Three down, seven left to go! Which one of our thespians won't steal the show tonight? Be prepared for some drama!


THIS... IS HYPE! IDOL!


After last week's show (http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=303073), our Idol-hopefuls are back to perform hits from the Broadway stage. You'll be experiencing songs from the classics to the new sensations of that famous, New York City Street. Some of our contestants think they're in their element this week, others can't say the same. But we'll let you be the judge.

You, and, well, our judges of course.

Unfortunately, DBella is out of town this week. And when AndThePickles was asked to be her replacement, this is what she said:

AndThePickles: "No problem, I love musicals!" :yay:
Looks like she's good to go. But where is her man, Colossal Spoons? Kind of strange he ended up missing when DBella left town. Well, not unlike the stage, it seems Hype! Idol may have some drama. But, probably not. Well, Badger was the best we could do for the second replacement. :o

Roles get recast all the time, right? :csad:

But, hey! Erzengel's still with us!

So, if you were confused by reading that mess of colored names up there, let me recap on who this week's judges are: Badger, AndThePickles and Erzengel.

This should be interesting. Broadway belts after this!

[Showtime]

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

Ladies and gentlemen, you are such a wonderful crowd, I'd like to dedicate this "Word From Our Sponsor" tune to you. It's one of my personal favorites and I'd like to also give a special dedication to a young man who doesn't think he's seen anything good in life - Original Bamfer, this one's for you.

As you know, I'm Ferris Bueller. My alter-ego knows a ton about Broadway but he couldn't be here today so I am here to tell you to be gentle on the posters. We wouldn't want to get those moderators involved.If anyone needs a day off, it's Original Bamfer. He has a lot of things to sort out before he turns 20. Can't be wound up this tight and go off into the real world, it will kill him. Also, pardon my French, but Showtime is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his butt in two weeks you'd have a diamond.

For the contestants, you need the confidence to say to yourself, "Incredible! One of the worst performances of my career and they never doubted it for a second."

Now if you'll excuse me I do have a test today. It's on European socialism. I mean, really, what's the point? I'm not European. I don't plan on being European. So who cares if they're socialists? They could be fascist anarchists. It still doesn't change the fact that I don't own a car.

[The Original Bamfer]

Welcome back! ”Grease“ is the word of this performance. Here‘s knowsbleed with Grease from, well, Grease.

knowsbleed - Grease, Grease (http://media.putfile.com/Greece-34)

What‘s the word?

Badger: "hahahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahaha
*clutches chest* hahahahahahahahaha!!!"

AndThePickles: “This might not have been the best Grease song for you to choose to sing, but good effort :up: It's one of the harder ones!”

Erzengel: “First off can you spell Grease? :o Anywho, this was nice but I still haven't been rocked by one of your performances. It still sounds like you are sitting in your room or in your car just singing this. ”

[Showtime]

And here‘s Star with Seasons of Love from RENT.

Star - Seasons of Love, RENT (http://media.putfile.com/The-bird-that-was-chirping)

Judges, did you feel the love?

Badger: “Nice voice, though the song seemed off for me. Definetly could've been better.”

AndThePickles: “I think this song may have been a bit too high for your voice as unfortunately it was off-key a lot :csad: Good effort though, and it's one of my favorite musical songs :heart:”

Erzengel: “You have such a sweet voice, but I've seen the show and movie and you need to put more energy into this song. I just didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to.”

[The Original Bamfer]

JP sings about our remaining seven contestants in the song Nicest Kids in Town from Hairspray.

JP - Nicest Kids in Town, Hairspray (http://media.putfile.com/Nicest-Kids-In-Town)

Was he one of the nicest kids in town?

Badger: "Very nice, great job. Now if we could only do something about your hair."

AndThePickles: “This is definitely your genre! It sounds like you really got into singing this song...great job! :up: :heart:”

Erzengel: “Very nice rendition of this song. Very energetic, you really got into it which I liked. Very well done.”

[Showtime]

Majik1387 sings Her Voice from the new Broadway Disney Experience, The Little Mermaid.

Majik1387 - Her Voice, The Little Mermaid (http://media.putfile.com/Her-Voice-83)

How did you feel about his voice, judges?

Badger: “I liked it, nice tempo.”

