Ramiele Malubay American Idol Top 10

Filipino-American Ramiele Malubay performs “Alone” by Carrie Underwood on American Idol Top 10

I was so scared. I think the song was too big for her. It was not good. Simon Cowell said Ramiele was safe, but singing first spells trouble always.

after re-listening…..it wasn’t THAT bad….i feel bad for her…she has a wonderful voice, but each week something holds her down. EITHER THE THEME WEEK OR HER SICKNESS

Totally desagree! That was so good! She hited all the notes! For me, her second best performance!! Great!

danny sighting!!! anyway, it was strained but i’m glad that she’s trying to belt it out. the song was just too big for her or probably she was really just sick. anyway, i hope she stays and prove her worth next week! go ramiele!!!!!!!

Ouch!

Totally with you, Rickey. I love Ramielle, but this was a terrible performance. Flat half the time, sharp the other half. I wanted her to do this well, but it was just way too big for her.

I don’t know why TPTB are calling her the little girl with the big voice. Her voice isn’t big at all. Her range isn’t that great.

What made “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me” magical was that it was in her voice range and she delivered it with class and the proper emotion. Lately, she hasn’t been feeling it, and that was just all over the place. Even Gina Glocksen delivered it better.

Bottom 3, definitely. Kicked out? Hopefully not because Kristy Lee’s still in there, but she really has to step up her game.

I liked her better last week. This song was way too big for her. But she doesn’t deserve to leave yet.

i think she did ok, considering that she’s sick. i didn’t like her back up.

RICKEY!!!! Carried Underwood KILLED – absolutely killed ALONE, but what makes her performance so OUTSTANDING is how effortless it looked. Watch Ramielle, then watch Carrie. Ramielle appeared to be strained (she was sick, I know) but Carrie looked like it was a walk in MacArthur’s Park. LOL!!! Like she wasn’t hitting any high notes at all, but she did. When Carly sang ALONE in Hollywood, that was fantastic, also. And Gina Glockson did a great job on Alone, also. But Carrie wins hands down, I think.

I am losing faith. Actually, I’ve lost faith. I don’t think she’s that good as we were led to believe.

This was her worst performance. I was honestly scared when I saw she was singing this, and she confirmed them. I love her, but I don’t think she’s ever proven herself to me vocally, even when the judges were pimping her =(.

She just hasn’t hit it yet. I hope she does next week. But the themes kill her.

I don’t know about her worst, but she definitely couldn’t hit the notes.

She’s not as good as we thought, but that being said, she’s much MUCH MUCH better than the prior Filipino, Jasmine Trias. And I’m not bringing her up to compare Filipino to Filipino… I brought up Jasmine, because Ramielle is better and Jasmine made the Top 3.

Carrie Underwood sang Alone way better!!! From a true Oklahoma Fan!!!

Carrie Underwood’s “Alone” stands as one of the best performances on American Idol ever. If you are going to sing “Alone” you have to best Carrie, because American Idol fans REMEMBER. So in this case, fail.

Rickey on March 25, 2008 at 11:41 pm

UGH.. that was bad. Totally the wrong song for her to choose.
I can’t feel bad for her though b/c when she does that pouty “i’m gonna act like I’m 6yrs old” shite when the judges don’t like it makes me want to karate chop her in her throat.

Pallaton on March 25, 2008 at 11:42 pm

TOTALLY AGREE, RICKEY! I feel the Gina came closer and Carly in Hollywood, as well, but neither could touch Carrie.

this song isn’t by carrie underwood. i know carrie underwood sung it on idol but… god, nothing compares to Heart. I LOVE heart and the tone and their conviction of the song was absolutely gorgeous.

We’re not talking HEART vs CARRIE… We’re talking IDOL RENDITION. Carrie sang it amazing. Was it Heart worthy? that’s not in question.

I like Carlys version more than Carries
what more do u want kids?
she stepped up her game which you ALL wanted after lackluster performances of Ramiele. now it was TOO BIG for her. she was sick. geez. i loved it. have some Filipino spirit fellow Pinoy posters (AHEM AHEMMMM) =)

i thought that it was really good. she did have some flat/sharp notes but most of her rendition was awesome. come on people, at least she’s risking it now and she’s trying her best right? that’s what matters. i bet that if she wasn’t sick she would’ve sounded close to carrie and better than carly.

Rickey, what happened to the support of Ramiele??? You surely can’t bail out on her now!!!

kyo2590 on March 26, 2008 at 12:34 am

I think she picked the right song,.. she didn’t have a choice because the good songs in 1987 are limited and i think this is the best song that could fit for her..

regin0 on March 26, 2008 at 12:36 am

AI is still bringing her down,they dressed her like whore pig.. the band was too soft,she was already belting the song and using her big voice but the band is just too soft and not keeping up with the song,theyre playing in pianississimo when it should be fortessissimo already..but i feel they wont be eliminating her yet..

slytherinz on March 26, 2008 at 12:41 am

she’s going to need every voter in hawaii (will jasmine fans bother?) and california–throw in florida, too–to save her. being first was bad enough, but that so-so performance, whether sick or not, just made it worse.

vonjobi on March 26, 2008 at 12:46 am

i’m a carrie fan too.. but guys this is season 7 we should leave the AI4 winner alone..

i admit ramiele wasn’t that good in this song but then carrie didnt sang the hardest part of the song (the alone alone belting)and ramiele did as high as she could go considering her conditon..the alterations of notes in the last part was very risky yet intelligent.. i hope you can see her talent too..

lets not lose hope guys.. this is what makes an idol… criticisms.. she will pull it through.. i know she will..

Pallaton, you’re scaring me!

Sick or not, that was terrible and she shouted through most of the song. You could see the strain all over her face while she was trying to get through that song! Another Jasmine??!

bfashion58 on March 26, 2008 at 8:25 am

She’s got a great voice! Great! But (in hindsight) I think she should have waited another year or two before she auditioned so she could show more control, poise and confidence… but I guess being an amateur and taking risks and not doing this perfectly is what makes it entertaining!

Performance like this and she may be singing “Alone” alone. It wasn’t good. She needs to learn to use her power voice without screaming. It should like her voice issues weren’t illness, but probably vocal cord strain and it showed. Sorry RM, probably time for you to leave.

jbeeeb on March 26, 2008 at 8:56 am

i’m sorry ramiele fans but that was dreadful. i don’t care if she’s sick. if she knew she couldn’t handle it she should’ve changed the song. remember that many idol contestants have sung while sick (Carrie did 2 weeks, was it 2? while sick but she was pretty good with both songs). fact of the matter is her voice isn’t as great and big as idol has pimped her up to be. she does not compare to the other contestants like carly, david c and brooke, who know what they’re capable of. sorry darling, but ramiele should leave.

This was by far the worst performance of the night. I have no idea how this girl is still on the show. I’m really upset with Paula and Randy for making excuses for her. A very talented contestant (Chikezie) left and this no-talent is still there. If she doesn’t start sounding better, she needs to go home. Her beating out any more talented contestants would be even more of a travesty than what occurred this week.

Hey i’ve watched the studio version of Ramiele’s “Alone” in You Tube and it’s awesome!!!
It was so different from her performance the other night and too bad she got sick when she had to perform…

check it out!!!

Aww, that was kinda bad. Hope she chooses wisely next week. You can do it Ramiele!
