Jason Castro Loses His Edge
American Idol Season Seven: Jason Castro
Since I first heard him sing Jason has been one of my absolute favorite performers. I was saddened by his performance last night. It was weak and at times far too quiet. I had trouble keeping my attention on him and found the performance to be extremely boring.
Jason needs to come out of his comfort zone and show us what he's really capable of. If he continues at this slow pace I'm afraid his good looks and charming personality won't get him much further in this competition.
As Simon Cowell has said before, in the end this is a talent competition and not a popularity contest. If Jason wants to stay he's going to have to take big risks and show us his vocal and performance ranges. In this writer's opinion we need to see more performances from Jason like his performance during 80s week and less like his performance last night.

Post a CommentValentyna is spot on! Jason Castro's studio recordings far outshine the shortened performance versions. The full length version of "Fragile" is stunning and the longer recording of "Traveling Man" was also far superior to the one he gave for the competition.
Now if we could only have a full length recording of "Hallelujah," how great would that be? Rock on, Jason!!!
The download of this song is haunting and beautiful. It's just not a good choice for a glory-note contest, and that's what AI is.
Seriously, you need to download the studio version of last night's "Fragile." It's phenomonal.
