This week we were back to the rock ‘n’ roll, which is right for Supernova. What some viewers may have feared is originals, but both Patrice (left) and Ryan showed song writing chops as well as great performances.
Patrice, in particular, had a great poppy rocker with her Beautiful Thing. Dave Navarro got a round of boos for suggesting to Patrice that maybe a solo career is the way to go, but I’d have to agree. She probably would not be a good fit with the metal vets — Beautiful Thing seemed reminiscent of, say, The Smithereens, pop with a little grit. But I’d love to hear the Patrice Pike solo album. Ryan’s solo turn was easily the best thing he’s done on the show.
When I started this entertainment journalism thing, I remember talking to a singer named Danielle Brisbois about how great Kurt Cobain would be without a guitar. Magni showed us how that would look with his rendition of Teen Spirit. Another scorcher. It was interesting then that the band advised the singers to play and trash instruments during the show — which Ryan subsequently did. Hope Supernova is ready pony up for a bunch of shattered Les Pauls. 
I guess Dilana’s Every Breath You Take was good, but those eyelashes were really freaking me out. Looked like they were going to take flight. Weird.
But the band has been taking a shine to Dilana and Ryan, while they seem to have run out of superlatives for Magni and Storm.
Being a giving person worked for Storm, though, who showed she had no reason to worry with Aerosmith’s Crying. But still, she’s in danger of the bottom three, again.
This could be the most interesting bottom three so far, because no one crashed. So it will probably depend on fan bases and taste more than anything. That’s why I still fear for Patrice, because as much as I liked that performance, as good as it was, I don’t think she is the Supernova fans’ choice. But the reason Patrice can rest easy is I have yet to be right predicting who will be booted, so see you next week.

BTW, the elimination show will be at the usual time, 8 p.m. Wednesday. If that 10 p.m. timeslot tonight threw you, seeing Big Brother was also a reminder how truly awful reality TV can be.
