I was not too impressed with American Idol this week. The theme was inspirational songs but I would never have guessed that if they didn’t tell us that. Overall I just did not find the songs that inspirational. Again, here are my thoughts on my favourite performances to least favourite.
- Kristy Lee Cook - Kristy sang “Anyway” by Martina McBride. Definitely her best performance and the best of the night, in my opinion. She has been on the bottom three each week except for one and I think this week will be her second time not in the bottom three.
- Syesha - Syesha sang ”I Believe”, The song Fantasia sang when she won American Idol a few years ago. Syesha gave a wonderful performance. I think it is so unfair that she is the only one that the judges compare to others who have sang the song she sang. Isn’t the point of the competition to make the songs their own?
- David Archuleta - David sang “Angels”. Amazing as usual but I wish he would have picked a different song, him singing “Angels” is already all over youtube from his EFY and school performances.
- Brooke White - Brooke sang “You’ve Got A Friend”. I think this was a good song choice for her, it fit her personality and she sang it beautifully but she seemed a little nervous during her performance.
- Jason Castro - Jason played the Ukulele as he sang the Hawaiian version of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow. I loved this performance and that version of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow”.
- David Cook - He sang Our Lady Peace’s “Innocent”. Definitely not one of his best performances. He seems so cocky! It is annoying.
- Carly Smithson - Carly sang Queens “The Show Must Go On”. She sang the song very angrily and I did not like her performance at all which was dissapointing as I think she has one of the best voices of the competition.
- Michael Johns - Michael sang “Dream On”. It didn’t even sound like he was singing, just kind of shouting.

Horaayy..there are 4 comment(s) for me so far ;)
I forgot to post my predictions. I think both Carly and Michael will be on the bottom three I am not too sure about the third person. I think it should be David Cook but it may be Syesha or Jason. I think Carly will be going home.
I am glad David Archuleta sang Angels because now we can have a performance that we can actuially hear without tons of girls screaming and he did a great job! My favorite of the night! I loved Kristy as well. I didn’t like Carly or David Cook’s. I think Carly will be leaving tonight and I also find David Cook really annoying .. hopefully he will leave soon too.
I wish David Archuleta would sing a Josh Groban song.
Yeah! He would do so good singing a Josh Groban song!
