One of my favorites has always been Lisa, but I don't know how long she can stand up against Mandisa, Paris and Katharine.
As for the guys, Chris is the only one that can compete with the these three.
I guess Kevin is going to continue because those little girls are voting like crazy.
Bucky has to go. Now!

Was last nights American Idol show hot or what?
One of my favorites has always been Lisa, but I don't know how long she can stand up against Mandisa, Paris and Katharine.

Bucky has to go. Now!
My votes for Katharine, next would be Mandisa (who turns out is a friend of my daughters math teacher)
for the guy - if Keven doesn't get voted off then teh whole show is a farse, chicken little has little talents that do not compare with the others. Chris is good...we'll see how he does.. and yeah Bucky the hair doo boy needs to go - his 15 minutes were up a long time ago

Bucky is sooo horrible, but Lisa is going to go next because she just doesn't really connect. She's 16, she's got plenty of years to figure out how to do that.
This is the first time I've gotten into AI. Is it because the performers are better or because I just got worn down? Those of you who have watched it for seasons, let me know if this is a better batch.

I think Katherine is going to take it all, unless Chris does. They are both quite good, in different ways. Chris has amazing stage presence while Katherine has that soft, approachable persona. I still really like Taylor, though he doesn't have what it takes to make it to the end. Last night' performance was not good, bad song choice; same chords, too repetitive of a chorus. That said, I'd pay to see him live as long as it wasn't at the Sleep Train mongo stage place. Elliot is my dark horse choice. Given a little bit of polish, he could shine. If Underwood hadn't won last time, Pickler could have a shot, but she's like her sister.

I think this is a much better batch.
Your remarks about Taylor got me thinking. Who would I pay money to see today out of all of them? Probably Taylor because he is so much fun to watch. I like his voice also.

I like Elliot, too, although he probably won't win because he's not nearly cute enough but after AI I will google him to see if he's got any albums out or to see what band he might be touring with as a back up vocalist. Ace is adorable but Chris clearly is the most confident and one of the most talented.
As for the women, many excellent vocalists and, no doubt, budding careers, but I'm not sure any of them stand out enough.
Given that Bo missed it last year, I think Chris has a very high probability of winning.

I agree. I would go see Taylor any day. He's hilarious, fun and a good vocalist. I want him at my high school reunion (!)

Top 3 will be Taylor, Chris and Katharine.

Maybe he'll be performing there this fall when I go back for my 20th reunion!
Taylors good, he's just gotta stop doing those "Joe Cocker having a seizure" dance moves - makes him look goofy as all heck

Thank goodness Kevin is gone. I thought there was some conspiracy going on here, what with Paula and Randy saying how much they liked him and then the faux commercial with him as the faux sex symbol. I don't know if Bucky is any better, but at least he doesn't sound like he has barbles in his mouth. Nor does he sound like he's trying to do a Bing Crosby imitation. Bucky just doesn't have any depth.
Oh God, why did I get hooked by this show??
Go Chris!

Yes, I'm a dork. The computer is on the coffee table and I just watched the elimination show.

I missed tonites show but yeah!!! glad to hear that Kevin got the boot - he was an uber geek who's 15 minutes of fame went on way too long....
To me, you should be able to close your eyes and listen and see if their sound is something you would want to hear, something you would listen to more then once, something you would buy. I like Simon's critiques best, they may be harsh but they're realistic and he's right that a winner has to have the "wow" factor - that thing that would compel you to want to listen to them, or buy their CD. I never thought I'd do it, but I'll admit I got the Kelly Clarkston CD and wow its good...I can see why she won.

I actually like Bucky. He's got plenty of depth, just didn't show it the past few weeks.
I like Chris, but I'm curious why everytime he's on, he gets all the smoke and mirrors to go along with his performance? Nobody else seems to. Sure he's got a great voice, but we've already scene the "Rocker Dude" gig with Bo Bice. He's one dimensional, but if that's what sells then he's your guy.
Katharine or Taylor should win.
