Down to the final twelve!

Now that all the hoopapamowmow is over and we are down to the final twelve, I am ready to begin this years assessment of American Idol.

Tonights results show left me somewhat disappointed but the ones that went today would have gone soon had the ones I wanted to go today went. What did I say? Who cares!

This year I really like Big Mike as my favorite guy and of course, Crystal Bowersox as my favorite girl. This weeks' performances favored the guys IMO.

I think Andrew Garcia should have gone instead of Todrick. Had Alex Lambert been more confident I would have loved for him to have stayed.

Todrick Hall did Sombody to Love by Queen last night and I thought it was amazing. He was definity somebody I loved!

Alex Lambert did Trouble and I also liked that performance. But his trouble continued and he is now on his way home.

They are both gone now.

This Woman's Work by Michael Lynche was untoppable! Loved it. He definitely did a man's job!

Tim Urban's Hallelujah was exceptional, but Tim is inconsistant and could be gone next week. He is adorable, though.

I don't know if Lee Dewyze's Fireflies was his best but I love that guys growling vocals. The dude definitely lights MY fire!

I, like Kara, have a thing for Casey James but thought his rendition of You'll Think of Me was not his best performance. But I will still think of him (without his shirt, preferably)

Aaron Kelly is pretty cool for his age (16) and I love his pipes. He can sing that country! He did I'm Already There. And I was there for the whole thing!

Andrew Garcia did Genie in a Bottle and his picking girl songs is getting old for me. I think he may be out of wishes.

Now the girls.

Katlyn Epperly did I Feel The Earth Move and it moved her right out of the running. I think she lacked personality.

Lilly Scott did I Fall To Pieces and she fell right out of the running, though I did expect her to stay around for awhile. She bugged me but I loved her unique voice.

Crystal Bowersox knocked my socks off again when she sang Give Me One Reason by Tracy Chapman. She gave me a reason to like her even more!

Siobhan Magness did House of the Rising Sun, but didn't quite shine. It was better than the rest, though.

Katie Stephens Breakaway broke my heart and hurt my ears.

Lacey Brown sang The Story and I wish it had been her last page.

Didi Benami did Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac and I had hoped it would have been more fleeting.

Paige Miles did Smile and made me frown.

All in all, the girls sucked, except for Crystal Bowersox.

Next week will be songs by The Rolling Stones and I am PUMPED!

There ya have it!