AndThePickles: “I think that musicals are your forte. And yay Little Mermaid, did you sense that I'd be a guest judge? :oldrazz: Great vocal control, and you really hit those high notes! Lovely :up: :yay:”

Erzengel: “Excellent. You topped your last performance with this one. I was very impressed. Nicely done.“

[The Original Bamfer]

Now it’s ObakeTora’s turn on the stage with The Wiz‘s You Can‘t Win.

ObakeTora - You Can't Win, The Wiz (http://media.putfile.com/Hype-Idol-round-trizzle)

Can he win, judges?

Badger: “Simply awesome!! Mind blown!!”

AndThePickles: “Haha, somehow I knew you would choose The Wiz! A great performance as usual...you were really passionate and on point hitting the low notes at the end of the song. You really showed off your vocal abilities in this one!! :up: :heart:”

Erzengel: “Another outstanding performance. Each week you outdo your last performance. My only gripe is that was too brief. ”

[Showtime]

Monster’s next, singing King Herod‘s Song from Jesus Christ Superstar.

Monster - King Herod's Song, Jesus Christ Superstar (http://media.putfile.com/Monster---King-Herods-Song-Hype-Idol)

So, was it Broadway-worthy?

Badger: “Not my favorite of yours, seemed flat. Sorry, mate.”

AndThePickles: “You sang out loud and clear and had great control over the words. You really annunciated in this one! ”

Erzengel: “Wonderful. I really liked your rendition, especially doing it a Capella style. You really got into it. ”

[The Original Bamfer]

Shlee teaches us how to be Popular with some help from the current Broadway hit, Wicked.

Shlee - Popular, Wicked (http://media.putfile.com/Shlee-Wicked-Popular)

So, judges, do you think she‘ll be popular this week?

Badger: "I'm a big fan and that was a home run!”

AndThePickles: “Wonderful performance! You really got into it and showed off the personality of the piece. I loved the "giggle" interjections. One of my favorites for this week! :heart:”

Erzengel: “I liked the last half better than your first half, it seemed like you were more into "character" then. But overall, another amazing performance. :up:”

I can spell Grease! :cmad: I just wanted to use a different link for the title so that I don't get teh copyright police deleting my stuffs.

Man... you guys are so rough!! I hate you Badger! :cmad:

[JP]

Thanks guys. I'm not too happy with this week. I did all the backing vocals myself and it sounds like a bunch of zombies. :(

[knowsbleed]

They love you JP. They love you every week. I'm going to kick Badger's ass! :cmad:

[Captain_BluTac]

I splurged on the voting and voted for 3 people, but this week my favourite 2 were JP and Shlee.

[Erzengel]

I've seen Grease only on Cable/VHS, etc.

I've seen portions of Jesus Christ Superstar and the Wiz but I'm very familiar with a lot of the songs mostly with the former.

My favorite songs from Jesus Christ Superstar are Everything's Alright and I Don't Know How to Love Him.

I've seen Wicked, Littler Mermaid, Hairspray and Rent all on Broadway.

So yeah, for most of you who didn't know I do see quite a few Broadway shows. So far 2 this year and I'm seeing Young Frankenstein next weekend. :up:

Overall I liked most of your performances, however, I'm throwing my votes to maybe not the more popular people who I feel did an outstanding job this week. :up:

[Untilteld]

JP. :heart:

[Norman Osborn]

I splurged on the voting and voted for 3 people, but this week my favourite 2 were JP and Shlee.

I thought you were supposed to vote for 3? :huh:

[The Original Bamfer]

I thought you were supposed to vote for 3? :huh:

You can vote for as many as you'd like.

[Captain_BluTac]

I thought you were supposed to vote for 3? :huh:

You can vote for as many or as few as you like.:o

[SapphirePrima]

JP, Shlee, and Majik were my favorites.

Why is Obake the only one using a video. :confused:

And I finally voted! :)

[Malice]

Shlee teaches us how to be Popular with some help from the current Broadway hit, Wicked.

Shlee - Popular, Wicked (http://media.putfile.com/Shlee-Wicked-Popular)



damn i loved it.

Loved the musical!!

[Badger]

I can spell Grease! :cmad: I just wanted to use a different link for the title so that I don't get teh copyright police deleting my stuffs.

Man... you guys are so rough!! I hate you Badger! :cmad:

They love you JP. They love you every week. I'm going to kick Badger's ass! :cmad:


I still love you though. :csad:

[Badger]

Just wanted to say thanks to TOB for letting me fill in. While I was rough on some, I just want to say that you are all very talented (even you knowsy)and much braver then myself. It is much easier to stand back and critique then do what you all are doing. So in that breath, I say bravo to all of you.

