As faithful "Idol Thoughts" readers know, I haven't quite connected with Phil this season. I admire his higher register, and he seems like a nice enough guy, but he just hasn't done it for me so far.
Phil is slowly, ever-so slowly, edging closer to becoming the full package. He definitely improved his song choice this week, ditching the sappy ballads in favor of a more upbeat tune. But while "Thunder Road" is the perfect song for Phil in theory, in reality it was, as Simon said, inauthentic. It was awkward. And despite a few notes here and there, he wasn't as vocally impressive as he was last week.
Two steps forward, one step back. What can ya do?
