[Cactus Jack]

OMG BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PERFECT FOR HIM!

[EmoJoe]

According to IDF, Carrie is singing "Love Is a Battlefield", and Constantine is singing "Bohemian Rhapsody".
That sounds pretty good...and I know Love is a Battlefield (the song). I hope she does well with it.

[Cactus Jack]

Ditto, I hope Constantine does well with Bohemian Rhapsody too.

I hope they all do good with their song choices! Scott will probably do Rubberband Man LOL

[David]

1. Nadia Turner - When I Dream

She's wearing a really short red dress. It's a pretty boring song honestly. She's delivering it well, but it will probably be forgettable by the end of the show.

Randy - I don't remember that song, it was just an okay performance, didn't love it.
Paula - You look outrageously stunning, not crazy about the song choice
Simon - Equivalent of musical wallpaper :lol: You notice it, but you don't remember it. You can go home after that. Bad choice.

Ouch.

[Cactus Jack]

Nadia- Not that good tonight, probably my least fav from her

[vienna waits]

so its birth year?

[David]

2. Bo - Free Bird

Starts off slow, gets interactive with the audience, but it's still good. The ending is better. Paula is clapping to death for him again :lol:

Randy - Perfect song, you can have a hit with it
Paula - You hit the finals (or something like that)
Simon - Some people will think "what the hell was that", but ... eh, i didn't comprehend all that he said :lol:

[David]

3. Anwar Robinson - I'll Never Love This Way Again (AHHH JASMINE'S SONG <3!!!)

LMAO he even has the same background that Jasmine had last year (the red thing). `kay. I'm a big Anwar fan, but the past few weeks have been "eh"ish.

The beginning is a little shaky. Overall, he does a good job, he sounds good, but it would've been nicer for him to go higher and longer with some of the notes. It's good but, my biased little self liked Jasmine's version 2426x better.

Randy - technically the best singer
Paula - consistently great
Simon - one of your better performances in a while

[David]

so its birth year?
:nod:

[Cactus Jack]

Bo was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anwar was pretty good too

[David]

Nadia- Not that good tonight, probably my least fav from her
Yeah, it was completely forgettable, and going first isn't gonna help her one bit. But uh then again, Scott had the same problem last week, and look what happened.

[Cactus Jack]

3. Anwar Robinson - I'll Never Love This Way Again (AHHH JASMINE'S SONG <3!!!)

LMAO he even has the same background that Jasmine had last year LOL yeah! When did Jasmine sing it? Was it Barry week?

[David]

4. Anthony Fedorov - Everytime You Go Away

LMAO his clip "when i was around him, i always felt cool". Iono why but it made me alugh. ANYWAY.

He's starting off sitting down on the side. Very close camera shot of him. Um.. it's pretty good in the beginning. I don't really like the song, it's kind of corny, but he's sounding better than he has in the last 4 weeks, which doesn't say too much -- but i think he did a really really good job, finally.

Randy - You did your thing, I was surprised
Paula - Good job
Simon - Last week, it was a lowpoint for you, but this week you were very good.

[David]

LOL yeah! When did Jasmine sing it? Was it Barry week?
Yup :D One of the best nights of AI ever. Aw, I miss last year.

[David]

Alrite, Scott and Vonzell after the break.

That means either Constantine or Carrie is last.

[vienna waits]

CARRIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. she deserves it.

[David]

5. Vonzell Solomon - Let's Hear It For The Boy (Carmen sang this on tour)

Vonzell looks great. She sounds really great in the beginning, and she is going on the platform again. She's consistent during the song, and does a really good job overall. One of the best so far tonight.

Randy - Another great performance. Excellent man.
Paula - You are such a bright light. You're adorable up there.
Simon - Very good choice of song, I thought you would've gone about 3 weeks ago, but now I think Nadia is gonna go, because you need give a reason for people to vote for you.

[vienna waits]

awww i love that song.

[EmoJoe]

WHY DOES PAULA LOVE SCOTT SO MUCH?

[David]

6. Scott Savol - She's Gone

"I'm the real rocker" ...... :lol:. Wow. his film clip made me laugh.

He starts off eh-ish, but the chorus, I hate to say this, was really really good. Ah damn, he's really impressing me towards the end of the song. Bleh. He's safe. He's still my least favorite though. Oh yeah, and he gets a standing-O from Paula.

Randy - You started a little rough (like I said!!), but you did well towards the end.
Paula - I gotta give it up to you, but you did awesome.
Simon - There were more (bum?) notes than good notes.

Yeah, and Scott talks back to him. Bad move.

[EmoJoe]

Carrie isnt last..oh well. At least shes next to last.

[vienna waits]

I wonder if Scott is this year's Josh Gracin.

[David]

Carrie's next, so I guess Con. is going last.

[vienna waits]

damnit to all hell. so close.

