Who were YOUR favorites tonight?

Holly knocked it out of the park on her last song... Performance of the night, and there were many great ones..

 

[Steve]

Each contestant had at least one performance I enjoyed last night, except Phillip. Wouldn't surprise me if he left us tonight.

 

[CATCRAW]

I think the judges need to stop it with the standing O's that seem to happen with one contestant every week - not fair to all the other good singers on the show. Especially when it's not even for the singer they felt was the best of the night.

 

[Doug Brott]

I definitely thought Phillip did the worst this week with Elise not far behind. The others all did well and I finally, finally, finally heard not one, but 2 songs from Joshua that I liked. If I liked it, I suspect he's at the top of the bunch on the night.

My thoughts:

ROUND #1

JESSICA: Yeah, it's true that Rock is not her forte, but I LOVED the slow parts, and I thought she did pretty good on the Rocking parts... just not her usual greatness. Either way, I enjoyed it!

SKYLAR: I'm not a Skylar fan, but I've been impressed with her lately. I was not feeling this AT ALL!!!

JOSHUA: The performance seemed a little Las Vegas lounge act like, but I enjoyed it. I thought he did well...

ELISE: Not as good as "Whole Lotta Love," but I thought she did a GREAT job with it.

PHILLIP: I predicted he would sing this song, and he did a good job with it, but I wasn't really a fan...

HOLLIE: Contrary to what the judges thought, I thought she killed it!

ROUND #2

JESSICA: I thought it was VERY beautiful... not that I'd expect anything less from Jessica!

SKYLAR: I heard this song for the first time only a matter of weeks ago... I had no feelings for it either way, but I did not care for Skylar's version... I even walked into the kitchen while it was on. It was WAY too nasally for me.

JOSHUA: Unlike the first song, I have no criticism for Joshua on this one. It was great!

ELISE: Blasphemous I know, but I don't really know many Jimi Hendrix songs, and I didn't recognize this one. I thought she did a good job, but I didn't really care for the song.

PHILLIP: I'm not a DMB fan... I like "Crash Into Me" (the only song I can think of off the top of my head that I even know from DMB) alright, and I think DM does a hilarious Ozzy Osbourne impersonation, but that's about it. I didn't know this song, and while I think he probably did a good job of the source material, it felt incredibly boring to me.

HOLLIE: Anybody singing a Miley Cyrus song has a pretty low bar that they have to jump over. With that being said, I missed a certain amount of lack of perfection in the vocals that Miley brought. What I mean by that is, Hollie's voice is just so pretty, it kind of became a different song to me. Aside from that... I thought she did FANTASTIC!!

FAVORITES OF THE NIGHT: Hollie
WORST OF THE NIGHT: Skylar & Phillip
BOTTOM THREE PREDICTION: ??????, ???????, and ??????
WHO'S GOING HOME?: ???????????

DialIdol.com had some odd prediction stuff going on last night!

I checked the site after voting ended on the East Coast... and it showed these results (Green is safe... orange is too close to call):

• Joshua
• Phillip
• Hollie
• Jessica
• Elise
• Skylar

I then checked later once voting was halfway over on the West Coast, and it showed (the same thing as now):

• Hollie
• Phillip
• Joshua
• Jessica
• Skylar
• Elise

Weird stuff....

[Steve]

Weird stuff....

Not sure if it has anything to do with it, but VFTW endorsed Phillip.

Yeah... I mentioned that a couple of weeks ago.

[Henry]

Good show by everyone.

 

[waynebtx]

I think Phillip will go tonight .

 

[Alan Gordon]

I think Phillip will go tonight .

I still expect him to go farther...

Off-topic (but the reason for my post), but I just noticed where you're from... I think some of my family lived in Kingsville for a while.

~Alan

 

[Henry]

I think Phillip will go tonight .

Hope not ... we don't need another "Pia Moment".

 

[Alan Gordon]

Hope not ... we don't need another "Pia Moment".

As much as I'm rooting for Phillip to at least get to the Top 3, I REALLY wouldn't compare the two! :eek2:

Finally!

 

[Alan Gordon]

Finally!

I was sad... but I expected it!

While I was glad that he was out of the running for the finale, I don't think I ever stated for the record last week that I was sad when Colton went home.

Quite frankly... I don't want any of them to go, but tis the nature of the competition!

~Alan

 

[sigma1914]

I respect that, Alan.

Hopefully, DMB goes next. Poor Hollie keeps staying in the bottom.

 

[Drew2k]

I really like Philip but when he sings sometimes he looks constipated and I fear that the giant vein on his forehead will burst.

I noticed he wasn't in the Ford commercial. Also surprised he wasn't bottom three based on Wednesday night.

Jimmy passed a comment that Philip has not been feeling well, and the contestants joked about him faking illness, but I guess he must have been ill enough not to attend the shoot. (I honestly didn't notice, as I always fast forward through the Ford commercial in the show!)
