david foster is sort of being a jerk

Katharine McPhee

"I Have Nothing"- Whitney Houston

she chose such an overdone song!

she's doing alright, but not the best. i've heard better versions of it. bad song choice. but it gets better as it goes on. 8/10

Randy: Good song choice, but the song was too big for you. It didn't come close to the original.
Paula: Something about the pack pocket, I think she was
Simon: If you're going to sing a song like that, sing it good (or something like that)

EmoJoe

Eliott Yamin

"A Song For You"

he's doing pretty well, it gets a little boring after a while but overall, good. 8.5/10

Randy: Confusing arrangement, good vocal, you got it , you were "da bomb" tonight.
Paula: You moved me *in tears*
Simon: That was superb.

EmoJoe
04-25-2006, 08:32 PM
Kellie Pickler

"Unchained Melody"

she did well. 8.9/10

Randy: Some pitch problems but the high note was good. Very strange, not the right song.
Paula: Your not raising the bar each week
Simon: eh he just insulted her... a lot

David
04-25-2006, 08:34 PM
Katharine's wasn't as bad as the judges made it out to be, I think. It wasn't the best song choice, but she did well with it.
8.5/10

Elliott's was amazing. -- 9.5/10

Kellie's was not that great, I agree with the judges. 6.8/10 :(

Has anyone noticed that Top 6 night almost every season turns out not to be good at all? (Well except for Season 1)

EmoJoe
04-25-2006, 08:40 PM
Paris Bennett

"The Way We Were"

she did pretty well. 9/10

Randy: Pretty good.
Paula: Good job, but you oversang a little bit
Simon: Too-old fashioned, good vocal.

"Just Once"

Elliott was amazing!! OMG! So glad to finally see him get the credit he deserves. I LOL'd pretty hard at Paula though. I hope he lasts another week.

Kellie... wow. That high note :eek:! Maybe Im being biased [ok, I am], but Clay sang that 100x better than Kellie. Wow.

LOL unlike Joe I AM a Taylor fan and I HATED it! Ungh. But hes safe so whatever.

Chris is a bit overrated for me and its sooooo obvious that the producers ar pushing for him to win.

Katharine wasnt as bad as they thought [though I cant stand her], but she does oversing too much.

Lurker
04-25-2006, 10:33 PM
What were the judges listening too?

Katherine was awesome.

I like Taylor, but this was his worst performance so far. But he will be safe.

Chris was really good.

Actually they were all good except for Kellie and Paris. I hope it is Paris that gets the ax, but it will most likely be kellie. She has the look of someone who has given up.

My ranking tonight:

1. Chris
2. Elliott
3. Paris
4. Katharine
5. Taylor
6. Kellie

I really did try hard to like Kellie's performance tonight, because it's one of my favorite love songs of ALL time...but it was just so BORING!! She didn't do anything interesting at all with the song except maybe the high note. She should go tomorrow, but she won't. It will probably be Paris or sadly, Elliott.

Kelli needs to go, I think her time is up and has been up for a long time.

People did really well for the most part. :thumbsup:

1. KATHARINE - It wasn't that bad, but I do agree that some parts were a bit pitchy AND the performance looked and sounded like it came straight out of the karaoke lounge. It was good though. 7.7/10.

2. ELLIOTT - The BEST of the night!! I was really looking forward to hearing him sing this song cuz he sounded really good when he sang it at his audition...but tonight wasn't good, it was AMAZING. I never heard him evoke so much emotion into a performance! I even was close to tears myself, just like Paula. :o :lol: But seriously...it was the best tonight and his personal best as well. 9.7/10.

3. KELLIE - Better than last week's disaster, but still not good enough to take over anyone else. It was an average vocal and a boring performance. She's slipping. 6.6/10.

4. PARIS - It was an on and off performance, but overall, I really didn't like it. The song was too old for her, IMO. 6.9/10.

5. TAYLOR - I didn't think it was bad at all. The vocal was almost perfect and effortless...just a couple of bumps here and there. I can understand the karaoke comments though...My dad sings that song on karaoke A LOT and even though my dad isn't that great of a singer, he and Taylor sure almost match up to each other on that one! :lol: 8.5/10.

6. CHRIS - It was reaaaaallllly great!! For real, whoever says that he can't sing anything but rock has been proven wrong once again. Well...I guess his song could be considered as SOFT rock, but still...:lol: He showed versatility, range, emotion, the entire package. It was awesome. And seductive too. :drool: That's just a bonus though. ;) Really...I loved it. 9/10.

MY RANKINGS
1. Elliott
2. Chris
3. Taylor
4. Katharine
5. Paris
6. Kellie

I think the girls will be in the bottom three tomorrow, with Paris leaving as the expected or Kellie as the shocker. Hey, remember what happened last season during top 6 week? Anything could happen.

Aaaaannnndd I know the Elliott fans here are going to hate me, especially after praising him as the best performer tonight, but I'm only voting for him for about fifteen minutes tonight. I'll be crushed if he leaves this week, but not as crushed as I will if CHRIS is not safe again. Seriously, if that happens again, I will POP. ohno:

Katharine - I agree with what most of the judges said. I didn't really like the performance at all. Those high notes were not good.

