AMERICAN IDOL

[ONEBGG]

Sunday's 7 Down to 5.


Graded 0 to 10.0. Comments written down before judges comments and not altered. Comments in order of performance.

Jurnee - Good song and singer. However, This wrong for her, she did fairly well, but I would not call it good. 7.5

Gabby - This is a great song, and as much I like Gabby, I don't think emotes well, boy was I wrong. This was excellent! 8.5

Michael - Don't know the original song, but I did not like this, again, somebody tell this guy he has to close lips now and then to enunciate. He uses is tongue in place of closed lips when speaking and singing, this causes a muddled mess. 6.0

Cade - Did not like his performance of this song, Cade is starting to look like a one-trick pony. 6.0

Catie - Wasn't sure she could pull this off when I heard what she was going sing, and I am a fan of Catie's. I was wrong, she was good. 7.5

Caleb - Big fan of this song. Very well done, but he really needs to work on emoting, but I liked it. 8.0

Maddie - Another big tune tackled, and she did it well. 9.0

Second song...

Michael - Diction! Diction!! Diction!!! Michael has a good voice, but I could not understand a single word of the first verse, the rest wasn't much better. Time to send Michael home. 6.5 = 12.5

Cade - Much-much better. 7.5 = 13.5

Gabby - CRACK! That's sound of her knocking the ball out of the park. Very strong performance. This girl has a very good voice, and she is good looking (this is idol), and she has the country twang when the song calls for it. 10 = 18.5

Jurnee - Somewhat boring, but she was good. 9.0 = 16.5

Catie - Great recovery in that she did not panic or give up. When she got on with the song she was good. This girl is getting stronger each week. 9.0 = 16.5

Maddie - This was better than I expected, and like I stated earlier, I am a fan. 9.0 = 18

Caleb. OMG, this should be released because I think it would sell very well and climb the charts. A smart song choice and a very strong performance. 10.0 = 18
- -

I think the top three at this point is: Caleb, Gabby and Maddie.

I would send home: Cade and Michael.

America sent home: Catie and Jurnee.

America got it wrong, wrong, wrong. How in the hell did Michael make the top 5??? This man can't talk, and he gets even more mumbled when he sings... America let us down this week.
