And I sure don't like the judges declaring Bo the winner everytime BEFORE Carrie sings. Just doesn't seem right.

I hope the teeny bopper voters prove them wrong.

You can't do Satisfaction with a horn section. What were they thinking?

Simon called it right: "Loved the first two songs, but that was light fluff."

Carrie's next...

Time to start praying!

Randy's the one who's picked at her the most the season and he gets to pick her final song.

I think I'm more nervous than she is.

I felt like it was a bar mitzvah band or one of those cheesy wdding type jobs.

That may well be the "hardest" song of all to do...because it's so ahrd to "cover" Mick Jagger...Everyone has the sound and image of Mick in their minds when they hear the song..Bo did a god job

Sounded like Dean Martin doing the Stones.

I did a mental moan when they announced which song she would sing.

I haven't cared much for the songs she chooses either. I think that will hurt her in the end. jmo The good thing is that I think she will still get signed and I predict IF she does good songs she will outsell the others. But song choice is key, though there seems to be a split on her song choices.

Nobody...nobody ever, ever can do Satisfaction better than Mick! But hey, the judges picked it for him. I hope they picked a good one for Carrie!

Pedestrian song, but they handed it to him.

Not much range (I think it was written when Jagger's voice was starting to go whiskey).

So you strut on the stage with the cards you were dealt. I don't think anyone could have done any better for a song that is self-restraining.

It is Bo's stage presence (he is a professional, after all) and his memorable acapella song that puts him in 1st place.

If V comes in 2nd we will know that no one is listening anyway.

There's no "will be" about it.

Carrie already is "FINE!!". (Looking that is, and she can sing pretty well too!.) :)

We need to hear a quick, lively one from her now and she needs to nail it.

I'm a Bo fan, but he messed up twice in that song and sang the rest in a sloppy way.

I agree with Simon that it was a fluff performance.

She'll do great, but as usual, they'll ho-hum it.

I like the change in the Stone's line, making it more PC: "I can't get no girl reaction," which Bo rendered very clearly.

I remember the original as, "I can't get no girlie action."

I agree with you. He did a good job,but his first 2 songs were EXCELLENT!

I didn't like Bo's last song at all--I hate Satisfaction anyway. But he saved himself I think with the first and especially with second song.

Carrie sings "Man I Feel Like A Woman."
