American Idol - Fox TV Show
Season 7
The Top 6 Show!
04-22-08 Our Take
Songs Theme For The Night Was:
"Music Of Andrew Lloyd Webber"!
Last Night it was the 'Top 6' who performed on the New Stage in a 1 Hour show! Once again there will be only 2 Nights of American Idol this week... with Tuesday Night the Performance Night, and then Results Night Show on Wednesday!
Here are our 'scores', (based on 1-10, 10 being highest), on each performance with the 4th column showing the difference between Michael's score and Tina's score. The 'contestants' are listed in order of performance during the night, NOT by numerical score:
The 'Top 6'
(No #) | Name of Contestant / Song Perfomed | Michael's Take | Score Difference | Tina's Take |
1 | Syesha Mercado / One Rock N Roll Too Many | 9.25 - Wow! | 0.25 | 9.5 - Fantastic! Entertaining! |
| 2 | Jason Castro / Memory | 7.0 - For Guts! | 1.0 | 6.0 - Ruined the song for me! |
| 3 | Brooke White / You Must Love Me | 6.5 - Docked for false start. | 1.0 | 7.5 - Wasn't great... |
| 4 | David Archuletta / Think Of Me | 7.0 - Weak take on girl's song. | 1.0 | 8.0 - Ending was very good, but song was boring... |
| 5 | Carly Smithson / Superstar | 9.5 - Hated the original version... but this was great! | 1.0 | 8.5 - good performance. |
| 6 | David Cook / Music Of The Night | 9.0 - Good, but not the best performance of the night. | 1.0 | 8.0 - His worst performance ever! |
| | | | | |
General Notes:
Ryan stated that today was 'Earth Day', so Idol is using 'Green Power' at The Finale!
The band section was brought down to the stage for the performances tonight... which is what Tina brought up weeks ago when the idols first moved to this new stage...
Randy Jackson said before the start of the performances that tonight would 'Probably will be the toughest night of the Season!'
Now for the comments from Tina and Michael!
Tina's comments: Tina has had it with Brooke! Thought it was very interesting that Paula for a change actually came down on someone. Paula is the only real performer of the three judges. Tina appreciated and agreed with Paula's comment on Brooke's stopping and re-starting her song...
Michael's comments: Michael was wondering why two of the guys sang versions of 'girl's songs'... similar as to why Andrew Lloyd Webber was wondering why also... A really 'mixed' night of performances, with Syesha showing her true strengths and where she could go if she doesn't win 'Idol'...
One last comment: Our parakeet 'Clouds' usually enjoys the American Idol show. However Clouds was quiet until David Cook came on and during the whole performance was dancing and singing along with David C! If Clouds could 'dial' a phone David C would have Clouds' vote!
What we normally do this far into the process is to vote for the highest one or two contestants per the score we gave them.
Michael voted for Syesha Mercado (9.25) pictured above, and Carly Smithson (9.5), while Tina voted twice for Syesha Mercado (9.5), who she thought did a Fantastic Entertaining Performance!
Michael thinks that Jason or Brooke should go based on their performances, and Tina thinks that Jason should go based on last night!
