the masked dudes.
