American Idol - The Ladies

Sabrina Sloan took on one of my favorite Aretha songs, and did a good job.

It's exciting to hear some great singers so far.

Nicole Tranquillo took on Chaka Khan (and Erykah Badu). She has a lovely voice, but she suffers from deafness, as A calls it, just the inability to hear.

Surprisingly, A said he's looking forward to hearing her recording so they could correct the sharp problems. (Sharp is always better than flat.)

Below is Erykah Badu's cover of the song, which you can buy on iTunes here.

Melinda Doolittle was fabulous.

And then LaKisha Jones ... wow! I mean really, wow!
