Who's Going To Make It To The Top 2?

So, who's not making it to the season finale?

My thoughts on last night's show...

Danny - I've liked Danny from the beginning but last night's songs choices were nothing spectacular. I think he's in trouble. Do you agree?

Kris - Kris did 2 "current" songs. While his first song wasn't special by any means it was still good. His version of Kanye's Heartless was near perfect and totally redeemed him!

Adam - Personally, I don't think Adam has had a bad performance yet. Last night was no different. Adam is definitely top 2 material.

My Picks For The Finale:

Kris & Adam. I think Danny is probably going home.. However, I could definitely be wrong! ;)

Brat Pack Week Recap

Lil Rounds and Anoop Desai departed last week. And, I have to say that I really missed Anoop on last night's show.

When the show started and we found out that the idols were doing "Brat Pack" music I was really thinking it was going to be a disaster but after watching last night I think it went pretty well. Each of them had a solid performance. No one really blew me away but they were all really good. I will mention again here something I said on Twitter - Adam Lambert is too good for American Idol.

So who's my favorite?

This year's American Idol is unlike any other in history. There is so much talent that I cannot pick a favorite at this point. I've been saying it from the beginning - Adam, Danny, Kris & Matt deserve to be in the top 4. After seeing last night's performance, I'm excited and hopeful. Each of these 4 guys bring something unique and entertaining to the show.

My rankings for last night's performances:

1 Adam Lambert
2 Kris Allen
3 Matt Giraud
4 Danny Gokey
5 Allison Iraheta

What does the rest of America think? Will the guys rule the top 4 spots? Or will Matt will go home?

Movies Night Recap

I'm a huge fan of soundtrack music so I was very excited to learn the contestants were going to be singing music from the movies. Overall, tonight's performances were really good but I was particularly blown away by one unsuspecting contestant. I'll get to that right now...

Allison Iraheta - Loved this song but still not a very big fan of Allison.

Anoop Desai - Was really surprised by Anoop's performance. One of my faves of the night. Anoop is so likeable, right?

Adam Lambert - I absolutely adore Adam but I really wasn't feeling his performance tonight. Probably my least favorite performance of all.

Matt Giraud - Matt has always been a favorite of mine. His performance was good tonight. Loved him at the piano again.

Danny Gokey - Every time Danny sings I get emotional. It was a great solid performance.

Kris Allen - I was totally blown away by this performance and this song! Quite possibly one of the best performances of the season. It was current. It was awesome! Randy didn't like it. WTH? Think I'm "Falling Slowly" for Kris. ;) If Kris goes home something is seriously wrong.

Lil' Rounds - I like Lil' I really do but her last few performances, including this one, have been boring. I think it's time for Lil' to exit the stage.

Favorite of the night: Kris Allen Runner Ups: Anoop, Matt & Danny.

Who Should Go Home: Lil' Rounds but at this stage you never really know...anything can happen. Who do you think should go home?

Will The Judges Save Anyone? If Matt or Kris are in danger of going home I really think a save will be used this week. Your thoughts?

Songs From The Year They Were Born Recap

When I heard the idol hopefuls were going to be doing songs from the year they were born I was quite excited because almost all of them were born in the 80s and the 80s had some awesome music. Btw, I now feel really old because I'm older than all of the contestants. Boo hoo!

So, after watching the show, in my opinion (which counts for much of nothing really) most of the contestants just didn't choose the right 80s songs. What do you think?

Our Favorites Of The Night:

1. Adam Lambert - Adam's version of "Mad World" by Tears for Fears was awesome! I had a feeling he'd be singing a Tears for Fears song and it was hands down the best performance of the night. I think Adam is becoming my favorite.

2. Matt Giraud- Matt sang "Part Time Lover" by Stevie Wonder and it was really good! He really made it his own. I'm crossing my fingers that America loved him too and he's not in the bottom 3. He's definitely top 3 material!

3. Anoop- Wow, Anoop sang "True Colors" by Cyndi Lauper beautifully last night. I think this is the first time I have ever put Anoop ahead of Danny.

Least Favorites Of The Night:

Scott & Lil

Who We Think Should Go Home:

Scott or Lil

Dial Idol gives the top spot to Adam Lambert. The rest are "unpredictable" with Kris being at the main bottom.

Megan Joy Goes Home

We all knew it was just a matter of time before Megan was sent home. Were you happy or sad to see her go? Personally, I thought she was quite entertaining and would have rather seen Scott or Allison go home first but America voted and Megan is out.

Next week the idols will be singing songs from their birth year which means all 80s and a little bit of 90s music. Here are the top songs of 1985. What will they choose? Looks like Madonna, Bryan Adams, Wham, and Tears for Fears may be a part of next's weeks songs. Will Danny & Adam keep the top spots?

Do you have an ultimate favorite in the competition yet? This is the first year where I am torn between the awesomeness that is Danny, the entertainment that is Adam, and the cuteness that is Matt. ;)
