any song that kirsty lee or jason castro did, for a start jason singing was such a wisper he may of been singing in the mirror to himself and as for kirsty lee she di not have any singing talent at all. michael johns should have been in the top three the shame of idol this season

i feel that chikize was far to chessy and feel his version of she's a women would make any women run across the earth just to escape him. both david cook and david archuleta songs were good thats why it was a certain two david fight for the finale. david archuleta @imagine was a brave and great choice for such a young singer and was the top performance of the season, he deserves to win as he has been the most constint constestant of all idol seasons so far, i feel buddy is just jealous of his talent and that is why not like david archuleta go david a go and win win win

Chikezie Eze - "She's a Woman"

David Cook - "The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face"

Syesha Mercado - "One Rock & Roll Too Many"

I think that David Cook's performance of "Hello" really set him up for what he was to become on the Idol stage. And, just last week, with his performance of "The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face," I think he continued to show that he was still strong.

I also included Michael John's "Bohemian Rhapsody" because it really showed off his pure bluesy voice. It could be argued this was his best all season, but the same can be said for his rendition of "It's All Wrong, but It's All Right." This song followed up on a fantastic performance of "We Will Rock You / We Are the Champions." It was here that Michael seemed to pick himself back up form a line of decent performances and once again deem him a front-runner - although I really wanted to include Go Your Own Way. That was one of my favorite.

David A's "Imagine" established him as one of the strongest competitors, but since then he hasn't been able to top it.

My selections for Brooke, Jason, and Syesha are based on the fact that they were arguably each person's best performance of the season. They were also rather entertaining. White's "You're So Vain" was well-delivered and the fact that it seemed to be aimed at Simon made it better. Jason's "Somewhere Over the rainbow" was entertaining, as well, as was Syesha's "One Rock & Roll Too Many." I think that was her strongest all season.

Best- Carly Smithson's "Come Together" I adore Carly, but this was just an amazing performance that really showed off her voice and range and was her first stand-out performance. Jason Castros' "Hallelujah" This is one of my favorite songs and Jason's voice really went well with the song. He has the laid-back vibe that goes with the song and he was so good on this performance. David Cook's "Eleanor Rigby" The first time I fell in love with Cook. An amazing performance that showcased his talent and he really rocked out. Michael John's "Across the Universe" very well-done, a great low-key performance that I really loved. I'm gonna do my worst in another post.

SuzanneJohnson3 · 05-16-2008, 02:48 PM

Best--1. Always Be My Baby 2. Hallelujah 3. First Time Ever I Saw Your Face 4. Billie Jean 5. Somewhere Over the Rainbow 6. Hello 7. Let It Be 8. We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions 9. Love is a Battlefield 10. Imagine (sorry)

Worst--1. Eight Days a Week 2-10 Every sappy thing Ar-chihuahua ever did

Worst-David Archuleta's "We Can Work It Out" Ugh, one of the worst performances on AI. It was a complete and utter trainwreck. He was all over the place, had no clue what he was doing. David Archuleta's "With You" I still have no clue why David would sing this song. It makes no sense to me. His voice was so mismatched for the song and he really cannot sing pop/R&B songs like this, only ballads. Jason Castro's "Memory" A terrible song for Jason to sing. He just didn't do well at all and it's hard to pinpoint what I didn't like, but it was kinda a mess. Brooke White's "You Must Love Me" She screwed up her lyrics at the beginning, and it threw her off for the entire rest of the song. She was very shaky and odd.

5 Worst Performances of Season 7 (no specific order):

David Archuleta - "With You"

Kristy Lee Cook - "Eight Days A Week"

David Archuleta - "We Can work It Out"

Brooke White - "Jolene"

*Sorry if there are songs that were worse than these mentioned here, I'm going off my memory and these are the few that stand out right now - that's why there are only five.
