Top 8 & 8 Results Show

Blake Lewis was not great. I like the new goodbye song (I think it's by him?) but that performance was boring. It was a lame attempt at being cool and hip but just felt weak to me.

On to the results: I think America got it right.

Luke Maynard was just too sappy to take.

Kady will be on MadTv or SNL doing impersonations. She has a great personality, it just didn't come through when she was singing. She should have just went for broke and sung her goodbye song in a Britney Spears voice!

Asia'h was a one hit wonder. Her audition was heart breaking but then she tried to sing power ballads that didn't fit her voice and it exposed her weakness. She should have stuck with Anita Baker-ish songs. Sung everything in her lower register.

Daniel Noreiga. It was sad to see him go and I think he can sing. But he had too much personality and it got in the way of the singing. I would have liked to have seen more of him over David Cook. I think Chickezie deserved to say because his performances were solid.

So off we go to the Top 12. Bigger stage, better song selection, the image machine starts cranking. Too me, this is the best part of the show. I think they have a strong group this year. I think the boys are gonna take it! Until next week....c-ya!
