I didn't like Neil Diamond when I was young, but I like him a lot now.

I am still thinking and wondering about the elimination of Michael Johns, trying to figure out what might have happened (other than the typical Idol conspiracy/tampering theory, of course!). The only thing I can think of is that, to me it seems that alot of people that like Michael Johns also seem to be fans of David Cook. I know that both of them have been my favorites so far this season. Up to now, David Cook has always been so solid. However, he had somewhat of a rough night on Tuesday. I have to wonder if people didn't jump to vote for him to make sure he stayed safe, and ignored Michael Johns in the process? For example, if fans that who would normally throw a few votes both ways focused solely on David Cook instead this week. I just can't figure out any other way that he could possibly leave before Syesha, Kristi Lee Cook, or even Carly! I am really shocked and saddened to see him go...

He's older than the others and married, so doesn't appeal so much to the teeny-bopper crowd. He's Australian, not with a strong local town voting for him. He has a similar sound to David Cook a lot of the time. I think, among the men left, he was doomed. I would guess voting will be high this week, because of the reminder to vote that we all got last week. I think Syesha will go, regardless of what she sings. But Carly also better watch out. To me she falls in the same category as Michael - doesn't appeal so much to the voting demographic.

Kitt, Michael Johns has lived in Atlanta for the last ten years. He had a big town supporting him. I absolutely agree with you Carmen about the whole David Cook thing. If David Cook had a decent night last Tuesday night, and the fans felt that David Cook wasn't in jeopardy, Michael Johns would still be in the competition.

I don't know Lexie, living there as an adult isn't the same as having a high school or two rallying for you. The show is geared to youngsters, anything that traps in youngsters gets you votes. I think it makes a difference, him not growing up here.

Another issue with an "older" fan base, is that I think we are more likely to tivo the show and watch it later. We don't sit there with our mobile phones texting with all our might. At least I don't. If I'm really moved, I'll vote for someone. That's if it's still within the voting time period when I'm watching. Many times it's so late when I watch that I can no longer vote. For what it's worth, my favorites are/were David Cook, Michael, Carly and Brooke.
