Michael Johns‘ dream run on American Idol has come to an end. His performance of “Dream On” was pretty solid, but it failed to connect with the American public.
I’ve got to admit that I’m shocked by the verdict. I was convinced that snoozeworthy Kristy Lee Cook or Whitney wannabe Syesha Mercado would get the chop […]
Michael Johns was back wearing his rock pants last night on American Idol. He took on the Aerosmith anthem “Dream On” and seemed to have the entire audience in the palm of his hands.
The judges seemed a little underwhelmed though. I understand what they’re saying, and agree last week’s performance was better. I just love […]
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! I’ve just watched Michael Johns’ performance from tonight’s episode of American Idol and I’m thrilled to say the boy is back to his best.
Who thought he’d come out with his best performance on Dolly Parton week? His rendition of “It’s All Wrong, But It’s All Right” is so sexy and […]
This week the American Idols tackled songs recorded in the year of their births. I love these very open ended themes because they really allow the contestants to shine. Michael Johns did just that this week, pulling out not one, but two, Queen classics. “We Will Rock You” got the crowd warmed up, while “We […]
It seems the folks at American Idol are having trouble coming up with themes. Last week we had the Lennon and McCartney songbook. This week we’ve got the songs of The Beatles. At least this way we can bring out some George Harrison gems I suppose.
I thought Michael sounded great this week (although Simon disagreed […]
Isn’t it funny? In recent weeks the American Idol judges have been so excited about Michael Johns’ mediocre performances. This week I thought he was back to his best, but the reception from the judges was less than enthusiastic.
At the end of the day it doesn’t matter what they said. Our Aussie boy is through […]
Australia’s American Idol hopeful Michael Johns was at it again this week with a cool rendition of “Don’t You Forget About Me.” I’m fairly biased about this song, but I thought this was a lot better than the other stuff we’ve seen him pull out in recent weeks. I enjoyed it and had to watch […]
This week was 70s week on American Idol, and Aussie hopeful Michael Johns opened the show with Fleetwood Mac’s “Go Your Own Way.” I’ve got to be honest, this performance has me worried. Again the judges seemed fairly positive, but from where I sat it was vocally pretty weak and a little bit pitchy.
I’d hate to think […]
Last night the top 12 guys kicked off American Idol’s sixties week. Our Aussie hopeful Michael Johns closed the show with his take on The Doors’ classic “Light My Fire.”
I’m not sure it was his strongest performance, but I’m positive he did enough to escape elimination this week. The judges seemed to lap it up […]
You might remember me mentioning last month that an Australian cutie called Michael Johns had made it through to American Idol’s important Hollywood round. I’m happy to say that Michael breezed through with consistently brilliant performances and he’s now a member of the Top 24.
He’s got some really tough competition, but with that winning combo […]
