American Idol: Top 8

Overall a very solid show. Love most of the performances. Adam again takes the cake tonight. I just love that song and it was, to use the words of Simon Cowell, BRILLIANT!

Here's my recap in no particular order:

1. Adam Lambert: DAMN! That was unreal! Amazing, amazing, amazing.

2. Alison Iraheta: Solid. I didn't really think she did much to make the song her own though. I think her unique voice is what made it sound different than the original but that was it. I did like that she did a slow song.

3. Anoop Desai: Another solid performance. He can certainly sing, but he's just along for the ride because he isn't the worst but isn't the best.

4. Danny Gokey: I loved the end of his song. He has mad vocals. I did agree with the judges about the weirdness of the arrangement but who cares he can SING!

5. Kris Allen: Seriously, SHAVE THE DAMN PORN STASH. He looks like a big fat tool. I really do not get what my lady friends see in this guy, he gives off a serious creep vibe. But I digress, performance wise, it was BAD. He went from being outstanding last week to mediocre. Huge let down in comparison. Simon said it best when he said forgettable.

6. Lil Rounds: She is going to be in trouble. She can sing but at this stage that isn't enough anymore. She needs to step it up big time to stay in this thing.

7. Matt Giraud: Hello, Matt! Welcome back. I knew he wouldn't let me down two weeks in a row! That was FANTASTIC! Loved it. Hells yeah!

8. Scott MacIntyre: That has to be one of the corniest, cheesiest, lamest performances in AI history. There was a 16 year old crooner one year that was worse but that is it. If he doesn't go home this week then, I just don't know what the hell America is thinking.

Bottom three would have to be Scott, Lil and Kris. With Scott being the worst by a MILE! He really needs to go home, really.
