David A....Love Me Tender...well once again every little 12 year old girl across the country is peeing her pants about now. I can listen to him as long as I'm not looking at him.

David A. singing Love Me Tender. Randy: Another great performance. Dude you've got it going on right now. Hot vocals of the night. Paula: Favorite performance from you. Simon: You didn't beat the competition tonight. You crushed the competition. (Ed. I'm not a David A fan, but he did a very nice job with this song.)

Randy has been right twice. Simon is right now, too. David A was the best tonight. Too bad he is soooo young--and has the "cute" face he has. Makes it hard for him to be taken seriously. Oh, just heard the first song David C. sang. LOVED IT!! Have to look on YouTube to listen to everyone again.

Wink I'm with you. Someone said he looks like Eddie Munster, I tend to agree with that (sorry to snark on a teenager but, well, he put it out there for me to pick on). I didn't care for that song the way he sang it, but he does have a nice voice and he doesn't appear stoned. Oh he might be literally stoned by his father if he doesn't win this, but that's for another week I think.

For anyone who is so inclined to vote for Jason C., I had the wrong numbers for him in my 5:25 post. It should be 5703 and 5707 (but I kind of doubt anyone will notice that I posted the wrong number for him).

I thought Syesha was amazing in her second song. It brought tears to my eyes the way that Paula stood up for her....I suspect that it kept Simon honest. Archuleta finally actually deserved the judges praise this wk...but he still bores me like most of us old folk, apparently. Lol he does look a bit Eddie Munsterish (and hopelessly stuck in puberty), but I still think he will age well

Luckily, I recorded Ellen today so I'm getting to hear Michael and Carly sing in Chicago! If Dialidol is correct, VFTW isn't helping Jason enough..

I loved Syesha in her second song. I swear the girl looks like a star. She has grown so much since the first week. It is amazing. I really liked David A. singing Love Me Tender. I am not one who usually likes the "make it your own," thing. So many times it just ends up butchering the song. But he made that song sound like it could have been written yesterday, without losing the essence of the original. Loved it. I thought David C. was better in his second song. More feeling, more expression. Jason was just a mess. I doubt if he is stoned. How could you tell if he was. He just always looks like he is half asleep. If he doesn't go this week, it is proof that Idol is NOT fixed, because there is no way they would want him in the finals.

I just finished watching the show, omg I can hardly believe it. First off, the songbook they had to choose from is the bible of rock and roll and IMO Jason Castro should be ashamed of himself ! I remember his rendition of "Hallelujiah" and now this? I agree with whomever said Randy was disgusted with him. Randy is a producer, he knows the industry. If Jason Castro wanted out, he should have said so before he was handed a mike! First off if you represent the rasta culture with your hairstyle, one would think you KNOW something about the music, no? When he first alluded to which song he was doing he said "I picked one..." for a split second, I thought he was gonna pick "one" by U2 and I was clapping madly, that song KILLS me it is so powerful, then I realized he was taking on Bob Marley and I thought you better do Bob Marley justice, at least know how do dance reggae! I can do a better reggae dance and I am a white suburban mother! Not many people can touch Bob Marley but if you actually represent that culture and style, you better not <100> it up! He made a mockery and when he laughed about doing both "Bobs" I wanted to hurl something at the tv when he <100> Dylan's lyrics! Can you say laughing in the face of America or what? JMO of course. He takes on two icons and messes BOTH of them up? Come on! I had to rewatch to make sure I wasn't hallucinating! If he wanted out, he should have said. Maybe he was annoyed how Paula <100> last week. IMO he treated the whole evening and opportunity as a joke. ETA: Off to take a chill pill.... but seriously, you make final four and then this? He really made me feel like the whole thing was a joke to him. In baseball terms - he could have least gone down swinging.

I liked that second song of Jason's. Never heard the first one before and did not like it so much. Loved Hungry like the wolf cool fun song. Did not know what that 2nd song David c did and did not like it but he sang it well. David A did safe and it was good. Syesha did a real great job. Where did this girl come from the last few weeks. She used to be the most boring forgetable contestant. Good for her and i hope they don't throw her under the bus next week to get their two davids in the finals. Oh and i now believe Paula has more credability than Randy.

I've only seen the first four so far (so much DWTS tonight!) but I get the impression they all peaked too soon. Jason had a real charisma early on, that seems to have turned into apathy. David C was just excellent three or four weeks ago, when he was reinterpreting songs or using unusual versions - with two songs a week it seems like he hasn't got time to do that. David A seems samey. Only Syesha seems to be coming into her element, but she doesn't seem to have that Star Quality. OK and now I'm listening to David C's second song and I liked it, so ignore the rest of the post!

I get the feeling that David C is very controlled in what he is doing right now. The songs, to me, just seem to be just on the precipice of being really outstanding (well, the 2nd song, at least) I think it was Randy who told him to just let it out and do his thing.
