American Idol 7: Top 9 Performances, Live Thoughts

[TaraMascara]

Ramielle & David Archuleta need to go. I thought Carly was good, as well as syesha, david cook, and michael johns.

Just because David Archuleta isn't old like MJ or KLC doesn't mean that he should be sent home. You anti-archuletas are just a bunch of old farts who don't like young people. If he is sent home because of you guys and David Cook or Kristy stay then I hope all old people die!
From someone who is NOT old!!!

California has probably the biggest concentration of FIlipinos in the US (Orange County and San Diego) and there is still about 40 minutes of voting. Ramielle will not go home tonight, but may sniff the bottom three. She certainly deserves to!!

I was very impressed with Syesha tonight (I actually voted for her for the first time!) When I heard that it was going to be Dolly Parton night I kept hoping that someone would finally re-educate the world about "I Will Always Love You". Syesha did a very nice job of blending Dolly's original (best!) with the Whitney version...I think she respected Dolly by not belting out an imitation of Whitney, though she could easily have done so just to satisfy the unfortunate masses who think of it as "Whitney's Song"!

I love David A, but he always makes me feel like I'm short of breath, too! Does the poor little guy have asthma?

brooke sung the song great like a true country singer, ramielle did a great job with a new age country beat i like her excitement, carly she did poorly and needs to take simons advice with dressing, syesha way to go i like it, kristy did ok not as well as i thought she would, david a didn't do as well as he could of done wrong song against simons verdict, castro it reminded me of bing at a jamica island with this person singing while he passes out wine coolers he doen't deserve to be the next american idol, david cook he did ok but I have already forgotten his performance, michael johns he was the one guy who nailed a female country singers song simon what was up with the attitude tonight, paula I now know why she can't criticize she is a singer herself like dolly said, randy randy randy dawg what else can I say

[dream316]

Am I the only one who was a little creeped out by the eyes on KLC's dress? I don't like that girl's attitude either. I will be very upset if anyone but Ramiele goes before her (though granted, I still like Ramiele more). David C.'s confidence is far exceeded by his skill, which is unquestionably superior to most of his competitors. Also, last week when he wasn't having health trouble, he was perfectly humble and gracious, so perhaps the smugness you read today was more him feeling awful? However, despite my devotion to David C., I agree completely that Michael was the best tonight.

[MomoCheri2]

Gotta desagree with majority here... David Cook is just AWFUL... I guess if he's not stealing other people's arrangement he's is plain boring (as proven tonight by that big piece of muck he did)

[BuddyD]

I'm not a David Cook fan either, but he didn't bother me as much tonight. I think the haircut helped.

[jhottman]

David Cook shows me nothing.
