« This week's new releases (9/5) | Main | CD Review: Christina Aguilera "Back to Basics" »

Rockstar: Supernova Week 10

Wow, it's getting down to the wire here. There are only five singers left, and it's at the point where none of them is at the bottom.

They all bring something different to the table, and it's really just a matter of what the guys in Supernova want.

Dilana - Her first song of the night was "Behind Blue Eyes" and I give her a lot of credit for performing while injured - apparently, she tore her calf muscle. She performed the song while seated on a stool, and I thought it was one of her best vocal performances, though she did hit some bad notes. Her original song, "Supersoul," wasn't a bad song. She did a good job hopping on one let, but the lyrics were pretty weak. It wasn't a "singalong," but I thought it was fitting for her personality.

Magni - His first song, "Back in the USSR," wasn't his best vocal performance, but he continues to have solid performances as a whole. His original song, "When the Time Comes," was a good song, which shouldn't be surprising considering he's been in a successful band. It wasn't a memorable song, but I liked it.

Storm Large - Her first song, "Suffragette City," featured Dave Navarro on guitar - who was impressive, no surprise there. I thought it was one of Storm's best performances - it fit her style and vocals well. Her original song, "What the What is Ladylike," had a good groove to it, but was a little too repetitive. She redeemed herself after a number of "weaks."

Lukas Rossi - His first song, "Living on a Prayer," was a stripped down version of the Bon Jovi hit - just Lukas and an electric guitar. I liked his version a lot, but couldn't understand some of his vocals. It was a good showcase for his vocals. His original song, "Headspin," was good, too. I was expecting something harder, but I thought it had the right edge for Supernova compared to others. Jason Newstead was already singing along.

Toby Rand - Toby's first song was "Mr. Brightside." I still don't like this song. And didn't he sing another song by The Killers another time? I didn't think there was much punch to the vocals. His original song was a better performance and vocals. His running into the crowd is getting overdone, but it was a catchy tune. So much so, that I forgot his first song completely.

At the top - I thought Magni and Storm had two solid performances. The other singers had one strong, one weak. At this point, it's anyone's guess.

I'm sad to say the Musical Garbage Can will be leaving GoTriad on or about March 23. It will go back to its original home at Blogspot here. Thank you for your continued support!