Elliott - Wow, he was by far, THE BEST TONIGHT!! :D I LOVED his performance!! Even Simon said it was superb! He did awesome! He better not be in the bottom 3...being in the bottom with a performance like that is really unjust.

Kellie - She butchered one of my favorite songs. She was off pitch and was the worst of the night. I didn't like that high note, either. She really needs to go already.

Paris - I thought she did a very nice job. Great performance.

Taylor - I am a Taylor fan, but I didn't really like his performance all that much tonight. It was ok, but we've seen much better from him.

Chris - Wow, he really impressed me tonight (again). This is probably my favorite performance from him! I like it when he sings something other than rock...he does such a nice job :) There was a little of a rockish twist in there though, but I liked it.

Overall, I think the top 3 tonight were Elliott, Chris and Paris. The bottom 3, IMO were Kellie, Katharine and Taylor. I think for sure that Kellie and Paris will be in the bottom, but I'm not sure who the other person will be. I'm guessing Katharine, maybe. Sadly, I think Paris will be leaving because her fan base isn't as large as some of the others. It's really sad because she has a lot of talent.

I thought everything about Katharine's performance was amazing, and have no clue what the judges were talking about. Kellie's performance was beyond awful. I couldn't believe how bad it was. Right before Simon said it, I thought to myself that Paula should be crying at that, because of how bad it was.

I thought the judges were far too harsh on Katherine. Elliot did wonderful, as did Paris! I really enjoyed Chris' version of the Bryan Adams song! :)

I don't believe in dialidol anymore. I believe in zabasearch.com why? because it has been right since the first time I saw it. Check out the site to see this weeks. But the final total will be in a couple of hours on the site.

I have my ideas who might be in the bottom 3 but two people I thought would be in the bottom are still the same.

04-26-2006, 01:03 PM
I dont know which to believe dialidol.com or zabasearch they are like totally different

I would rather believe zaba because I love Kellie and Katherine and I hate Chris and Paris and Taylor.

EmoJoe
04-26-2006, 02:46 PM
dialidol is probably going to be wrong tonight because of the 2 phone lines thing

missjohnR
04-26-2006, 03:18 PM
I beleive zaba too. I heard over at idol boards that dialidol only adds up one phone line. So that would mean they didn't or don't add the second lines for each contestant. I would only go by zabasearch.com

update: Elliott and Chris are tied with 14% with Taylor only 1% behind.

EmoJoe
04-26-2006, 04:09 PM
that zabasearch has a chris, taylor, and paris bottom 3.

sorry, but i do NOT see that happening.

Dang, what was David Foster's problem??? Is he always a jerk like that?

Anyway, I really loved last night......really, they all did awesome, IMO......but Elliott was my least favorite and I personally think he should go tonight if anyone. But I REALLY don't want any of them to go!! After him, I want Paris to leave......then no one! lol I really don't know who should win now!

you don't have to worry anymore about Chris. It looks now that Elliott, Taylor and Paris in the bottom 3.

If Taylor ends up in the bottom three then there is something seriously wrong with the results!! I don't see Taylor ending up in the bottom three. Although I certainly didn't think that Chris would be in the bottom three last week. I guess anything can happen!

04-26-2006, 05:39 PM
Eh, I don't hate you :lol: Chris did well tonight too. I voted the full 2 hours for Elliott :D He better not be in the bottom!!

I totally agree. He should not be in the bottom three after a performance like that - He was TOO amazing last night. Glad that you're a fan and I hope the rest of America knows to keep him in too. :D

So, I rewatched, and...

1. Elliott Yamin -- Chris's was probably more authentic, but I just was so emotionally moved by his performance, therefore he gets the top spot.
2. Chris Daughtry -- His best performance in weeks. I really really enjoyed it. It wasn't too indulgent, and it wasn't out of sync with what he usually does, yet it was something different.
3. Katharine McPhee -- See I knew the judges were smoking something because I was stunned at their comments. I do prefer her more "Someone To Watch Over Me"-like approach to songs, but she did well for a Whitney song.
4. Taylor Hicks -- I know it's gonna sound crazy, but I'm actually starting to like Taylor. And I happened to love this performance, but the judges weren't too crazy. Hmm.
5. Kellie Pickler -- It was just okay. I think the reason why her fans didn't blast the phone lines was because she showed absolutely no charm except for in the interview before her package. It was just the wrong song and the wrong approach to it.
6. Paris Bennett -- Call me crazy, but I just didn't like it. I think she needs to work on going more in and out -- she should start soft and end big versus singing the whole song with power. If any of you listen to Nigel Lythgoe's interviews with TV Week, he even mentions that Paris gets too powered up too early in the song. I don't feel any any any emotion when she sings either, so I don't know. It also seems like she's just... there. To me, she's not showing that she wants to be there.

I was hoping at least one of the judges would stop pumping sunshine into this overrated karaoke singer, but wasn't expecting for Paula to take part and especially the host with his smart ass remark.
