July 8 So You Think You Can Dance - My Thoughts...

From the July 8th episode of SYTYCD:

  • Melissa Sandviga and Ade Obayomi danced Disco to the song “Move On Up” —Destination choreographed by Doriana Sanchez
    Wow, Ade was powerful in this.... Melissa, as always, was beautiful.

  • Melissa Sandviga and Ade Obayomi danced Waltz to the song “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” —Mary J. Blige choreographed by Ron Montez
    I really enjoyed the "raw"ness of this routine.

    I think they may be bottom three, however, because they didn't really stand out... at least to me.

  • Kayla Radomski and Kupono Aweau danced Contemporary to the song “Gravity” —Sara Bareilles choreographed by Mia Michaels
    This was absolutely amazing to me. Kayla without make-up, very emotional, the clip before def. showed the closeness Kapono felt to the theme (Addiction) and I think it was amazing and beautifully executed.

  • Kayla Radomski and Kupono Aweau danced Broadway to the song “The Dance At the Gym” from West Side Story choreographed by Joey Dowling
    I really liked it a lot but i preferred their first routine.

  • Caitlin Kinney and Jason Glover danced Foxtrot to the song “Minnie the Moocher” —Big Bad Voodoo Daddy choreographed by Tony Meredith and Melanie LaPatin
    I love Caitlin and Jason and I really liked this routine.

  • Caitlin Kinney and Jason Glover danced Lyrical jazz to the song “Show Me Heaven” —Maria McKee choreographed by Mandy Moore
    This was so beautiful and graceful and wonderful.... Still, I think they may be tossed into the Bottom 3 again :(

  • Jeanine Mason and Phillip Chbeeb danced Russian folk dance to the song “Kalinka” —Barynya choreographed by Youri Nelzine and Lilia Babenko
    I agree with "Dizzy feet" it wasn't great... I felt it very.... commercially Russian... if that makes sense...

  • Jeanine Mason and Phillip Chbeeb danced Jive to the song “Stuff Like That There” —Bette Midler choreographed by Tony Meredith and Melanie LaPatin
    I thought they did wonderfully in this but I fear it may not be enough to keep them out of the tbottom three, despite Phillip's huge following

  • Randi Evans and Evan Kasprzak danced Hip-hop to the song “Halo” —Beyoncé Knowles choreographed by Tabitha D’umo and Napoleon D’umo
    Um - hello? WONDERFUL! I was so very impressed with the way they did this, I agree that NappyTabs chereographed to their strengths, allowing them to be themselves within the hip hop and it worked... well!

  • Randi Evans and Evan Kasprzak danced Samba to the song “Ritmo De Bum Bom”—Jababa choreographyed by Anya Garnis and Pasha Kovalev
    This was a good routine but they weren't passionate enough, they are so cute together, I am sad to see the couple split next week.

  • Janette Manrara and Brandon Bryant danced Argentine Tango to the song “Libertango” from Forever Tango choreographed by Miriam Larici and Leonardo Barrionuevo
    This was amazing. I am not an expert so I wasn't sure if they were nailing those leg moves or not... but the judges say they did and they are the experts...

  • Janette Manrara and Brandon Bryant danced Jazz to the song “Ruby Blue” —Róisín Murphy choreographed by Wade Robson

    A-friggin'-MAZING.... Wade Robson is freaking awesome, these two dancers are freaking awesome, if they were in bottom three i'd wonder what American was smoking ...

    So bottom three - my predictions - - -

    Jeanine Mason and Phillip Chbeeb

    Melissa Sandviga and Ade Obayomi

    Caitlin Kinney and Jason Glover

    Not that I WANT that I just predict that...

    And without seeing their solo's I would say Jason and Caitlin go home... *shrugs* I really don't know.... I worry Evan and Randi may be bottom 3 and that would throw things around.... also Phillip may have come as far as he can, he always rocks the solos and he is growing with all these new styles and his fan base is high... as is Kayla's.... despite being thrown in bottom 3... argh! I don't know this week... I really don't!