[EmoJoe]

Anyway my ratings so far

Nadia- 3/10: Wow...that was horrible. She'll probably go
Bo- 8/10: Pretty good
Anwar- 7/10: Not bad
Anthony- 8/10: DEFINTILEY an improvment from the past few weeks
Vonzell- 9/10: That was..wow
Scott- 6/10: It wasnt horrible, but i still hate him

[David]

*hopes Carrie does AMAZING*

[EmoJoe]

Carries up...i hope she does awesome

[EmoJoe]

Carrie looks like Avril laveigne :lol:

[vienna waits]

*refreshes page*

[vienna waits]

she must be getting some long comments

[EmoJoe]

I thought she was good o_O Whatever...what is with Simon hating Carrie and Bo now?

[vienna waits]

omgaw they hated it?

[David]

7. Carrie Underwood - Love Is a Battlefield

OMG she looks great! ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. She gets on the platform!!! The lights are amazing, and it's a really haunting preformance. She rocked it out!!

Randy - There were some pitchy notes, you missed some of the words, but it was still aiight.
Paula - I think you rock, you rocked it out (Carrie responds with something about the "B word".. hmm)
Simon - You needed to do it, but it was like watching a kitten who wanted to be a tiger.

[EmoJoe]

omgaw they hated it?
Well Paula liked it...Randy thought it was alright..but Simon said she was like a kitten who wanted to be a tiger. He really needs to learn some new insults. :lol:

[David]

omgaw they hated it?

Not really. It wasn't a harsh comment. It was another analogy :lol: It was a really hot performance though.

[vienna waits]

aww she missed some words?

[vienna waits]

Not really. It wasn't a harsh comment. It was another analogy :lol: It was a really hot performance though.
sweeeeet. did she move around?

[EmoJoe]

Not really. It wasn't a harsh comment. It was another analogy :lol: It was a really hot performance though.
Yeah I agree.

[EmoJoe]

Number Rating: 10/10- I thought she was amazing.
Letter Rating: A+

[David]

Yeah on the platform, and a little on stage.

[David]

[EmoJoe]

i didn't really notice :lol: but carrie said "yeah, but i covered up!!" :lol:

[EmoJoe]

Constentine

9/10- That was...wow
Letter Grade: A

[David]

8. Constantine Maroulis - Bohemian Rhapsody

He's doing a really godo job. Again. Wow, he's been impressing me lately. Definitely the best performance of the night.

Randy - Yo man, Constantine, showmanship 10/10, singing 7/10
Paula - Awesome (still standing), you're the one to beat in this competition
Simon - That was astonishing.

1866IDOLS07
and 1866IDOLS05 for me tonight!!

[David]

I didnt notice either. I thought she was great :lol: I think the judges are just upset she didn't do country
Yeah, it was a bit over the top, but it was nice to see her crack out of her shell.

[David]

The bottom 3 will probably be ... Nadia, uhh.. Bo?, Anthony or Scott? Eh, I have no idea!

[eltonfan80]

WHY DOES PAULA LOVE SCOTT SO MUCH?
i agree maroon5'd i think paula gone crazy on us :rolleyes:

[David]

i agree maroon5'd i think paula gone crazy on us :rolleyes:

lol what is up with that woman this season? :lol:

[¤I Love Clay Aiken¤]

My favs: Constantine, Bo, and Anthony.

I still dont like Carrie, but I looooooved her hair tonight. Scott shouldnt talk back. And did you notice that when Simon was all 'youre a nice guy and all...' the audience went quiet? :rofl: Baby V was good! <3 Anwar needs to button up his shirt and not be.. boring.

Hall & Oats :rofl:

[Cactus Jack]

Here's my thought

Anthony- Great!!!!

Vonzell : Awesome!!

Scott : One of his best :D


Carrie and Constatine-BOTH TOTALLY FREAKIN' AWESOME

[David]

eh, i don't know who the bottom 3 will be this week.

[Krisalicious]

My ranking for tonight:

1. Constantine: HOLY **** SON. As soon as I saw his song title come up on the screen I was like ohhhh this is such a good song, but can he pull it off? Geeeeeeeeez. That was AMAZING. I just... aahhhhhhh... I can't even begin to put into words how good I thought it was haha. I'd give it like a 837534843758743987543/10. I LOOOVE HIM. This is definitely without a doubt my favorite performance of the season so far.

2. Vonzell: She was amazing too! She picked the perfect song for her and aaahh I love her! She's just so happy and fun and aaahhh. I'm voting for her and Constantine tonight.

3. Anthony: He's been sucky lately, but he reaaaally improved this week. I mean I don't really like that song, but he sounded great tonight. And thank God.

4. Anwar: Ah when Jasmine performed this last year, it was one of my favorite performances, but he was good. Not great or anything, but good...

5. Bo: Mmmm it was a good choice of song and all but I dunno, definitely not one of his best....:-/

6. Carrie: Alright that was a little too over the top for me. She screamed a lot of those notes. On another note, I LOVED her hair tonight :lol: verrryy nice straight and with the black at the tips. She needs to do that more often lol.

