Jobby:
Lil Rounds, 23, Memphis, Tenn., “The Way You Make Me Feel”:
She was good! What a way to kick off the show and put pressure on all the other contestants! I was grooving to her song and although she had a weak start, but that's just because it's the pressure of being the first. Overall, a good but forgettable performance. Simon was spot on, "lazy song choice" and like what i've mentioned, forgettable.

Scott MacIntyre, 23, Scottsdale, Ariz., “Keep the Faith”:
For me, the ending was abit rough for me as he was nearly finishing the song. But it was a good performance and i enjoyed it. Weird song choice, Simon and Randy was right.. it was abit too safe for me.

Danny Gokey, 28, Milwaukee, “Pretty Young Thing”:
Powerful vocals, powerful performance. Weak starting but i'm impressed. Funny dancing though and it was a very "free" performance, just going all out. Great, best so far.

Michael Sarver, 27, Jasper, Texas, “You Are Not Alone”:
Wow, he has got a good voice. I love his song choice and I got chills just from listening him sing. He can sing, and as an oil rigger and in this current economy the everyday working man is going to touch the hearts of America. I thought he could be in danger in the top 13, but what i heard was big passion. Great, he's going to be safe.

Jasmine Murray, 17, Starkville, Miss., “I’ll Be There”:
I like her performance. It was definitely better than my expectation and i think she did good. She's going to have a hard time surviving though, as the wildcard with the lowest popularity. And i think she lacked abit of self-confidence and kinda lost focus halfway through the song while singing. I really hope she gets through to the next round though. I like her. :)

Kris Allen, 23, Conway, Ark. “Do You Remember the Time”:
Being the guy who seems to be flying the radar and still not making any impression, i think he did well enough to survive another week. It was abit boring at times during his performance. But it was good.

Allison Iraheta, 16, Los Angeles, “Give In To Me”:
It was a performance true to herself, it was very good and i think she rocked the stage! Not as good as her previous performance, but it was definitely good enough for me. And i think she'll make it to the top 6 at least, if she continues to take the stage and impress, and surprises us sometimes perhaps with a sexy song choice or what. :funny:

Anoop Desai, 21, Chapel Hill, “Beat It”:
Wow, he has got big fans now! Big likable personality and it's hard not to like him! Wow, blown away by his performance, wasn't the best vocals. But wow, i enjoyed it totally. Love his performance and i think he did good! I hope he stays! Totally disagreed with the judges. I like it! :funny: But I think he's in trouble...

Jorge Nunez, 20, Carolina, Puerto Rico, “Never Can Say Goodbye”:
He previously gave me the impression that he can sing, and he proved it to me today again. HOWEVER, his song choice was cheesy, unexciting, boring and it might really put him in danger. I didn't like it and it was one of those "i don't care and am going to fast forward" performances. :( I'm going to say he's going to be in some danger tomorrow as well.

Megan Corkrey, 22, Sandy, Utah, “Rockin’ Robin”:
I really really like Megan and I thought that was the most awww video for the night. I enjoyed her performance at least and i think an enjoyable performance is better than a boring performance!

Adam Lambert, 26, Los Angeles, “Black or White”:
Incredible vocals. Good performance. Love the song, and i think it made Paula hopelessly impressed and love him to the depth. Anyway, i do realize sometimes he appears to be screaming or shrieking.. gotta be careful. But tonight he was exceptional! But he took the stage amazingly! Love his performance, was blown away by him!

Matt Giraud, 23, Kalamazoo, Mich., “Human Nature”:
Soulful performance, great piano and great singing. He can hit the high notes and that's amazing. Seriously. He's not going to win with all those crazy guys around.. but he's going to go far if he continue to do well.

Alexis Grace, 20, Memphis, Tenn., “Dirty Diana”:
I love the singing, the attitude and i think she's great. Love her loads and i hope she stays! And i think she's going to and continue to impress us for another few weeks. She really looked like a star and worked the stage like an artist! Love love love her!

