I don’t have time to do my full write-up tonight, so I’ll just write the abridged version and update you with all the scoop tomorrow.
Mandisa was great, singing “I Don’t Hurt Anymore”.
Bucky’s “Oh Boy” was alright, but not fabulous.
Paris Bennett is a great singer, and she did a great job with “Fever”.
Don’t hate me, but I thought Chris Daughtry’s “I Walk the Line” was a bit boring. More on that tomorrow.
Katharine McPhee won the “were the judges watching the same show I was watching?” award tonight. I like Katharine a lot, but I thought tonight was one of her worst performances.
I love Taylor Hicks. You all know that. I thought tonight was a great performance but not a great song choice.
Lisa Tucker sang “Why Do Fools Fall in Love”, which should have been a great song for her, but it was a bit high school talent show for me. I mean, don’t get me wrong— she would have won the talent show by a mile, but I didn’t think it was fabulous.
Kevin Covais. Well, we’ll just have to discuss this tomorrow. For now, I’ll just say he sang “When I Fall in Love”, and his ex-girlfriend must be so glad to know he’s never had a true love before. Are we being played by “sweet” Kevin?
Elliott did a great job with “Teach Me Tonight.”
It was back to country music for Kellie Pickler, singing, “Walking After Midnight”, and thank goodness for that after last week.
The closing number was “In the Still of the Night” by Ace Young. It was alright— definitely better than last week.
So, who will be the bottom three this week?
My ideal bottom three: Bucky, Lisa, and Kevin.
My predicted bottom three: Bucky, Lisa, and Katharine.
I think Lisa may go home, although I think it probably should be Bucky (well, you all know I think it should be Kevin, but I don’t think that’s going to happen).
