Lee D. Still Thinks He’s On American Idol
Posted on: May 4, 2012
(WARNING: Reading this post may cause an irrational rage to bubble up inside of you and start a twitter war. (Side note: super hard to have a discussion in 140 character increments). I understand all your comments, sorry if you don’t think I’m funny. Sorry if you have bad reading comprehension and flip out because I said I’m tired of the song Hallelujah. Do I sound like someone who likes the song Hallelujah? No. Other than that… enjoy. Read the rest of the blog and welcome to the exciting world that is The Revolution.)
Here is my beef: He’s either singing songs about slimy organ’s in one’s body or he’s singing songs that he sang 1,768 times before on American Idol.
Did he not write a slew of new songs? I’ll even take some of his back catalogue stuff. Let’s shake up this set list!
Lee D was somewhere with soldiers (not the White House Correspondent’s Dinner, but somewhere presumably cooler than where we all were) and singing songs from his American Idol days.
And I’m pretty sure he had on the same outfit he wore on American Idol top 3 week.
He is a great public speaker. At one point I thought he said something about “supporting the gay people”. He didn’t say that… I’m not sure what he said… but he didn’t say that.
He looks like a less aggressive, and hopefully democratic, version of Ted Nugent with his guitar and a giant, American flag as his background.
Hallelujah? And he may or may not have said something about Jesus? He was all marbled mouth-ed again.
BEAUTIFUL!
He should have sung one of his eyeballs because than he could have made a “we shot Osama Bin Laden in the eye” joke. It would’ve killed! <— see what I did there?

just saw the little twitter war over this and had to check it out. it’s not mean at all. if you can’t handle a little satire or criticism, then you probably shouldn’t be in the entertainment industry! i think lee’s fiance should really just let him speak for himself – she definitely doesn’t do him any favors. i’m a bit embarrassed for them. that being said, lee sounds great and what an awesome thing to do.
ehh it happens. i write for satirical purposes but humor is clearly subjective.

yeah, it bites when your spouse is a liability, it really sucks when they are a liability in public, and it sucks the most when your spouse is a liability in public and argues with your fans. really really clueless on her part.

Maybe her feelings come from a place of watching someone you love get torn down by the media and critics over and over. Not that Rocco has done that and we, as his fans, are more than aware of her support for him. Lee has had a tough road from the beginning since he won American Idol and I,for one, hope that soon he will get the acknowledgment(?) I feel he deserves. We know how to read Rocco’s satire and it does not come from a place of unkindness, but I have read mjsbigblog at times and those people have often been brutal towards Lee, so maybe that is why Jonna is so protective.

I agree with you I stopped going to mjsbigblog because of all the negativity !! Rocco has nothing but love for Lee and his music and I will continue to read and support Rocco with her wonderful twist on pop revolution !!

Whether you agree or disagree with anything that has been said, I just think it is unfortunate that a controversy arose out of such a positive thing that involved people fighting for our country. Plenty of other stuff to comment on.

Lee D was at a “Wounded Warrior” event in DC so I understand the song choices; they are also 2 songs that he always hits out of the park. New music is coming but he prob thought this wasn’t the right time. Love seeing him in a tux

he’s so daper
May 4, 2012 at 9:59 AM
I concur with you both!

I totally agree with Cindy…not the place to sing his new songs. His song choices were the perfect songs to sing at this event. Lee is a wonderful artist and a sensitive person.
