Girls, Top 8

Jayann is a fan Leona Lewis. She has to improve her diction. Parang iniipit niya yung boses niya. I think the song was too difficult for her.

On the first try, a contestant should try a ballad that will showcase his/her vocal range. On the second try, he/she should do the same thing to prove his/her consistency. Ramielle Malubay of American Idol impressed the judges the first time but failed the second time. That means the first was just luck?

Meryl is a fan of Laurin Hill. Her performance of Killing Me Softly was dry at the start pero bumawi sa latter part.

Jeni is a fan of Ella Fitzgerald. I enjoyed her performance of Too Darn Hot. But she has to improve more her diction.

Contestants should be able to sing and perform like a pro. Compare themselves to David Cook and David Archuleta. The Pinoy Idol hopefuls should be able to match the Davids' performance.

Gretchen, a fan of Jaya, performed "Wala Na Bang Pag-ibig". She was able to show her vocal range but her performance did not match Jaya's version.

Sue is a fan of Natasha Bedingfield. I don't like her but she nailed it this time even if she lost her focus towards the end.

Carol is a fan of Christina Aguilera. She sang The Voice Within. She's weak on higher notes but she did OK.

Penelope is a fan of Jordin Sparks. This is one girl that has improved a lot since the audition - her personality and her performance.

Mae is a fan of Kelly Clarkson. Singing "Walk Away", she had a weak start but improved it towards the end.

Jeni, Sue, and Penelope win my votes tonight.

How do you prepare for a high note? Sing it in your mind before you hit it vocally. Once the high note has registered in your brain, your vocal instruments naturally follow. And you don't have to worry about time of between singing it in your mind and singing it vocally. Your brain has the power to process information faster than a light speed.

Dyesebel Learns the Truth

Week 2 Episodes The next episodes after the first week were not as exciting as the first few days. In a few words, I can give you the synopsis. Dyesebel was able to save Fredo and hid him inside a cave. Bukanding (Paolo Ballesteros), her foster brother, persuaded her to go home for fear of the queen's punishment. Back to the cave, they found out that Fredo was bitten by a sea snake. Dyesebel left to look for cure. While she was gone, Berbola found Fredo inside the cave. She, too, fell in love with Fredo. In Sireneya, the queen learned about mermaids swimming up to the shore (which is forbidden). The queen had them hunted. Erebus (Alfred Vargas) warned Dyesebel and Bukanding that they were able to leave the cave and went to a shore where Fredo recovered. Berbola pointed at Dyesebel as the mermaid who violated the law. Dyesebel was sentenced to death; but Erebus told the queen that Berbula, too, was guilty of the same crime. The queen could not sentence her daughter Berbula to death....
