I haven't watched Monday or Tuesdays performances yet but I did hear Carrie last night and don't think that was a very good song for her.

I had to disagree with all three judges on the farm girl's performance last night. I think they're trying to shoe horn her and when she broke from that mold they didn't get it.
I mean, if Johnny Cash can win a Grammy for a Nine Inch Nails song, she can go up on stage and do Janis. Maybe it's just me but I enjoy covers that sound nothing like the original.

Well I've seen both performances, and all I have to say is that the girls are lucky that they are in a separate group or there would be 4 of them going home tonight.

What i thought was funny is they were critisizing her for not doing a country song, yet the version she did is the country re-do by Faith Hill....nearly exactly. Either they had no idea that Faith did a cover of the song, or they just didn't like the perforance.

I wonder if the judges are seeing something different than we are. Or if they have different expectations for different contestants. I did not see any "Great" performances. Most were good and several that were just OK. Yet the judges seemed to give praise and criticize somewhat disproportionately. Personally I did not get what it was they liked so much about Jessica's performance or why they all seemed to really dislike what Carrie did.
I guess it is a good thing that it is not up to the judges. I would be surprised if Janay made it through to next week. But are several IMO that are riding the fence after last nights performance.

yeah - I always thought of Janis as having a slight country twang to her voice anyway. I mean - Me and Bobby McGee???

None of the girls blew me away last week. There was no performance that really stood out. I was looking for great things from Nadia and Carrie, and ... eh.
The one that surprised me most this week was Mikalah. I liked her voice with the song she picked. Crystal

Oh and for the girls, Selena and Lindsey will probably go home, but could be replaced by either Janay or Amanda.
I kinda hope Janay stays. She has an interesting voice - she just needs to get over the nerves. She looked terrified last night! Crystal

It's kind of funny, I don't listen to any of the music that they sing on this show. I'm more a hard core and indie rock fan. For some reason I love this show though. I think it's that I like seeing young people off the street come out and work their way through. Even though it's the same type of music, I count almost all the contestants as being much better than the Brittany Spears and NSYNCs of the world. Well that and Simon is hilarious when he's mean.

The judges really make no sense to me. They say the songs are safe and then when they try something different they get chastised for it.

I don't know if it is safe for me to watch this year or not. I mean all the racial crap after the one Black girl (who got hosed) got knocked out with like five less talented people still there. Then they give it to someone who sounded like she should be doing cartoon voice overs instead of singing. I think 2 or 3 of the last 5 got contracts besides her. I felt like throwing something at the TV.

Racial? ... but... the person who won was also African-American. How is that racial????
I think the show does a great job of mixing a diverse group of people (as diverse as you can get for pop singers anyway  ).Crystal

I am not saying it was anything racial done by the show, it was some of the people who follow it and some political groups. I don't remember the girl's name, Janet maybe? She was booted and people started whining it was because she was the best singer and she was black. It was a joke because there were 2 blacks still in the competition at that point. I just don't want to get hooked again and have to listen to a bunch of crap if the final ends up all male or all white or something.
Also got to say you got one of the coolest avitars on the board. Been meaning to mention that before. Better late in an edit than never

Well it was pretty much what I thought it was gonna be tonight... Tears, and more tears... I really don't like the way that they dismiss these people from the show, could be done with a little bit more " niceness" if that makes any sense
 ... My farm girl stayed, and Selena and Aloha went home... Joe and David also left tonight... I am lost with this show the last week or so, it seems sooo different from last year... but I'll watch it til the end... TheBimbo

 The Nanny has got to go! I also can't believe the young girl (sorry can't remember her name) is still there. I thought she looked terrified the other night. I really only like Carrie of the women. Like most of the guys left. Tough season.

Well, the guys didn't surprise me at all, but I was surprised that Aloha went home before a couple of the others... especially Lindsey. She is just bland.
Thanks, grim. I need to update the avatar... I have some better pics now. Crystal

No big surprises last night. I did think Janay (nervous girl) got a reprieve. But I don't see her lasting much longer unless she picks it up.
Unless things turn around in the next week, I think that early rounds of the combined group is going to be bad news for the girls.
