The second group of 12 out of 36 performed last night on AMERICAN IDOL, and I gotta say it wasn’t much better than last week as a whole. For some reason it seems like the show keeps the best one for last (aka Adam Lambert).
My top three choices after tonight’s performances are: Adam Lambert (of course), Allison Iraheta, and Matt Giraud (just because I think he has potential). We’ll see if any of them gets through tonight.
But for now let’s find out how everybody did:
Jasmine Murray

Song: “Love Song” by Sarah Bareilles
Thoughts: I found her pretty boring. Not that exciting.

Matt Giraud

Song: “Viva La Vida” by Coldplay
Thoughts: Dammit, I really liked him during Hollywood week, but he really didn’t do that great of a job.

Jeanine Vailes

Song: “This Love” by Maroon 5
Thoughts: Wrong choice of song. It was pretty bad. She’s definitely not making it through.

Nick Mitchell

Song: “And I Am Telling You” by
Thoughts: I still don’t know what to make of Nick, but at least he is more entertaining than the other first three we saw. And he actually doesn’t have a bad voice, so I’ll let America decide on that one.

Allison Iraheta

Song: “Alone” by Heart
Thoughts: Finally someone that picks a great song and has a good performance. I really liked her. She needs to go through.

Kris Allen

Song: “Man in the Mirror” by Michael Jackson
Thoughts: I actually enjoyed that performance, it’s too bad we didn’t see much of him in Hollywood week. However, I am still not sure it was the best song for him.

Song: “Put Your Records On” by Corinne Bailey Rae
Thoughts: It was ok, but I wish I liked her performance more.

Matt Breitzke

Song: ” If You Could Only See” by Tonic
Thoughts: I actually enjoyed the song, but the performance was just boring. If you just listened to it, it sounded good but when you looked at him, he just wasn’t that great of a performer.

Jesse Langseth

Kai Kalama

Song: “What Becomes of the Brokenhearted” by Jimmy Ruffin

Mishavonna Henson

Song: “Drops of Jupiter” by Train
Thoughts: Well, I love that song, so that was one thing in Mishavonna’s favor. As for the performance, it was ok. Nothing to jump up and down about, but it was ok. She has a good voice.

Adam Lambert

Song: “Satisfaction” by Rolling Stones
Thoughts: Adam is one of my favorites to start with so I had high hopes for him. I love his voice so much, and I actually think he did really good. He has to go through, the best of the night. Oh and he loves Twilight?! He’s a winner, come on!
