Yeah, I'd bet on Jason and Brooke as the bottom two, and Brooke going home.
David Archuletta has a very nice voice, but he lacks the personality and charisma to truly be a star - in my opinion. I know there are tons of people who love him. David Cook may be cocky at times, but lots of rock stars are. He's got a killer voice.
One of my biggest frustrations with AI has always been that people vote for a fave rather than the best singer. I never understood why or how Taylor Hicks won at all. I've always hated the focus on the bad singers because they are "funny." I would love to see good singers from the start. But I guess that wouldn't draw the audience AI does.
I am so upset about Brooke and Jason! They are my favorites. I think they both have a great attitude and some interesting personality. They are very modest which is what I love about them.
David Archuletta in my opinion, is the epitome of AI. A young kid who makes it in the bigtime.
American Idol has always been more popularity than talent. Without a doubt, if any two should have been in the bottom two, it should have been Jason and Brooke (my two favorites), but the two in the bottom were the two that I thought had breakout nights! David Cook, I thought, did the BEST! I'm really starting to like him more than Jason, I feel he's showing much more talent and diversity, whereas Jason seems to becoming more limited. I love Brooke, although I think her emotions are going to start to wear on people. I know the whole singer/songwriter thing is all about feelings and emotions, but jeez!
I was sad to see Carly go, but I think Simon was right that she gets to leave on a high note and that is good.
I'm really sad and shocked to see Carly go! She and David Cook are my favorites. I think America got that one wrong last night. It's a singing contest. It's SUPPOSED to be based on who sings the best, not who like who more. My opinion is if your not going to vote for the right reasons then don't vote at all. I think it just ruins the show.
I agree, I hate that it's so much less about talent than about popularity. Brooke and Jason should have been in the bottom two for sure. Carly and Syesha both nailed their performances. I'm surprised Carly doesn't have a huge following, I love her to death. Of course I know she'll do fine for herself, but you know she was shocked that she was voted off. I certainly was! I think David Cook will win it all for sure and follow in Daughtry's footsteps. He's been a star from the beginning.
I know! Jason and Brooke should of definitley been in the bottom two! Jason was horrible Tuesday night, and Brooke messed up at the begining, and she was very pitchy in the middle. It sounded like her voice was hoarse. I think David Cook is going to win it to! I think he's the only one who has performed great week after week. Carly was on the news this morning, and she said she can't wait to record her first CD. So I'm really looking forward to hearing it.
I may be in the minority here but doesn't popularity and talent go hand in hand in a show like this? I mean, if a singer is talented but rather blah personality-wise then we appreciate them but they may not be our favorite. However, if the talent is more limted but they truly entertain us (hence their popularity) we LOVE them! Just sayin'.
That being said, my fav is anyone but David A ... he is cute and talented but just plain boring!
I thought David was outstanding! Syesha was good too...Brooke so-so...I had really hoped she would do better tonight! The other boys I didn't care for at all.
I was a little bummed...no Shiloh ~ Solitary Man ~ Stones ~
But hey! It was good to see...NEIL DIAMOND!!
I remember my first concert seeing him back in 1971....blah-blah-blah
