He is amazing for 17 years old...wow...
First off... it's forgot

Secondly, a line? he missed like 4 of them! He is lucky because he has a big fan base. That one dude a season or two ago made one mistake and he was gone the next night. David would have been the same way... He shouldn't have picked a song he didn't know or know well.

As to his slower songs... i think an artist should be able to do more than one style. it will become more repetitive and boring. Plus he is soft spoken so it will be tough for him to do other songs.

Kristy SHOULD have gone home. That was a mess. She sang it faster than the original... and the band was going even faster! Wrong style completely!

True but at 17, you cant expect all kids to be fans of the Beatles. Since it was Beatles night, he probably didnt know any of the songs...so what can ya do?

He freaks me out too.....he licks his lips every 10 seconds and he's always flaring his nostrils. The other one who bugs me is Brooke, she has this weird smile every 10 seconds ....it looks so weird. Probably nerves

Well I think he's been at it so long (the road to being a performer) since he was a little boy (they keep showing clips from about age 5 and up with him performing on stage and getting all this attention because he was a cute little boy) and I agree, he doesn't care.......... he's just bored with the whole thing......probably wondering if he's going to go out for ice cream with mommy and daddy when he's done performing
He has a page on wikipedia and it says that his dad is of Basque descent, and his mother is Honduran. That could be a reason for his unusual looks maybe.

that was a shocker! I am so mad! They picked the wrong person to go home tonight, imo! I thought for sure that he, David A, and David Cook would be the final 3!

Syesha was my pick to go tonight.

Why was everyone shocked that Michael left? He did not perform on the night. Although as above I wanted Syesha to go, it would have gone either way.

And what's with John McCain trying to crack a joke about MI and FL votes? lol
