I loved her in her audition, for the life of me, I can't figure out why she swallowed helium before she sang this time!

Yea, I liked her audition. She proved she can perform on stage. But I wasn't real fond of her "I'm all that" attitude. Didn't care for the Bette Midler/Barbra Streisand/Fran Drescher mixed clone for the same reason. I guess I'm more interested in them performing on stage, but don't care for the backstage "performances" as much.

Last night was a waste of an hour. I would have much preferred hearing more singing, than the "tense" build up from Paula, it was riduclous and just plain cruel. jmo

Who, you are so right about the sassy 16 year old being a mix of Bette, Barbra, and Fran!!! lol I don't think her attitude will carry her far with the public voting, she needs to take lessons from Fantasia on how to be sassy but lovable. My top 3 men are Constantine, Mario, and Anwar. Not sure about the girls yet.

I thought it was funny how they didn't show the guy from New York who was so fantastic until after they had gone through Room 1 (sorry, I'm horrible with names - but he's the one who went to church after his audition crying and told the congregation that he had made it through - probably a front-runner for the competition unless he doesn't play well with the live voters). If we had seen him we would have known Room 1 was going to make it from the get-go (even after that they only showed a quick shot of him crying in the background). I think the only reason they showed Mario was because his song was iffy. Mario, dude, you just aren't Freddy Mercury (I think it was a Queen song)! I thought the girl who sang "Let Freedom Ring" (do I have that right) did a really great job of sounding like the original singer. She started out a little shaky but did well on the chorus. I really don't care much for the other really young blonde singer. I was surprised that she made it through. I was sick of seeing her cry for one thing!

To build the suspense of last nights show they intentionally left out the best performances from rooms 1 and 4, the rooms that got through. I am sure there were some "wow" performances that they couldn't show without revealing which rooms made it. Many, if not most, of the people they showed last night from the groups who made it will be eliminated tonight, I be thinkin'.

Roxip... that was Carrie The Farm Chick singing Martina McBride's "Independence Day," which didn't surprise me because she said in her original audition that Martine McBride was her favorite country performer. I'm going out on a limb here (please don't hurt me), but I think if Carrie makes the Top 24, she will go further than some are giving her credit for. I look at her and I see the whole package. And Simon who will spend $3 million promoting the next AI, sees the whole package. JMO, but I think she's going to go further than most are giving her credit for. (Having said that, she'll prolly get cut tonight)

I liked the high pitched girl singing and her spunky atttitude, I was surprised she didn't make it.

Is that trach person still around? I'm feeling confused. I think they've already set up who, or at least what demographic, is going to win this year, barring some unforeseen circumstance.

I have a sneaking suspicion he will be both male and white. Just a feeling I have. I've been known to be wrong a hundred million times though.

Well I guess they've covered the white female, black male and black female categories.

Isn't the trach guy Antony? If so he is still around. I liked Carrie too. However, don't know how she will do as a "pop" singer - only time will tell. But she's young, blonde, attractive, innocent-appearing and that is a very good combination on AI. Okay, I realize it is a "style" thing - but one thing I really get so tired of during these shows is these singers "oversinging" the songs - they add all these trills and thrills and uhhs and oohhs to what are otherwise great songs - it just doesn't do it for me. I didn't start liking Fantasia last year until she actually started singing the songs and not just "styling" them. That may not make sense to anybody else, but a good song doesn't need a lot of embellishment.

I agree with you about Carrie, Lexie. She could be very marketable. Tish, the boy who had the trach is still there. You're probably confused because they didn't mention the trach last night...for the first time! He sang the song he had sung at his first audition and hoped that wouldn't be a mistake. I think the judges have their winner chosen. It isn't as obvious who that is this year as it was last year. IMO, the way they tell the rooms if they are continuing or going home is unkind and does nothing to add to the entertainment value of the show. I'd much rather hear more of the perfomances.
