Amanda was so bad tonight, I broke out the comparison to Sanjaya doing You Really Got Me. It was that bad. She doesn't have a distinctive voice - what she has is an annoying, affected attempt to sing like Janis Joplin and other bluesy, barroom-type singers. But she has no voice of her own...she's just singing like somebody else, and doing it poorly. That performance was an out of tune, horrible, screaming mess. I've heard death metal singers with a better sense of melody.
I desperately want a rocker to do well and continue on in this competition, but she is terrible.
She was so bad, I don't really have much to say about the others. A couple did well, most were blah. I disagreed with Simon on that Lushington chick, thought she was decent.
