Looking forward to 'Idol' Top 10
![]() testing captions I'm not even going to lie; the main draw for me tonight is Usher. I dig him, and I am anxious to see if he inspires the Top 10. He's been in the business since he was a kid, and he's got a great voice. Mostly I'm hoping he can impart some swagger to help this year's group kick it up a bit. The show just started, and why was it necessary for Simon to kiss Ellen? Funny how Kara dodged Randy's kiss. Better luck next time buddy. And we are off! |

Casey, Lee, Mamasox, and Siobahn thats the best 4 – Hands down! These will be the top 4, mark my words, all the rest will go home before these 4. Big Mike is a dark horse, but again, I don't get the hype....plain.
Casey was the BOMB last night, and Lee was right there with him! Those were the hands down best last night! Lots of energy from both great song choice and they were on it!
Mamasox was good but nearly her best performance, definitly needs to go back to her style and not try to please the minority – show dog mom – she seemed uncomfortable and a little off her stride.
Siobahn was really good, much better than last week. I dont know why the judges slammed her; she was WAY better than Aaron, Katie, Didi, and Big Mike!
Big Mike – sorry don't get the hype with him. I havent seen any big songs yet everything is a slow song or a ballad. Nothing with any pop or get up and dance to it.
Crystal Lee Aaron & Casey tops
Crystal is good
Lee his voice is great
Aaron to be 17 years old compared to the older ones he should be the next American Idol
Casey still stiff acts girlish needs to be more manly and sing country
Lee is for me
ryan said it makes me wonder what is going on in his mind when he said that
I think crystal is gonna win this year
OMG did I just hear Ryan tell Aaron "that some people like cupcakes rather than a entree.... dessert people" Ryan, really?!?!?
sorry Tim but you need help
Aaron kelly is another winner to me
I wish she'd do something with those teeth though
In a league of her own. Always has, always will.
I agree that Casey had a Clapton vibe. That being said, this season is about as lackluster as an elephant hide-I am trying to abuse similes a la Simon Cowell. Lee is lame and sings within a range of five notes. Crystal is fantastic-thank goodness for her, otherwise, I am turning off the DVR and calling it a night.
i like how crystal fights back at simon
BINGO....we have a winner!
Crystal BLOWYOURSOXS off!
init to win it.....she is the winner
so far crystal is the best tonight
she is a ringer!
yea baby.....this is the real deal!!!
Lee..... Lee....Lee.........Wwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeee! That was one heck of a ride! Nice work!
FINALLY... wtg Lee!!
Lee did good.
I wish todderick would be in the top 10, andrew should not been in top 10
I am waiting for Aaron to hit one. It may be this week.
I like Aaron Kelly he is good but he needs to come out of that shell, and not be afraid
Like i said davinlcutch it was ok, she had better performances.
Yup, moving on...
I miss Star Search, they need a twist like that
OK. It wasn't that good. NEXT.
Show is getting old, they need a new twist to the show
I wonder who is gonna replace Simon, since i heard this is his last show
this show is getting very boring
They need Paula back ugh, Ellen is not cut out for this
she is so much better than the rest but now bring on the best
Katie performance was ok, its not her best. to me.
i love tim to death, he smiles and doesnt let anything bother him
the 16 yr old boy he is really good and i think he is gonna make it through
Andrew bores me like seriously
now I understand were he get his good looks from!
Andrew.... NICE! VERY NICE!
Simon nailed this one
bring back Paula<<
Ok, this is beginning to get painful...
is it me or are Siobhan and Andrew swapping glasses from week to week?
here comes Andrew.....another waste of time!
I totally agree Kara..... the soul was taken out of that song. EEEK!
no because didi is going- tim next week
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKoKpYsTz9c listen to the way it's sung.....
OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! Teflon Tim....its gonna stick this week!
Woah... not a good night for Tim
Tim get a haircut
I agree with all the judges on DiDi. PERIOD.
Agreed.
this is easy goodbye Didi
OK. ENOUGH! She's crying even before she hits the stage. UGH!
Simon's happy tonight lol
Big Mike = Big Suprise Winner! GREAT!
Whoa...I started watching the show a couple weeks in and never saw Big Mike with the guitar. Was he doing that earlier too?
Really, really nice performance by the big guy. I'm not sure how much he's really bringing with the guitar but musically (vocally I mean) THAT was a very powerful statement. You don't have to be all over the stage to connect with your audience. That one got the chill factor going for me.
Big Mike.......excellent job!! Really good job!!!!
sorry Michael-nice guy but to plain............
I agree with mozart4898's comment regarding Casey. He's good but there are 1000's like him across North America. Singers and guitar players alike. Saying that however, you have to have the whole package if you are going to have a chance at making it; Casey appears to have the whole package.
Casey would be a great front man for a band. Appealing and good singer. But at the end of the day – lots of Casey's out there.
Bowersox is amazing!! Agreed.
ok..... I am not a Casey James fan...... but that was pretty good. It felt like a great fitting pair of jeans.
Scary to see them forgetting the words in rehearsal...but yeah, Casey's sounding pretty good. I'll say what I said before though – I've heard singers just like him in plenty of bar bands before. Granted there's plenty of them worse than him but I'm just not blown away. He's a solid rock/blues singer and guitar player but not anything that new. But safe.
honestly this competion ended weeks ago – Crystal Bowersox just blows the rest out of the water
The more I think about it, I think that performance by Siobhan kinda exposed her weakness. She's got a nice solid lower register, and then the capability to "scream" those notes out too. Her problem is the break between the two – you could hear when she jumped from one range to the other how she'd lose her pitch...
Siobhan, sorry girl. Not so good. But you will be safe. Oh my, are the judges easily offended this year.
You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh
I admit I am tired of the screaming from Siobhan, but the judges made her sound like she was the worst! Go home judges, you're a bunch of idiots! Aside from the screaming, I think she did ok.
enough is enough Siobhan!!! Try singing next time. I agree with Simon as far as the screaming is concerned. To tell you the truth, her voice was weak and had awful tonality...sorry
man she really screamed that one out of tune
Siobhan – pretty girl but- first she should take the earing out of her nose then she should go for singing lessons–say goodnight and goodby Siobhan
Well...Siobhan certainly didn't knock that one out of the park...some of it was strong, but there were some parts that were like "huh???? hmmm...."
I agree with you Lisa, I think Usher is an amazingly talented artist, even though I don't particularly 'dig' a lot of his songs, you can't deny the talent and knowledge he has in creating himself and recreating himself to stay current. It would have been nice to see his help for Todrick, with the dance and song combination.
