American Idol - Top 10

THE MUSIC OF MOTOWN - Berry Gordy and Smokey Robinson

Smokey Robinson looks good for a 69-year-old!  Seriously he must be doing something right.  He's a hot old guy!

Matt - "Let's Get It On"
I really liked Matt this week.  I loved that he started out at the piano and moved to the rest of the stage.  He did a great job and he has really started to stand out among the crowd.  I hope he gets to stay around for awhile!

Kris - "How Sweet It Is"
I noticed that Kris sings out of the side of his mouth and sometimes that bothers me but he is definitely talented.  I loved his song choice and think he is definitely a favorite among the ladies.  I liked him more tonight than I ever have before.  He kind of looks like John Mayer too!

Scott - "You Can't Hurry Love"
This has always been on of my favorite songs since I was a kid.  I love watching Scott play the piano but he still isn't impressing me with his singing.  He's not bad but he's not incredible either.  He doesn't stand out to me, it's just a little blah for me.

Megan - "For Once In My Life"
Megan sounded a lot better when she was practicing with Smokey.  She did not do well tonight.  I usually love her jazzy voice but it just was not there tonight.  She sounded off throughout the whole song.  She was definitely gorgeous tonight though!  I hope she gets to stay around and prove herself.  I don't think she should be on votefortheworst.com either!

Anoop - "Ooh Baby Baby"
Anoop did a pretty good job.  I do wish he would have done something a little more fun or creative.  I agree with Simon that he did a good job but he looked have asleep.  I like seeing his personality when he sings and it just missing for me tonight.

Michael - "Ain't Too Proud To Beg"
He's just a cute guy.  I love that he smiles so much when he sings, you can tell he's having a great time on the stage.  I think Michael did a better job tonight than the judges thought.  I do agree that he won't make it to the end but I don't know that he was the worst tonight.

BREAK TIME
Sometimes I feel like the judges make comments just to influence America.  I'm sure they do that but I wonder if it's something they actually plan.

Lil - "Heatwave"
I had big expectations for her tonight and I was a little let down.  She did a good job but could have done much better with another song.  Her outfit and hair were perfect for the song though!  Simon was actually a lot nicer than I thought he would be.

Adam - "The Tracks Of My Tears"
I thought I'd never be a fan but he made me one tonight.  I didn't even recognize Adam tonight.  He did an incredible job on the song.  He showed a side that I never knew he had in him.  

Danny - "Get Ready"
I cannot say it enough!  I LOVE DANNY GOKEY!  He's an awesome performer and has such a great time on the stage.  I like he raspy voice too!  He's just fun.  I think I'm becoming a little bias about Danny...but it's my blog so I can be. :)

Allison - "Papa Was A Rolling Stone"
I had pretty high expectations for Allison tonight too.  She did a really good job tonight!  I still can't believe that she is only 16.  I hope she isn't in the bottom 3 this week because she does not deserve it!

P.S.  Did anyone else notice Paula's fairy costume she was wearing tonight?  AND what was the deal with the mustache at the end?

I think either Megan or Micheal are going to go tonight. I guess Scott might too.

The guys are really strong this year though! I'm digging it!

I absolutely agree with your assessment, except that I would put Matt up there with Adam & Allison. I LOVE Danny too, but I wish he had picked a medium-pace song instead of a fast-paced one b/c he didn't have as much time to do the riffing that he is so good at.
