Can you tell I am ready for the show?!! (9 pm EST) And if you are on the west coast haven't joined in on Jasper's game in this thread, look for it and join in! (I think he set a time limit that has expired for the rest of us.)

Clips of all singing. Carly, Michael, Jason, Syesha called up. All safe but Syesha. Randy:wrong choice for bottom 3 Paula: wrong choice for bottom 3 Simon: right choice to go home No result yet; just in bottom 3. She sang her song again, Got To Get You Into My Life Geesh, I thought she was better than Jason.

Chikezie, Amanda, Kristy and David Cook called out. Chikezie safe. Amanda safe. David Cook safe. Kristy Lee Cook in bottom 3. (She knew it--asked where the mike is--cuz she knew she'd be singing.) Song: Eight Days A Week. Sings again. Ryan did not ask judges' opinions yet.

I still like her country version of it. I think I am alone in that opinion, though. Now Ryan asks: Was that any better for you, Simon? No. Song not suited for that style, period. No final results for her yet, of course. Commercial Break.

So far I agree with the bottom 2...I would probably add Ramiel and David H as the last one....don't care who goes home from any of those.

I really liked Kristy during the auditions. I think it's nerves because she really does have a good voice. Just not cutting it though on the show.

Now taking questions on the air--and questions and caller stats are being shown on a big screen; only the voice is live.

HP...David is singing " I Saw Her Standing There". Yes, I was a child of the 60's and adored the Beatles. Still have a scrapbook that I started in 1964 and ended with the ticket stub from their last USA concert in Aug. 1966 from San Fran Candlestick Park

I was, too, but . . . am terrible with song lyrics and titles. So thank you, Crzndeb (Beatles fan!)and thanks, Penguin, for filling in with that info.' Last paragraph--wanted to record comments from judges about the 3 before David H was told. Ryan: Were these 3 the right ones? Randy: Hard. Probably right. Ryan asks, "Paula, where is your head?" Paula: On my shoulders. Never saw a 'more' (her words/syntax) strong bottom 3. Probably yes. Simon: (In response to, "Were these the right ones to be in the bottom 3. Did the public get it right?) Absolutely spot on.

If you don't know him from his composing and arranging outside of Idol, then maybe you remember him from back in season 5 when Foster was a guest mentor with the blind opera singer, Bocelli. I thought Foster was one of the most unlikable mentors Idol ever had on.

David Foster was also married to Linda Thompson (I think they are divorced), who was an Elvis girlfriend and later married Bruce Jenner (divorced). Geez, I need to go on some type of game show, cuz I have all this trivia in my brain...LOL! David is a huge music producer.

Foster was a keyboardist for the pop group Skylark whose song “Wildflower” was a top ten hit in 1972. He has worked as a producer with Céline Dion, Barbra Streisand, Kenny Rogers, Faith Hill, The Corrs, Brandy, Luis Miguel, Fred Norris, Richard Marx, Mariah Carey, Destiny's Child, Red Army Choir, Vanessa Williams, Anne Murray, Olivia Newton-John, Andrea Bocelli, Deborah Blando, Lisa Marie Presley, Lara Fabian, Dolly Parton, Julio Iglesias, Gordon Lightfoot, Madonna, All-4-One, Ricardo Montaner, Al Jarreau, Kenny Loggins, Natalie Cole, Yolanda Adams, The Tubes, Chicago, Peter Cetera and many others. Foster also helped launch the career of Kevin Sharp, after the two met through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He has produced debut albums for The Corrs,[2] Michael Bublé,[3] Renee Olstead, and Josh Groban, which were released under his own record label, 143 Records, and distributed through Warner Music. He also was one of the executive producers of John Stevens' debut CD, Red.[4] Foster also composed the score for the film St. Elmo's Fire,[5] including "Love theme from St. Elmo's Fire" which hit #15 in US pop charts. Another song from the film, "St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)", recorded by John Parr hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on September 7, 1985. He collaborated with then-wife Linda Thompson on the song "I Have Nothing" sung by Whitney Houston in the 1992 film, The Bodyguard. The couple was nominated for a Grammy Award and an Academy Award for Best Song for the song. Foster, along with Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, composed "The Power of the Dream" as the official song of the 1996 Summer Olympics, with Thompson providing the lyrics (sung by Céline Dion). He also composed "Winter Games", the theme song for 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta. "Winter Games" is the soundtrack for a fountain show at the Bellagio resort in Las Vegas as well as a fountain show at Sea World Orlando. In 2003, Foster won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Music and Lyrics for The Concert for World Children's Day. LOL - So he has done one or two things! Link
