Elliott was fantastic last night. I have liked him all along. He just keeps getting better and better.

Taylor was great on In the Ghetto and good on Jailhouse Rock.

I liked Chris on Suspicious Minds, but didn't care for A Little Less Conversation.

Katharine was not good IMO. She needs to go this week. But this is the part of AI where the popularity sometimes overrides the performances and that makes me think she'll be safe.

I hate to say it, but I think Chris is in trouble. I thought both of his songs were good, but were missing the "wow" factor.

I agree. This was the first time I really liked Elliott too. He sounded great. Taylor was also great on his second song. I wish he would just sing like that more than do all of his dancing.

I too am a little worried for Chris tonight. His songs weren't anything special last night. I do hope Kat goes home. She's pretty and she can sing but I don't like her style of singing. She seems to do too much a lot of the time when I think she could keep things more simple.

Elliot was the best. Fantastic vocals. Those songs aren't easy to sing either.

Chris was dull on Suspicious Minds (which upset me, it's probably my favorite Elvis tune) but I thought he rocked on A Little Less Conversation.

Taylor - I thought he'd do better, to be honest. Jailhouse Rock was OK, but a bit too over the top for me. He sang the hell out of In The Ghetto, but the musical arrangement blew so badly I was distracted. Hated it. Uou don't mess with a classic like In The Ghetto unless you're Eric Cartman, M'kay?

Kat - anyone else think that one of her dance movesduring All Shook Up/Hound Dog seemed to mimic her scratching her crotch?

No lie, a bunch of people I've talked to noticed it too. Gross. The first two lines of Can't Help Falling In Love were spot on, then it went straight to hell after that. Jesus, girl, stop with the vocal gymnastics, you fall on your face every time. Screeeeeeeeeeech!

I think Kat should go, but I am worried about Chris. Kat may automatically get some of Paris's votes since she's the only chick left. I couldn't get any votes in last night so I gave up.

Where was the horn section on Suspicious Minds? The backing vocals didn't sound right either.
I am so rooting for Elliot.

Taylor was ok.

precisely, my dear.

amen. I laughed my ass off last night watching her...I knew it was coming, I crossed my fingers...and BAM. big ol screech. yay.

Patti · #**457** 05-10-2006, 11:34 AM

I totally agree about the arrangement on In The Ghetto. I think they should have stuck more closely with the original and it would have been an even better song. The vocals were great, but the arrangement? Not so much.

I was able to vote about four/five times in a row for Chris, which worried me.

I also voted for Kat once accidentally.

for shame! lol.

I think Elliot gave everything he had last night, but I still think he's going home. I hope I'm wrong. I think the final two will be Chris and Katharine...maybe Chris and Taylor.

I know! If Kat stays by one vote, we know who to blame.

I'd rather see Kat or Taylor go than Elliott. I'd like him around another week.

Bwah! I didn't notice that persay, but I DID notice that her dancing, overall was as Simon said, MANIC

. I don't know what that display was supposed to be, but I thought it was fug.

I guess I'm the only one who thinks Taylor is a bit of an assclown

. I don't know, I like his voice, but his theatrics are really irritating me!

Oh, Brandon. Poor, dear, sweet Brandon.

I'm teasing you of course, but did you honestly not notice how pitchy she gets when she tries to do runs with her voice? Like she can't find her way back to the right note? Plus last week, she lost her spot in the timing of the song, and this week she forgot the lyrics. Blech.

I am soooo excited to see Lisa Marie, she's one cool ass bitch.

Now Priscilla - I know you love her, sweetie, but she's resembling a corpse more & more each day.

A stunningly beautiful woman who altered her face with surgery to the point that she's unrecognizable. So sad.

And I do love Cilla..
