American Idol Season 9 Thread Top 5

[lillygator]

am LOVING Lee!

 

[ColoradoBuffaloMom]

Count me in ...

I've become a Lee fan after tonight although I agree with Kara, he needs to start believing in himself.

Best performer of tonight was Harry Connick Jr.

 

[TruBlu]

Yay! Only 2 pages in, and I found you.

 

[Luvchefmic]

Glad I checked in & just in time for the new thread...have a lot of catching up to do...DH was home & on a Star Trek kick so I never saw the show

Ruthie---& wanted to send my thoughts to everyone effected by weather & the oil spill

 

[luvmy3]

I hope Aaron goes and then Big Mike and then Casey. I'm hoping that Lee and Crystal are the final two. I have liked Crystal from the beginning but in the last few weeks I have become a big fan of Lee.

 

[N&B'smom]

I am impressed at how much Harry worked with them all.

He really seemed into it! I'm going to see him in NYC this summer, so excited!

 

[happygirl]

Lee has been one of my faves since the beginning. Go Lee

 

[macraven]

tired of aaron and mike.

voted for crystal and lee only tonight

 

[charming23]

I agree Mike needs to go ASAP. I hope it comes down to Lee and Crystal in the finale and that Lee wins. I think he is one of the only ones who has grown as the season has progressed. I actually called and voted for him tonight.

 

[TwinsinCA]

I hope Mike goes next. He should never have been saved.

Then I hope it's:
Aaron
Casey

and Crystal & Lee are the final two, with Lee winning.

I thought this one of the worst weeks so far, song-wise.

This is exactly the order I want too.

 

[DianeV]

I think Casey is going this week. It will probably be Aaron next. Mike still has fans and I think he was really good tonight. One of the best ones. I am a big Lee fan though and have been since the beginning. So glad he is getting more comfortable and may give Crystal a fight to the end

Last night had to be the worst night EVER for any season final 5. NO ONE was great, or even good for that matter. I think Harry was excellent with them. I loved how he picked out that note for Aaron and showed him how it sounding. I vote for him to be all time mentor Maybe HE can replace Simon next season, if there is a next season?

Lee-I don't get it--he has about a 4 note range, everything sounds the same, he still looks petrified on stage, nope, don't get it.

Crystal has by far the most talent but her attitude and 'defending' herself has to stop.

The rest, just go home and save us the headache.

I liked Harry C on the show, but I don't think he would be nasty enough to replace Simon....but maybe that is a good thing. Maybe he could replace Randy and then we'd never have to hear the word "pitchy" again.

I really enjoyed last night, with Harry Connick Jr. as the mentor (love him!) and the five singing Frank Sinatra songs.

I couldn't believe how awful Nancy Sinatra looked, when she and her sister Tina presented Simon with one of their Dad's engraved handkerchiefs. Wow. She has had more than her share of plastic surgery on her face! She used to be so pretty!

I'm so tired of hearing Randy boo every time when Ryan introduces Simon each night. Why does he do that? It's immature, I think.

But anyway. I thought Aaron did a great job. Although I adore Casey I didn't think he did as well, and I'm afraid he might be the one going home tonight. I didn't expect him to win, but had hoped he'd be in the top 3 at the end.

Loved Big Mike. I've thought all along that he sounds a lot like Luther Vandross and I've always been a fan of Luther's so would definitely buy Big Mike's album if he puts one out with similar stuff. I'm glad he's still around.

I enjoyed Crystal's performance, and agreed with her that the song wasn't one to be "belted out", but sung more softly. I thought she did great, and really "looked the part" as well with that type of gown and the way her hair was done. I doubt I will buy her album though, as to me she sounds a lot like Janis Joplin and I'm not a fan of Janis Joplin at all.

Loved Lee's performance, and he looked so much more relaxed and confident. Will definitely buy his album, whether he wins the competition or not, when it comes out.

I'm expecting Casey to go home tonight, or maybe Aaron or Big Mike.

....I didn't get to watch the show last night, so I DVR'd it....









































.....so, I had about 12 minutes to kill this morning before leaving for school - I watched the 'short' version:

Aaron -

Casey -

Mamsox - eh

Mike - okay, THERE, I said it, I came outta the closet - I'm a 'secret Big Mike Fan'....whew, I feel better now...

Lee -

 

[MIGrandma]

....
Mike - okay, THERE, I said it, I came outta the closet - I'm a 'secret Big Mike Fan'....whew, I feel better now...

Good for you!! There ARE Big Mike fans out there, seeing he hasn't been voted out since the save four weeks ago.

...yeah, but I'm NEVA gonna hear the end of it from my mah sistah-gurlfren, Robin....

...AND, my fave still is Mamasox....

 

[kimmar067]

I think Casey is going this week....

...yeah - I'm sooo done with him....I, for one, did NOT care that he took off his shirt - personally, he was too scrawny for my taste...

This season isn't even worth an opinion. I didn't watch last night, all of them annoy me.

Don't care who wins or goes home. Mediocrity doesn't move me.
