First of all... it's never been about singing; it's always been about performance (though I'm still at a lost how Kris Allen won).<br /><br />And you always look at only the last performance, or at least put a tremendous amount of weight on it. I always look at the body of work. The recent performances give an indication of how they are improving... and Abrams has struggled there. But he had an outstanding Joe Cocker song 3 weeks ago and some outstanding singing in the Hollywood auditions. <br /><br />If Durbin, Pia, or McCreedy have a lousy week this week, do you think they would deserve to be voted off?<br /><br />I don't think Abrams can win it, but he was a worthy save. Particularly since it guarantees he goes on tour... and he will entertain people.<br /><br />I'm far more concerned about Paul McDonald hanging around each week, than I am Casey Abrams. Other than one great Beatles song in Hollywood, I haven't heard anything from McDonald I've enjoyed.OrangeRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12912205225204221759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549291608505286179.post-11679305069361495142011-03-29T08:57:27.629-07:002011-03-29T08:57:27.629-07:00Ray....so....we finally disagree big time! I think...Ray....so....we finally disagree big time! I think it was a WASTED SAVE on Abrams. He was clearly 'Bottom 3' on Motown night, with Stefano and I thought eithey Haley or Thia. IMHO....Abrams should NOT have been saved. This is a singing competition, and that means more than just being an entertainer. This save will come back to haunt the judges, as we all know American can be very stupid! <br />Think for the ladies it's between PIA and Lauren....and when you cut it to those two, it's clearly PIA's to lose....and for the guys, it's Scotty and James, and that should be a dogfight. I still think, like I have since Hollywood Week, that PIA is head over heels above anyone else in this competition, it's her Idol Season 10 Title to lose!Eddie Idolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05916957156121678208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549291608505286179.post-18628302455319429292011-03-29T05:24:20.568-07:002011-03-29T05:24:20.568-07:00America is starting to scare me with their voting;...America is starting to scare me with their voting; not only did I knot get any of the bottom three correct, I didn't even have the bottom four. <br /><br />Stefano and Thia were not that shocking, but Casey Abrams was... particularly when he was voted off. I don't think Abrams is going to win it all, and his past couple of weeks has been a divergence of what made him so popular in the early going, but I figured his fan base was strong enough. I guess not.<br /><br />At least the judges used the save wisely this year (unlike last year when I though they wasted it... I cannot remember who, but I remember feeling it was wasted at the time). And nice move by AI to expand the summer tour to 11.<br /><br />BTW... I don't know if I've ever seen a contestant so visibly shaken before. I thought Abrams was going to end up in the hospital again, he was shaking so hard.OrangeRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12912205225204221759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549291608505286179.post-79333963697914122512011-03-24T12:16:38.405-07:002011-03-24T12:16:38.405-07:00I don't think the standings for the year chang...I don't think the standings for the year changed much with last night's show. The favorites remain at the top, and the those at the bottom are staying there. I think Naima did manage to save herself for the week, but she has a very good chance to still be in the bottom 3. <br /><br />I really think Paul is overrated, and he should be in the bottom 3 (I thought so last week too), but he's got his fans and the judges keep endorsing him. <br /><br />I think Lauren makes the bottom three if either Paul or Naima don't. <br /><br />None of them have to worry however, because I think Haley will be going home this week. She's got that great look and sexy growl, but she doesn't use it very often, and after being in the bottom 3 the past two weeks, I didn't see anything last night that would push her up higher.OrangeRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12912205225204221759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7549291608505286179.post-66852803549926097582011-03-24T12:06:16.523-07:002011-03-24T12:06:16.523-07:00Right on as usual Eddie Idol!!

She certainly isn't boring:) I'm getting bored with Thia, Lauren, Pia, Stefano and Paul...They all can go home as far as I'm concerned and I wouldn't miss them;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17402339905581126313noreply@blogger.com
