Yes, that's right, I'm bringing Canadian Idol to TV Fan. To watch video of the show, go to http://mjsbigblog.com/ and watch.

Slezak, are you paying attention? Good. You won't regret it.

David Bowie is a personal God, and I’ve always been wary about those who attempt his masterpieces on stage. ( Jacob Hoggard remains the lone exception to the ” Never Bowie” rule.) I’ve been at turns excited ( ” Yay! Good music on an Idol show!”) and apprehensive ( ” ****! Good music on an Idol show! How are they gonna **** it up?”).  this is gonna be a trainwreck or heavenly. How nervous am I?  Very, to be honest.

Zack is wearing silver eye makeup. Typical.

Drew wright opens the show, sitting behind the drums and playing them well, I might add. He’s also got two different color eyes in honor of the man himself. His version of ” Five Years” is actually pretty good. I’m wondering if it would hold up over the evening. Wait and see is always a good plan. He sings it well enough, the drumming is quite impressive. Jake wishes he would play drums on an off night, Sass loved it, Farley  said it needed more animation, Zack didn’t like it one bit.

Adam rode his Harley onstage ( how awesome? Too awesome!) and launched into a really good version of ” Rebel Rebel”, which was one of the songs I thought of for him before deeming it too obvious. He did a really great vocal that justifies my trumpeting him. Sass loved it, Farley called it good, Zack called it credible ( which is high praise from Zack if you aren’t a Barbie look alike),  and Jake loved it, but reminded Adam to wear a helmet when riding, even on stage. Ben got a funny out ( seriously, he’s not that funny). And then they cut to Mark Day, dressed in a vest and T-shirt with a faux hawk going. Sad, really. I cracked up hardcore.

Mark decides to sing the very worst of all David Bowie performances ( save for ” The Laughing Gnome”) and “rocked” out ” Dancing In the Streets”. Terrible doesn’t begin to describe it, and the judges can’tr say anything without laughing. They all still manage to tell him he’s a great singer, though.

Mookie delivers a version of ” The Man Who Sold The World” that reminds people that Bowie did it first and Nirvana did it definitively.  It wasn’t perfect vocally, but I really liked it. He did less of that weird mouth twisting thing he usually does. The judges were split- Jake wasn’t loving it, Zack was,  Sass was loving Mooks, and Farley was loving the variation.

Amberly tries her hand at ” Space Oddity”. A  brave choice, considering the only female sung version I have heard is Natalie Merchant’s, and I’m not a fan of it. Lo- and- behold. She goes with the Merchant version and is… adequate.  The judges aren’t blown away by it, save for Zack.

Sebastian- less i say the better. He’s still pretty.

Earl takes on ” RockN’ Roll Suicide”, which is one of my favorite Bowie songs.  Is it me, or is he dressed as Tom Waits? I love Tom Waits, too, so, whatever. I love this version, I love Earl. Love this. It’s not pitch perfect, but it’s cool. The judges are falling all over themselves with praise.

Katherine does not wow me with her ” Cat People”. Never was a fan of that film or it’s soundtrack. Judges praise her again. What are they hearing that I’m not?

Theo Tams! My pick to win.And he goes obscure and picks from Bowie’s first album- before ” Space Oddity” and everything.  ” Silly Boy Blue” coming from Theo was awesome. My notes consist of ” wow!” written fifteen times. Amazing. Save for Zack, who’s an idiot at times, much like Simon, the judges are equally speechless.

Mitch MacDonald is turning into a polarizing figure. On message boards, you wither love him or hate him. I really like him.  But ” Moonage Daydream”? Really? All right. He does a really good version of a song I find forgettable at the best of times. Sass and Farley are all liking it, Zack is loving it, and Jake was liking it, too. Mitch- most improved for sure.

Tough, but my bottom three-

Mark Day

Adam Castelli

Drew Wright ( cursed at first).

Mark Day should go home, but it might be poor Drew.
