Well, it was Dolly Parton night, and I thought it was a great night for the idols overall. As usual, I’m at odds with the judges on a few of the performances. This is how I saw it:
Michael Johns was, for me, the clear winner of the night. He really looked and sounded like a star tonight; and I thought this song fit his voice incredibly well. It was one of my favorite performances of the entire season. The touch of blues really worked!
After Michael, I really felt that Carly and both David’s all have an equal claim to the second best performance of the evening. The ballad suited David A. voice perfectly, and David C. is becoming a consistently good performer (3 solid weeks in a row). I thought Carly was awesome tonight. I usually agree with Simon, but for some reason, he just doesn’t seem to ‘get’ Carly. I think Carly has the best and purest voice of all the girls, by far.
For me, there was a sharp drop off after my top 4 performances, and I wouldn’t be surprised to find any of the remaining Idols in the bottom 3 this week. I know Ramiele is well liked by fans, but I will not be surprised to see her in the bottom 3 this week. I continue to think Kristy voice is good, but a notch below the other idols - so I think she also will be in the bottom three. I’m going to guess that Syesha will make it an all girl bottom 3 this week.
