American Idol Week Three
Well, I was hoping last week was merely an aberration and thank goodness I was right! Other than the bottom 2 on my list, the rest of them were pretty darn good and there was a lot of personality going on. A lot of unique and memorable voices tonight.
And even though, as Simon said, Ryan's sweater was kinda weird, he's still a great host!
1. Elizabeth - she went for it and enjoyed it - she was one of my favs from the auditions, but she really did NOT have the legs to pull off that outfit.
2. Eric - he has a good voice but I think his song choice was not that great and he was kinda boring overall - even his outfit.
3. Amy - not into the pink hair, but it DOES make her memorable - she chose a really tough song to sing and did a good job and she definitely has a BIG personality.
4. Jon Peter - his voice is a wow in that it is surprising in a way that it comes out of someone who is so lacking in personality - I wasn't too thrilled with some of his affectations, but he definitely has range and a unique sound.
5. Charly - she is a fireball of personality, her accent is adorable and she has definite potential.
6. Jonah - there is potential in there somewhere, but I think he chose totally the wrong song - it was boring and didn't show off his vocal skills at all.
7. Leah - she has a unique voice and I really really like it - for 17 years old a definite wow - I think she can really grow in this competition - there is something about her that I really like and she connects with the audience.
8. Latoya - absolutely without question the best performance of the night - a great voice, but there was something lacking for me - I guess I felt like she didn't bring anything new to the song and I wanted to hear that - but she definitely connected with the audience in a big way.
My ranking:
1. Latoya
2. Leah
3. Amy
4. Charly
5. Jon Peter
6. Elizabeth
7. Eric
8. Jonah
My prediction:
Latoya will definitely go through and probably Amy. I think Leah may have an outside chance because she really does have a LOT of potential.
Tomorrow night will be very interesting! This was a tough choice for me this week!
