There surely isn't a Malinda Dolittle or even Lakessha or Jordan Sparks this year so far. I thought the talent was better last year so far. No pure singers in the bunch. For the guys I hope the young 17 year old kid is in the finals, seems to have a wonderful stage presence and his voice is not that of a young man his age.
I don't watch this show (no, really I don't), but my wife watches it, and I happened to come over while it was on last night. Oh my god, most of the singers sounded pretty bad!! I heard some woman butcher "Eight Days A Week" by the Beatles and other Beatles' songs sounded equally bad. Heck, one of the guys couldn't even remember the words!!How do you watch this crap?? George

GeorgeIf those were the only two performances you saw, I can definitely understand why you'd think the show is crap. Those (plus the "I Saw Her Standing There" by David Hernandez) were easily among the worst performances of the last 3 weeks. But I think if you saw David Cook's goth-rock take on "Eleanor Rigby" or Chikeezie's version of "She's a Woman", I think you'd have a different opinion...
I am adicted to watching American Idol and I also think that this year's talent is some of the best in the history of the show. Last night I was talking about the show with my wife and I asked her if she thought casting a vote for the worse performance instead of voting for your favorite performer would alter the outcome? At the end of last night's show I agreed with America's vote so I guess voting for the worst instead of the best performance would not change the results. Anyway, it is one heck of a show and Simon is a real hoot!Ken
