American Idol - Top 8 Guys
01- Gedeon McKinney. “When a Man Loves a Woman”
I really like him! Now, that could be because I just love the song he chose anyway - all in all, I say - Great job. (a bit of a weird creative - who knew?)
02- Chris Daughtry. He has been my favorite guy - but not tonight =(
He starts shakey - and doesn’t get much better. I think he chose the wrong song. Just not as good as he has been! Will he make it? Yep, but not because of tonight. (dang I agreed with Simon AGAIN!)
03- Kevin Covais. “Starry Night”
Bye Kevin. Can’t think of much else to say.
04- Buckey Covington.
Bye Buckey. It just does not work FOR ME. PERIOD. It’s a mix of appearance and performance. Just not good. (who would have suspected he has an identical twin? - hmmm.)
05- Will Makar. “How Sweet It Is”
Love the song, love James Taylor, just didn’t like Will doing it. Will just reminds me of “Bobby” on “The Brady Bunch” waaaay too much. I can’t help it - I just can’t take him seriously! When Simon said (more than once) that he appeals to 11 year old girls - I had to agree. UGH. Now, tonight when he said that he may have gotten the “middle-aged vote”, well I seriously disagree!
06- Taylor Hicks. Doobie Brothers! “Taking it to the Streets”.
GO TAYLOR! Man, I love this guy!! THE BEST! I say win, win, win!! He just gets better every week.
07- Elliot Yamen. “Heaven” Bryan Adams.
Not my fav. Too nasaly. I just didn’t like it. I always liked Elliot a lot, but not tonight.
08- Ace Young. Michael Jackson.
If he wasn’t a sexy thing - I wouldn’t understand his appeal at all. Now, I just have to say I totally just didn’t like this performance. The high notes stunk.
The Vote OFF -
I think the vote-off is between Kevin, Will, and Buckey.
