RockStar:SuperNova FINAL Analysis

This is the last RockStar:SuperNova analysis and Brooke Burke said it best, “It is incredible to think that one of these four will win.” I am not exactly sure how she meant that, I probably understood it differently than she meant.

To start off the last show, America had a chance to vote someone back for an encore and I’ll be damned if America didn’t bring back “The Suck Horse.” I immediately threw up a little bit in my mouth. He still sucks. I thought I was finished with him and his goofy armband, his girlie screams, his fake intensity, and his “Blue Steel” of looks, “P!$$ed Off.” I have a feeling we won’t have to worry about him after this performance, except for those who will more than likely see him live with The House Band on the SuperNova Tour. I hope that weasel doesn’t come anywhere near Kentucky.

Now on with the real show, Toby is up first and he sings Karma Police by Radiohead. This is not a great song for Toby. Toby needs up-tempo rockers to really show off his stuff. He is great at getting the crowd whipped into frenzy and this song does not do that. He then brings out Magni on guitar and performs his hey, hey, ho song and this is a crowd pleaser. He is his best with this type of music. He and Magni should form a family band, they work well together. He did a great job.

Now we have Udo(Lukas) with a Coldplay song. Does Coldplay sponsor this competition? There is a Coldplay song on here every week. It must be wuss night on RockStar because all the covers are weak. This may have been his best cover because with the background singing, I can understand the words. He needs more eye makeup, though. And there’s Paula Abdul, a traitor to her own silly singing competition. Now Udo(Lukas) is doing his Headspin song again. What? But this time it’s “stripped down.” Whenever I hear the words “stripped down,” I think simultaneously, “sucked up.” His vocal style can be summed up with one word, grunty. He doesn’t sing, he grunts and growls, that’s fine for a band like Cannibal Corpse, but for SuperNova? I have heard this goofy song 3 times now and I can’t tell if it is a tribute to his mother or a slam. Why are the guys in SuperNova and Dave so fascinated with Lukas?

Now we have Dilana, who looks to be totally recovered from her “torn” calf muscle. Hallelujah!! It’s a miracle. Oh, no. She is not going to sing Roxanne, is she? My favorite Police song? Please say it ain’t so. That is what I thought when I first heard she was singing this. I have to say, I love her version. She sang beautifully and utilized the boys perfectly as HER background singers. Surprisingly good, definitely the best cover of the night. Her original is alright, but not a blow you away great like Toby’s. This was her best in the last 3 or 4 weeks, easily.

Lastly we have Magni and he performs Hush by Deep Purple. You can’t go wrong with the Purp, especially Bratch’s favorite Purple song. I have to say I wasn’t that impressed. Magni did fine, but the House Band disappointed me on this song. It was the second best cover of the night though. Now we have his original song. Did he just forget the title to his OWN song? It is fine, but not great. Once again, T-Lee slams Magni. He really hates Magni. Every week he has something to pick at when it comes to Magni while he is ready to bow down to Lukas. I would not want T-Lee to pick the lead singer for my band. Magni is in big, big trouble.

Now we are down to the last night, America will vote for a bottom two, then they will play and one will get the boot. How they will whittle down the remaining three, I do not know. I ranked all the performances last night according to how I felt. Dilana had the best cover and second best original, Toby had the third best cover and the best original, Magni had the second best cover and the third best original, and Udo(Lukas) is bringing up the rear with the worst of both the covers and the originals.

I think that Lukas and Magni will be in the bottom three and we all know they love Lukas. Magni will be the first out, very undeservingly, especially over Lukas. I have to tell you, I think Dilana redeemed herself and should win this thing. Whatever you think about her little “episode” a few weeks ago, she has the most unique (and still be listenable) voice of any of them. Unfortunately Gilby will veto her because she can’t write. So I expect Toby to be the one to be picked. He makes the most sense. He is a good singer, a great entertainer and Gilby said he was a great writer. In fact, SuperNova could have a hit with his original song. I am just worried that Lukas is a practitioner of the black arts and has SuperNova under a spell. We can only hope that Toby is able to break this unholy hold Lukas has over the band. Congratulations Toby, you are now a member of SuperNova. Man, I am so not gonna/gonna miss this show.
