Katie Stevens was kinda cute. But not surprised on Katie and Andrew going home

Andrew is dull and pitchy. His rendition of "Hound Dog" was painful to watch/listen to.

Aaron suits a demographic that Disney will snatch-up as soon as he's gone from Idol. He tries hard, but Kara nailed him on her critique of "Blue Suede Shoes". He didn't put enough energy or enthusiasm into it. That song was way to huge for him, and he knew it.

So, those two are my picks for who goes tonight.

It's really a 4-person contest this season, with everyone else just hanging on waiting to get voted off.

It really boils down to Crystal, Michael, Lee and Casey.

Why? Crystal is a solid, consistent performer. Her only slightly off night was when she used the piano for "Midnight Train to Georgia". She knows who she is and what she wants to sing. Just that simple.

Michael: Essentially, soul and R&B man. He's a little inconsistent at times, but when the theme for the week fits his style, he's on the money every time.

Lee: Not a big stage presence, but that can be honed and groomed. He's got a voice that will sell recordings.

Casey: I think this guy could almost be the next Bob Seger (with some James Taylor, Jackson Browne and Stevie Ray Vaughn thrown in).

The top 4 (last season) have all released music and I think the 4 I've listed will do likewise.

Siobhan has talent, but it's not all quite there yet. She can't peg a style (by her own admission) and at 19, really does anyone know what they want to be at that age?

Katie is talented as well, but it's not solid or matured yet...and at 17, why should anyone expect it to be? Same with Aaron.

Tim's hanging on because of that smile. That's about it...

I thought she was kinda cute too and thought she had a pretty decent voice. I did not think she was going to go home tonight though. I figured Andrew was going home and I would have thought that Michael would have joined him though in going home. I think he has a good chance at going home next week unless he performs very well.

I think its a slam dunk for Crystal and she doesn't even know it as she was having doubt the last several weeks like she was very relieved.

Is that fact or a prediction?

If a fact, spoiler tags would've been nice, since we get it delayed here.

I am also in the west coast, so don't feel bad. Only difference between you and me is that I'd already saw tonight's show at 6pm local time.

I was happy with these eliminations. Finally getting closer to where there are actually people worth listening to.

 

[Stargazer]

I never thought about the west coast not seeing it yet. I will keep that in mind next time.

Thanks! I appreciate that.

I still think we're about 2-3 people beyond those worth listening to, but we're a lot closer now...

 

[Stargazer]

I agree with you. There's still some that need weeded out.
