Mixed feelings about co-number one show on TV. I am glad that Carrie, Vonzell and Jessica has awesome performances. But I am a little disappointed in my former top 3, Bo, Nadia, and Anwar. Bo's performance was as good as he could make with the song he chose. Nadia's vocals were weak but her stage show was great. Anwar just chose a bad song that should be sung by a woman.
Carrie doing Heart was chilling. She makes it look easy.
Vonzell controlled her vocals, put her all in the showmanship and is one sexy mutha and knows how to use it with class and innocence
Jessica other than having a short neck and torso did a great job and picked a perfect song for her voice. That look into the camera after her final note was a definite turn on. When she angles her head down and her eyes roll back. I definitely moved for her.
On an even better note Anthony and Constantine and Mikhaela are finished. Gawd Awful

Carrie is clearly the best vocalist and most well rounded of all the performers. She should win fairly easily.
Nadia really fucked up by going with Time After Time. She should have sang a black song that brings out her voice and style. The mohawk was just plain embarassing.
Bo was ok. He's good, but I don't think he's nearly as good as a lot of people think he is.
Anwar was good, but not in the same league as Carrie.
I predict that Mikhaela is sent home tomorrow. I thinkit really fucked her up a few weeks back when Simon said "I think a lot of people will like you, but a lot of people will find you extremely annoying". Ever since that week She has really toned down her behaviour and seems to have lost her confidence.

A much better show than last week... since it seems others have already weighed in, here's my four cents...
Anthony - Perfectly inocuous performance, although I guess we can expect an Elton John song from him next. He seems to like gay male vocalists--Neil Sedaka, George Michael.
Carrie - Wow. She sang the hell out of that Heart song (a much underrated group, imo). She totally rocked. And she looked good too.
Scott - Groan. Another rendition of 'Against All Odds'. It seems this song gets done every season, and this season, twice already. I wish Scott would do a Christopher Cross song, given they are both fat guys with sweet voices. I think that would be perfect... 'Arthur's Theme', or even 'Sailing'.
Bo - The cynic in me thinks it was a shrewdly calculated move to go mellow this week, and 'Time in a Bottle' is one of those sensitive guy love songs which could boost his popularity with the ladies, since that seems to be Constantine's angle.
Nikko - Geez, 900 some odd number 1 songs to choose from and you choose one by Sisqo??! Still, I thought he did well, and he should be safe for at least a week or two. As Simon said about RJ Helton in Season 1 (anyone remember him?), "You can sing, but there's boy-band good, and there's American Idol good".
Vonzell - Nice perky performance, but I still think she is a middle of the packer.
Constantine - Gawd, what a goofball. It is tough to sing a song like 'I Think I Love You' and do it without irony. I don't think he pulled it off, even though I am willing to believe he legitimately likes the song.
Nadia - 'Time after Time' is an awesome song, but I thought the rocked out arrangement of it was all wrong. It is very much a love song, and I always thought Cyndi Lauper's plaintive version of it was perfect (I also think Cyndi is way underrated). I didn't mind Nadia's hair so much, but she lost momentum tonight.
Mikalah - Toast. She started off offkey, and usually when the judges say a performer was pitchy, I don't necessarily know what they mean. But Mikalah was way off for about the first 30 seconds. She's gone.
Anwar - I totally don't remember anything about this guy's performance. I think he has built enough goodwill that he is in no danger of being voted off, but this is two mediocre performances in a row.
Jessica - When I realized Jessica was last, I half expected her to show up showing off the big guns again, but her outfit was somewhat subdued, although there was a bit of cleavage. I thought she did a good job. She is also a sexy chick, despite being a little on the heavy side.
My fearless prediction for tomorrow: Mikalah goes home, and she, Constantine, and Nikko are the bottom three.

Four cents, homonger? Aaargh, bad enough that you have more to spend on SP's than most of us, but do you have to rub it in? (j/k of course)
re: your comment on pitchiness, I almost always know when the judges will say that, but I can't put in to words what that means. Perhaps someone with more musical knowledge can elaborate or maybe it's something you need to have an ear for?

Aah, there is no way Bo is going anyhere, at least not for several weeks. I agree Carrie was awesome last night, but what's with Simon? He has favorite-hopped all season, touting at different times, Bo, Nadia, and Carrie.
I think as of this moment, Carrie would be the favorite, and then it becomes a crapshoot. Early favorites Bo and Anwar have lost steam recently, and I think Nadia and Jessica are still forces to be reckoned with. I even think Anthony, if he would stop being such a wuss, could contend. The only ones who I think I could safely say have no shot at all are Mikhala (gone tonight I predict), Constantine, Nikko, Vonzell, and Scott.

Another Hot-off-the-presses newsflash. The voting system got fucked up last night and I heard they will have to sing again tonight. I don't know if the person who told me is fucking around with me, cause all the people at work think I'm nuts for professing my love for the show.
Ok, oh skeptical one.

They should just have Simon eliminate someone each week.
I'd go for that. Constantine seem slike a sweet kid, but I can't get over how much he looks like a retarded teenage girl with a hair lip.Spode said:
Is it just me or did Paula seem like she snorted a few lines before last nights show? She's a complete dingbat every week, but last night she was more embarassing than usual.
