Just watched Casey, James, Stefano and Paul singing together. Maybe it's me but i thought they sounded horrible together. And Casey safe this week? wth????????

I'm with you Kelly. My best guess would be Thia (just not very polished) and Paul.

I would bet that Stefano ends up on Broadway.

Well, your guesses are right. I think that Thia, Naima and Paul are the correct bottom three.

I enjoyed the "Solid as a Rock" duet between Jacob and Naima tonight. The four guys rocking "Bank on the Run" did well, it wasn't the best, but it was cute.

I think it's Naima and Paul tonight.

I didn't like them at all together. I don't understand why you think Casey shouldn't be safe though.
Thia has years to polish her act. She conceivably could come back again and take it all as good as she already is. Naimi was too "weird" for most people I think, but she has changed her life forever by getting to where she did and that is a good thing.

I have to agree with the decision tonight. Paul and Stefano aren't long for the show either IMO.

David, I just don't find Casey to be all that (and don't think he should have been saved last week but they need the "drama" for the show) and add in his health. I don't remember exactly what is wrong but stress triggers his condition therefore the trips to the hospital. He's been to the hospital what? I know 2 times maybe 3 since either hollywood or vegas.

Casey has a bleeding ulcer. Stress is definitely not something he needs.

I absolutely LOVED Lauren and Scotty singing "I Told You So." It was beautiful! It sounded like it could be a hit on the radio right now.

I found Lauren and Scotty's duet the best of the evening, but I thought Scotty tried to put just a few too many runs into the song and hindered the pure simplicity of the melody a tad.

I am okay with the results.

I totally agree. That started the evening off nicely.

Naima is definitely an artist and is versatile. I agree that Thia is just a baby with a huge voice.

Casey is, imo, an incredible artist(singer). Is he an "American Idol"? No, he is not what I consider an "American Idol". I'm not so sure that the music business, at least the "American Idol" way, wouldn't eat him up. I still think he should be in the competition though because there are several that are not as good as he is.

Listen. I'm not liking Haley more and more each week. Every song she growls. It is not necessary every song during the whole song. It bothers me when singers think growling makes them good.

#92 Postby **Stephanie** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 7:50 pm

"Natural Woman" has been song each year by a female hopeful. The best one was done by Kelly Clarkson. Lauren's version was understated but she made it her own.

I really like Jame Durbin's version of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". He uses his big voice very well in ballads and his ending big note wasn't out of place.

Again, Scotty's only 17? He did a great job with that Elvis tune! :lol:

#94 Postby **vbhoutex** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 8:44 pm

OMG, what a night!!! I have no clue who should leave after tonight. IMO, this year is by far the best ever in terms of talent. Michael, I think the growl is natural with Haley's singing. I don't think it is forced at all. JMHO. However, I do think she is in the bottom 3. Scotty kicked ass tonight, as did Jacob and Pia. My guess on bottom 3 is Paul, Haley, and Casey.

#95 Postby **wx247** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 10:24 pm

I agree. How do you choose the bottom three? Out on a limb here, but I think the bottom three will be Jacob, Paul, and Stefano. If I had choose to send someone home, I think it would be Jacob. Tonight's show was the best AI I have seen.

I just love Casey playing his upright bass and singing. Scotty does everything well and was terrific. James was good too...a different side of him. I wasn't crazy about Pia although she does have an amazing voice. I didn't care for Lauren. I love the "Janice Joplin" Haley voice. Jacob is just plain weird and a little cocky. I don't like him. Stephano was good but I think he's in trouble. There is something about Paul (probably his white teeth...lol) that I like but I think he's in trouble too.
Jacob, Stephano and Paul. I think Paul will probably go home.

I miss Simon. I just don't think these judges are critical enough. If you close your eyes and listen you can really hear some of the pitchy notes and "karoake" styles. Yes, I really miss Simon. I liked Steven at first but now his comments are just not constructive.

I don't miss Simon, but I have to agree that the judges seem to have lost sight of constructive criticism. Steven definitely has changed imo and isn't "doing his job".

How the hell is Pia in the bottom three?

It is times like this when I wish it was kind of like dancing with the stars. Have judges scores weighed in as well. Pre teen girls are very persistent and loyal and usually like the Bieber type artist; other style of artist don't stand a chance.

WTH are any of them doing in the bottom 3, especially Pia? I totally agree with you about the judging. Judges votes should be weighed in at least through till the top 5 imo. If the teeny weenies manage to screw this up again, I will have a hard time continuing to watch.

OK, they just announced Pia is going home. I am done!!!
