If you don't like American Idol, simply don't post. ----------------- Since nobody really cares about anything other than the top 12, I'll start with them: 12th Place - David Hernandez - He was a good singer, but his past history lost him votes, in my opinion. He should have gone further. 11th Place - Amanda Overmyer - I really don't know how she got as far as she did. I couldn't understand anything she sang. 10th Place - Chikezie - He was bad in the beginning, but started getting better towards the end. But, he should've gone when he did. 9th Place - Ramiele Malubay - Pretty good singer, but wasn't a strong enough vocalist. She couldn't stand up (pun intended) to the competition. 8th Place - Michael Johns - Definite shocker. He deserved to be in the top 4 at least. No one expected him to go, but he was one of my favorites. 7th Place - Kirsty Lee Cook - It was time. But she was getting better as the weeks went by. But like I said before, she wasn't a match for the rest. Still in the competition: Brooke White - She's talented, no doubt, but she's definitely not the best. She should be going within the next, I'll say 3 weeks. Carly Smithson - One of the best vocalists, and one of my favorites since the beginning, until recently. She isn't stepping up to the plate lately. Jason Castro - Okay... this is where I'm confused. Sure he can play the guitar, but he is a horrible vocalist, constantly messing up. But American likes him. Syesha Mercado - Probably the best vocalist in the competition. The judges are really harsh on her probably because they expect more from her. But she needs to go far. David Archuleta - He'll probably make the top 3 and possibly the top 2... He may even win. But it's a popularity contest for him. He sounds the same every week. But he is good. David Cook - Definitely my favorite. The rocker of the group, David Cook has set the bar the past few weeks. Out of everyone left, he deserves to win the most. Your Opinions? I'll update every week with what I thought of the performances of that week. Only 6 more weeks to go.
