American Idol – Top 3
So we’ve made it to the top 3 and I must admit that I haven’t been this glad to see an Idol season coming to a close since season 5. I actually worked through that finale and never bothered to watch the entire show, it was “who cares” kind of moment and that’s how I feel about this season. Will tonight change my mind, we’ll see…
First round is the contestant’s song choice, second round is judge’s song choice.
- Casey James – Ok, It’s Alright With Me ~ Eric Hutchinson – That was really sort of bland and is a perfect representation of this season, who cares.
- Crystal Bowersox – Come To My Window ~ Melissa Ethridge – I was really expecting something more from her and this just wasn’t it. She’s still a great talent its just that the performance left me wanting.
- Lee DeWyze – Simple Man ~ Lynyrd Skynyrd – It was a really good performance and I enjoyed it, but we still haven’t hit chills yet. Of course he does come out on top when compared to the first two perfomances.
- Casey James – Daughters ~ John Mayer (Kara & Randy) – I only like when Mayer does this live, and Casey comes no where near that. It had one moment when I felt it might take off and then it didn’t.
- Crystal Bowersox – Maybe I’m Amazed ~ Paul McCartney (Ellen) – Okay, that was better, I liked that a lot more than her first song and it showed her depth and range.
- Lee DeWyze – Hallelujah ~ Leonard Cohen (Simon) – Wow, there was my chills moment, this performance was so far beyond anything else we have heard this season. Right now I care more than I have for the whole season. Way to go Lee!
My Ranking: Lee, Crystal, Casey
I’m not thrilled with this but it was better than last week. Too bad I don’t have one of those neat Sony VAIO notebooks, so I could put my feet up and relax while I watch and blog. Here’s to hoping the real fans out vote the VFTW crew and Casey goes home tomorrow.
