American Idol '08

I think they perform a song they had previously performed, of their choice? I may be wrong......

Should be a great show next week!!! Can't wait!

Bye Jason, I'll miss you!!! :frown:

both DH & i LOVE LOVE LOVE david COOK.

my other favorite was Brooke......she reminds me of a very cool , laid back folksy kinda singer.......and i hope she goes that way later in her career ( i could see her doing the arlo guthrie kinda funky folk songs ...i LOVE A.G ))

David A. seems like a *sweet kid * but so not ready for this.......yes, he can sing but the squinty eyes,breathy sounds etc..... i see him as runner up to David C.

never have liked Syesha or Jason Castro .

I think Jason was right to be gone, I think Syesha is next.

I don't think David Cook is nearly as good as Daughtry. Daughtry made me giddy every single week. Cook has good weeks, and boring weeks.

Yeah, I don't think Cook is as good as Daughtry either. He's good, but doesn't compare to me. I love Daughtry! In fact, I think season 5 contestants were the best as a whole. Bucky Covington and Kellie Pickler are doing pretty well with country. Daughtry, Katherine McPhee, and Elliot Yamin are doing good too. Even though Taylor won, I don't think he was the best. I never hear anything from him?

I like Daughtery now, but I didn't think he was fantastic when he was on Idol. I was pretty sure he had a career in his future, but I never dreamed he'd be as popular as he is now.

I actually like David Cook better than Daughtery. I just like his voice better and his style better. But who knows what will happen with how he's handled and what he will choose to record.

I will be extremely disappointed if Syesha and David Archuleta are the last two standing! I expect for the two Davids to be the last two, but I sure don't think it's cast in stone. Syesha has improved a lot and David C. has made some so-so song choices lately. David A. is completely predictable.

My DH and I both have been pretty disappointed in the past couple of weeks. I think the show is really suffering from losing both Carly and Brooke. In fact, my DH turned to me the other night and said, "Geez, this is actually pretty bad!"

I'd love to hear the whole Taylor Hicks after Idol story. I was one of his fans because I enjoyed his charisma and his raw voice style, but I knew his voice wasn't the best. Neither did Ray Charles have a fantastic voice in the beginning or Tina Turner, but they were very entertaining and even exciting. I expected Taylor to turn into that kind of entertainer. For all of us who liked him, we deserve to know what happened to him.

I really loved Taylor Hicks in the beginning - like BJean said - his charisma was captivating. I admit, my favorite was Elliott Yamin. No other Idol season will ever compare to that season.

Well guys, it is really getting narrowed down now. I am curious to see how it goes. I think the final two are going to be the David's.

Hmmm, what will we talk about after Idol is over? Does anyone watch "So you think you can dance"?

I do! I love that show. My DH even likes it. When does it start coming on?

Hmmm, David Cook did nothing for me last night, and I am normally a big fan....

Syesha did really good! She has really impressed me the past few weeks.

David A. did really good too.

Nothing blew me away about any of the performances last night, but it was enjoyable.

[BJean 16]

I thought David Cook's first and last performances were great.

David A. was good, and I was glad he did something a little more upbeat, but I still hope that David Cook wins.

Syesha has definitely blossomed, but her vamp song really turned me off. It seriously sucked. If you've ever heard the original and seen a tape of Peggy Lee's rendition, you'd know why.

I really liked that performance, but yeah, I've never seen this Peggy Lee person, never even heard of her.....??
