I like Natasha, but not a big fan of ND. So thanks for the info, LT!

Love the locks. It is so cool! I rent an apartment in Belltown for the week. Belltown Court. Neatsy area and cheaper than a hotel. Easy to walk anywhere. That way no worrying about a car. lol I like ND but am not a Natasha fan. Didn't really watch but a few minutes tonight. Glad you all suffer for me. ;)

Can I just say that Neil Diamond still has it!! His voice is like a warm cozy blanket to me. And to see him putting so much energy into his performance just gives me chills. I was glad to see Brooke go home. She was overdue. But how Sayesha ended up bottom 2 and Jason didn't is beyond me!

I am hoping for a David/David final. It was time for either Brooke or Jason to go; the order didn't make much difference. I love David A because he's consistent and I love David C because he keeps showing us more and more of his talent. I keep feeling as if Jason is "today's Arlo Guthrie"

Word is Jason was in the bottom two but they did not put him there because of the pre judging controversy. Ryan never called Syesha bottom two. The judges will try to get rid of Jason next week.

Sorry to see Brooke go. I really thought Jason was worse. Why do you think the pre-judging controversy (Paulagate?) would keep him from being announced as bottom two?

One thing ND did bugged me. When asked what advice he had for the contestants, he told them not to listen to Simon ... and he was not joking. I thought that was doing them a disservice with that. Simon knows what he's doing and he could conceivably help these kids if they listen to him.

As a Brooke fan I was sad to see her go but knew it was coming. I was surprised to see Syesha with her but then I realized that Ryan never said you are the bottom two; he only said one of you is safe and one of you is going home. I think it's a shame that if Syesha was 1st or 2nd as Dial Idol said that they put her through that. She's been in the bottom enough that if she really wasn't bottom two they should have sent her to the couch first. Hope Jason goes next; I just don't get him.

The problem with Simon is inconsistency. While he often gives the most helpful, coherent and honest advice, at other times he becomes very disillusioned, critical and negative to the point of completely losing interest and giving up on contestants. As a contestant, you have to know what parts of Simon's critique to tune into and what parts to tune out and that is not easy to do. I don't like the fact that Neil Diamond made that statement though. I liked Brooke and her performances much more than many many of the other Idol contestants from this year or past years. It truly depends on the talent, style and personality of the artist that attracts the fan. Some people appreciate things that other people do not like at all or even actively dislike. All part of show business. I don't get much out of David A.'s performances whatsoever. Jason has his moments. I don't find much unique about Sayesha's performances. I think David C. is one of the best Idol contestants in the entire history of the show.

Sayesha has totally won me over. I luv Broadway... so she's tops with me. I think her stage presence is flights above pretty much anyone else there except possibly David C (I hate to admit it, but his looks bug me. I prefer him when I just listen.)

http://www.rockhall.com/exhibithighlights/500-songs/ Early reports say this is the theme next week. Personally, I'd pay to see Archuleta do Superfreak!

David C really has the musicality (to borrow Paula's phrasing) to change the arrangements of songs to fit his voice and his style. Most of the other contestants don't really do that (pay attention to Jason, especially). That makes him a much better contestant, since he's not just spouting out a song that we've heard hundreds of times, trying to sound exactly like the original artist. The fact that he IS original on his own is what is exciting to me, and I am really hoping he wins this thing. Although, admittedly, a part of me hopes he doesn't just so he won't be bound to AI for the next year! (While Carrie did well, Daughtry has done well, too!)

If David C sings All along the Watchtower, I will be a happy happy camper. I bet he would do amazing things with that song.

David A will actually probably sing "Your Song" and "Love Me Tender".

Jason should do well with the Dylan songs and I'd love to hear Syesha do Aretha (although she'd be blasted by Simon)

You mean funnier than usual when you read the board and bust out laughing for no apparent reason?

That might be a fun thread to use to spend the week, while we wait for the next show. Pick a fun and a realistic song for each of them to sing from the list.