7. Nadia: Odd song...and I dunno I just didn't think it was that great.

8. Scott: Mmmm Simon was so so so so totally right. I have no idea how Randy and Paula liked that. I could barely sit through it... sorry.

My predictions for bottom 3:
Scott
Nadia
Anwar

[G-Force Glockstar]

Carrie's lines are so busy :(

I only got in one vote so far. I think I'll wait another 15 minutes.

[vienna waits]

I figured out what Carrie said to Paula...

"i was just trying to get rid of my b word.. you know.. BORING"

carrie never looked so hot as she did tonight. meangya im gonna faint :faint: she needs to wear her hair down more often.

[David]

Carrie's lines are so busy :(

I only got in one vote so far. I think I'll wait another 15 minutes.

I was trying to vote all night, and to this minute, it's still busy, so I only got in 16 votes.

Oh yeah, and 4 for Vonzell, 1 for Constantine.

[David]

I figured out what Carrie said to Paula...

"i was just trying to get rid of my b word.. you know.. BORING"

carrie never looked so hot as she did tonight. meangya im gonna faint :faint: she needs to wear her hair down more often.

yeah, i looked over that.

and OMG when she came out, i was like :eek: she's never looked so great before. there's always that week where a female contestant suddenly picks the right hairstyle and look, and looks FABULOUS, and this was that week for her. she was stunning.

[Miss Golden]

Worst - Nadia

7. Scott
6. Bo
5. Anthony
4. Carrie
3. Anwar
2. Vonzell

Best - Constantine

However, the Bottom 3 will be:

Nadia - OUT
Scott
Anwar or Anthony

Nadia goes home.

Bo and Carrie have too much of a fan base to be in the bottom 3 this early.

[Pus$y Galore]

i agree maroon5'd i think paula gone crazy on us :rolleyes:


Or maybe she's afraid he'll throw a phone at her if she criticizes him!! :lol:

[Karen*]

You guys are already VOTING? Damn, Pacific time goes by so slow! :mad:

[I Love John Ritter]

Carrie looks like Avril laveigne :lol:
She looked like Hilary Duff tonight.

[Brian]

Carrie's lines are so busy :(

I only got in one vote so far. I think I'll wait another 15 minutes.



But that's good. As long as the line is busy, that is a good sign.

Carrie is my favorite but as much as I liked her performance, Constantine was the best tonight. He has really grown in this competition.

[Miss Golden]

Even though Nadia's performance was the worst and she has been hanging on by a thread since the start, I think the fans will dump Scott Savol especially after that stupid comment at the end of his performance.

[Vegas Girl]

I think Nadia or Scott will leave tonight.

[EmoJoe]

I only got in 5 votes for Carrie :(

[EmoJoe]

I think Nadia or Scott will leave tonight.
Me too, probably Nadia

[David]

Even though Nadia's performance was the worst and she has been hanging on by a thread since the start, I think the fans will dump Scott Savol especially after that stupid comment at the end of his performance.

Yeah and that ridiculous film clip -- "i'm the true rocker".

Oh yeah, I should also mention that I rewatched last night, and Bo along with Scott weren't as great as I remembered them. Bo's was very uneventful and forgettable, and Scott was just okay, I think the only thing good about it was the chorus, which he did really well in, but the verses were horrible.

[EmoJoe]

I agree, Constentine and Carrie were the best last night IMO and Scott and Nadia were the worst.

That was just dumb :rofl:

Was THAT stupid or what?!!! I couldn't believe what was coming out of his mouth!! What - now that's he's seen Constantine's and Bo's popularity he's all of a sudden this major "rocker"? Gimme a break!!! :lol:
That was the first I've heard anything about rock and Scott. The guy's a .......well, this is a PG-13 board so I can't really say what he is without getting banned, but you get the idea!
If he doesn't go this week (and he probably won't with what the judges said about him), I'm coming down there, stripping naked, getting into the balcony with a high-powered rifle and picking him and the other Scott idiot from The Apprentice off myself!!!

[vienna waits]

he was joking about the rocker thing. he was talking about when he was TWO.

[G-Force Glockstar]

But that's good. As long as the line is busy, that is a good sign.

Carrie is my favorite but as much as I liked her performance, Constantine was the best tonight. He has really grown in this competition.

Yeah, it is good....I just get annoyed when I'm trying to vote and the line is busy :lol:

[starshallow]

I liked Carries performance best lol. Maybe I am just being biased cause I am a big fan.. but Constantine just doesnt do it for me ya know? I really want to like him though, I just cant for some reason.


ash*

[Hollow]

i liked carrie's performance too. she sounded great and finally had stage presence.

[Hollow]

Carrie's lines are so busy :(

I only got in one vote so far. I think I'll wait another 15 minutes.
i just carry my cell phone around with me the whole two hours and keep redialing.

[David]

ash*

Yeah, Constantine is good and all, and he's proven that, but for some odd reason I'm not too excited about him. But like you, I want to be.

[G-Force Glockstar]

Four days til Tuesday! :D

I don't want this weekend to go fast, but I want Monday to go fast.
