rockstar supernova final 4 show

well it's down to this: four contestants left to front the group supernova. some lucky person will get to hang out with tommy lee, jason newsted, and gilby clark. tonight is part one of the season finale. from 15 to 4.

but first, fans voted for their favorite rocker that was eliminated, and ryan star won. he's already got a record contract from some company that mark burnett runs.

toby - "karma police", radiohead - decent. he's much better on uptempo songs. brought magni up for his original song, on guitar. "throw it away" - same original as last time, so i'm assuming they're all doing a repeat original. last week had more energy, and since we heard it two nights in a row then, it was new, fresh. now it's still good, but lacks a little spark. and the instrumental tracks on this song are really nice.

lucas - "fix you", coldplay - i think this showcased lucas at his worst. not really singing, just scratching it out. "head spin" - did a stripped down version of his weird song about his relationship with his mom. much better job actually singingg, showing off his talent.

(paula abdul was in the audience)

dilanna - "roxanne", the police - dilanna was good on this song. she, too, actually sang instead of just shouting out the lyrics. much improved. probably the best of the cover songs so far. and the other 3 contestants came out and sang back up. "supersoul" - apparently, this song is about freedom and moving forward, not angry. it's also not that good. at least she did it well. although she kinda had this rooster crow sound at the end.

magni - "hush", deep purple - hey, an upbeat song. good choice. well done. showed you can rock (something the other three didn't do on their covers). "when the time comes" - another good rocker, nicely sung performed. but tommy lee ripped the original, jason liked it.

i've got to think that tonight's favorites were magni & dilanna. i think the overall top two should be toby and magni. we'll see...
