To stay

[eggplant43]

Well, two are gone now, and after singing their songs, they have clearly validated the judgment of the public, IMO.

I totally agree with the 4 kicked off tonight.


Kinda sad though that Noriega is still on I liked Garret better than him ................Sorry eggplant

[eggplant43]

Did you see his tears?

[valley]

we didnt watch last night. Carl had Survivor on. I forgot to check to see who got booted after it was done. Bummer Colton went home so soon. He was really good. Simon was cruel to Garret the other night with the whole "get some sun" comment, the meanie.

I still cant decide who I want to see go all of the way!

Maybe he was crying tears of joy..........since he wasn't kicked off this week

For whatever reason Daniel was crying..............ya better get used to it......that boy's probably going to be crying on every show

I liked 5 of the performances tonight. Luke Menard, David Hernandez., Jason Yeager, Checkizie, and David Archuleta. I was let down by a few performances, in particular Michael Johns whom I really liked until tonight. I disagreed with all the judges about Jason Yeager, I simply liked his performance. Until tonight, I'd never paid attention to Luke Menard, I loved what he did tonight.

Lastly, David Archuleta. His performance was outstanding. With a superstar, there is a magnetism, and an expectation of something profound. I thought he exhibited both those qualities tonight.

I completely agree. Fascinating to watch how every time, he's a young, self-effacing, shy young boy, then the music starts and suddenly he's a mature, charismatic, awe-inspiring professional singer, then immediately after the last note, he's suddenly the shy young boy again.

He's got a gift that is just astounding.

ditto on what both of you said! Just watched the first girl sing tonight...I thought she did awesome with the heart song (makes mental note to start remembering some names! )

Tonight's picks: Carly Smithson, Syesha Mercado, Alaina Whittaker, Alexandrea Lushington.

Disappointments:

Amanda Overmeyer, Ramiele Mulabay

For the first time I agreed with every word Simon said when he described Carly Smithson.

I hope both Amanda, and Ramiele can pick the right song, because I believe in both of them.

Love this quote!!

"If we'd just be 10% nicer to each other, we could transform the world."

[eggplant43]

Well thank you. I said it so many times, I thought I'd make it my signature. This is something I believe at my core. Of course, no one would recognize Simon if he took it to heart
