Rock Star Volleyball
I realize that I've been devoting a lot of blog space to Rock Star: INXS, but it's been so great these past few weeks that I can't help myself.
This week it was Ty Taylor who, once again, stole the show — and my heart — with his soulful and passionate rendition of Bob Marley's "No Woman, No Cry" (watch it here). But I have every confidence that it will be Jordis' turn to wow me again next week (I'm still reeling from her version of "The Man Who Sold the World"... see my previous post). Ty and Jordis seem to be volleying the phenomenal performances back and forth.
Also deserving of kudos this week: Marty Casey singing an intense, unplugged rendition of The Killers' song "Mr. Brightside" (watch video) and Suzie McNeil (from my hometown of Toronto!), who sang a kick ass arrangement of R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion" (watch video). Suzie had a little arranging help from J.D. — I gotta say, that guy may rub me the wrong way and I'm not so keen on his vocals sometimes, but that boy sure knows how to come up with some cool arrangements.
Elimination Night Update: I CANNOT believe that Suzie was in the bottom three!!! Fortunately, the band seemed as stunned as I was and Suzie rocked out with the INXS song "Bitter Tears" and was sent straight back to rejoin the others. Phew.
