I used to sing in the school choir, and I had a stint where my voice just gave out. Every time I'd talk, my voice would just give out or squeak. No lie. I was known as "Squeaky Stephy" for the rest of my choir years.

But if I sang strongly enough, without overdoing it, it would happen. It wouldn't sound the same as usual, but I could sing. I don't know how it happens, but it did.

because talking and singing use different muscles in your throat. sometimes it's just the muscles you use for talking that are strained, so singing will sound fine.

i remember seeing something on Mystery Diagnosis about a woman who would constantly loose her voice yet when she'd yell or scream, she was fine.

I have a weird obsession with this song....love it!

Samer here. Only I didn't make it to season 3. Got to the point where I was like I don't care whats going on on that damned island!


Hmmm, where would I find a refurbed Apple products at??

Crystal's dad sounds a lot like my dad. if i were in a band or into music, he'd probably do the same thing....drive me there, set up stuff for me, and watch.

LOL oh gosh, imagine what her neighbors would think.

*late at night, while neighbors are trying to sleep*

Screamy woman: HONEY, WHERE'S THE HEMORRHOID CREAM? I NEED IT RIGHT NOW!

 

[Nancy]

I'm back...what did I miss?

 

[JDUCKY]

Ugh, seriously.

Someone SHUT THE AUDIENCE UP!!

Stop the dang clapping!!

well she said she noticed it when she would be at her children's sporting events and she'd be yelling at the sidelines. she'd be fine doing that, but speaking regularly she had a problem with.

 

[LiLIrishChick63]

idk if i would have picked this song....it's kind of just the same lyrics over and over again.......

 

[Robinrs]

I'd google him all night!!!!

Wow! Did an image search... CUUUUUUTE!

 

[StephyDee]

I'm back...what did I miss?

Nothing too noteworthy. I honestly can't remember what I can tell you. Nothing that great.

 

[charming23]

Go Mamasox!!!!! I loved it. I am glad she put her own spin on it.

Well, here goes...

MIKE LYNCH: "Miss You"... This is one of my favorite Stones songs, but I'm not doing nip-ups over this. It has too much of a Stevie Wonder vibe to it (not an awful thing....but not unique). It's good for him, just not for me.

DIDI BENAMI: "Play With Fire"... A weak start right off the bat. The middle section seems off, like she almost forgot the words. Shaky performance overall.

CASEY JAMES: "It's All Over Now"... There is a bit too much "country" to this for my tastes, but he is enjoyable to listen to. He's got the Cariie Underwood curse. Great voice, super talent, but boring as watching paint dry. Hopefully his good looks and talent are enough.

LACEY BROWN: "Ruby Tuesday"... Man does she sound like the love child of Stevie Nicks and Pink (or is it Gwen Stefani). Ugh, this rendition is boring. I want to claw my ears off.

ANDREW GARCIA: "Gimme Shelter"... All that talk of the guitar and he doesn't play one here?? Another of my favorite Stones songs, and all I can think of how awesome Adam Lambert would've done this. Grrrrr... This is so monotone (aside from that cracked note). Uninspired.

KATIE STEVENS: "Wild Horses"... This is a little pageanty, but she's a cutie, and her voice is clean and relatively on pitch. Geez...are there any other lyrics to this song??

TIM URBAN: "Under My Thumb"... Hmmm...SHAGGY! Seriously, he just isn't good enought to be in this competition. And saying that with this lackluster group is saying something.

SIOBHAN MAGNUS: "Paint It Black"... She's popping some "p's" but at least the arraingment is interesting. She lookd angry, and I'm not buying it from mrs. happy. Oh and the big screachy notes only work if you can hold the pitch (see, Adam Lambert). Nice try, but fell a little short.

LEE DEWYZE: "Beast Of Burden"... The ultimate make out song. He looks a little like he's going to puke though. And he's mumbling the lyrics a bit. "make uhhhhv oh me"? He could probably put out a halfway decent album. Nice effort.

PAIGE MILES: "Honky Tonk Woman"... So far she is the best sounding performer of the night. Nothing super special about the song, but it's fun, in tune, and very listenable! Job well done Ms. Miles.

AARON KELLY: "Angie"... I already want to gouge my own ears off. This kid is too baby faced and baby sounding for me to take seriously. he's like Aaron Carter or that Justin Bieber kid. Not enjoying him at all.

CRYSTAL BOWERSOX: "You Can't Always get What You Want"... Once again, HEAD AND SHOULDERS AND WAIST AND KNEES ABOVE THE REST!!! It's a shame she has to rub elbows with the rest of these losers. Could you imagine if she had been in the season with David Cook or Adam Lambert? WOWersox!



Just end the pain for the others now and hand the title over to the rightful winner. Ms. Crystal Bowersox. Thank you....thank you very much.

Crystal was good.
