I really enjoyed the show this week. Maybe I'm showing my age but I love Queen! I thought everyone did a decent job.
Last night Bucky finally didn't get enough votes to stay. He was okay but not great. My daughter really wants Taylor gone but I like him. I guess I like that he is a bit quirky.

I have been in love with Ace since the start but after last night.... would you believe I am now a true Chris fan, his singing was truely sensational!!!!! I think kelli is finally going to be leaving tonight (she has gotten way too blonde for me : and I hope (sorry Susan but Taylor is yucky : that Taylor follows her soon. There is no way I can pick just one to win though, I adore katherine too, not only is she sooooo very talented but she seems so sweet and is a beauty...kind of what you would expect for a famous singer. What do you guys think? Robin

We are on the same page Robin....doesn't it seem that every week Kelli is saying "sorry" in that voice of hers ? She relies too much on hte cuteness and blondeness.....Katherine seems to me that she has quietly slid in....she may lack a bit of the personality....just becuase she is quiter and more subtle than some of the other charactars.... Also, seems like she got a teeny tiny rerun of her music last night....know when they do the recap at the end....hers seemed to me to be much less time than the others ? Producers seem to rush with her,,,,hhmmmm....not fully usre what I'm trying to say.....but something there that I can't quite put a finger on. PS.....liked Ace's slick look last night !

I still like Chris...good recording voice. I like Taylor, but he's been holding back for too many weeks...I think Simon spooked him. Elliot has a nice sound, but he seems uncomfortable, and to me, he sings the same way every week. Ace is sure easy on the eyes (I feel like a pervert cuz I'm old enough to be his mama), but singin aint his thing...good boy band voice.....Katherine is good, but not my type of singer...too broadway for me...Kellie, I liked her at first, thought she was refreshing, but now that "country bumkin" act is making me ill..too much for too long....Paris, excellant voice, but alittle young for my tastes. I think tonite the bottom few will be Kellie, Elliott, and Paris...Ace may pick up Bucky's fan base. Just my humble opinnion...and as in Simon's words..."that was pretty indulgent"....but hey, at least I'm not "pitchy"!!

Dolly, I have been laughing so hard at your comment about feeling like a pervert.............LOL my kids make so much fun of me because I have said so many times "Ace is HOT"! (And I have a son his age!)
I was prepared for Elliott to go tonight, and was SO bummed! I have never been all that crazy about Katherine, but she might very well be my favorite now ! She was awesome last night. I really like Paris........have liked her since her audition.......but she has been in the bottom three several times now.
This show is SO addictive!

Sorry to say but I couldn't stand Ace. I thought he was so fake. I love taylor and his energy, but I think Paris or Terie will bring it home. Just my opinion. PS: My oldet son who is in a band is going for the try-out in Kitcher. Doesn;t amtter if he doesn't make it he has already had a record deal and has had 7 CD's out with Sony Records. He doesn't expect to much, he is doig it for the fun of it and the exposer if he gets picked.

LOL - OMG Dolly - you can tell you watch this all the time based on the review you have given. I was cracking up reading it - especially at the end about being "pitchy" - WTG Miss Randy Jackson!!! LMAO

WOW....Shocker last night ! Katherine really didn't do a great job with Elvis songs....and she and Chris both looked so stunned.....especially Chris......well.....since I don't vote....I'm not complaing...and I'm sure he'll wind up with some record deal anyways despite the vote off

I agree what a shocker for me too. Although Catherine did not do too great with the Elvis theme, it is hard for a woman to sing his songs. I think she should have chosen slower songs. But then I'm not Simon to decide. ;D ;D I do think Chris should have been on, but then the votes are what keeps them in. I even vote from Canada. I like Elliot. But I also think that htis year was hard to decide. They are all so great. And I'm sure if Catherine really want it, she will get a record deal in no time anyways. She has a great range of voice.

jumping in here...sorry to see Chris go - but he'll do better off on his own - he's very talented and will have a wider appeal than "Idol" can bring...just MHO. I dont see any of the 3 remaining as "Idols" -- Catherine is just not that good...and Taylor is fun to watch but should stick to blues-y type stuff, and he doesn't really have the image that Idol goes for. I think Catherine will win because of her appeal...but she doesn't appeal to me, LOL! But I don't vote either - so I cant complain about anything that happens :-D laurie

when I saw Chris was in the bottom two, I knew he would be gone.....totally wasn't expecting him to be in the low group. And I hated the way that little weasel, Ryan Seacrest, announced the results! Very cruel and demeaning...I would love to see someone (who's been voted out), when asked to sing (after just having their hearts ripped out) tell Ryan to Kiss my a.....I'm outta here! Now, that would be a finale! I love the concept of the show, but I can't stand how it has evolved into a playground fight between the judges and the host....very juvenile, and they have totally lost focus on the contestants. I'm not sure if I'll watch it again next year....unless the cut all the bull and focus on the singing. I'm not sure who I think will win now, (Chris was my favorite). They are all talented, in their own way. It could be anyone of them. Guess we'll find out in a few weeks....

I'm not a real rock fan so Chris wasn't my favorite. I did think he has talent but I wasn't a big fan. I think Catherine is talented and has been well trained but she just doesn't shine when she performs. Elliot has probably been the most consistent. I like him because he is the underdog. I like Taylor because he sings with his whole self. I have no idea who will win. I was so sure it was going to be Chris or Catherine but now I just don't know.

Call me a poor loser but I officially now have Tuesdays and Wednesdays free because I am done watching American Idol. How Taylor Hick or Elliot could beat out Chris is way beyond my comprehension. I was so disgusted I am surprised you guys couldnt hear me scream all the way to your houses ! I really like Katherine but hey, she's probably nest...America is nuts, but hey I already knew that!

Wow....what a night.....it's going to be a TOUGH TOUGH decision. Kat is great because I POSITIVEL HATE the song "Over the Rainbow"....but WOW....I acutally loved her rendition of it. The song she chose for herself to sing was okay....but she is too pretty and smiley for it.....that song needed a little "attitude" and she's not tough enough for taht ! LOL I've never been a fan of Taylor...couldn't figure out how he was still here....but he convinced me after his songs....though he got a little too crazed at the end of "Try a little Tenderness" and I thought he was just trying to mimic Joe thingyer in "you are so Beautiful" And Elliot.....he's been solid the whole way...his songs were good, but I'm not jumping out of my seat recalling any at the moment.....so I guess he didn't wow my socks off. BUT....I did hear that he is Diabetic....all the moms on my Children with Diabetes Boards I visit are voting for him !! LOL....I also heard on that board that "Chicken Little" is Diabetic as well.....it is spreading in leaps & bounds....maybe we'll get the research pumped into it and finally cure this horrible disease....okay.....littel off track.... Waiting for Wed. night to see results !! Allisa