[JP]

Shlee, you are simply amazing. I think this is my favorite from you thus far. :heart:

Obake. Maybe it's because I hate The Wiz, but that was my least favorite from you. And I usually love your stuff. I think if you used a backing track/instrumental it would really enhance the quality of your performance. That, and a better mic as the one you have isn't doing much for your voice.

But oh man, Shlee. :heart:

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

I haven't heard the rest of the songs yet, but Shlee, I love the song you picked. I heard it in my drama class when my friend performed it as part of her final once.. I loved it.:up:

[Erzengel]

Spoons, Bella. :down

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

^Lol.:o

[Shlee]

Oh WOW, you guys thank you sooooo much, you seriously have no idea how glad it made me!

I recorded that in all one shot, and the backing track had such a weird tempo in some parts (and of course I recorded last minute, because I wouldn't be me if I didn't!) so I thought it sounded absolutely horrid. I :heart: you guys so much!

Monster, I really liked your performance, but then again, I'm a bit biased as hot sexy British accent = win.

ObakeTora, loved the video. Love your voice, but I agree, it definitely wasn't my favorite from you! You're still awesome, however.

Majik, what can I say? You know you're good, and I know you're good. 'Nuff said!

JP, I enjoyed it! ^_^ I was very surprised by you this week and definitely had fun listening. ^_^

Star, you have such a sweet voice, but I don't know if you're listening to the song too loud or not. Your pitches are a bit off. My only suggestion to you would be to sing without background music, or having it low, and cupping your hand between your mouth and your ear so you can hear yourself better. Otherwise, not bad! I still liked your Madonna song best! :D

knowsbleed, I love Grease, and I'm always in for a good time. Not the best, but definitely not the worst. Good job! :D

[knowsbleed]

Thanks Schlee, I'll take mediocrity when it comes to singing. I'm at work right now but I'll comment on everyone's when I get home.

[ObakeTora]

thanks Shlee.

[Avangarde]

I voted under duress :ninja:

[knowsbleed]

How scandalous!


:ninja:

[ComicChick]

so glad someone did a song from Rent :up:

[Monster]

Oops, my song didn't go down well it seems.

[Erzengel]

ATP and myself both thought you were good? :huh:

[Monster]

ATP and myself both thought you were good? :huh:

I know you, ATP and Shlee liked it.

No one else commented on it, no one really does.

It's all about popularity. :(

[Erzengel]

Honestly, a compliment from Erz, is like worth at least 5 of your average poster. :up:

[Monster]

Honestly, a compliment from Erz, is like worth at least 5 of your average poster. :up:

Haha, yeah.

Erz for president?

[Shlee]

If it was about popularity, I would have been gone a long time ago. :P I know barely anyone on these boards, and aside from the RPG forums, this is the only one I frequent at all. ;)

Stick with it Monster. I really don't want to see you go.. Especially because it means not hearing your shmexi accent. ;)

[JP]

It's all about popularity. :(

I fail to see how.

[Darthphere]

JP. :heart:

We should play some GTAIV online and do a duet of "Light My Candle" from Rent.:csad:

[Erzengel]

Oh I get it, he'd be Rosario because of the complexion.

Racist. :down

[Monster]

I fail to see how.

It's probably just me being silly, no one really says much about me apart from Shlee.

I just think I'm one of the weaker ones in this competition.

[Star]

No way Monster. You have one of the hottest voices in the competition :o


Honestly, as much as I think EVERYONE is doing really great... The top two better be who I'm thinking they will be, or this competition is FLAWED!

[Monster]

Haha.

Thanks Star.

I just would have liked someone to say "Wow, well done", I don't get that confidence boost anymore.

That's probably why I don't do my best all the time, however I think it's becoming a tight competition.

[Alexia Dark]

*tears out hair*

Stupid computer. Why can't you have speakers and a microphone?

Next time, SHH. Next time.

[Majik1387]

Majik1387 sings Her Voice from the new Broadway Disney Experience, The Little Mermaid.

Majik1387 - Her Voice, The Little Mermaid (http://media.putfile.com/Her-Voice-83)

How did you feel about his voice, judges?

Badger: “I liked it, nice tempo.”

