This is why I love Canadian Idol! I can't think of any other performance-based reality show that would agree to such a ghoulish theme night. And it's not like they tried to soften the concept by using phrases like "artists who have passed on" or "artists who are no longer with us". Nope, it was a very blunt and unapologetic "artists who are dead". Every time the Mulrooligan said it, I cracked up.
And if Mark "Cod Cheeks" Day ever gets bounced, I think the next VFTW candidate should be Earl Stevenson. He is the absolute goofiest "hipster" since Taylor Hicks showed us why white men can't dance. Earl is like Kramer's mutant off-spring trying to be a rock star. The guy is a source of unintentional hilarity every time he hits the stage and just hugely entertaining.

Just like American Idol, the people behind Canadian Idol obviously don't do their research. Jeff Healy may have performed "Angel Eyes," but the song was written by John Hiatt, who is very much alive.

Theo Tams is first and he’s doing No Woman, No Cry and Theo will always be No Cry as he will always have No Woman. Through the first four weeks, Theo has easily been the laziest contestant in the history of the Idol franchise as he’s sat on his fat ass for every single one of his first four performances. And while he’s not sounding like Bob Marley, he’s showing as much life as him as he’s sitting on his fat lazy ass AGAIN. But towards the end of the song, we get a signal that something’s going to happen, and that signal comes in the form of a hideously sung note…Theo stands up! And it’s time to sit back down as this lazy fatty moves around like a bus with three flat tires. And this bus is about to crash as Theo proves that you, despite everything your parents and teachers told you, should never go out of your comfort zone…stay where you are, become fat, lazy, mediocre and maybe you too can reach the Top 5 of Canadian Idol, just like Dwight D'Eon and Matt Rapley.
Mitch MacDonald is next and he doesn’t care that the corpse of this next composer is still warm as he’s doing Jeff Healy’s Angel Eyes. It was a bummer when Jeff died but I’m a bit comforted knowing that he would’ve only had a short time to live had he been around to hear Mitch’s atrocious version tonight. I can’t even describe what Mitch sounds like anymore…a castrated chipmunk getting helium blown up his ass? Zack points out that Mitch has one of the most unique voices here, and tonight he found it uniquely annoying. Mitch better hope that his Cape Breton fans are even drunker than usual if he has any hope of surviving this week.
Now get ready to light the show on fire as Earl Stevenson’s next! He’s doing The Doors song and while Jim Morrison said it would be untrue if he said he couldn’t get much higher, I seriously doubt Earl could get much higher as he’s giving for my money his best performance yet, with all the grooviness mixed with severe spazzing and hipster-doofiness any of his fans could ever ask for. And the judges (and me) have reached a turning point tonight as we realize Earl is more than a joke and is ready to compete big-time on this show, so long as he doesn’t spaz his head or limbs off his body first. Zack says he’s never seen someone communicate so much without ever opening their eyelids, even Stevie Wonder. And Earl’s in shock over the judges’ praises, either that or he just realized Uhhhhh, I left my bag of weed in my pants when I did the laundry.
Time to do a 180-degree turn as Sebastian Pigott’s next. Ben tells us that the Idols have unearthed songs from some of the deadest stars ever, and Sebastian is the deadest Idol contestant ever as he’s doing a completely atrocious version of Love Me. And no wonder Jaybee Bixby is rocketing up the charts (and owning Brina Melo’s ass) as his 4 month non-stop Elvis impersonation was Mozart compared to Sebastian, who extended the record he broke long ago for longest run on an Idol show without singing a single correct note. The judges have had it… even Farley, who’s largely been a benign 400 pound blob for six seasons, suddenly awakens from his coma and tells Sebastian that while he’ll have a lot of messages on his answering machine when he gets back tonight for modeling, acting, along with gay porn and an even kinkier one from frogtard, they’ll be no messages offering record contracts. Congrats, Sebastian, you’ve set another Idol first…you’ve just been told to GET THE HELL OUT OF THE MUSIC BUSINESS!
It’s time for 5 minutes of head scratching as Drew Wright’s next. Who the hell’s voting for this gnome-like creature? He’s doing No Rain by Blind Melon and Ben reminds us the extremely annoying singer died of a drug overdose, and I’m kind of jealous right now as I’d prefer to never see Drew again. He’s been told he’s the biggest stiff ever on Idol so he’s trying to make up for it tonight by wearing a stupid hat and flapping around like a chicken. Congratulations Drew, you’re no longer the biggest stiff ever on the show (Amberly’s coming up in a minute), you’re now just the biggest spaz ever on the show, at least till Mookie performs in a minute. And we may have finally figured out why Drew is still on the show as his apparent lover Ben, after last week holding out a special message for his new bum buddy Drew on his palm, now comes out dressed in a bumble bee suit, the same one he wore last night when they were practicing for a play down at the Community Center (Only Canadians and fans of TPB will get that one!).
Mookie Morris is next and Ben reminds us that the only way to be on the show tonight is to be dead, and Mookie may shortly be joining this list due to alcohol as he’s giving us the most drunk performance we’ve seen since Taylor Hicks won Idol. He’s doing James Brown’s I Feel Good but he Dance Bad. Mookie’s bringing everything we’d expect of a drunk performance (sans gray hair and purple velvet jacket) as he’s running around the audience like a jackass, mumbling the words, flirting with old women, before finally flopping on the stage like a decrepit drunk. Zack says that he…ZOMG, never mind…CI Tranny Hairdresser sighting!1!
CTV knows there’s only one way to wake Canada, and VFTW, up after Amberly’s death march…one fabulous, chubby Newfie grape way, as CTV knows what’s good for them as they give VFTW choice Mark Day tonight’s pimp spot. Last week, Mark Day ascended to VFTW legendary status, and international figure too, with his instant VFTW Hall Of Fame performance of Dancing In The Streets. And even Mark knows that he needs to be a bit more serious this week as he got the biggest sign possible that you’re a joke, getting an entry on PerezHilton. But Mark perfectly understands what being a Worster is, either that or this is the all-time gift from God, as he subtlety tells us he loves us by doing Dance With My Father, the most infamous performance by one of VFTW’s all-time favorite fatties, Fafu Scott Savol. Mark’s smart and he’s giving a serious (well, pretty serious) performance this week, allowing him to stick around for many more blazingly fabulous performances to come. And while we’ll have to wait for more dancing, tonight’s about subtlety as Mark ends by giving VFTW another clear signal…crying like a chubby Newfie grape. Just in case we couldn’t tell when Jake tried to humiliate Mark last week (and Mark gave him a big middle finger with his fake crying!), he thought last week was a joke. But what’s no joke is that Zack is still in shock from Mark shaking his fabulous butt in his face as our once shy grape has now transformed into Cod Cheeks!
