Maris I think Mystery hits the nail for me re the professional delivery. She can't really be considered a diamond in the rough.

Sorry Mystery but after Sanjaya I'll take a little professionalism lolol. Oh good Blake seems a bit toned down so far....would have killed this song otherwise IMHO but he has time lol

Yep, that is what does it for me too about Melinda too. I still think she has too much of an edge over the other contestants with all of her experience as a back up singer.

I think there have been others in Idol far more professional than Melinda. I know at least a few others have had recording SOLO contracts in the pasts (wasn't Chris Daughty one? and I like him!) OMG Simon mentioned him as I was typing his name lol do do do do. I do hear what you guys are saying, but remember lot's other have done much more professional stuff than her. Oh I hope Jordin does well I enjoy her

I'll take Melinda over Sanjaya too! a little professionalism is good (I want people to have at least taken some singing lessons and thought about what it takes to be a singer) but Melinda's already a consummate professional. My favorite AI moments are when people reach outside their comfort level and so something crazy or unexpected or amazing-- even if it doesn't always work-- and I can hardly think of anything that would be outside Melinda's comfort zone.

I just cannot get into Melinda either. I do not know why, just don't. I liked Phil and Gina tonight and, of course, Lakisha. I love the Cure. And, I enjoyed Blake's version.

WoW judges loving her...sorry I really like her but don't tonight. Think they just want to play her up. And good point about the outside the comfort zone thing Mystery. I haven't seen Melinda, or most others for that matter, do that this year. Weird final group IMHO...def not the best. Wish they would read our input, I think it's seriously better than what they are getting from the judges tonight lolol

Funny about Jordin, she has also done a lot of stuff professionally, including releasing gospel music recordings, but she never strikes me that way.

Jordan sounded really nervous to me. I like her but, yes, the outfit was not my fav. Something a little funky would have been cool, but not this. lol

Since the second season of AI I never take what the judges say seriously. They're too busy pushing their own agendas. Someone who's going to make money from the winner, like Simon, shouldn't be allowed to be a judge, I don't think. Thanks to everyone who posted!

Mystery..she has?! Given her age I just assumed (and we all can break that down eh lolol) she didn't do anything. What has she done? She is definately one of my favs, but she didn't do either of the 2 things I think she needs to do...either give a really emotionally connected performance or sing the hell out of it. Jordin was just too "top 40 cutesy bland" for me tonight. Hope she is back to herself next week. Chris is sucking BIG time here iMHO btw

Oh gosh.. I know Jordin auditioned for American Juniors, and Star Search and that most talented kids show, she also released a gospel album when she was 13 that she got an award for. She's sung at pro-life rallies and she sang at Pat Tillman's funeral. She won a contest to audition for American Idol this year.

The show goes over 7 minutes tonight, just to mess with the dancing show I think.

So Mystery I guess rather than her being my diamond in the rough she's my diamond from Tiffanys?

Hee... no, Jordin's young enough to still be a diamond in the rough. I love how sometimes she shrinks to be the same height as Ryan. I can't stand the way Chris R. sings so nasally.
