Something must be wrong with me. I actually enjoyed a lot of the performances last night. Not Amanda. Not Asia'h. And poor little girl opera singer is oh so good on the preliminary clips but must develop stage fright for the live performance. i think she has potential, though. Interestingly, my husband was listening to the performance via my webcam as I was watching it. (he travels with his job)... anyway he could only hear the performances and not see them, which is usually a good test of vocal quality. He was very impressed with most of the performances vocally. I actually liked the girls' night better than the guys' night this week. And I'm a musician. I think I know good pitch when I hear it. Hopefully Amanda will go bye-bye. Maybe Asia'h too. Wow.

Don't even make them sit through who's leaving and when. I think we can bet that a guy will be this year's American Idol! They should just let all of the girls go.

I actually fell asleep several times and had to rewind on my DVR ... only to fast forward again because it was so bad! My question is .. why are they picking such obscure songs???? I LOVE 70's music, listen to it on satellite radio all the time .. but these songs really stink! I totally agree that these girls .. none of them .. had “it” last night.

She's terrible - BIG TIME!!! Brooke has a long journey ahead of her - I think she will make the top 3. Denise is right - what the heck is Amanda doing on “American Ido?” She’s terrible - BIG TIME!!!

She's like a zebra; is she a blonde with a black dye-job or a brunette armed with a jug of bleach? Watch out for Malloy; she may be the dark horse of the group.

So off key!! Fast Forward...Randy's comments....skip through Paula's...Simon's comments...skip through Ryan's (man, has he ALWAYS been this annoying??)....Next singer. Yikes, hit fast forward again. Only on the rare occasion where Randy starts off with something OTHER than "well, hey, you know I'm a big fan, but..." did we think "Geez, maybe we were too hasty, and hit the rewind." And then say...."Ummm, no. We weren't too hasty. They were just too darn nice." Ugh. Frankly, I found the commercials more entertaining than the actual SINGING and skipping those is the whole purpose of a DVR, isn't it? I'm beginning to think I would have had a chance this season, and I can't hold a tune in a bucket. (At least we would have had a local connection to grasp on to! :) You know it’s sad when we can scrunch the whole show down to 27 minutes on TiVO…singing….ack! So off key!!

I was not wowed or anything however. Carly was my fav last night. She just has the "package". Kady needs to be the one to go for sure. And Amanda. I love rock and I was a huge Joplin fam but even saying that, this woman is not *it*. She kinda scares me a little even lol. Kady? omg. She is So full of herself and trust me, the porn industry is keeping an eye on her. I would put money on it! She really is good looking but I dont think even an 18 yr old hypersexual boy thinks she is as good looking as she does! Learn to dance and she has a big future in the *other* industry ha! Brooke.. well she just IS Carly Simon but .. I find her cutesy sweetness a bit over the top to be honest. And blonde #? is a cookie cutter version of Carrie Underwood so that could help/hurt her I am thinking. Wonder what the genre will be next week? I can see why the ratings have gone down so much on it though. I have been an addict to idol for every season and the entire universe knows not to call on those nights. I sat on the phone for half an hour last night and didnt even flinch. And is it me or has the stars fllen out of alignment and the earth tilted a bit on its axis? Because, Randy seems to be pms'ing a lot and Simon seems to be the nice one. I am irritated at how irritated Ryan gets with Simon and to be honest, it was not "entertaining or amusing" that on guys night he thanked only Paula Pocket and Randy Ridiculous. He just needs to grow up I think but thats me. Well I just have to say the girls were better than the guys. I was not wowed or anything however. Carly was my fav last night.
