i think lacey has a beautiful voice but I'm afraid she doesn't really know how to choose songs. maybe she can grow in the coming weeks, if given the chance.
I say all the vocalists without the instruments and just power out some songs need to go this year. I want to see the unplugged guitar vocalists battle it out.
Siobahn and Crystal are the two girls to beat. I love Siobahn. She's so dark and mysterious yet fun and energetic at the same time. It's a crazy dynamic. I think she can be a star. I've liked Lacy from day one and I'm glad she finally did something last night to impress the judges. Unfortunately I think she will be a bottom 4 vote getter again this week, but she should definitely be safe. The young girl needs to go. She just doesn't have anything to offer. I feel bad for Paige because she didn't need to be strong this week to survive past the leggy hair monster, just ok. Unfortunately she wasn't even ok. I think she sunk herself which sucks for her.
I agree, these are the only two girls that I'm impressed with at this point. Crystal seems like a real pro when she performs. Siobahn seems very young and unsure of herself, but has a lot of talent and we should see her grow from week to week.
Mike Lynche was really good (though I can't say I'd enjoy that type of music on the radio.. but whatever, he still did a good job) The rest.. I almost want to lump them all together. Some better vocals, some more difficult songs, some boring...just a bunch of up and down stuff. Based only on this week, I'd pick Andrew to go (but he was my favorite coming in, so hopefully not).. and then one out of Casey/Aaron/Todrick Who I wish would go? Tim (even though he did alright this week) and Todrick
i guess i'm gonna be in a very small minority on this one, but i honestly think michael lynche is the worst of the 8 remaining guys. "pitchy" is an understatement with him, and i can't help but compare him to ruben studdard, who was roughly 100 times better than him. don't understand why the hell the judges are slobbering all over him, but i have a feeling that's going to change over the next few weeks. the guy is goofy and can't sing. pretty much agree with your assessment on the rest of them, although i think alex lambert may have the best voice i've heard since the show has been on. it's pretty hard to pluck 2 out who are going home tomorrow. i think one has to be a shocker, and could even be somebody like the dwyer kid, especially because he went first.
I loveee R&B but I definetely was not wow'd by Big Mike's performance. What made it even weirder was the way the judges were praising it to the heavens especially kara who was crying? I agree...Ruben was better. How bad was andrew? He was def one of my faves going into the competition but he ruined it by singing "genie in a bottle" almost laughable Alex has a beautiful voice but he needs some self confidence and not look like he's gonna puke all over the stage. Casey and Lee are good...but they both need to step it up on their song choices. aaron, todrick, tim were meh Going Home: Aaron & Tim or Andrew - Paige and Lacey or Katie.
I'm with you guys that Mike wasn't a "wow" like the judges made him out to be. Kara was over the top. There have been wow performances in past years.. there have been better performances this season. But I still thought he was probably the most consistent of the guys last night, and he attempted to do one of the more difficult vocals. So that's why I still have him as the only "winner" yesterday
the kid who is the youngest (don't know their names) is really not enjoyable at all. He seems to sing okay, and Simon seems gravitated to these types - probably because it's been proven that there is a market for the Clay Aikens, David Archuwhatevers of the world - but it's really bad.
Agree. But I still think Tim and Todrick are both not enjoyable AND untalented.. so i'd give that guy (aaron) one more week
True. The only guys that I find mildly entertaining are: (1) the guy who went first last night with the Firefly song, (2) the guy that Kara is in love with who took his shirt off that one time, but does actually have a good soulful voice/persona, and (3) the mullet kid - whose a little douchey himself, but you just got to like, plus he has a great voice. In fourth would be the Paula Abdul latino glasses guy. In fifth would be the green mile huge guy that made Kara cry. Sixth = Aaron. Seventh = Todrick. Eight = Tim.
this has been the most shocking eliminations shows ever. tim and aaron over alex lambert? katie over lilly? paige over katelyn? i don't know what to say.
Usually when I disagree with the results, I can at least see where America was coming from. Not tonight. Lilly and Alex ABSOLUTELY should have been in the top 12.
the judges totally screwed him man. pretty sad. unnecessarily told dumb joe public that he was way more nervous than he even was. oh well. i guess siobhan is the only one left that i even like at all.
There are so many people in the top 12 undeserving of it. Aaron, Katie, Tim, Paige...and Andrew should be kicked out for that terrible Christina Agulera song. Alex got so screwed, and Time should have been gone after ruining Apologize in week 1. I can say with confidence that Aaron will be gone next week. No way he can pull off the Rolling Stones. All he has done is terribly cliche Rascal Flatts songs all season, will not be able to do the Stones.
