American Idol Contestant Fails To Impress Judge With Acoustic Fall Out Boy Cover

Hey Everyone!

What a shocker, eh? Who would have guessed that participants on American Idol are frequently criticized by the judges? What a cruel world we live in haha.

Twenty three year old Andrew Garcia, a finalist in the top 24 of the popular reality series took to the stage this week with an acoustic rendition of a Fall Out Boy favorite, "Sugar We're Going Down". Simon Cowell, as usual, had some less than impressed words for the performance, but fans are supporting his choice. Was it a critique just for the sake of upholding the image? Or a valid comment? Who knows.

Andrew auditioned in LA and has done well in the competition so far. He hails from Moreno Valley, where he plays with his band The Adrian William Project.

What do you think of the performance? Share your thoughts!

American Idol Contestants... Please Stop Taking A Piece Of My Heart!

Hey Everyone!

Alright, so as much as I just dont watch this show, I do find the audition processes to be fairly interesting. Often times, its just a great laugh... have to really wonder why some of these people think they have ANY form of vocal talent. Over the past couple nights, I've seen several renditions of the Janis Joplin classic Piece Of My Heart... all of which have been pretty terrible. I'd like to take a second to remember the passion and soul that Janis put into her performance. People, please stop trying to be her, because you cant! Its simply impossible. You can sing it "better" all you want, but this will just always be her song and you will never replace the stage presence this woman had. Accept it and move on haha.

Rock On!
