I so wanted to hear Sanjaya's rendition of GOLDFINGER. To be able to sing "You're So Vain" directly to Simon would be Heaven for anyone. Tom Jones could coach Blake Lewis on how to bellow THUNDERBALL. Simon could complain that he'd never heard of LIVE AND LET DIE before. ("Sir Paul who?") And the more lyrically-challenged contestants could vie for the right to hum the James Bond Theme as the "Song" from DR.NO. (Yes, I know that there was a song in the movie, UNDERNEATH THE MANGO TREE, but it wasn't sung anywhere near the credits.) The singer covering Nancy Sinatra Lambert's YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE could be critiicized for NOT being pitchy enough. "Dawg, you were on key. You're supposed to go sharp."<BR/><BR/>Missed oportunities.<BR/><BR/>BTW, the weeping child was crying for the late Larry Bud Melman, whose heart could not survive the elimination of Brandon Rogers.

Then I think I could survive in the joint.<BR/><BR/>Chris Sligh:<BR/><BR/>There's just something about the pudgy bastard that I really liked early on, but with each passing performance he seems to be annoying me more and more.
