Randy: Yo, yo, what's up, dawg, what chu doin', man? Clay, 
                      you know what, you know what's funny? I keep thinkin about 
                      this contest we're doin', and I think we're tryin' to find 
                      the best that we can find in America, an' dude, every week 
                      you come up with it, dawg, you're definitely one of the 
                      best in America, dawg. Gotta give it up! 
                    Paula: 
                      Another wonderful week. Great vocal performance. I really 
                      think that the only bit of constructive criticism for you, 
                      and I'm not gonna say dance, I promise, is just conitinue 
                      down the path of being truthful to who you are as an artist. 
                      Let go and continue. Your voice is the star, and just keep 
                      goin', you're a definite contender for the finals. 
                       
                      Diane Warren: Wonderful, 
                      Sarah Evans did a great version, Edwin King did a great 
                      version, and now Clay did a great version. Beautiful, excellent! 
                      I love your voice. Thank you! 
                       
                      Randy: Simon Cowell? You have anything to add? 
                       
                      Simon: Well, I mean, if I, it's, you know, ahhh, blab blab 
                      blab blab blab (tongue tangling), if I was gonna give you 
                      advice, which you probably wouldn't listen, but anyway, 
                      I would say as a Broadway artist, you will make a fortune 
                      on the back of this. I just don't see you as what we were 
                      looking for originally, which was a great (fans uproar in 
                      background), a recording artist. That 's not to say that 
                      you haven't got a great talent, you have, but when I was 
                      talking about, if I was casting for Phantom of the Opera 
                      or something, you'd get the part, and that's not being rude. 
                      Because you've got that type voice.  
                       
                      Randy: You talkin' 'bout that show with that mask?  
                      Simon: No, not Mr Personallity. 
                       
                      Randy: Oh, right, yeah, yeah, ya not that show . 
                       
                      Simon: But you know what I'm saying. That's why I'm trying 
                      to be a bit more constructive this week as to... I don't 
                      know what... 
                       
                      Diane: Simon, I have a t-shirt for you... 
                       
                      Randy: Diane has a gift for you, Simon... 
                       
                      Diane: You need to wear this t-shirt... 
                       
                      Randy: Hold that up Simon it's for you... 
                       
                      Simon: (reading shirt) "Sorry, I don't do nice" 
                      OK, but well done!  |
