So last night’s American Idol wasn’t a great one. It seemed the week before where they all worked with Barry Manilow brought out much better performances. I was agreeing with the judges more times than not being underwhelmed. I thought Paris, Elliott, Chris and Mandiva were all decently strong while Taylor did a good job showing a different side and focusing more on his singing. Was also good to see Chris credit last weeks Walk the Line performance to the band Live’s version since he got so beat up all week in the media over it for falsely taking credit of that arrangement. So how does the top 10 shake out now?
- Taylor Hicks (back on top)
- Chris Daughtry (took a lot of negative press this past week over that Live rendition)
- Katharine McPhee (still holding steady)
- Paris Bennett (Probably the best performance last night)
- Elliott Yamin (Gaining more popularity with his funk/soul style, I like Elliott a lot)
- Mandisa (solid last night as well)
- Ace Young (Love that Train song, but he’s taking his act over the top now with his deep stares and touching his hair and acting just plain gay… and usually he looks good, but his hair was so flat and terrible last night, awful)
- Kellie Pickler (is she the next young Dolly Parton?… sounds like it)
- Lisa Tucker (she’s coming to the end of her time on this show)
- Bucky Covington (him too)
So who goes tonight? It has to be between my bottom 3 and even though I think Bucky should go, I believe it will be Lisa’s night to bow out with the lowest number of votes. Thank god no Kevin last night!