My Top 3 performances:
1. Adam
2. Allison
3. Alexis

My Bottom 3 performances:
1. Jorge
2. Kris
3. Jasmine

Who I think might be in DANGER:
1. Jorge
2. Kris
3. Jasmine
4. Megan

Who I think will be going home:
1. Jorge
2. Jasmine :'( :(

But i'm going to give props to the Top 13. A totally enjoyable performance night. At least more than half blew me away and i've got to say, best Top 12/13 finalists EVER! Now i seriously hope Kris and Jorge are going home tomorrow and that all the girls will at least survive another round. :'(

DialIdol Predictions -



Shocked that Allison is at the bottom, but hope it does not indicate she's going home. But i've got to say Jorge, Jasmine, Kris and Megan might be toast.. going from their performance and how the line busy signal shows.. and Anoop is just too likable to be going home. Based on the votes at least. But the judges might always pull out a new twist and eliminate one person they choose.

TexasLady:
I am fairly certain Jorge is gong home, which is sad because he hasn't been able to show his power. Michael Jackson songs are not what he should be singing. Simon hated his performance and also the arrangement which is not Jorge's fault. Simon gave him the KOD critique. I hate that one of the more interesting and different singers will be gone.

I'm not sure who else will be going, I think we heard some iffy singing last night. Jasmine, who I like, was flat. There is no other word for it. Anoop picked the absolute worst song to sing, "Beat It." You just never pick a song so identified with another singer and it was detrimental to him. All four judges slammed him with the KOD from Simon. If DialIdol numbers hold up and they usually do, he will be safe.

I was not enamored with Kris Allen and even before Simon made his comment about the wife, I told my hubby that it was a bad mistake. You want the young girls calling in.  :lol:

I didn't like Danny's song choice, "PYT" (Pretty Young Thing) but I like him and the judges like him.

I know this isn't PC and I will probably get hate mail, but I think Scott is one of the weaker singers this season. Both Simon and Randy made comments that should be a warning to him, pick better songs and step it up or you'll be gone.

Adam Lambert is just way above and beyond the others. He's not in the same league. I think he can screech and go over the top but he's got "IT," he's the total package performance, appearance and showmanship. He's got to be careful though, not to be suggestive with the crotch/hand thing (i.e. when he sang Satisfaction) because this is a family show.

I loved Lil Rounds, she looked beautiful and fie on Simon for critiquing her outfit.

Ruth:
My thoughts on tonight.

Lil Rounds - It was good, but not great. I wasn't blown away. She'll be fine though.

Scott MacIntyre - Too safe in my opinion, but I still love him for his feel.

Danny Gokey - Vocal-wise, this is the guy to beat. Somehow I'm not really crazy over him now. Anyone thinks his dance moves bring a Taylor Hicks feel? Lol!

Michael Sarver - Thought he'd be in danger this week but after his heartfelt performance, he's so staying. And America loves him! I really like him, I think he's very humble and down-to-earth.

Jasmine Murray - I thought her performance was pretty forgettable and the song was a little too dark. She could be in danger this week.

Kris Allen - Not my favourite performance, but enough to buy him another week I guess. He's really likeable.

Allison Iraheta - One of my favourites of the night. She can really sing. But she shouldn't do the same thing week after week, it's gonna get boring. Hope America votes for her tonight!

Anoop Desai - I thought the performance was rather forgettable. But I like him, and I'm sure he'll be around, America loves him too!

Jorge Nunez - Totally wrong song choice. He could be going home this week. Which is a pity, he's such a nice guy and he does have a great voice.

Megan Corkrey - Another wrong song choice, another one that will probably be in danger. And it feels that she's doing the same genres of songs week after week. She's got to start doing some different things, otherwise she'll be gone pretty soon. But I really like her!

Adam Lambert - Best performance of the night in my opinion, I loved it. I really like him now, rooting for him all the way!

Matt Giraud - Simon's right, it's hard to impress being behind Adam. I thought it was a good performance, didn't blow me away though.

Alexis Grace - The judges commented that it's a little overdone but I loved the performance. I really like her, but a part of me is worried she might be in trouble just due to her number. Please don't let that be! Hee.

My rankings of performance:
1. Adam Lambert
2. Allison Iraheta (please vote for her)
3. Alexis Grace
4. Danny Gokey
5. Michael Sarver
6. Lil Rounds
7. Scott Macintyre
8. Matt Giraud
9. Kris Allen
10. Megan Corkrey
11. Anoop Desai
12. Jorge Nunez
13. Jasmine Murray (simply cos I can't remember anything about it)

Who I think will be in trouble
1. Jorge Nunez
2. Megan Corkrey
3. Jasmine Murray

Guess any of these three could go home, I'm hoping it's Jorge and Jasmine, hee.
