The term is still one of the most misunderstood in the musical lexicon. Is it the source of all bad fashion? Alounge-worthy soundtrack for swinging lovers? A category almost exclusively occupied by Donna Summer and the Bee Gees? This battle round implied all of the above, while doing nothing to illuminate this wonderful, misunderstood pop era. Instead of reveling in lush, open field of sultry rhythms and sweeping melodic lines, the Top 7took it to Vegas, the rock arenaand other ill-advised corners, with hackneyed arrangements and awkward performances that suggested the whole crew had already busted into the Tab Energy Drink cooler backstage.

Those who adhered to the style at all stumbled trying to hit its turns, and even those who sang well seemed strangely immune to the joy that had once helped millions find heaven on the dance floor. Perhaps I am being too harsh. There were high points, none wholly unexpected. Adam Lambert knows by now that voters who find his rock side too freaky melt under the electric torch of his ballads; transforming the Gibb broth- ers-writtenYvonne Elliman hit I Have into a Piaf-worthy cri de couer he was just playing to the crowd. Kris Allen made ode to working girls, Works Hard for the sound like that song Carlos Santana did with Wyclef but such clever switches have become his trademark.

And AllisonIraheta, looking outrageously great, lent a goth- metal twist to another Summer song, Fine. But she could have unearthed her inner Deborah Harry, already so near the surface, with of And the thought of what Lambert could have done with prideful anthem Make Me Feel (Mighty that missed chance breaks my heart. With one exception, hardly worth mentioning the other strivers. Lil Rounds and Matt Giraud seemed resigned to the chopping block; Anoop Desai, still in full mode, got a little too casual with his bravado while turning yet another Summer tune, All the into a homage to Brian McKnight. Danny Gokey does deserve credit for a spirited and accurate vocal on an Earth, Wind and Fire song with a typically serpentine melody.

But that hoofing! Never has the specter of Taylor Hicks loomed so large. Ultimately, the problem with the singers; it was a larger one, embedded in the formula. Despite its Velveeta reputation, disco actually vastly expanded parameters, uniting funk beats and rock guitars, synthesizer swirls and gospel vocals, the sexual fantasies of libertine Italian producers and the liberating wails of black American divas. Oh, and ABBA! The musical range traverses is tiny by comparison. basically crossover pop played by a competent studio band steeped in the grand inflections of Celine Dion, Bryan Adams and other blockbuster stars.

nearly impossible for an competitor to transcend the limits of the formulas (though Lambert keeps pushing). Disco might not have seemed the likeliest arena in which these deficiencies would be exposed, but all it would take is one time-machine trip back to one of the great hedonistic dance floors of the 1970s to remind a music lover how much more expansive music seemed then. Still, the thought of Simon doing the bump? I think rather suffer through Whitney week. ann.powers@latimes.com IDOL TRACKER: Performances Their disco fever is low-grade at best ANN POWERS POP MUSIC CRITIC ProgramNet- work Viewers ProgramNet- work Viewers 1 American Idol FOX24.38 2 American Idol 3 Dancing With the StarsABC19.46 4 CSICBS15.72 5 Dancing With the Stars (results) ABC15.24 ------------------------------------------6 Two and a Half MenCBS15.03 7 Desperate HousewivesABC13.85 8 NCISCBS13.56 9 CSI: MiamiCBS13.38 10 Without a TraceCBS13.23 ------------------------------------------11 HouseFOX12.19 12 The MentalistCBS12.18 13 CSI: NYCBS12.14 14 60 MinutesCBS12.04 15 Survivor: TocantinsCBS11.64 ------------------------------------------16 Rules of EngagementCBS11.60 17 Bones (Wed.)
