Commenting as I watch (highlights -Lowlights):
Geddeon - I liked him last week, but he was trying too hard this week. Chris - Very talented. I hate him. It's like he's the lead singer from Nickel Creedback Teenage Moelster". This song was bad, but he'll make the top 4-5. Kevin - I am the biggest Don McLean fan ever (perhaps literally), and I was more disgusted than I ever have been in AI. "Vincent" is a soft, soulful song, and he tried to turn it into an emotionally-bereft power ballad. Add in the fact that he is AWFUL, and I would have slapped him if I were in attendance. Bucky - He's a hick and I hate "modern country", but I just like the guy. *shrug* Will - Terrible. Period. Gone tomorrow. Taylor - My favorite AI contestant was back on his game again. After being off for the first line of his song, he just kicked ass. So much passion and so much charisma. He should win this show easily. Elliott - My second favorite on the show, he has the best overall voice. This song he sang was bad for him. It was impotent. It was on key and such, but it was hopelessly weak in emotion. I expect him to pick it up next week. Ace - Awful. If he wasn't "pretty", he'd be gone long ago. As my wife put it, "Knowingly flaunting that you are beautiful, while being an average-to-crappy singer, means that you are junk". I love that woman.

Here are my predicitons as to who will go home. FYI I have not missed yet.
Guys: Will Kevin Girls: Melissa Kinnik There you go guys. Call up Vegas and throw some money on those contestants going home.

Taylor vs. Mandisa The only contestants with soul and personality. This is my hope, but I have an awful feeling that it will be Chris (blah) vs. Lisa (not ready).

It's a pity 6 girls have to go through because I think the judges are right, the guys are much better. The only performances I didn't like were Kevin's and Will's. Chris was only ok for me, surprising coz he was really good the past 2 weeks. And the Ace falsetto thing was just odd .. guy comes out dressed to rock and then he's like all girly :P
Overall, the guys were good. Performance I really liked was Gadeon's and Elliot's. |

My thoughts on the performances:
Gedeon-When the Top 24 weeks began, thought he never had a shot at making the Top 12. Now he's a candidate for Top 6 in my mind. I think the theme weeks are going to hurt him more than many of the others though. This was my least favorite of his performances, but as Randy says, he knows the type of songs he should be singing. Chris-Love the song he sang, didn't like him singing it as much. Seemed a bit drugged or ready to fall asleep at points during it. But clearly a Top 6 and overall winner candidate at this point. Kevin-Vincent is one of my all-time favs, and it made me very sad to see him butcher it. Looked like a high-school talent contest performance. He shouldn't have been invited to Hollywood till he got out of high school and had some singing/performance lessons. Bucky-Wow. If he goes tonight, he should be blaming whoever chose that arrangement of the song. That was an "adult contemporary" version of a country song, and it made him sound awful. He wasn't going to go far past tonight anyway, but I think that sealed the deal. Have to root for him a bit though, since I'm an identical twin too. Will-Another that needed to come back after he graduated. But I think he's the more polished of the Kevin/Will duo, and I enjoyed his performance. I think he squeaks by for another week, but will need to channel Josh Groban next week to survive for any longer. Taylor-another hard to watch, good to listen to performance. His uniqueness will keep him alive in the Top 12, but it'll be interesting to see how far he will go. The song was a good choice for his voice. Elliott-Lucky he had such good performances in the past weeks. I thought this was one of the worst of the night, and I can't believe Randy "out of pitch man" Jackson actually liked it. You could tell he didn't particularly like the way he was singing it during the performance. I thought a lock for Top 6 before, but he needs to come back next week with a strong performance to regain that status for me. Ace-I give him credit for showing off his ability and range, but I generally don't like men singing falsetto. I cringed when he said he was going to sing a Michael Jackson song. Such a bad choice for him. When he went back to his normal voice it was good though. I still want him in a Bottom 3 just to wake him up, cause I think he has a lot of potential. Now I'm beginning to wonder though. Girls Gone: Melissa and Kinnik Guys Gone: Kevin and Bucky. |

Even though Taylor's dancing reminded me of a mental patient trying to put out a grease fire, I still want him to win.

I think Lisa is by far the most talented person in the competition this year, but she just doesn't generate much excitement... It would be a shame if Eliot went home after that bland performance, he was easily the best guy through the first three episodes.
My guess for going home tonight is Melissa, Kinnik, Peter Brady, and Bucky. I think Kevin is by far the worst remaining, but I bet he'll stick around to tormet us for a few more weeks ala John Stevens. |

I ran across this in an article. Interesting...
A few other tidbits...Chris tried out for Rockstar INXS, but wasn't chosen. Oh, I can TOTALLY see why they'd want MiG Ayesa over him. And Ace is dating Essence Atkins from Smart Guy and Half & Half. Thats also the show he guest starred on. *coughcastingcouchcough*

That was in reference to Covais making the top 12.

I've never liked the guy, and I can't explain why. He's a good singer and performer, for what he does. Certainly better than Bucky. But something about the way he looks bugs the hell out of me. I think Simon said it best the first night of the top 24 performances, and it ended up being his downfall. Watching the old footage, I honestly think he would have gone farther had he just not grown the mustache. It made his weird smile that much more of a pronounced, bizarre feature. As strange as it sounds, I think that made a difference.

Wow couple of shockers tonight. Melissa over Ayla was a bit of a shocker, guess Ayla's background came into play there after all. Too bad I really thought she was a darkhorse to win it all.
Gedeon's appearance probably was a factor in his leaving, but I think he was very unlikeable off the stage-just seemed a bit arrogant to me. Still he shouldn't have gone home yet-he gave three good performances which is about 2 or 3 more than Bucky and Kevin can say. I liked Kinnik and Will, but it was pretty clear they weren't going to win the whole competition. |

Yeah, in my opinion neither Ayla nor Gedeon should be going home. It should've, of course, been Kevin but rather Bucky than Gedeon. And I think Ayla had earned the trip over Melissa based on the bulk of the work.

As much as I don't like Gedeon, there's no way Covais or Bucky were better than him in any facet - even appearance, for that matter. I just have no clue how anyone could find Covais remotely entertaining to listen to or look at. Simon was dead on when he said the guy sounded like an 11-year old singing that starry night song. He's not only the whitest white boy I've ever heard, but he's also got the voice/body of a pre-teen. That's usually not a great combination...

Gedeon should of been in and Kevin out. |

Mrs. Eaglesfan and I both thought the same thing about Bo last night.
She thought it was a bad arrangement which was too contemporary and didn't allow him to really rock.

I've listened to sound clips of Bo's album and thought it was horrible.
He's a southern rock guy, and they made him do a pop album. That song he did last night was NOT rock. No wonder he looked so uncomfortable out there last night. He has to hate himself right now. |

Yes, looks strange, but I can't argue with the system. It takes into account likelihood of pornos emerging, dirt, and the possibility of having a relationship with one of the judges or Ryan Seacrest (I'll give you a hint, the system docked someone for having a relationship with Ryan, and the name starts with A and ends in E and has a C somewhere in the middle).

Yep. My wife bought his shitty album, listened to 3 songs, and threw it into our crappy CD holder, never to be listened to again. I was a huge Bo fan last season and it's sad to see him have to sell his soul. On the other hand, I hated Carrie (and modern "country"), but I kind of like her new single. Wierd.
