The song I still have in my head this morning is "Across the Universe". I kind of wish they let us have 1 more vote the next day because when the song is still in your head the next day it must have been good, right? Or maybe it's because it reminded me of "I Am Sam", one of my all time fave movies.

No one knocked my socks off. Then again I wasn't wearing any. I can see no objective reason to vote for David Archuleta. Paula thank you for telling us you disagree with Randy. I couldn't figure that out myself. Simon it's been a popularity contest since day one of season one.

I am on the Brooke White Fan Wagon. I love her. I think she is awesome. I also love Carly, but Brooke is my front runner. Such pure, solid talent. GO BROOKE!!

I thought Simon was dead on in his comments this week. I thought Ramele and David A. were very weak, but I think both of them have enough "credit" from past performances to see them through. I think the ones to go home will be either Christy, David H. or Syesha. I liked Carly, Michael, Brooke, and David C. Chikezie just blew me away. I often judge the performance by how long it takes me to wish the song was over. This one was over before I even noticed the time passing. Poor Christy, she was trying so hard to do what Simon told her, but she just completely misunderstood. The song she choose to go country just did not work. And she went too far country. She would have done better to have chosen a slower song and been a little more subtle with the changes. I could really see her going this week.

I can't stand the nurse chix hair. Does anyone think that actually looks good? Eye of the beholder, I suppose. Yeesh!

Her hair drives me crazy too, Escapee. Every time I see her I think: SKUNK My faves last night were Chikieze, Brooke, and Carly. David A. is another fave of mine but last night just wasn't his night. Bad song choice.

I thought David C, Carly, Chikezie were the best last night. David C, who I didn't care for that much earlier, has really turned it on the last two weeks. Chikezie has done the same. I just like looking at Jason Castro, although I think his lack of singing experience is really showing these days (I think he definitely has the talent but hasn't quite the vocal experience he needs to pull off some of the material he has chosen to sing), so I'm hoping that he keeps going. Michael Johns is just good -- although last night he didn't blow me away. I thought Syesha and Brooke were 'just alright' for me, and I thought Ramiele, Amanda, David H, Kristi and David A were pretty weak. I think David H or Kristi will go tonight (are we down to single eliminations?). I think there's an outside chance that it could be Ramiele but I agree that she has enough good will from past performances to make it through...although if she doesn't turn it up a notch in the next week she might be in danger (and sadly I think the same thing about Jason Castro, whom I love).

Oh Escapee, you're not the only one. I can't help but think it makes her look so much older than she really is. If you look at only her face, she's a very young, pretty girl, but when you step back and take in the whole picture she looks way older than she really is and it's all because of the hair. Not only the skunky part, but also the puffieness in the back. It's just a bad look. And I might be the only one, but I just don't like her singing or her stage presence...she never stands up straight when she's on stage. Whew...sorry...rant over.

Gurlie, I've been saying the same thing about Amanda. Sometimes I look at her and think she's an older woman and then they go close-up on her face and you can see how young she is. I'm loving David C. more and more.

When Amanda sings, she has the same posturing and moves that Elvis had. I agree, her hair makes her look older and harder than what she is. She needs a makeover to show off her pretty face. David A. was absolutely dreadful last night. If this was based ONLY on last nights performance, he should go home. My top favorites in order: 1. David Cook 2. Michael Johns 3. Carly

I love Jason Castro. I don't think he's the biggest talent or anything, just love his personality and presence. I also was truly impressed by Chikezie. WOW. What a great turn for that song. Being a die hard Beatles fan and John Lennon fan, I don't always care for how others interpret the Lennon/McCartney music. I thought both Chikezie and David C did such great jobs with their song interpretation. I didn't think it was a boring night at all. Maybe because it was Beatles music. I felt sorry for David A. He is talented and just seemed really unsure of himself and scared. I agree about Amanda's hair. It is too harsh for her. She looks like Herman Munster's wife to me. I think it will be Christy Lee Cook going tonight.

I am sick to my back teeth of listening to all the sniping and posturing between Paula/Randy and Simon and Ryan to Simon. Do they think it is entertaining or that it's cute? I just want each judge to say their piece and move along, that way a 2 hour show can be done in an hour without all the crap.

Yes, other people are sick of Randy/Paula/Ryan and Simon. Why don't they just let Simon talk...he is the only one who says anything significant anyway. Amanda's pants and her hair reminded me a lot of each other last night. It kind of freaked me out. And I agree - she looks older than she was.

Amen, Jasper! I know Ryan is a hard working guy and all but he really needs to get OVER himself. I really WANT to hear what Simon says, so SHHHH to Paula.

When Ryan was talking last night, I actually heard myself say "will you just shut up?" One of those moments was when he had Chikizee running around the stage, then Simon started in on Ryan.

That and the waving hands, my two pet peeves! ita Roxip about Simon's op. Paula's comments are insipid, you can be positive to people without piling on the sugar, sometimes the positive feedback from Paula seems insincere as it is too gushy.

Randy's "Dude, check it out. Dawg", yeah every time I hear that, I want to shoot my TV. Paula's comments are always the same, she's never honest enough. I like Simon, he at least tells the truth and more often than not, dead on with what I am thinking. I wish all the judges were more like him. He at least has something different to say to each contestant instead of the same old "I am a fan, I just love you" or "Dude, dude, Check it out, for me....." Oh bleck!
