Didi Benami “Terrified” on AMERICAN IDOL

While Andrew Garcia’s “Straight Up” was the standout moment among the guys tonight on AMERICAN IDOL, it was Didi Benami who left a lasting impression on behalf of the ladies. Her rendition of Katherine McPhee/Kara DioGuardi’s “Terrified” was radio-ready. Her voice is unique, very powerful but also very controlled. She’s everything that the judges hoped […]

Andrew Garcia “Straight Up” on AMERICAN IDOL

With all the nonsense thrown at us during the AMERICAN IDOL audition episodes, it’s surprising that anyone could be memorable and stand out.

His interpretation and vocal […]

AMERICAN IDOL: Orlando Auditions

AMERICAN IDOL is such a popular show here at GiveMeMyRemote.com that I just figured everyone would be down with discussing the audition episodes. Ooops, I might have misjudged that one.

It’s not every day you’re going to stumble upon a gem like “Pants on the Ground” but it’s enough to remind me that although I loathe the American Idol audition rounds, there is a certain pop culture value in checking out the early “competition”. The way I like to look at it is it’s more […]

It’s only when it’s up to the people that great shows on The CW walk away as the victors.
