I really like Jason and both Davids. I'm not over-the-moon for any of the girls, especially don't care for Brooke (sorry, techwife!) and I don't know why exactly. I don't like her expressions, and I think she's too thin ...

See...I'm a Jewel/Carly Simon folk singing, guitar playing kind of fan. So, I like Brooke for that reason...besides, I like how she can play an instrument, guitar or piano, as well as sing. More of a total package.

Well, I must say that I was totally shocked and disappointed that Michael Johns went out. In my opinion he was by far one of the best ... obviously got lots of talent, looks good and has great stage presence ... unlike many of the others who look like cardboard cut-outs on stage! But it's probably done him a favour ... I reckon he'll have record companies lining up to sign him.

Davis Cook would be my next choice ... I thinks he's very talented ... and looks good, despite the hair-do!

Agree with whoever said it, that David A is good but boring ... sorry, he is cute, but a bit too good to be true.

Carly is beginning to annoy me ... started off liking her, but now I want her to go. And Syesha I haven't liked from the beginning ... I don't know why, but to me she seems so far up herself that I just want to slap her!

Jason and Brooke ... I like them both because they are a little bit different and both have musical talent ... although Brooke I don't think has much stage presence ... one of the cut-outs.

Who have I forgotten? Oh yes, Kristy ... well she is just forgettable ... I can't even remember one song that she has sang.

AI is not good to the rockers look at Constantine (who I never liked) & Chris Daughtery(who I loved), so michael johns leaving didn't too much. I never really got the
Jim Morrison comparison--MJ didn't have jm's charisma in my book.

Even though Carly is a great singer she doesn't have a good fan base. Kristy Cook isn't that great but she has the country singer fan base along to push her through a bit more.

I agree with techwife--I am a big fan of Brooke--she reminds me of the female singer/somgwriters who actually play their own instruments. She does much better the weeks that she is playing something.

I look for final three to be the two David's & Jason.

I'm so disappointed in AI now! I was a religious watcher from the very beginning, but ever since people started voting for their favorites instead of the most talented, I kind of stopped watching. I think I stopped around Taylor Hicks...and we all know what happened to him. :P

It used to be one of my favorite shows!

Sadly, I started this thread bc I used to love the show too but I agree with Courtney. I think Taylor Hicks was the start of the downward trend. I haven't watched it in weeks. I'm bored. I don't think anyone currently on the show is an American Idol. They'll do. Kelly and Carrie you felt they were stars. You could feel it. There was never any dobut. I can't say the same right now for this season.

I really like Brooke or I probably wouldn't be watching this year..I quit watching last year when Chris Daughtery was voted off and didn't make it to the end the year Fantasia won. I did love both Bo & Carrie so I made it to the end and even voted a couple of times.

I do think AI is a popularity contest more than a singing contest but isn't that the way the industry is. Fot example, my daughter LOVED Cristina Aguilar when all her other friends were Britney fans. Britney definitely was marketed better at the time and was more "popular" but Cristina always had the better voice...

They're doing Mariah Carey songs tonight.

Should be interesting.

Haven't watched every time...but still liking Brooke best!

My faves tonight were David C, Jason (who my daughter voted for) & Brooke (who is always my fave)

Well the boys definetly were better last night.

Okay...I don't care about how annoying his hair is anymore...I'm a David C fan. His, and my other favorite, Jason's rendition of the Mariah songs were totally cool. I didn't vote... because I'm lazy and the phone was too far from my recliner.

I still like Brooke best of the girls. I think Carly is going home tonight. I don't mind her so much, but she seems to be getting a little overwhelmed or something.

And...my prediction for the final three is Brooke, David C and Jason. I like the Archulator's voice, but he's definitely more my mom's type. She also likes Josh Groban and, I guess, that's who the Archulator reminds me of. He could be in the top three, but he better not bump my Jason off to get there.

Last night wasn't so bad. I actually thought Syesha did really well, but I've always loved that song (have people really never heard it??) She still bores me in general, but I can't deny that she sang it well.

I loved David Cook, but I've mostly loved him all along (except last week).

I loved Jason, but I always love him too.

Kristy Lee has been doing better, but I still want her off my screen immediately.

Carly -- yuck. Always yuck. I like her a little when she's just singing and not doing those "power" notes (aka screeching).

Brooke didn't do so well last night. In fact, she's been going downhill for a while now...

Archuleta still bores me to tears, but he was a little better last night.

I think Carly might be going home. Or Syesha, because even though she sings well she doesn't seem to have enough fans to keep her going.

They're doing songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber tonight.

Wonder what David Cook will do? He always changes things up.
