What a shocking and upsetting elimination show. I somewhat understand Todrick and Katelyn, but Alex and Lilly? Unbelievable. I guess only high school girls and worshippers of the mediocre were voting this week.
Oh, well. I guess it’s time to move on. Going into the finals of American Idol, here’s the Preliminary Top 12 as I [...]

OK, I don’t have a lot of time tonight, so I’m going to speed through this.
Who Should Go Home
Tim Urban has shown improvement, but there is just not enough there.
Aaron Kelly is underdeveloped.
Paige Miles has now had three chances to impress, and has only gotten worse.
Katie Stevens is in way over her head.
Who Will Go [...]

Good song choices on the whole this week made this post a pleasure to put together.
Videos below the fold!

Let me open with this: Thank you, ladies! There were some duds, but on the whole, that was a great show.
And how about Lacey Brown? Maybe it wasn’t quite the turnaround that Alex Lambert had, but it was certainly impressive.
How much does this shuffle things up? Not all that much, actually.
Crystal Bowersox. With the exception [...]

Why, hello there! How are you this evening? Welcome to our Episode 19 live blog.
I hated the girls’ song choices last week, with few exceptions (mostly Crystal Bowersox). Will this week be better? Man, I hope so. Picking a song she couldn’t sing cost me my beloved Haeley Vaughn, and I just don’t think I [...]

This series is an experiment. If it proves popular, I’ll do it all season. Please let me know if you find it valuable.
After watching the performance shows, I sometimes get a hankerin’ to revisit the original version of one or two of the songs covered, or, on the rare occasions where I don’t know the [...]

While opinions on these singers are all over the place, a handful of favorites are emerging. Crystal Bowersox was stunning last night, and Casey James remains popular despite stumbling the previous night. Michael Lynche strengthened his hand considerably with a great performance on Tuesday, and, despite my negative opinion of her take on Aretha, Siobhan [...]

An interesting show to say the least, if not a particularly good one. The guys definitely out did the girls overall this week, but a few stood out. Not many changes at the top this week with a couple of exceptions – One big riser and one big dropper.
1. Lilly Scott – It was really [...]

With a couple of exceptions, tonight was a mixed bag. A lot of the singing was good, and occasionally better than good, but the creative choices made by most of the performers were lousy. However…
Crystal Bowersox made a great creative choice, good for a five-slot jump. “Long as I Can See the Light” was a [...]

Last night the guys improved greatly, which is to say that they went from horrible to merely mediocre. I hope that means that the girls will step it up and move from mediocre to good.
Of course, the big news this week is the health of Crystal Bowersox, who went to the hospital yesterday morning. Rumor [...]
