American Idol - Top 6

First of all, I thought this night was one of the best vocal wise. There were no vocal train wrecks, nd everyone sang very well, I thought. Performance wise... These were covered in so much cheese that they were sickening.

And worst of all?

I enjoyed it all. Kinda.

Fuck.

I felt like all the contestants really got into their songs and delivered very believable performances. It's gonna be a tough one from here on out - it is clear that each contestants have a strong fan base.

Chris Richardson — Change the World - Chris infused this classic with his own style. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of that style, buut I still think it worked for Chris. Of all the contestants tho, I felt that Chris was the one that felt his song the least.

Melinda Doolittle — There Will Come A Day - Melinda looked great again tonight. She needs to add a bit of color in her wardrobe tho! Very cheesy song, but Melinda reminded me tonight why she is the favorite to win it (wether we like her or not). Listening to this with audio only - she gave me chills.

Blake Lewis — Imagine

Singing right after Melinda - tough order. I think my boy did very very well vocal wise. He gave a very heartfelt, sincere performance. I agree with Paula, in the sense that I felt it was his first really emotional, sensitive performance. He looked terribly sad... True this song requires a simple performance, but I feel he could have done a bit more with it. I am scared for my boy tonight.

LaKisha Jones — I Believe - I have never Fantasia sing this song, so I guess I am not biaised. I don't feel it ws her best vocals, nor her best performance. But once again, I think she really felt her song. But why would she choose another idol song? Maybe to show she can be the next Idol? Not sure she succeeded in that tonight...

Phil Stacey — The Change - Tonight was the first time I was able to watch Phil for some reason. He delivered a solid, believable performance tonight. Yeah his voice was cracking a bit on the higher notes, but I kinda like it. Last week was still his best, but this week is a close second.

Jordin Sparks — You'll Never Walk Alone - The phrasing was so very slow.... Excellent vocals for Jordin, tho there were some pitchiness here and there... But she delivered such a great performance... Very emotional, heartfelt... I goptta say tho, when she holds a note like at the end, and she moves her head from side to side... It REALLY affects her vocals. Listening to the audio only, the final note is pretty painful because of her shaking her head. Still, Jordin showed me tonight that she is a very serious contender for the crown...

Best: Melinda, Jordin
Worst: Chris, Lakisha

Predicted B3: Chris, Lakisha, Blake
Predicted bootee: Blake :(
