american idol's season 8's top 9 sings the top itunes downloads of all time. it gave them a freedom to be more contemporary but some chose to do classic songs and give them their own twist. so which risk paid off and which didn't?9. megan corkrey - i did not like the song choice even though i like her voice. i agree with randy, it was knida monotonous but she looks great on stage. i agree with kara, she is in danger
8. anoop desai - hope he won't shoose an usher song again. he is not in that level that usher is, and he is not an r&b singer. if megan escapes tonight's elimination, i think he will be in danger
7. adam lambert - i think this song is kinda untouchable. he gave an over the top performance for such a simple and classic song. i hate the arrangement and it was knda shouty. i did not like it, one of his worst performance so far.
6. lil rounds - boring and forgettable. lil is simply fading in this competition. she needs a break out song next week if she wants to stay in the running. i hate it when someone cries, hope she gets the sympathy votes.
5. allison iraheta - i did not like her arrangement. i did not understand some parts of her songs, she was muttering at points and she is too shouty for me (i have said this before...)
4. scott macintyre - i agree with the judges, this is his best performance so far since the top 13. good choice of song but i hate the hair...
3. matt giraud - it was okay but he was not great. another okay performance. i think he really lacks charisma. he is quite forgettable
2. danny gokey - he gave a decent performance tonight. i agree with paula, it is his emotions that gave each song he sings an edge.
1. kris allen - the best performance of the night by a mile. great arrangement, he surprised us with the piano and =the camera loves him. he has been so consistent so far, who says lack of exposure in the auditions can hurt someone? kris allen proves to us that a good singer can overcome lack of exposure by choosing the right songs and owning it. it's been like hearing a track on his album week after week.
my bottom 3 for this week is megan, adam and anoop. i know that adam will be safe because of his huge fanbase. so its probably megan and anoop going home tonight. fearless forecast is that anoop will be singing for his life tonight. will the judges save him? no.
