Digging this week's Rockstar Supernova tracks

Cable TVs still busted and someone's got to be real creative in order to not miss a weekly episode of something you look forward to going home to in a particular day of the week. Mine is Rockstar: Supernova. There's something more real in the setup of this program compared to other talent reality shows that got me hooked. One's the behind-the-scenes portion that takes as much time as the actual audition process. It makes the viewers care more and have a more tangent connection with the persons they see and it's something I consider, for want of a better term, subliminal. Makes watching more meaningful. Emo kid.

What I do is download the videos and mp3s of their performance to my PPC so I could get to watch the cuts I like over and over without even having to wait for the scheduled replay on very late the same night. For the reality bit, as they are not really available for download, I get them via the link above, the official Rockstar Supernova site hosted at MSN.

Below are the original artists' rendition (or another cover version but not done by the contestant) of what each of all 10 contestants sang on this week's episode. Want to hear who really nailed it and who got to redrum the songs? Click away, listen, and you be the judge. As an added extra, click on the links by the rockstar contestant's names and be led somewhere else.

Oh wow! Friend talagang you like this show kasi you don't do this kind of post for american Idol e...

Anyway, cool! I actually think Dilana's performace kicked ass and even though he is not my favorite, Lukas did really good.

Elimination was the best ever! HAHAHA! I wasn't really surprised Ryan was in the bottom 3.

It is actually only a matter of opinion on whether we like what we see them all do. I did not like Ryan's rendition this week is all. No hard feelings. It seems he was just shouting out the words on the loud part and his jumping and moving around dented the impact it's supposed to make. Noticed how Dave and TLee's comments sounded like a mockery? It did imply something and I have seen that substandard something while he was performing.

Dig this man, I like Zayra's arrangement this week, minus some parts where vocal power was required. The original track wasn't something in the first place and what she did was an improvement, like it or not. It's a fact. That does not mean, however, that I see her fit to front Supernova. Sad fact is she isn't the right one. Not for the band.

Now I'm expalining myself. It doesn't have to be this hardcore. We could all just be mere spectators, enjoy what's in store for the week,and let them do the thinking.

And, zhan, what 13th?
