Bummer, I missed tonights show. I'm in Florida with my sister and lost complete track of time. So who went home?

MyFairLacy · 03-18-2009, 06:03 PM

It really should have been michael. I was disappinted in her performance last nght but she is better than some of them. I think they ought to get to sing a new song too. Obviously if the judges didn't like them the first time they prob won't again

What?!?!? Alexis went home. I can't believe that. If anything, I think Michael should've gone home. He's a very nice and likeable guy, but I think Alexis has a better voice than he does.

yep, that's what I said last week. How are they ever to wow the judges with a song they weren't wowed with the first time

She is as cute as a button isn't she but I think they wanted to see if she would go off in the same two spots that she did last night and she did again.

Ok....can you tell I like him. The range in his voice tonight was great.

Actually, they were all great tonight. Not one performance was terrible. They did a great job.

I have to agree with this post! I wanted to dislike Adam's version of this song but I was actually as someone put it enchanted by it!! Not that I like punk rock but I so wanted to dislike Adam's version but I think he was very true to himself and I liked it!
The others were good and I'm sorry to see Alexis go home. At this point it's gonna be hard to see any of them go. So talented...

So disappointed to see Alexis go home tonight

As much as I would have liked to have seen Michael go further in the competition....country week should have been his week to shine and he didn't and he should have went home. I honestly think they should have used the save on Alexis to give her the opportunity to do the AI tour. I think Simon is making them "save" the save for when Megan gets voted off....I can slmost guarantee if she is voted out that it will be used on her. i can't believe Allison was even in the bottom three tonight either. I know that someone has to go home every week....but I just think Alexis should have been able to stick around long enough to make the tour and I think it s ashame they didn't save her. How do they expect her to wow them with a song they were not already impressed with....complete craziness....but thats AI. LOL

I really doubt they are going to use the "save" until further in, when it's down to a few favorites. That's really what is silly about it.
I really was disappointed that she went home, I really liked her and thought she would last longer.

shirlblack · 03-19-2009, 05:25 AM

I was very sorry to see Alexis go home and I thought she would last longer. I also doubt they'll use the save until further along in the season. Next week is Motown so that should be a good one.

crystalsmom · 03-19-2009, 06:15 AM

Next week should be great with all those great songs to pick from but remember it's Wednesday and Thursday.

For your enjoyment

I have replayed Adam's performance and it does kind of grow on you. His vocal range is amazing. I am not a rock fan either. I just hope he will sing some songs a little more mellow like Cris Daughty did.

I was surprised that Alexis was sent home, I figured it would Michael.

Matt can really sing too but his personality does nothing for me. I wish he would shave. Silly I know but I just don't care for the scrubby beard look.

Danny is still my favorite.

Thank you, crystalsmom, for that youtube clip! It reminded me how much I LOVE Tamyra Gray and how sad I was that she didn't win. And was that cute little Christina Christianson on there? But I absolutely loved Tamyra's duet with Justin... and I'm far from being a Justin fan. Kelly Clarkson's good, but I had thought Tamyra deserved the win back then. I still love her now. I was never able to find her album way back, but I am now reminded to shop for it tonight! As for most of the other performers... I've never seen them before in my life. I must have missed out more seasons than I thought after my favourites keep getting dropped before I feel they deserved to be.

Unless, of course, they weren't previous AI contestants, then that would explain it.

I too LOVED Tamyra Gray and she went on to have a wonderful career as well. At the time I thought she should have won but they both were great.. I think that is C.C.

Glad you enjoyed the clip and next week should be fun.

Miao · 03-20-2009, 03:35 AM

Does anyone know whatever happened to Allison's recording contract she won in 2006 (along with a cash prize of US$50k) after entering a Spanish televised version of AI? She must be out of contract now in order to compete in this show, right? But does that mean she has a CD/album out? In Spanish? In English? Okay, getting so late now, I was hoping someone would know so I wouldn't have to try to research it online myself since I ought to be asleep already.

Good night all!

Lou · 03-20-2009, 05:53 AM

That is very interesting about Allison. I had no idea!
