You know Simon said a lot of ugly people have won the idol shows. I have to disagree with him, I don't think any of them on there are that bad looking at all. I wouldn't call any of them ugly.

Wilson: You read right. The cutaways here in Canada sucked bad.

Hmmm, this is tough, I need more than one tune to make my call on such an 'important' decision. Quite often I can be much too influenced toward or away from someone just based on how much I like the tune they did.

I don't think they are ugly either, Tatyana, but Simon's personality can be. My favorite was Kurt. I didn't see AI1, and this is the first performance I have seen of Kelly's that I have been impressed with. I think she stands a good chance of winning. I wasn't paying attention...when is this on next?

I wish there were more shows. Cut the number down this week and bring back the finalists or something. Two minutes is really not enough time to judge.

I missed everything after Diana I think. My sister called from Chicago and we were on the phone for an hour or more. Time to watch the tape and go back and read the thread.

not that it matters but just to clear up a mistake on one of the posts (i know they tend to talk fast in the bios) Diana from the Pan Arab group is from Jordan. She was completing in the pan Arab finals against someone from Lebanon, which is why that country was mentioned in the bio.

I thought I saw Simon sitting at judges table, how come he didnt give his views?

I think they edited out a number of judges comments because they only showed a few for each one but Simon does make his presence known. I thought Will's song choice was terrible. "Light My Fire" is Jim Morrison. I don't care if Will did do the Jose Feliciano version, there is a reason people remember it as a Jim Morrison song.

I think Feliciano's version had a big following too.. I'm on the Belgian rocker now.. I always have a soft spot in my heart for the rockers in these idol contests!! Interesting judge eruptions..but the guy has a point.. why should he NOT be in the competition?

To be blunt, all in all it was a pretty nasty show. The judging was somewhat biased and very mean-spirited (funny though). The contestants are already all winners in their own countries with a substantial fan base and I think that as such they deserved more respect from the judges - it's not like it was their first audition. Simon and Zach (the Canadian judge) bickering back and forth probably didn't help either Kelly or Ryan very much. I don't seem to be much in-synch with other's views, but here goes. Ryan gave his usual solid performance - although I'm Canadian I just don't feel a lot when he sings. I like Kelly very much but I really didn't think her performance tonight was all that special. Kurt from Norway was great. I had a lot of hope for a great performance from the Australian but I found his performance to be a real letdown. I really dislike Come on Baby Light my Fire and I thought Will sounded pretty lame singing it. I know I'm in the minority but although I thought the Polish judge was a bit of a fool (though again he was funny), I really liked Alex's singing. She gave a heartfelt passionate performance and she was really personable and spunky with the judges.
