I think thats really harsh. There is nothing wrong with singing a Christian song (this is America after all, and KLC is that all American girl personality), which was also good song by any measure.

I think its weeks like this which are the toughest. The ones who usually deliver consistent great performances visibly falter (Carly, Cook, Brooke), while the 'underdogs' blew it out of the water. Do you kick out the consistent ones over a poor performance, or punish an improving contestant? Tough pick.


Burga - who honestly thinks its Brooke's turn to go this week, as she has been rather boring the past few weeks.

Actually I think she was pretty in the zone with it. As for personality, I think Syesha comes up even shorter in that department (as did Ramiele) and Brooke's is somehow slightly annoying imo. I think its clear that Americana is really her element, and if it happens to draw votes, she's smart to choose it.

And also that many hits abroad arent hits here.

I usually can't be bothered. I love movie scores, the Beatles, some indie stuff....thats it.

i thought last year's bunch was the poorest actually.

KLC has outperformed Brooke for at least the past two weeks...

Syesha can sing, but she's super vanilla

the Archie kid has a good voice, but he imbues his (almost always slow) numbers with very predictable lilts and I think he usually overdoes it...anyone else think so?

OMG I take back whatever I said previously about Syesha. She absolutely owned the night this week! The Cook dude was damned good too, though if I were to nitpick I didn't think the edgy shouty last note fit in with the rest of the performance. But again, Syesha...wow! And she looked great!

I think Cook deserves the title, but I would love to see Castro win if just for the reaction...

Well, the crap guys are edging closer and closer to the title. William Hung didnt make it through the auditions, Sanjaya got further and Jason nearly made the Top 3! Good progress. Muahahahahha

Though to be fair Jason can actually sing darn well.....















...when he wants to.

I won't say he is a crappy singer. More like a crappy competitor. It always seems to me he entered just for fun, got further than he expected to, then kept on producing nonchalant performances (with an odd brilliant one here and there) to see how far he could go out of curiosity. He never seemed that he wanted to win it.

I badly want to see a rubbish singer win this damn thing...and watch the reaction to the credibility collapse!

I think a veto vote is a bad idea. Perhaps a 30% (10% for each judge) influence would be alright...

Cook's bagged it.

Its already aired on Astro

I called defaultname365's statement rubbish, and I did not say DavidA was a bad singer.

Well now, its good that every once in a while we get someone like you in these forums. I never interpreted your 'near-perfect' as 'perfect'. You are reading something which I never wrote. My opinion, unlike yours is that DA's run to the final was far from even being 'near-perfect'. Yes, everyone has an opinion, but in some cases like this one, there are also right opinions, and wrong ones. Go plug that in to your little brain.
