So, Phillip Phillips Was Kind Of Drunk Last Night, Right?
Posted on: May 3, 2012
I mean, don’t get me wrong… I loved every moment of it.
American Idol Live-ish blog blew up in my face once again (but don’t worry, I watched Real Housewives of New Jersey, Glee AND procrastinated getting any form of work done for about 4 hours by sitting on Tumblr), but we got all the recaps right here!
1) That Joshua Ledet/ P^2 duet was the most awkward thing I ever did see. Why would you make a possible gay, black man and a probable Republican from Georgia sing “You Lost That Loving Feeling”?? It was uncomfortable, yet genius. Not to mention… P^2 looked completely high the entire time which explains his maneuver at the end.
I love P^2′s “my kidney’s don’t hurt tonight” grin the entire song, especially while the two of them sat uncomfortably on the stools. But seriously… PP is drunk or on NyQuil (my kind of guy) right? But, with that being said, that glazed over look is hot.
The absolute best part of that mess was Joshua Ledet’s refusal to be touched by P^2. Who would deny that man’s arms around them? He could have Ebola and I’d let P^2 touch me… touch me anywhere. True story.
Joshua is an idiot and for that reason alone needs to go home.
2) “The Letter”.
Now, I’m sure you massive Lee DeWyze fans were burning P^2 at the stake for this one, but to be fair, P^2 didn’t even sing the actual melody of this song and literally sang notes that don’t even exist, so it’s okay.
That whole performance brings me back to my “drunk theory”. I feel like PP is over this American Idol shit and just wants to take himself, his chest hair, and his dysfunctional kidney’s back to Georgia, which by the way will probably happen tonight.
He’s so happy.
3) “Time Of The Season” .
I can’t find video for it, but I’m just going to assume it was so bad it was good, just like the rest of the night.
Word on the street is that Phillip Phillips is going home tonight. I’m going to tell you why this is a good thing.
A) We don’t have to watch this show anymore
B) The winner of American Idol is never that successful (use about the last 5 winners as a reference and you’ll nod your head in agreement), so by him being booted tonight he might have a chance of survival.
C) I don’t have a third point, but you kind of need 3 points to make these look legit.

I found the vid of it and studio recording here: http://lps123.tumblr.com/
and friends, yes, of course… I would only drive 5 hours from Boston to befriend him, be-friend… I don’t know what this ‘stalk’ is you speak of…haha
I realize I am a massive Lee Bear fan. (And I have not watched American Idol before or since he was on the show.) I did a comparison of Lee’s “The Letter” with this one and well….Lee is much better. (Although no one can beat the original Box Tops version),
Ooh I am replying to myself, I didn’t read the whole commentary and didn’t see the part about the Lee fans. So, my bad.
Ok so I just watched all 3 of P^2 videos from last night 1. His version of the Letter was much better than I was expecting ( from the comments on twitter ) … imo 2. Time of the Season was AWESOME even his falsetto !! 3. what’s up with Joshua’s ” no touchy ” status P^2 was busting his aggies and I thought it was wicked funny !!! and I agree w/ SammyR maybe we could carpool from Boston to NYC !! I hope he doesn’t leave tonight I want him to win and flip Idol the bird !!!

haha…I love your comments as always, spot on and hysterical!
It’s worth checking out the ‘Time of the Season’ performance, just for the way he sings “What’s your name, who’s your daddy?”….. seriously, yes.
I think PP is going home tonight. I think he’s ready to go and I agree, it’s for the best, personally I’d hate to see him stuck in the idol contract AND more free time means more “your mom” with heejun!
