Paula: “And he wants beef!” WTH??

Simon didn't get a hamburger with Brooke's bun? What - you didn't get that? ;)

At this point in the comp they are all winners. But I fear that Brooke will be the lowest vote getter tonight.

You didn’t even miss that. If you’ve heard monchichi once, you’ve heard him tonight.

I agree.

Yeah, I completely agree with you. Brook didn’t disappoint me as much she did everyone else, but I really like her. David C. doesn’t even need the show anymore, IMO. He was great. Although, at the telethon last week he was annoying. He need to keep his ego in check.

Here’s my order for tonight:

David Cook - Best of the night. Great comeback from last week’s disaster.
Kristy - Awesome! She nailed the vocals and made the song her own. It would be a huge country hit with her vocals.
Monchichi - You’ve got to admit, he’s got a good voice.
Syesha - Best she’s sang so far but she could be lost in the sauce. Vanishing?? Appropriate song?
Brooke - A few rough notes but pleasant.
Tiny Tim Castro - Did he sing? I must have fallen asleep!
Carly - Without you?? Yes, the show will go on without you.

Who should go: Carly or Castro
Who WILL go: Syesha or Brooke (or Carly)

At this point it’s not important because the final by all rights should be between the 2 “David’s”

I think I just got about 50 votes for her in. ;)

That’s why I am glad you are here- to translate Paulaese into English. ;-)

Simon faked them out!! I agree with you about David being better than Daughtry.

I'll have to make sure my daughter never sees what I posted about Daughtry! (and I even 'spelt' his name wrong)

David Archuleta’s music will be heard in elevators and in dentists’ offices for years to come.

...and she sings through her long nose.

I predict she will go off the show tomorrow night.

“David Archuleta’s music will be heard in elevators and in dentists’ offices for years to come.”

Good one!!

Same goes for Castro. You could just play his music and save a ton of money on Novocain!!

Brooke would have been better if she didn’t hit a couple of slightly off notes and then panic. She started singing faster and that put her off a little more. I could see the panic in her on the close-up shots.

I think I’d opt for waterboarding. ;)

At least that would be over sooner :)

Syesha is beautiful, but she looked like she had Mickey Mouse ears on tonight with that hairdo.

And she missed lots of notes. I think Randy is getting hard of hearing. He said she was great.

Hillary should hire him for her “song.” Hasn’t she gone through several singers/groups so far?

“I could see the panic in her (Brooke) on the close-up shots.”

She was shaking more than Michael J. Fox in those political ads that Rush taked about.

Too bad. She has a nice voice and some talent. Hope she stays another week to redeem herself.

Brooke needs to keep her comments to herself.

Yes. Maybe it's nerves or something. She just can't stand there and be quiet while the judges are talking about her.

This week there were four outstanding performances and three mediocre performances.

1. David Cook - Always Be My Baby - two words, ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! Put this on a single and release it tomorrow and it will be at number one next week. This song WILL be on David's first album. BANK IT!

2. Kristy Lee Cook - Forever - OK, I will admit this is going to be great to the country fans, and panned by the Kristy haters. Well I am a Country fan, and I will flat out tell you this, Listen to this on Youtube or I-tunes and CLOSE YOUR EYES, and come back here and tell me you do not hear Patsy Cline. You will not be able too. This was awesome.

3. David Archuletta - When You Believe - Monchichi picked the perfect song for his voice and delivered a flawless performance. I may have liked the Cooks better, but David did nothing to remove himself from front runner status. This was excellent.

4. Jason Castro - I Don't Wanna Cry - Simon was dead on on this, ok Vocal but the whole thing together was just COOL! No matter what any othe guys think though I garauntee Jason is safe. I will let my soon to be 50 wife say it in her words "If I was 18 Jason would have my panties". I can't top that.

5. Brooke White - Hero - I love Brooke's voice and the whole Carly Simon/Carole King thing she has going, and she did nothing to change that tonight. That said, this was just OK, it was sweet but not in the league of the other four.

6. Syesha Mercado - Vanishing - I thought the first half was very good, and then I thought Syesha totally lost it when she tried to go big. The runs were all over the place. She has a beautiful soft voice, but I do not like her when she goes big.

7. Carly Smithson - Without You - This was just a mess for me. She sounded like she was growling during the early part of the song, and then my dogs started howling and glass started cracking when she got into the screech part of the song. By far Carly's worst performance of the year.

I see no way in the world that the bottom three is not Brooke, Syesha and Carly; and I think Carly's run on the show is over.
