Based on tonight's performances, I agree any one of the three could be the American Idol.

If anyone wants to hear a beautiful rendition of Vincent, it is on Josh Groban's self titled CD. The song is awesome and its not even close to being the best song on the CD.

MODERATORS! Well I never.....vibrators, spit it out, seduction, finger wiggle, "late comers" (oh timers).

I thought this was a PG board.

i wish i could read posts and comment but i can barely watch the show and post myself with the web tv..
the judges dont seem to be able to make any criticisms of ruben at all. i love the guy but i thought the song wasnt a good choice and his voice was not able to handle the push. his worst nite for voice, but his expression was good

clay clay clay...it was the perfect song for him to do! I have to say,that of everyone, Clay has the supreme command performance, he knows how to handle the stage and ekes confidence,and exudes professionalism, but somehow i still felt that i was watching a performance and didnt get the goosebumps.. kind of like a movie where you feel the acting.

I am glad to see Simon say they all should win, cuz i sure wish they could!

dam, once again at the end NO signs shown for Kimberly...

Even with Clay forgetting his lines I think tonights winner is between Clay and Kimberly. I would be happy with any of the three winning though. I never thought I would say this but I think if kimberly is voted out I will vote for Clay for the win. Even though I dont think he can sell a pop album but I do belive he is destined for Broadway and for duets with Sara Brightman. He will be a million record seller but just not of pop style songs. No doubt in my mind on that one.

Kim 1.
Clay 2.
Rueben 3.

I agree with all those that say all 3 deserve to win and I will be happy with any of them and sad for whoever leaves tomorrow night. I think if Rueben leaves that he will be signed anyway, I don't know if that is true for Kim or even Clay.

Llkoolaid: I agree. They are all so talented. I do want Ruben to win, but they all deserve it. So, I'm happy whatever happens. I think they all will be signed.

Bye all and thanks again.

Busy busy busy busy busy so I am peeking in briefly.

Seamonkey, when you watch tonight, let me know if Clay winks while performing because if he doesn't, I have to eat hamster food. I said he couldn't do it!

Off to try again...

VINCENT song....if you want to hear a great version of the song...go to JoshGroban.com and listen to his version....it was fantabulous...just heard Clay and it was not his best effort...sorry to say, as having read the first part of the night's spoilers from eastcoasters, I was looking forward to Clay's singing...Bring it, Clay.....you are the man!! Even Josh said so in all his interviews this week!

Do I notice that Pauls is about totally disgusted with Simon tonight...I think I might have to slap him upside the head, if I were there!!!

Now, I gotta get dialin' for Clay...and Herm!! Hope she is still sharing him with me!!

I can't help myself. I just have to comment on Paula's hat. I had a hat just like that when I was in high school. We called it a 'pimp hat', black with the white band around it, minus the buckle/clip thing she had. I got it in Florida with some friends. We wore the hats in a few pictures when we were goofing around, and then NEVER AGAIN because it looked so foolish.

And I was 15, and it was 1988.

My American friends, please make some Clay votes on my behalf! His first song was his poorest performance of the competition, but at his worst, he's still better than all the others! I have to think Ruben will go tomorrow.

Sorry, they picked the random song in the morning of the show and had to learn it for the show. I do believe that Clay was out of luck on that draw. It is not the easiest song to learn and Kim realllllllly lucked out as she already knew the song.

Not exactly row, row , row your boat, if you never sang the song much before.
Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colours on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds and violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colours changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artists' loving hand

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They're not listening still
Perhaps they never will...
