American Idol Season 13 Official Thread

I think Sam or Jessica will be voted off. I won't be sad to see either one leave.

I've been hoping either would go for weeks now. It's really got to be one of them now though.

....I agree with this...Jena was really good with her first song, but 'meh' with the second...soooo, they cancel each other out, which makes her somewhere in the middle...

I liked Alex the best and the rest about the same. Caleb's first song was probably his weakest ever. He has a really tough time staying in tune while he is singing softly and he just doesn't connect with me for some reason. I think it is because he always strains his face all up and I can't actually ever see his eyes. He's a bit too karaoke quite often with his lack of control. Sam is just Sam although he is much more comfortable these days. Jessica just isn't my style of music so it is tough for me to like her and her personality just wears on me. Jena is consistently quite good but I'm not a big fan of the type of music she sings as a female artist.

Agreed!

Caleb's first song was not good but he made up for it with the second! Great move to make him last, he's going nowhere!


Alex got me with Say Something. It was perfect!

Jena was great with her first and okay with her second.

Jessica was okay with both but not good enough to keep her from the bottom this week.

Don't remember a THING Sam ever does because I just don't get him.

I think my favorites right now are Jena and Jessica. I think they are both peaking at the right time. Jena's song that she sang, Valerie by Amy Winehouse, is SUCH a fantastic song! Bruno Mars did the song as a tribute after Amy passed and that is my absolute favorite version. I loved it so much I had to look it up on youtube last night when I heard Jena was doing it. Jena didn't do it justice, but overall I think shes good.

I used to like Caleb but I'm tired of the rocker thing.

Sam and Alex do nothing for me.

....I think it would be a good idea not to tick Alex off.....

Couldn't watch the show last night, so watched it this morning.

The only ones I listened to their entire songs were Caleb and Jessica. The rest I fast forwarded after 10-15 seconds of each song.

Sam is okay, hope he doesn't go home tonight.

Gena just sounds to me like she has mashed potatoes in her mouth all the time, I'm ready for her to go either tonight or next week.

Alex can go home tonight, I've never cared for his style and singing. Drives me nuts that he wears high water pants and does the pee pee dance (another poster said that and I totally agree). I don't like his facial expressions most of the time either.

I would (and have already) buy music from Caleb and Jessica, but not the others. Still hoping for those two in the final.

This cracked me up!

TV Line is reporting that next week’s American Idol 13 Top 4 theme is Love: Break-ups and Make-ups.

Alex is doing great on ITunes. Say Something was beautiful, I actually listened to it on youtube this morning.

I wonder if this will be a factor in the PTB's minds about his marketability?

I'm not sure the show cares two hoots about marketability. They cut some awfully marketable kids before even giving them a chance.

So true...

I don't know if AI cares about iTunes. ITunes has not matched voting patterns. If my memory is right, Sam's recordings led all the other contestants until last week. And I think he was a strong second even then. Maybe they saved Sam because his recordings outsold everyone else's. The strange thing is that Caleb has never gotten high enough to show up at all on the iTunes top chart even though he appears to be popular. The others have at least shown up once. Caleb must be popular with the non music buying public.

Despite his obvious lead in marketability, I think tonight it will be Sam going home.

The fact that they don't seems kind of backwards. The Voice hasn't had a BIG star yet and they base their pics on Itune sales (one part of the equation). AI doesn't and they have a big stake in the profitability of their winner. Doesn't make sense.

FYI, the Voice's choices are getting predictable now, all you have to do is check the top 100 on iTunes and you'll see who stays and who goes.

Home now. Have the show on DVR. I read all your comments last night . Hope there is not too much drama tonight.
