Julien | Moi Lolita

Julien Doré chose to sing Moi Lolita tonight and I was so impressed. I didn’t know the song but I loved his performance. He really is unique, talented, and most definitely entertaining. The only thing stopping him from going all the way is that, while some people love him, others hate him. He’s not one that will be appreciated by the mass public. However, he could have enough support to win and I really hope so. Four blues from the jury and he deserved that. Totally exceptional, said Manu. Marianne said it was a quality performance and an original performance. Andre said it was sublime and thanked him for being on the show. Dove said he’s a real artist.

Julien | Light My Fire

Light My Fire by the Doors as performed by Julien. This song is perfect for Julien. Sometimes I wonder if Julien isn’t just taking the piss. He’s entertaining but ridiculous at the same time. I loved his performance. Go Julien! Dove said Julien is a great artist but he might not be popular with the general public. Marianne was being stupid but it didn’t matter, everyone understood that he was brilliant.

So in summary, Pierre and Julien were great as usual. Alex will most likely be out although Soma and Julie are at risk of getting kicked out too.

Julien | Mourir Sur Scene

Another standing ovation tonight for Julien who sang Mourir Sur Scene. No surprise that he got 4 blues again. Dove said nothing. Marianne said he’s a prodigy. Manu said he could be a success in France or internationally. They all loved his performance once again.

Julien | Strangers in the Night

Not as good as last week. I loved Moi Lolita. I don’t know. They’re all boring tonight. I’m so disappointed. The crowd is going crazy. They love him and so do the judges. Four blues again. Dove said he didn’t try to do too much and that was the way to go with that song. Extremely touched was Marianne. He as a rare talent said both Dove and Marianne. Marianne finished by saying ‘It’s always great to listen to you.’

Raphaelle is heading the way tonight with her version of Goldfinger followed by Julien. Let’s hope for a bit more in the next round of songs.

Julien | Baby One More Time

Julien chose to sing a Britney Spears song, Baby One More Time. Who’d have thought he could turn such a boring crappy song into something completely wild but equally crappy I’d say! I think he’s a bit of a dick but I can’t help but like him anyway. He puts the others to shame as far as being a performer is concerned. What did the jury think of this crazy performance? Four big, bright blues, just like his eyes. Marianne said she preferred the beginning and said it was a much better performance than last week. Dove said he preferred the end of the song over the beginning because he was surprised, which he loves. Manu loved both parts of the song. It was very ’arty’ which he loves. Andre said it was the first time in the competition that they have had a real artist performing. I’m a bit with Marianne, I like when he sings seriously but he’s a great performer either way. It’s never boring with Julien around!

Julien | Vanina

The final performance of the night is Julien singing Vanina by Dave, a song from the 70’s . He can sing so well when he really wants to and in this performance he did exactly that. Fantastic. I don’t know what to say. If he doesn’t win this competition there’s something seriously wrong with the French public. One red from Manu. Manu thought he wasn’t convincing in his performance. Marianne said it was incredibly good. He sang in his own way as usual and it was great. Andre said he took another risk and it was a pure creation of his own which was super sexy. Dove said he agreed a bit with Manu and would like to see him go further next week, if he makes it through to the final.

Julien | Tainted Love

Julien sings Tainted Love by Soft Cell. Another unique and brilliant performance which I loved. A standing ovation from the crowd and Marianne and Dove. Four blues from the judges which he deserved. Manu said another exceptional performance. Marianne said it was extraordinary vocally. She said the technique he used for singing that song was extremely difficult and she was amazed he was able to do it. She also said the others are so far behind him. Dove said he can sing anything because he has the rock attitude and he shouldn’t worry about what others think.
