What is with Kara and Simon? Their body language is way tight - as in married.

Simon doesn't believe in personal space.

You could download a dozen gangsta rap tunes and they'd still recommend Coldplay.

Tell me about it. I downloaded an MP3 of pretty much white noise that is for sleep. Yep, recommended Coldplay. Does Chris Martin's dad work for Amazon or something?

Is it bad that I don’t remember this kid AT ALL?!

Munoz? No, they didn't show a lot of him up until now. I doubt if he'll get past this round.

Well, now we know why randy, Simon, et al have been saying this is going to be the girls year, because other than two or maybe three guys this night was a pathetic mess. Terrible performance after terrible performance.
Here are my rankings, although to be honest, there are only a couple that matter:

TOP TWO:
1A. Andrew Garcia – Sugar, We’re Going out Swinging – I thought this was a fantastic performance. It wasn’t a showstopper by any means, and Andrew can do a lot better; but this was quality singing.

1B. Casey James – Heaven – Loved everything about this performance. Casey is going to be in this competition for a long long time. He may be the next American Idol.

SECOND TIER:
3. Michael Lynche – This Love – Not Big Mike’s best, but his soulful voice and sheer joy for performing shone through. Lots of room to grow.

4. Lee Dewyze – Chasing Cars – I love the Raspy voice, but this performance was all over the place. Great in spots, awful in others. But there is a lot of potential here. Sort of a Gokey Jr.

5. Alex Lambert – It’s A Wonderful World – Surprising to me, I actually liked Alex’s voice. I see potential, but this song was horrible. Not his performance, it was OK, but the song is horrible. Another example of today’s utterly terrible song writing
.
6. Tyler Grady – American Woman – This was better than the judges thought in my opinion, but it was just good, not great, but Tyler gets lumped with Big Mike, Lee and Alex in the “Has Potential” group.

THE REST – Doesn’t really matter how these are listed because the all SUCKED big time, but I will list them in order of how bad they made my ears bleed.

12A. Tim Urban – Apologize – Tim got swallowed up by this song. You have to have a strong falsetto to sing this, Tim doesn’t.

12B. Todrick Hall – Since You Been Gone – OK I am in the minority I am sure, I actually liked the arrangement Todrick did. HOWEVER, that doesn’t mean it was a good performance. It Wasn’t.

12C. John Park – God Bless the Child – You need a big voice, a lot of soul, and mucho amounts of feeling to sing this amazing song. John has none of the above, and he destroyed one of my favorite songs of all time.

12D. Joe Munoz – You and I – This was just painful. Offkey, whiney, teeth grinding painful. But not as bad as the next too.

12E. Aaron Kelly – Here comes Goodbye – GOODBYE can not come soon enough for this terrible singer. This was beyond painful. This was torture. Nasally, Whiney, off key. Sounded like someone killing a cat with a rusty chainsaw. BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD.

12F Jermaine Sellers – Get Here – I only thought Aaron perfected Bad. Jermaine resuscitated the cat Aaron killed, chopped it into itty bitty pieces and put it in a blender. I can’t even describe how awful this trainwreck was.

SHOULD GO HOME: TIM, TODRICK, JOHN, JOE, AARON and JERMAINE. Please!!! Get rid of them all right now. They all suck canal water through a straw.

WILL GO HOME: Does it really matter? As long as it isn’t Casey or Andrew the order they get voted off is a moot point. Six will be gone soon, and the other 4 will be the first 4 voted off in the final 12.

This kid is missing some scarves on the microphone.

LOL, He needs Aerosmith's roadie (played by Tom Hanks on SNL). "My job is to make sure there are plenty of scarves on the microphone stand."

I know. The Jim Morrison thing was okay at first. Now it seems like an act.

Uh! And it’s going to backfire on Casey, who seems like a sweet kid. All female viewers younger than Cougar Kara (roughly 90%) will go against Casey BECAUSE OF Kara.

Bottom 2 guys and bottom 2 girls get voted off this week, next week and the week after to get to 6 Females and 6 males for the top 12.

Although judging by tonight, they can just make 3-5 guys and 7-9 females in my opinion. After Andrew and Casey, I am not sure if any of the rest of the guys deserve to even sniff the top 12.

Watching local news--they have another Deal or Dud. This is one is for ladies only ... and maybe cross-dressers, LOL

"Kiss Everlasting Nails". Glue on fingernails.

Four women try it. The nails stay on for about five days. Look natural they say.

Final verdict: DEAL.

I voted dozens of times for Aaron, but strictly out of regional loyalty. I tuned in late and didn’t even hear his performance tonight.

BTW—I got through on every call, if that means anything.
