I really hope he wins! The thing is, I really don't think he would be particularly bummed if he didn't. He has it going on without American Idol, and that shows through. He is so relaxed as a performer.

I love Anwar. He is my true favorite, but I don;t think he will win. Anwar and Bo. And I do like Nadia a lot, too. Please, though, America, vote The Nanny off tonight!

You mean that woman that CAN'T SING and won over Amanda Avila which is STILL pissing me off. Amanda Avila is 10 times better than her. Her voice is TERRIBLE. ARRRRRRRRRRG.

This has to be the end of the road for the NANNY. She can't sing, and she's incredibly annoying.

Carrie has a fabulous voice, but she is boring to me. Still, i agree that she and Bo should be one and two, with Anwar up there somewhere.
The sad thing about Mikhaila is that she is obviously trying to tone herself down, but it is backfiring.She is a young thing, though, and she will be back again I'm sure. When she hits it right, she does have a very powerful voice.
I liked Amanda too, but overall, I think the men are better this year.

I love listening to Bo sing. I can't exactly pinpoint why, but I love listening to it. I will be mad if he doesn't get an album deal, 'cause I want to listen to more of his voice.

Bo is the man! I always hoped they would get a rocker on that show. I really hope he wins. But if not, Vonzell has a very good voice. Nikko did well this week as well.

From the links, he sounds like Joe Cocker with a little of James Taylor to smooth out the edges in a post-Eddie Vedder world.
He sounds like the perfect candidate to do an album of Joe Cocker covers. And seeing how most of Cocker's hits were covers, it would be an album of covers of covers. I'd still buy it though.

Well, you could just go to www.idolforever.com and register (free registration) and then they have a section for "Season 4 MP3's" or "Season 4 Videos".

I like Bo, but I hate the AI format. I can't wait until the contest is over... every time I see him, I just wish he could pick up a guitar, step into a really killer band, and jam on some original pieces. I think the fact that he plays multiple instruments and composes is at least as impressive as his voice. Provided he could find the right band, and if he really can write a decent song, I think he has the potential to be the only person from any season of that show whose album I might potentially be in the market for.
By the way, I loved the Jim Croce song. It was funny... I'd just replaced my Jim Croce Greatest Hits onto CD the week before that show, and I'd introduced my wife to Time In a Bottle about two days earlier. And unlike some of the judges, I found it most refreshing that someone finally had the nads to be subdued for once. I get so sick of the cookie-cutter power ballads with the one piercing high money-shot note at the end. He already proved that he has the chops, and I liked how he put the [bruce lee]emotional content[/bruce lee] above the showing off... I really thought it worked. And finally, I thought it was cool that he pulled the guitar player up on stage with him for his performance on Tuesday. I've always wished someone would do something like that, and I guess it stands to reason that he'd be the one.

Bo is awesome and he doesn't need this competition. He could quit right now and someone would just hand him a record deal.
I also love Constantine, Anwar, Carrie, and Nadia. I loved Constantine's rendition of "I Think I Love You" by the Partridge Family! It was awesome!

Yeah, I got that impression. But I've never seen him play with a band. That's what I'm lamenting. When it's over, I hope to get a load of that, and I hope the band is as good as he is.
By the way, I'm most of the way through those CDs you sent me. I really liked the Percy Hill. It didn't hurt that they covered "King of the World", one of my favorite Steely Dan songs. And if only for "Rush Hour Traffic", It would have been well worth having. However, while I like Percy, I love Railroad Earth. I'm listening to them right now, and they're really hitting my groove button. I'm digging them like mad. They're sure to enter my favorite list. Thanks immensely for turning me on to both of those bands. [/derail]

Yeah, I keep thinking Bo would do great in a band, provided he can write some totally sweet songs to go with his voice.
Oh, and I hate Constantine. He just doesn't have the same natural charisma as Bo does. And he comes off as a poser.

Syn, for those of us in a later time zone, would you mind putting SPOILER on your posts like that, please? AI won't be on here yet for another hour.
Not that I'm going to watch it now, since I know the results.

So far, my personal favorites are Bo, Nadia, Anwar, and Constantine. However, Carrie and Nikko impressed me with their performances last Tuesday night.

I going to second the love that Bo is receiving. The man has a wonderful voice and an easy in-your-livingroom charisma that is magical. Constatine on the other hand has a weak tinny voice and simply grates on my nerves.

His songs are really good on the website. One way or another, this will boost his career. or will it? Could the contract hinder him in some way?

Yeah, my money was on Anthony getting voted off this week. I wasn't unhappy about Jessica getting the boot though it surprised me. She's got a great voice, but I hate watching her perform. Part of it is her fashion choices, part of it is that she reminds me too much of Diana DeGarmo.
The office bet was that the bottom two would be Anthony and Scott. So much for our accuracy.

I like Anthony. He is cute. But, they better not vote off Anwar because I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE HIM.

I was thinking about the reason. He committed a Rock n Roll Sin. Freebird is a sacred song. He sang it to get points, and it backfired. It is not a song to be sung lightly. I am so glad he made it through. I love Nadia, though, and dang it, Anthony sqyeaks by again.

You mean the songs from last night? Hmm. Sometimes MediaPlayer can be finicky if you have another program open. Try closing everything else down.
