My only complaint is I wish the first hour was as entertaining as the second

Really?
I "LMAO" the whole time. Love that first number with the past contestants...
really reinforced why the voting went the way it did.

And the "Star Spangled Banner" girl...what a riot.
She was positively in her element, coming out at the end
with that adorable makeover. Such a cutie.

Billy Preston singing with Vonzelle OMG. Talk about chemistry.
Perfect song for them.

Weren't you struck by how incredibly good all the gr8 old 'icons' were?
Rascal Flatts, Billy Preston...all those rich voices.

Man, I just woke up smiling today. That one show was
better than the whole season, IMO.

I didn't watch last night (family visiting), but it sounds like there are some good performances. Luckily, I have TiVo... (though it will have to wait for me to catch up on "24", "Lost", and the UEFA Champions League (Soccer) final first, in that order)

When she walked out on stage, that changed the entire mood of the show. Everything after that was great--the "Simon's Secret" bit, the Hasselhoff surprise, the duets and finally the winning moment for Carrie.

But that first hour, before the "Star Spangled Banner Girl", was slow and painful and awkward.

I hope AI invites those guest musicians back next year during the Top Twelve performances--specifically George Benson, Kenny Wayne Shepard and Billy Preston. Wow! Those duets--most of them--were great. They need to do that more often, IMO.
