American Idol - Top 8 Boys




Let's bring it boys!

The Best:

Michael Lynche - Love it! He did a memorable and perfect performance. It was heartfelt. He is definitely in the lead of all the boys.

Casey James - I liked his guitar performance. I thought he was relaxed as he played and stayed in the moment. You could really hear the richness of his voice and I love his tone.

Lee Dewyze - Even though his performances are sounding alike to me, I liked it. I think he is talented but I think he is suffering from lack of personality. Not sure who he is.

Andrew Garcia - I liked his attempt at Genie in a Bottle. I thought it was better towards the end because he slowed it down. I didn't think it was an authentic performance since he basically said he was just trying to impress the judges. But I think its enough to keep him in.

The Okay:

Alex Lambert - I love the tone of his voice. He reminded me of the lead singer of Simply Red tonight. He is also getting more confident. He needs to work on his stage presence and continue to choose songs that fits his voice. May be hard for him once it gets to theme night.

The Bad:

Tim Urban - They made a mistake inviting him back. He just isn't good enough. His performance was definitely better tonight but he continues to be outshined by other better performers.

Todrick Hall - He needs to be on Broadway. He is a dance. He is theatre. He is not a radio or pop recording artist. He can sing..very well! But he choose bad songs and refuses to play the game to make it through each week. So alas, he will be going home.

Aaron Kelly - The baby of the group. 2 years ago there were 2 young people on stage but Aaron just doesn't have the maturity to be there. All his songs seem like they are being performed by a amateur. His voice is going to change anyway, so the performer he is now is not who he is going to be later.

So going home? Should be Tim and Aaron. Will probably be Tim and Rodrick. We shall see. Until tomorrow....c-ya!
