Top 11 (minus one REALLY, really good one)

What? I have a right to pout. I voted a TON last week! I get to complain. So there.

Amanda - I didn't love it tonight. I don't think this was a great song for showcasing her voice. It was a nice rocker song. I *did* love her answer to Simon. Did she really get away with saying "shit" on network tv?

Kristy Lee
- Ick. How many frickin' times do I have to tell you to go home? I hate you because you're taking my man's spot. AND your singing sucked.

David A.
- He's back. Loved it. D'ya think he took a stumble on purpose last week? I don't actually think he did....but it wouldn't've been a bad idea. And Simon loved it. Yay.

Michael - I actually thought he *looked* better tonight than any other night. But....I didn't really like it. He hasn't connected with me yet.

Brooke - She *is* a little piece of sun. So, to sing "Here Comes the Sun" seems apropos. I don't know....I agree that her dancing was awkward, but almost so awkward that it was adorkable. And she makes a great point....after last week? She HAD to have a poorer performance in comparison.

David C. - I really, really liked it. He's got the rocker thing down. I didn't think the voice box was gimmicky (or maybe it was, but it worked for me). I thought he might have gotten just a *touch* too smug during the judges' comments, but during the singing? I thought he looked great and sounded great. And they cut his hair - yay! Looking better and better.

Carly - Meh. I am *still* waiting for a song where I can connect with her. I know the judges love her to pieces. I'm waiting...because I just don't see it.

Jason C. - What can I say? I love the boy. Just love. LOVE! Okay, so the audio portion of the performance might not have been spectacular, but.....how ADORABLE was he? That smile. *shakes head* Brilliant. (I don't know how many of you realize just how difficult it IS for me to admit that he's got beautiful eyes. I mean...they're BLUE. *shudders*. But, the thing is that they're so blue they're almost transparent. Which, I know makes them sound even worse, right? *shrugs* I'm baffled.) Oh!! And I'll be damned if "my bell" is not English. *winks*

Syesha - Nice. Very pretty. A different arrangement that really worked. I thought the "my family is here for the first time" might be the death knell. Maybe not though.

Chikezie - Hmm....started off kinda blah for me. Then I loved the harmonica and the bluegrass switch up! He made me smile and he sounded good. Where is the Jacuzzi that I hated 2, 3 and 4 weeks ago?? Simon hated it. Oh well.

Ramiele - She's a cutie. She had her cuteness factor back tonight. Hope she makes it through.

Going home? Wow. Tough. There are a few that could do that based on the performances tonight. Amanda? Kristy Lee!! Even Michael.

Freaking adorable - I couldn't have summed him up better myself. Think I'll go grab some sandwiches and take a walk in the rain *w*

Michele -
I thought it until last night! No kidding.

He's got some magic working, for sure! Can't wait to see what he does next week.
