American Idol, Season 5 **Official Discussion Thread**

[Shugardrawers]

Yet again CHRIS ROCKS Just give him the prize now and get it over with.

 

[PrincessPatty]

I have a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE crush on Chris ! He needs to make it!! I

 

[Shugardrawers]

Chris can really fill out those jeans too

 

[damo]

Oh ya, Chris nailed it. He is just so professional compared to the rest of them. Bucky was really good tonight too.

On the whole, the guys did a good job.

I think that David and Jose will be the ones to leave.

Is anyone else getting annoyed with all these judge comments to each other about Paula and the guys, Simon and the young girls and now Ryan undressing David? It is just getting stupid.

And what was Taylor talking about a toboggan on his head? Who calls a beanie a toboggan? We call it a toque up here.

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

Chris is going to rock!!!!!!

Oh no contest--he was HOT!!!!

[twinkles]

Wow! How hot is Chris!! He has the whole package! He is your American Idol!!

 

[Sandy22]

Wow! How hot is Chris!! He has the whole package! He is your American Idol!!

He's going to be hard to beat. He's got the female vote wrapped up.

 

[damo]

Wow! How hot is Chris!! He has the whole package! He is your American Idol!!

I just hope that people vote for him and not just take it for granted that he will get through and then vote for those with weaker performances who might be in jeopardy.

Chris. Wow... he's just a strong, natural talent. And hot. His performances seem honest and from the heart, not contrived or self-concious like some of the others. He nails it every time! I really think he's the one standout talent of the entire bunch.

David Radford- such a very cute kid, and the Frank Sinatra thing is fun, but not enough to build a whole career on (unless you've got REALLY strong chops and great talent and charisma like Harry Connick, Jr. ) David could have a nice career singing in a lounge on a cruise ship.

Will- just can't get past the Peter Brady look. He has a lot of strength and nice tone in his voice, but not much charisma or style yet. He's stiff and self-concious. I think he might grow into his voice in a few years.

Bucky- I just don't "get" him. Okay talent, but something's just odd about him.

The best vocal performances tonight- Chris, Elliott, Gedeon, Taylor.

Best overall performers- Chris, Taylor and Gedeon.

I hope Ace can bring it a little better next week, I think he has talent (and he unquestionably has TONS of charisma!) , but maybe he's been overhyped to the point that his image overwhelms his reality.

I missed the last 4 performances whhaaaaaaaaa

did they get good comments from the judges? I am assuming Chris did but the others? Bucky? David, Will? Help out an old lady here!!!

 

[Mickey's sunshine]

Chris.....wow!! I think he could possibly be our next American Idol.

While some of the guys were not that great tonight I do think they were FAR better than the girls last night.

I enjoyed Bucky, love Garth and that song. Elliott was great. I liked Taylor and Gideon as well. Ace was ok as was Will. Chris was AWESOME baby!!!!!

Bucky got good reviews from Paula and Randy but Simon said he would always be an opening act.

None were impressed with David and they gave a lukewarm response to Will.

Thanks Damo. I was hoping better for Bucky. Hopefully he will stay another week....

 

[Mickey's sunshine]

Bucky sang The Thunder Rolls

 

[Sandy22]

Thanks Damo. I was hoping better for Bucky. Hopefully he will stay another week....

The audience really liked Bucky's performance. I think he'll make it another week. I also think he's much more realistic and credible as a country boy than Kelly is as a country girl.

 

[jlaspoq]

I thought I saw Bo in the audience - was he acknowledged? I missed the opening. Wish we could hear him sing instead of these new guys! I think I heard Ryan say that Carrie is singing tomorrow night.

I loved Chris like most everyone here seemed to. I liked Bucky, too. Elliott was great, although I didn't really love the song. Ace was a big disappointment tonight. Gideon was a pleasant surprise. I didn't care for most of the others tonight - especially Sway and the Crooner. (and I like crooners - he just doesn't have it.) They can both go anytime.

 

[damo]

I LOVE Chris's sideburns!!! They are so cool!

 

[MELSMICE]

Wow! How hot is Chris!! He has the whole package! He is your American Idol!!

I have to say that if I saw him on the streets I wouldn't look twice at him, but he is one hot hunk of guy up there on stage!!!!!

BTW - what is the # for AI - I want to vote but don't have it commited to memory yet. I know he is #10.
