Very sad as he was a genuinely good guy. I knew when Simon was going to make the decision that he was going home. Scott is good, but there are others up on that stage that have more to offer and that's how the decision was made.

that actually made me very sad......I really liked that guy...and what an inspiration he is to those with disabilities....and there was NO DOUBT he sounded better tonight than he did last night...

I think that might have been the most genuine and classy thing Paula has ever said on the show.....she actually was genuinely upset, as were the other judges.....

I think he made that decision a lot harder then expected by the exceptional performance tonight. If he had done that last night he wouldn't be going home tonight.

I don't think they were really going to use the save on Scott. Sure he was good but over at the bench they're all better then him. I think they pretended to deliberate to build up the drama and let him go out better. They're not going to be an ass to him cause he's not Megan, who knew she was going so she acted stupid.

But he was definitely going home. I think there was no way they use the save on him. I think they only use it for Adam, Danny for sure. Lil Rounds I would say yes but I don't know now cause she hasn't shown much.

But I like Scott cause he's got a good attitude and seems always happy. Just time for him to go. At least he gets to go on tour with AI next year.

Scott stuck around much longer than he should have. He gets to go on the tour, and his life is probably going to be much better as a result of idol. The truth is as a singer he was badly outclassed for several weeks.

He may release a single, but lets be honest, as inspiration as he was, had he not been blind he wouldn't have cracked the top 36.

here it is...it took her about 30 seconds to get into it, but after that, this is one of the better renditions i have ever heard...

Allison starts off the night in rocking fashion with a very good rendition of "Dont wanna miss a thing" by Aerosmith...not an easy song for a girl to do, but she did it well...


Anoop followed with his usual ballad, but did nice vocals, but i think it will still land him in the bottom 3..


Adam followed with a surprising "screaming" version of "Born to be Wild"......i continue to miss the boat on this guy, as everyone in the free world loves him except me......i see some talent, but i dont see the obsession....

well, Danny sounded great as usual, but not really sure why he chose a "duet" as his song....even though he sang it great, it still sounds odd when u dont have a woman coming in and singing the second verse.....they guy has chops though...

so far, i would say that Anoop and Matt are destined for the bottom 3 this week

You and me both

SheBar watching this out in living room on bigscreen, while I'm in my office around the corner and down the hall.

All I could hear was him going up and down the scale vocally.

She comes back and tells me, "He's going to win this going away"

Her prediction is Gokey, Allison & Adam with Gokey being first to get bumped

We still have three selections in AI Contest thread, but it seems useless to make any plays on Lambert at this point.

I cant come in first even if Lambert wins! Some new poster who only posted in that thread in his life too all of his plays on Lambert.


Barman, you should use the rest of your picks on an underdog most likely. Since people can still join I guess, alot of guys will come in and just take 5 picks on Lambert or 5 picks on Gokey and place at least

No one can join this contest once the Final 13 AI contestants were named

SheBar just informed me that "It's not even a 99.99% chance that Lambert will win. It's 100% solid"



for those of you scoring at home

Terrible idea with the 2 judge thing. Whole point is to hear Simon critique everyone. Adam once again sucks it up.

I do think that Gokey could sell some CD's, but he sounds too much like David Cook

Youre not alone Bucs, hes friggin awful. The fact that Paula wants to blow him doesnt help either. I keep wondering if im listening to a different version as the judges.
