American Idol Review - Top 4 - Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

I was VERY excited before last night's show about it being a Rock & Roll genre because that is a genre that David Cook is very familiar with. It was a rough night for the Idols though. Of course I have "unconditional love"..(LOL) because I really loved both of David C's performances. Anyway, the judges were disappointed all around because we are now down to the Top 4 and these performances should be amazing.

Here is my take, in my order of preference:

David Cook
*** "Baba O'Reilly" - AMAZING! Loved it! He rocked it and owned it.
*** "Hunrgy Like The Wolf" - I really liked it.

David Archuleta
*** "Stand By Me" - It was OK.
*** "Love Me Tender" - I'm a devout Elvis fan so I will not comment because I am too biased. LOL

Syesha Mercado
*** "Proud Mary" - It was OK. She has a very strong voice.
*** "A Change Is Gonna Come" - Very strong vocals, it was a tad boring to me though.

Jason Castro
*** "I Shot The Sheriff" - Awful
*** "Mr Tambourine Man" - Worse

Bottom 2 prediction - Syesha and Jason

Going home prediction - If people are judging on performance, it will be Jason. It is a shame because he really does have talent. In my opinion, he is not taking the competition seriously enough and hasn't for a few weeks now. It is like he gave up.

Jason looked stoned last night. Both David's rocked! Syesha was forgetable. Just my opinion! Hope I can stay awake tonight!

Hey -- thanks for the heads up, but I've actually already visited (and even commented) at altzmoments! I don't know how to make those lines between the y and o.... I don't see anything on my keyboard that looks like that. ??

I have to ask you, though, if you think David Cook should maybe NOT win, because then he will be more free to record what he likes?? And he won't be stuck in the Idol mold? Just a thought. Think Bo Bice...Chris Daughtry....
