Here's Brooke White, who does some weird performance with ALW that involves walking around a piano. She calls it one of the most powerful moments she's had on the show so far.
Song: "You Must Love Me"
Me: Hmm. A song from the "Evita" movie. Kind of cheating, if you ask me. Whoa! False start! Brooke apologizes, and then starts over. That's it. I am so over this girl. Two false starts in one season? A first in AI history. Anyway, that puts a negative cloud over the performance immediately, and once she starts again, it's still forgettable. Vocally, it's safe and predictable. The song alone does nothing for me, and the setback makes me hate her even more.
Randy: "This wasn't great."
Paula: "You must never start and stop."
Simon: "It actually became quite uncomfortable...I think you're going to be very disappointed when you watch this back."

this song is kind of pathetic. and I thought the stop restart was weird because it was so abrupt, she didn't even seem to have time to have forgotten her lyrics
I think Brooke forgetting her lyrics was her "kiss of death." She doesn't have the slightest chance of winning anyway. Buh-bye Brooke.
That's ridiculous. I've seen Kathleen Battle start over, Harry Connick Jr. has started over and the list goes on and on. She kept her composure and she handled it just like any pro I've ever seen in concert has. These are people, not machines. That's part of being a true professional--the vulnerability, the humanity. If you lose that, you've lost everything. It's more important to be authentically give than it is to crank out notes and lyrics. Your criticizing makes you look foolish.

i dont know if anyone mentioned this about Brooke yet, but I like what she does with her mouth when she's listening to the critique of the judges. She's like either biting her tongue or has an underbite or it might be a nervous habit. Whatever it is, it's a turn on. But at the same time, watching her do it again and again gets a little annoying. As far as last night, I felt she sang a song. ALW said it was about a dying vulnerable woman trying to tell a man how she feels & its suppose to be sad
