RockStar:SuperNova Sept. 5, 2006

The Performance show. Tonight each Rocker did a cover song and an original song. With only one week remaining this was a make or break type of show....

Dilana: She tore a calf muscle in rehearsal and was carried onto the stage. Her cover song was "Behind Blue Eyes" by the Who. She admitted in the set piece that she didn't know the entire song and it showed in her performance. Her original song was called "Super Soul". She is a Psycho ain't she? Gilby hit the nail on the head when he said that her lyrics are too straight forward and show no imaginantion. Like the Titanic the once mighty Dilana has hit an ice berg....

Magni: The Ice Man covered "Back in the USSR" by the Beatles. A very serviceable cover. His original, "When The Time Comes" featured powerful vocals and heavy music, about what you would expect from Iceland. I'm stuck on this thought about Magni, the song could have come from the Live catalogue....


Storm: She rocked out on "Suffragette City" by David Bowie and was joined onstage by Dave Navarro. But the best was yet to come with her original song 'Lady Like'. The one problem is that this is really an "R" rated song and sounds even better without the censored lyrics. (Look it up on Storm's MySpace page). The lads in SuperNova ate this up....

Lukas: Oi! His cover of Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer" was awful, IMHO. Like the sainted wife said 'I know the words to that song and I have no idea what he is singing'. Fortunately for Lukas his original song "Headspin" made everyone, including SuperNova, forget the Bon Jovi faux pas. Lukas did a great power ballad, something that may fit very nicely into the SuperNova catalog.

Toby: After a serviceable rendition of "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers, Toby tore the house down with his original song "Throw It Away". He was excellent. Here is one thought: Where was Toby last year? He would have been a perfect fit with INXS.

Prediction Time:

encore; Toby "Throw It Away"

SuperNova: Magni or Storm. I lean towards Storm but I really want to see Magni.

Bottom Three: (No Shame):

Dilana

Lukas

Storm

bye bye: (Shocker?!!) Dilana
