Ricki-Lee – Love Is All Around [LIVE on IDOL 29/10/07]
Hey all… just got back in from the Live show tonight. I still feel awfully sad for Tarisai, and myrespect for Kyle just keeps growing day by day.
I think that tonight was TOO CLOSE for Natalie, I know that I am going to step up the voting. She needs to be at the finale…
But what I wanted to blog about was RICKI-LEE!! SHE was absolutely flipping amazing live tonight. I am yet to watch the show back, I just hope that her enrgy, vibrance and exuberance transcended through the TV screens. She is such a great person and I think one of the best idol’s in the whole 5 years of the show. I know that readers of my blog are probably sick of hearing me blabber on… but I can’t help it. I know that ‘Can’t Touch It” probably doesn’t come across as vocally stunning live, although it is a great, fun club-beat. I think ‘Love Is All Around’ display’s Ricki’s voice more vastly. She is simply divine.The DIVINE Miss R, I am going to call her.
I was sitting beside Kyle.. and cheering so loudly for her that he eventually turned around and told me to “Shut the F*#% UP about Ricki-Lee” To which my response was .. “Ahhh No!” And he replied “Hehe, yeah she is pretty awesome, isn’t she?” Awwwwwwwwww.
Contrary to what James said tonight, the single is actually NOT available now, but goes on sale NOVEMBER 10.
Get out there and get yourself a copy, and while you do pick up her latest album “Brand New Day” It is well worth the money!!
Thanks to fans on RLF, you can view Ricki-Lee Coulter’s ‘Love is All Around’ as performed live on Idol on Youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCqKA3Nqlk0

just to make a superficial comment, but did anyone notice that her face (esp her nose and cheeks) looked really shiny? was that just terrible makeup or bronzer or what?!

Loopy, you moron… it was obvious that her voice was shot from the ARIAs after-party, don’t be a dickhead. Did you stick around to hear her speak after the song?
Duh.
…and Jono, why the hell would you think anyone wants to know that? Just grab a tissue and shut up.

I am not going to defend Ricki-Lee and say that her voice was perfect on the night. I spoke to her manager after the show and they were both extremely tired, and they could barely talk. Ricki-Lee actually got back to her hotel at 11:30pm, so it wasn’t necessarily the latest night, but she had to sing, and then do A LOT of talking!!
So yeah, it was a bit raspy, but considering… I thought she put on an impressive performance.

There’s nothing to defend… it’s not like I’m slagging her off or anything.
Facts are facts… what’s the big deal? Nobody expects her to be perfect all the time. The fact that she wasn’t so vain to go home early on ARIA night because she had to perform I think actually works in her favour as far as I’m concerned.
