Idol Recap–Top 5

Simon called tonight the strangest show they’ve ever done.  I think I’m going to have to agree.  We haven’t really had too many Paula “moments” this season, but tonight made up for the dry spell.  Hearing her commentary on Jason’s second song that he hadn’t yet song was completely priceless.  It was all Ryan’s fault though.  He totally rocked her world when he decided to switch things up on her.

It was Neil Diamond night and I’m not a fan of his music, so my expectations were pretty low.  Thank goodness, because I wasn’t jumping up and down for anyone.

Jason–I love Jason.  That said, both songs were just ok.  Really nothing special.  The judges thought that he wasn’t trying to wow us and I have to agree.  

David C.–His first song was pretty forgettable, but I really loved the second one.  Paula said that she felt like she was already looking at the American Idol and I agree. 

Brooke–Her first song was “I’m a Believer”.  I didn’t know that Neil Diamond had anything to do with this song.  I love this song!  I did not love Brooke doing this song.  She really should try not to move when she sings.  The poor girl has no rhythm at all.  I’m going to have to agree with Simon that it was a complete nightmare.  What was she thinking?  Thankfully, she totally redeemed herself with the second song even with the cheesy “Arizona” line.  I thought she looked really pretty tonight.

David A.–Well you have to give the guy credit for attempting the two most popular of Neil Diamond’s songs.  I preferred “Comin to America” over “Sweet Caroline” , but I really didn’t love either performance.  I think I may be over him.   

Syesha– Alright, enough already with the bare feet.  What is the purpose of that?  Her second song was way better than the first, but I still feel like her problem is that she oversells the song.  She doesn’t need to be so theatrical all the time.  

The two that didn’t completely annoy me were Jason and David C.  My guess is that Brooke or Syesha will go home.  I’d be happy saying goodbye to either one of them.

    I’m over David A too.
    And it’s becoming clearer and clearer that David Cook should win everything.
    However, I voted for Jason just cause I love his music style. He won’t win, but I can’t wait for his first CD.

    P.S. I LOVED Water for Elephants!!! One of my favorites.

    I’m not much of a Jason fan. Tell me why you love him so much.

    The judges seemed to be pushing Jason out the door last night. I wonder who will go?

Got something to say?
