I really liked the guys’ version of Mariah Carey’s songs especially David Cook’s. Methinks that it will be one of the ladies that will be sent home this week. Let me share my thoughts:

  • Surprisingly, I actually liked KLC’s rendition of “Forever”. So I think she is safe for another week.
  • Meanwhile, Brooke White was a a bit off with her version of “Hero”.
  • I barely remember Syesha Mercado’s performance despite the strong vocals she put in at the latter part of the song. Vanishing. Come on…Why pick a song with that title?!
  • Carly Smithson’s “Without You” got a not-so-good comments from the judges especially from Simon. So the odds are against her. Personally, I think it was just an ok performance. She has big shoes to fill since Mariah got major vocals. (Also, I can’t seem to shake off Ken Lee whenever I hear this song. :) Go figure!)

For me ~ the bottom three might be dominantly occupied –if not all– by the ladies.

I leave you with Carly’s performance of the song “Without You”
