Moving on into the new Age!!!!

First up of course is American Idol Again as yesterday is another American Idol week.
David Archuleta -When You Believe
He did a great version of the song. in fact it's the best performance of the night and set the standard for the night. It's a Big song and there's so many note change in David's performance you dun even know which note you are going to comment on. but every note change is perfectly executed. I thought Simon would say that his version for Leon Jackson is better but David's version is perfect or maybe even better.
Carly Smithson - Without You Did
really didn't make it. because by the end of Syesha's performnce I've already forgotten hers. I mean it's not bad. It's almost as good as Mariah's but it's not really unforgetable.
Syeshe Mercado -Vanishing
chosen a song that not so many people have heard. and she makes it sound like she made it hers. so it's good. but as Simon says David and Carly have chosen well known songs and did it and Syeshe will get through the week if the votes pour in but not gonna beat David Archuleta on this one.
Brooke White - Heroes
Nerve, Shaky, The Wongsriter touch is good but even playing piano herself she sounds like she's chasing her own beat.
Cristy Lee Cook - Forever
Chosen the song that's not suit her. this time she's gonna go into the bottom 3, Although her touch on the country version is still good but in comparison with Mariah it's just as iff every high note is just not there yet.
David Cook -You'll always be my baby
David Cook Took the most girlish Mariah has....... Oh my God, But He pull it off it started abit rough, because you can't exactly pool away from the original when you are singing it slowly as the original. but it pickes up half way and jump into David's usual Rockers mode and that version of it is perfect. if only he can make some arrangement from the start. one side line of the performance is his tears at the end of the judges comment. I thought it's because he's not performing well for the past 2 weeks and performing well enough this week and got good comments from judges, but in actual fact it's because his brother who is battling brain cancer is in the audience and sitting right behind Simon. (confirmed by E! News)
Jason Castro - I Wanna Cry
Jason Castro Closes the show like his usual self, relax and laid back. I always thought that his mode is too laid back to be a commercial artist of course the Producer just Jackson and Simon is not really that into it. but judging by the way the audiences and viewrs responces he might really be the black horse to go to the final 3 now. still Syesha is a force to be recon with.

So I beleive the Ranking this week is almost a reverse from last week. This could be the most accurate top 7 ranking for me actually. I do hope that David Cook is going to be up there in the top 2 but this weeks is just half good half bad.
1. David Archuleta (Perfection)
2. Syesha Mercado (Perfection, if not compared too much to the teary version of Fantasia's)
3. David Cook (Just Make it at the second half of the song)
4. Jason Castro
5. Carly Smithson
6. Brooke White
7. Kristy Lee Cook



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~updated on time (Spoiler Ahead)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~















and the result is.......................................... and It becomes 6............. The race is heating up


Kristy Lee Cook is out

What's strange is that Syesha is still in the bottom 3. I guess the audience just could see another Whitney. Her voice is great these couple of weeks. I guess if the steam is not heating up by next week. Syesha and Brooke white is goner too. I think coming closer and closer to the end of the season the race is pretty much closer and in the end the deal breaker is judges comments. bcause it seems the few super delegates of the show is voting according to what the judges saying.
