You guys happen to see this ..???

It's been known all season that he put out his own CD in 2006. And Amazon (I believe) is very friendly to indie musicians, so I don't think this is anything new.

Can you read a persons face? Brooke is an authentic no BS young lady with possibiliites. But she has to conquer her nerves in order to move on.

I'm on a roll. Carly was strong tonight but with the songs she has thus far chosen the lyrics beg that you put on a big smile. She doesn't. Simon once pointed out one night ( memory fails me) that she sounded angry when the song seeped of elation.

I have already cast my vote at least 20 times for him already tonight and will probably vote some more!

Bigfish,

I admire your enthusiasm. More power to you!

I never voted. I'm a laid back lazy MF observer.

I really got miffed a couple of years ago when my favorite, Daughtry, got ousted and I had not voted. Now, if my favorite gets the axe I at least did my best to keep him on.

Who goes home tonight? It should be between Brooke White and Jason Castro.

Frank

Yeah, I think both Brooke and Jason proved last night that they are limited in range and style. I was actually disappointed with Carly as well...she's usually one of my favorites, but I kept waiting for her to take that song up a notch and was disappointed that she didn't.

I think Syesha proved that musical theater is where she belongs, because she knocked it out of the park. David A sounded the same as he always does, and David C wasn't great but wasn't uncomfortable in the genre either...

Probably Brooke, since I think Jason has a load of teenie boppers voting for him.

How else would he have made it this far.

Nice guy, but limited show of talent, presence, and poise. Although I think he might have Jack Johnson style carreer potential if he develops a bit more and sings with a bit more confidence, power, and conviction.

But for sure he will be on the block.

7 minutes to go and I wonder where is Syesha and Carly's fan base?

Frank:

People just did not call in and vote based on the performances last night. Jason definitely is getting the tennie vote and I don't know who is voting for Brooke. My wife told me tonight if Brooke wins she will never watch AI again. I told her I seconded her comment!

Now I know it's not a talent competition any more. Those were arguably the 2 top performances of last night. Both of them ending up in the bottom 2 is

.

Nothing more than a popularity contest.