AndThePickles: “I think that musicals are your forte. And yay Little Mermaid, did you sense that I'd be a guest judge? Great vocal control, and you really hit those high notes! Lovely ”

Erzengel: “Excellent. You topped your last performance with this one. I was very impressed. Nicely done.“
Thanks.
And ATP, I used my psychic powers apparently.:oldrazz:
I also just bought the TLM Broadway soundtrack today. One of the last copies at Best Buy

I loved this a lot, and I'm a bit picky when I hear theatre people sing this songe because they tend to ruin it for me. But you didn't so yay.:yay:
JP, Shlee, and Majik were my favorites.

Why is Obake the only one using a video.

And I finally voted!
Thank ya.
Oh WOW, you guys thank you sooooo much, you seriously have no idea how glad it made me!

You weren't horrid at all. Remember though, we're our own worst critic, so most of the stuff we may not like may sound bad to us, it sometimes is pretty decent if not better.
Monster, I really liked your performance, but then again, I'm a bit biased as hot sexy British accent = win.
I have the same bias.:oldrazz:
Majik, what can I say? You know you're good, and I know you're good. 'Nuff said!
lol Thanks.
Oops, my song didn't go down well it seems.
Stick with it Monster. I really don't want to see you go.. Especially because it means not hearing your shmexi accent. ;)
Exactly.
It's probably just me being silly, no one really says much about me apart from Shlee.
Oh I see how it is.:o
I just think I'm one of the weaker ones in this competition.
You are definitely not one of the weaker ones in the competition
*tears out hair*

Stupid computer. Why can't you have speakers and a microphone?

Next time, SHH. Next time.
Get it fixed!

[Erzengel]

I wanna have relations with the Little Mermaid.

[Monster]

Thanks Majik, one of the reasons I entered this competition is to meet people that appreciate my singing. I don't know many people that can sing and be able to not be so damn up themselves about it.

I think everyone's amazing, I just feel silly because I'm the British one.

Haha, I do NOT have a sexy British accent. :)

[Majik1387]

All British accents are sexy to us yanks.:o

[Monster]

Haha.

True.

[JP]

Unless your name is Cat Deeley.

[knowsbleed]

I definitely think that Schlee and JP had the best performances this week. Schlee's timing is just perfect and both of you obviously had fun singing your Broadway tunes. I can't say this was really my forte.

Monster... you have a great sounding voice so when you sing it really gives you a boost. I don't know if you've noticed but sometimes people can sing, but their voice may not sound that great. So you've got one up on people.

[Shlee]

Whatever, Monster. I'd sleep with you just for your voice, mmk?! Mmmm... *drools*

And thanks Majik! I know we can, but man.. there... You can't tell me there weren't bad parts! LOL! Oh well... I stick it out. :P

[Erzengel]

Honestly, I think Majik, really kicked ass this time. And I think he had the best performance, mainly because I feel Obake's song was too short and I thought Shlee's was only strong in the 2nd half.

[The Original Bamfer]

The polls are closed.

Results... soonish.

[Majik1387]

Whatever, Monster. I'd sleep with you just for your voice, mmk?! Mmmm... *drools*
Ditto...plus the whole if he were gay thing...:hehe:
And thanks Majik! I know we can, but man.. there... You can't tell me there weren't bad parts! LOL! Oh well... I stick it out. :P
Well, we always have parts where we think "WTF did I just sing?" but since it was sung altogether as opposed to being cut up in an editing room, it was a really good performance.:up:
And when you did the character minidialogue bits, it didn't sound out of place.:up:
Honestly, I think Majik, really kicked ass this time. And I think he had the best performance, mainly because I feel Obake's song was too short and I thought Shlee's was only strong in the 2nd half.

Soon-ish in Bamfer speak means "I'm going to eat junk food and drink caffeine while you guys wait in anxiety".

[JP]

Well, we always have parts where we think "WTF did I just sing?" but since it was sung altogether as opposed to being cut up in an editing room, it was a really good performance.:up:

That doesn't even make any sense.

[Majik1387]

What doesn't make sense?

As a full performance one shot it was good. It's not like having different sets and splicing them together like they do in studios, it was one performance.

And I thought I was on your ignore list.

[JP]

Morbid curiosity.

[TLH]

The suspense is killing me. :oldrazz:

[knowsbleed]

There's JP vs Majik drama?


OOoooOOOoooOOOooooh.
