American Idol TV Show Season 7 The Top Eleven Show! 03-18-08 Our Take Theme Was: "The Beatles Songbook"! Last Night it was the 'Top 11' who performed on the New Stage! The Top 11 of them in a 2 Hour show! Here are our 'scores', (based on 1-10, 10 being highest), on each performance with the 4th column showing the difference between my score and Tina's score. The 'contestants' are listed in order of performance during the night, NOT by numerical score: The 'Top 11'
First of all... A few general notes: Last week it was stated that this week's theme would be the 'Lennon-McCartney Songbook' again. It wasn't.... it was opened to all of the 'Beatles Songbook'. Tina commented last week that the band was up too high above the stage, which Ryan was proud of... and this week Ryan mentioned that the hall filled 500 members of the audience in size. Tina also mentioned that she was tired of the group in front waving their hands back and forth on the slower songs.... Simon repeated that American Idol should be a 'Talent Show', not a 'Popularity Contest' and stated that in his mind it was 50/50 at the start of last night's show... Michael is still going with talent not popularity.... i.e. as he thinks Amanda Overmyer is 'hot' looking but rated her only 7.5 on performance. Tina's comments: Is Randy reading our blog that he had to give a numerical score for Amanda's performance? When did he last do that? Michael's comments: Michael disagreed with Simon multiple times during the night... unusual for him... is the new stage affecting what they hear there versus us at home?? Also, is Ryan reading our blog also... as he showed an older audience member last night with him, after my comment last week that he ignored the oldest call-in person with a question?! What we normally do this early in the process is to vote for the highest one or two contestants per the score we gave them. Michael voted for David Cook (9.5) and Michael Johns (9.0), while Tina voted for Syesha (9.5) and David Cook (9.5). Again Chickezie (pictured above) was a high scorer!
