The results are in for the Top 5. Once again Toronto shows it is too cool for Canadian Idol and leaves a hometown boy dangling in the wind. That’s right – the guy who the judges have been calling rockstar since before they cut the pack down to the top 24, Mookie Morris, namesake of Montreal Expos great Mookie Wilson, is history (just like the Expos).
Last night Mookie did Come Together and looked his usual cool dude doing it; Beatle boots, some great Mick Jagger slip-slidy foot work, marching band jacket. He didn’t go the Abbey Road route and he didn’t cop from Aerosmith. His arrangement (if indeed it was his – the kid’s 18 fer gawd’s sake) was unique and that alone should have gotten him some consideration.
Best thing about the results was when Mulroney, having identified Mookie and Drew as the bottom two, asked judge Jake Gold what Mookie should do if he lost. Jake said Mookie should call him in the morning.
But you can’t beat the hometown vibe. So who will win of the top 4? Will the next Canadian Idol be Lethbridge, Lloydminister, Port Hood or Collingwood?
