I'm sad. I really can't even tolerate Syesha and David A.

As a Jason fan, I guess top 4 is nothing to sneeze at. That's quite an accomplishment.

4th is nothing to sneeze at. I'm sorry that your favorite left.

But even Jason just said again he's in way over his head and with 3 songs next week he didn't know what he would have done. I'd rather see him go out before he completely falls apart. I do have a couple of his earlier songs downloaded from iTunes and he's a very good looking kid. He'll get experience on tour and mature a bit and ease into his career.

I am 100 percent convinced that Jason did the show as a lark. he never expected to go to Hollywood and ending up on the show was gravy. I am sure he did not want to go any further. I cracked up when he said, three songs next week!!!! Kid cracked me up

It was definitely his time to go, whether or not he's cute. He had his moment, top 4 is quite an achievement. And he's right... he was in way over his head. I'm thinking he never thought he'd get this far. Syesha doesn't thrill me either, but at least she's shown signs of improvement. Forward motion, y'kmow?

Mamie316, you're right. After all, look at the alumni of 4th place. Chris Daughtry is one

Jason is a breath of fresh air and I found him completely adorable. There is definitely a niche for him and I think we'll be hearing from him again. I'm very glad that Syesha made it through. Tess "little" David is the operative word. He has a terrific instrument but he needs a ton more seasoning before he's ready to have an impact on the music industry.

I know, Wink. Jason is adorable. Little David is a cutie pie with a pretty voice. Like I said about Jason, Little David will go on tour, get more experience (I hope away from dad) and he'll keep on singing. He's still in the aw shucks stage. I hope he never loses it all.

Well, now that David C made it to top 3, my local news is going nuts. (I live within 10 minutes of his home). I posted the links in the discussion thread where my local news will be following his every move on Friday when they go home to do the hometown visit segment for the show next week..they will be following his every step and streaming it live on our local fox news website. If you want to see him in the parade, they posted the route of that also.

Out of all of them I think David A has the most experience but I would imagine it's not all been good (if what we read about his 'stage dad' is true). Still, out of the F4 he is probably the most 'seasoned' performer. He just lacks personality, IMO. I think (as I have thought for a while now, though I do like Jason's singing voice) that Cook has this in the bag. Hope he gets it and, perhaps, with the money he can get his brother the best treatment possible. Fingers crossed for David Cook.

I dont know about your channel but Jason got maybe 3 words out of his bad Bob Marley song and was cut off. Time for a commerical break.

Ryan said just before Jason sang, that their time was almost up, but I saw probably a minute or two before he was cut off. He was actually putting more personality into his performance than he has all season, but it was still not very good.

I agree Naja. Syesha and David A do nothing for me. David C better win this. Personally my top 5 this season were: Brooke, Carly, David Cook, Jason and Michael Johns. I know a lot of you didn't like Brooke or Jason and thought they weren't "good" enough but when each was doing their own type of song I thought they rocked and I enjoyed listening to them the most. Jason's "Over the Rainbow" and Brooke's "Love is a Battlefield" were my 2 favorite performances this season.

I for one am glad to see Jason go, he should have left a long long time ago. He's a nice guy with a great personality but he sang the same type of song over and over, no range to his voice. David A sings the same type of song over and over, but at least he has a better voice, with no personality. I am also hoping David C wins the whole thing.

Syesha has a nice voice but I feel like she glory notes/sings in her upper register more than is needed. Also she seems to be acting a lot. I hope next week they're taken out of their comfort zones.

I'm one of the Syesha fans. I love her voice and her singing. I can't wait until she releases a CD. My playlist on my myspace page is full of Fantasia, Jill Scott, Mary J Blige, Mariah Caray, and other big voiced so called divas and I can't wait to add her to it. And according to what I've been reading elsewhere, I'm not alone ...

LadyT Syesha is my absolute fave this year (now that cutiepie Jason, who apparently threw in the towel recently, and IMHO has gotten his wish, and is mercifully gone). I totally love those dramatic-big-voiced-divas too.

While I think Syesha is improving, she ruined the middle of the Tina Turner song (what the HECK was she thinking, trying to emulate the best?). And she got screechy on the Sam Cook song, too. When she's just singing, without pushing it, she has a very nice voice. But then she tries to push it, or hit a top note, and she fails. I closed my eyes and listened to her second song, and ended up FF'ing thru it from the halfway point. I think the problem is that her voice isn't as big as she thinks it is. Paula needs to stop with the big voice thing when complimenting these peeps because they believe her.

I really like Syesha. I hope it's her and DC in the final two, but alas, I don't think it will be.

I actually really liked the first part of Proud Mary...then not so much when she got all shrieky. Really wanted a more soulful version of the Sam Cooke song. I am kind of with the judges in that Syesha doesn't really seem to know who she is. She wants so badly to be the Mariah/Whitney/Celine big note diva, but that isn't where her strengths are for me. But she just won't quit trying to nail songs like that. Yet every week she comes up short for me. I am very surprised that she is the last girl standing, truthfully.
