Audience has gone wild though. Randy standing. Paula says he's a true artist. Your personal best, Clay. Randy still cheering.

Simon--I think that performance could win you the competition!!!!

Clay - Bridge Over Troubled Water. Ok, that was unbelievable. Adding the choir was smart, maybe he will get the Kimberley Locke vote now. Simon was complimentary, yeah.

When I was a kid in church they told us the song was about drug abuse. Silver girl being slang for a needle. Never bought it mayself,but a choir? nah

Simon to Clay: If i'm being honest, i think you've been a little off tonight, but....I think that song could win you this competition


Well, Simon hasn't been honest or else he wouldn't have told Ruben that was an awesome performance on the Fly song (it was horrid). But, I think Clay just won with that final song.

Randy and Paula give him a standing O. (Gee, this looks familiar.)

Randy- I didn't know you could hit that note, DAWG
Paula- you took a classic song and made us feel like we were hearing it for the first time
Simon- if I am being honest, I think you have been a little off this evening. (Boos erupt) That said, that performance could win you the competition.

I don't mean to come off as a stone, but this was not a good night (at least for me as a listener), and I was not really moved at any point. Bring Kim back.

Considering the first time I heard Art Garfunkel sing BOTW, is it really "good" to be hearing it that differently? Hmm.

It will be interesting to see how Clay handles a song so full of subtleties as Bridge. It's not much of a "belting" song.

Oh Tabby, you know that I am truly smitten with Clay, but I was disappointed overall in the show tonight. Did not like all the frills. Thought they were both missing some sparkle. I thought they both had their best performances last and I would have liked to have heard them without that choir.

Overall, I think Clay did better, but then I would probably say that regardless because I respond to him emotionally (and isn't that what music is supposed to be about? :))

I agree Crossfire. I have been so unimpressed with tonight's songs that I am switching over to the last few minutes of the JAG season finale.

For me, tonight's winner would be Clay.

I loved it but not as much as Solitaire. Clay did good tonight but I don't think Rueben was up to par. Sorry I love him but he may have lost it tonight.

I agree LL,Clay out did him tonight. I'm still voting for Ruben though,he's shown how good he can be before.

WhyTF is Paul Anka there? Thank goodness SNL has already done their season finale, or they would have a field day with this!

koolaid-does it really matter, how they sang tonight? I think that the people are already set, on their choice. Tonight's show was just
window dressing; the phone system holding up
is the key to the winner:) That said, Yea, Clay!

I was just wondering the same thing Hotlantan.
