American Idol 7: Top 4 — CALL NOW!

I’m sorry but if this competition was just about how tecnically well you can sing then yes, i guess Archuleta might win, but by a hair. Cook can seriously sing beautifully AND he’s got a unique sound. Artistry is SERIOUSLY lacking from David - i feel like he’s trying so hard to sound unique, but it’s just not in him. All he seems good at is the neat and shiny 2 minute performances ends with the same “whoahaohao..”. ZZZZZZZZZ… how many times can i listen to that.

How is David Cook old at 25? He has the only voice I would buy…the others are just like the judges say…forgettable. David A only sings one type of songs well - ballads….so boring. Poor Jason…he is from my state, but it was sad tonight. I don’t know how he got this far.

archuleta should stick to broadway - i’d pay to see him there - but i wouldn’t pay to by an album. Cook and Castro - DEFINITELY BUYING THEIR MUSIC. I might buy Baba O’reilly - that was AWESOME!!

Go COOK

Someone needs to explain something to me!! How is it that Jason forgot his lines and you are all crusifying him when, if you can remember, a couple of weeks ago, archuleta forgot his lines…and no one said anything!!! Jason was chewed up by Simon (who needs to calm the F down with his insults, dammit, just say you didnt like it) and you expect the guy to come out swinging!! If you ask me, archuleta needs to go home! People like him cuz he’s so young and therefore so cute!! The kid has been singing THE SAME SONG for the past weeks, they all sound the same, BORING!!! How about some originality David!!! I have to admit that I’m not a crazy fan of syesha but, the girl can sing and, again, someone has to explain to me why the judge NEVER like her and she has a big voice and can hold her notes, and then there’s archuleta who doesnt do anything very impressive and they tell him that he is AMAZING!!! WHY??? what is wrong with them!! Talent wise, David Cook should win. He’s original and he picks great songs (even if the judges think that he comes up with the change-up of the songs on his own, when they are really covers made by other people)!! Cook for the Win!

Syesha should win. She is the best of the 4 in my opinion. She has the voice, the looks and is a lot more diverse than the other 3. I really don’t understand what everyone has against her.

David A. has a good voice but other han that…..boring

David C. I like but he keeps doing the same rock thing week in week out.

Jason I likes in the beginning and I still think there is something about him but he is no American Idol.

jason sucked last night. Simon was right. i had to pause my tv so i could skip his horrible performances! Pack ur bags Jason, one of the David’s is going to win. its so obvious!

btw, Archuleta took it tonight and I kinda liked David Cook’s second song, the Davids for top 2!

The only thing predictable about David Cook is that he is going to change things up. And even then… when you think he’s going to be predictable he goes and sings a song straight (Phantom.) The guy is incredible with a fabulous voice and a personality to match.

Archie is a one trick pony with a crappy lower register. Sure, he sings great for a 12 year old… but recording artist he is not. What in the world is he going to record for a CD… 12 of the best inspirational songs ever? Yeah, that’ll sell. He’s the next Taylor Hicks.. everyone jumping on the bandwagon show-wise because he’s different, but it won’t translate into CD sales. He sounds like a giggly little 12 year old in his interviews and cannot put together more than a 5 word sentence to save his life. Get rid of him.

How many “second” chances does Jason need? He’s had his second chance.. and third… and fourth… He hasn’t been great since “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” I like the guy, but even HE has said that he is ready to go home. Let him.

Syesha was actually likeable last night. Not your typical screaming, but I wish she’d take a few hits for her continual copying of diva performances. People in every other season have been criticized heavily for it. She was, however, much better than the judges gave her credit for on both songs.

i’m a fan of jason but i felt disappointed with his performance tonight. was that deliberate? he can’t be that same person who beautifully sang hallelujah and i don’t want to cry.

i’m still a fan but i’m okay with him going home after this. never mind ai, i’m still gonna buy all your albums jason. =)

fat gastric surgey “oreo” is too too hard on Syesha….. I just dont get it… take him and his “lily” wife and stripe kids go jump in a lake…

syesha was so awesome, and every time…………..he blasts her..

I love Paula Abdul for standing up to him

David Cook has the most AMAZING voice i have ever heard and he is most definately going to win!!! I love you David!!!

For those complaining that the show has become a popularity contest, come on, the very fact that the producers have decided to let the people vote should have made it clear that it was to be a popularity contest - people voting for their favorites. And with the show actually letting people know more about the personal lives of the contestants, viewers are most likely to make some kind of connection to a particular contestant (thus a fan is born). If they don’t want it to be a popularity competition, elimination should just be based on the judges’ decisions…

BTW, I agree with MONICA#51 Archuleta is BORING. seriously BORING. I can’t imagine what its gonna be like for him after AI (if he wins.. which I hope not). Can anyone imagine him as a recording artist? Going on concert tours, performing at the Grammy’s etc?
Everything he sings becomes monotonous… his voice is boring.. if you listen to all his performances I wouldn’t be surprised if you fall asleep.

Jason: I’m a fan but he is… uhm.. losing it. Though I only started noticing him after he sang I don’t wanna cry… it was a cool version (as Simon said) but after that, everything went downhill.. its become painful to watch him sing… (though i download his studio recordings) I still like him though, but I feel that he kinda gave up on winning with all the Cook and Archuleta hype

David Cook and Syesha Mercado - whoever wins I won’t complain. The show has been hard on Syesha who i feel goes for the difficult songs just to prove her worth. I kinda think that she thinks that any song less than what she has sung in the competition would get her unnoticed and elimnated.. the crying was long overdue.

David Cook… kinda like him, good job on tweaking songs…identifiable and seems to know what he’s doing.

HERE’S HOW I RANK THEIR PERFORMANCES:

1 AND 2.) DAVID OR DAVID BOTH ARE AWESOME

3.) SAYESHA YOU’RE HAIR LOOKS GREAT!! BUT I WOULD’NT TURN THIS INTO A CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT..

3.) JASON .. THAT WAS AWFUL .. IF YOU MAKE IT THRU TONIGHT.. YOU MUST HAVE A FEW FANS VOTING FOR YOU A MILLION TIMES

Randy and Simon are lousy actors. I guess they realized after last week that if they want to make it credible when they kick Jason off the show, regardless of votes, they better make Randy and Simon the scripted judges NOT Paula.

Who would really want to be on idol if they knew the show they were putting on was not about them singing, rather pretending to take a total sandbagging, even after a good performance.

Idol is like wresting now. Seriously. They were outraged at that performance? Hardly.
