American Idol - Top 12 Wrap-up

I really like the Beatles, but I just didn't think it was too "hot" last night. I was really surprised by all of the judges' reactions to the songs. I do think it must sound different live than it does through the TV because I just didn't get it.

Sayesha - She was just OK. She's usually really good, but she seemed nervous today.

Chikezie - He was GREAT! He really came out of his shell and entertained. You could tell he was proud of himself. The judges really liked him too. I'm sure he'll be around next week.

Ramiele - Let's just say-we fast-forwarded through her performance. Boring! She's good though and will be around for a little longer

Jason - Good, but a little boring. I'm not sure how much longer he'll stay in.

Carly - the judges love her, but I'm on the fence. I really would have expected Amanda to sing that song rather than her.

David Cook - Pretty good. He's growing on me, but I'm not sure how versatile he is. We'll see what he can do in the next round.

Brooke - She is my favorite, but I have a hard time seeing her as the "idol" type. The judges like her, so I think that will work in her favor for a little longer. I do believe she is very genuine and a good girl.

David Hernandez - way too over the top this week. I'm losing interest in him, but he'll make it to the top 10.

Amanda - I'm just not a fan. She does the rocker-girl thing well, but I don't think she could sing anything else. You can't understand a thing she sings either.

Michael - he disappointed me this week. Just a boring performance. He'll go through to next week, but if he doesn't come out next week with a BANG he'll go home.

Kristi - She's just trying way too hard and it's not working for her. The country thing was overdone this week.

David Archuletta - Poor kid! He was so nervous he forgot the lyrics. I felt really sorry for him. Hopefully the voters did too, otherwise he might be going home.
