Oh yeah! You go Chris!

 

[J.Cooper]

Chris was great! He's also a cutie. He reminds me of a younger Vin Diesel

 

[dolphindan1]

You know its funny..I just a couple posts earlier said I am not a rocker type...BUT Chris has maybe changed my mind...I knew he had the type voice to be a rocker but hasnt really used it he say some ballads earlier and I love that....A great voice can change a mind he did great...My wife says he might be the best looking now cause I told her he looked a little like Vin Diesal and she loves him...I dont get it...LOL

 

[Pig Pen]

He's such a dork. Next time I will have to close my eyes when he sings.

 

[J.Cooper]

I agree with Simon regarding Kevin. That wasn't great. Not sure what Randy & Paula heard?

 

[macraven]

i'm getting real tired of these new words paula makes up and the way she puts together her sentences. oh, i could, you just, it beams me........

 

[damo]

I gotta go with Simon so far tonight!!! Not hearing what Paula and Randing are hearing AT ALL!!!

My favourite .... by a landslide so far is Chris. Nobody else even comes close. The young guns just aren't bringing it.

I am sorry I thought besides one note Sways performance was terrible....maybe it sounds different in person...I didnt care for it...I agree with Simon

I'm with you. Sway sounded awful...so much so I was cringing imagining how they were going to rip him apart. Imagine my surprise when Randy and Paula praised him....talk about credibility issues. Good grief!

Good, I thought I was the only one that thought he was terrible. It was so annoying.

 

[Pig Pen]

Gedeon was surprisingly good! So far he is second to Chris.

 

[Slacking]

Whats up with Paula and Randy tonight (well.... Sunday night?)?

They seem to be loving almost everything leaving Simon to speak the truth.

 

[Spaceship Earthfan]

I think it's hilarious but once again I agree with Simon, I didn't care for Gideon and his smile is annoying, lol.

 

[tevagirl]

I think, so far, Chris was the best. I'm hoping Taylor gives him a run for the money.

 

[dolphindan1]

Kevin bless his heart...I just didnt care for him and that lisp drives me looney...Gedeon well I am kinda torn about his performance...I didnt think the song was the right choice but he performed it well...I think he has a good voice and should pick song to show it off....Anyone think that they are already marketing Ace and thats why he is performing last it looks like...I think American Idol is being very strategic with him...Mayabe I am wrong and I guess it happens every year I just havent noticed it till this season...

 

[LoraJ]

What number is Gideon?

 

[Pig Pen]

Did Simon just say that Elliott may be the best male vocalist in five seasons of AI?????

 

[LoraJ]

Did Simon just say that Elliott may be the best male vocalist in five seasons of AI?????

yes he did!

 

[J.Cooper]

Has Simon lost his mind? Elliot is not the best male singer since the start of American Idol????? Simon must be losing it !!!! Clay Aiken is waayyy better than Elliot.

 

[tevagirl]

yes he did!

That proves it's not coke in that glass that's sitting in front of him!

 

[Spaceship Earthfan]

I hate hate hate when Simon tries to push the people he likes by exaggerating things. The only reason I think Carrie won was because Simon pushed for her votes. Even tho his singing is OK I don't like Elliott and won't be voting for him for sure....the only one's I'll be calling for are #2 David and #4 Will....

Too bad because I agreed with pretty much everything Simon had said up til now.
