American Idol: Top 12

[cliffdweller]

I wasn't blown away by anyone last night. I think Elliott's going home tonight too. It seems like the judges weren't all that impressed with him. Katharine is boring and Taylor is only on about 30% of the time. I liked his rendition of "You Are so Beautiful" but his "Try A Little Tenderness" was not nearly on par enough to win this Otis Redding fan over. I was really stoked that he did that song, but the beginning was mostly bad and then by the end he was trying too hard. I don't like his dancing, it's not cute anymore.

Elliott didn't impress me with any of his songs either Dude needs to come out of himself and he could have with Open Arms--that song is nothing if not heart-wrenchingly emotional. He could have done so much with that moment but he didn't. He just stood there like a wooden statue basically. I still think he has the best voice left in the competition, unfortunately, he doesn't act like he does.

Who else is just sick of Katharine by now? Lord knows I am...
