Earth to NoHo - No Way

We here at "Idol" HQ wanted Bandon to do OK. The North Hollywood kid is cute. We like his hair. We like his clothes. But we don't need another lame version of "Time After Time." You don't need to be a musicologist or an Amoeba counter clerk to know there are only two versions of that song: Cyndi and Miles. ENUFF SAID. Who liked it? Please-Like-Me Paula liked it. The rest gave it a Lankershim Boulevard thumbs down --- which these days usually meams bloodshed. Bye, Bye, Brandon. He gone be leavin' Las Vegas.
