I voted for Ace because I think he looks the part and he can sing, but my favorite male performer this year is Taylor Hicks. I'm also a Will Makar fan, but I think he's too young to win.

Sure Roxy. You like Ace for his voice. BTW my wife likes him to. My favorite is Taylor Hicks. He is having so much fun and is very unique.

Did not get to see the men last week, since TiVo was happily recording Lost instead of Idol. I heard that Christ Daughtry was great, and I'm glad because he's among my favorites. I am also glad to see that Taylor has hung in there for another week. I'll do another poll sometime soon, so that all 2 of us can vote again! |

Will an administrator close this poll, please. I would, but I don't think that I have privileges to do so. Either that - or I'm too dumb to figure out how.  In any event, I want to post an updated poll on the same topic. |

******Spoiler from last night's results show***** The World has gone mad! How can Brian have survived the cut when Gedeon was sent packing?! *in her best Shatner impression* I............just...............don'tunderstand!  |

It was an upset but not totally unexpected. Gedeon was goofy looking but also arrogant. I think he had one of the better singing voices among the contestents but as we have found out before it is not about voices its about popularity. Much like pop stars today.....
I think Ace has one of the worst singing voices. However the women, for some reason, think he is really cute. My wife's eyes jsut kind of glaze over when he comes on...

I think Ace sings well, though I hated his song this last week. Falsetto gives me the willies.  He has a good shot at winning because of the way women react to him. You're right about that. I personally think he's cute, but lacks character and interesting personality foibles. Eye and ear candy - that's Ace. I'd still love to see Taylor or Mandisa win. I can imagine Taylor singing "Walking in Memphis." How phenomenal would that be?! |

Ace won't make it into the top 4. Just like constatine last year. My prediction is Chris, Kerry, and Mandisa in the top 3 with Mandisa winning it. I would like to see Taylor Hicks win but don't see it happening.

Well, Fate, if last night's results are any indication, you're dead on about Ace. But I find myself asking wtf is Kevin Covais still doing in the running? He sucks.  |

Hmm. Double post. Not like anyone but me and Roxy read this. Anyway, was just a matter of time till he got kicked off.

Go figure. I actually preferred Kevin to Bucky this week.
I was kind of disappointed in Taylor's performance. He was fine, but gods, I really want to see him cut loose and just blow the doors off the place!

Yes I predict it will be Chris and Mandessa in the top 2. But don't count Kelly out. She is dang cute and had a very good performance. And no matter what Simon says. Its not a singing competetion, it is a popularity contest.
BTW I thought Bucky was going to go. He doesn't have long to go. My next week surprise loser, Paris.

Not a very good week for anyone on the show. Taylor did probably the best in my mind. But it was definitely an off nite for everyone. Part of it was that they had 10 people and only 1 hour so each person had to cut their song down to about 1.5 minutes.
My prediction about tonights results......Bye Bye Bucky.
Something that did irritate me. They were suppose to be singing songs from the 21st century and Chirs sang a song from 2000. The marketing people won the Millenium battle. bah.

Had no idea that they were going to be singing songs by Queen - only the single greatest band with the single greatest front man in history!
But who among them carried it off? Taylor and Elliott were the best. Chris was fine but he picked the wrong song.
Overall, I think Elliott probably came the closest to doing justice to Mercury/May.
Ever watched the Freddie Mercury tribute concert they held at Wembly to raise money for AIDS awareness? There are some FAB tributes on that disc. Seal singing Who Wants to Live Forever and George Michael singing Somebody to Love. WOW! ;D

Had no idea that they were going to be singing songs by Queen - only the single greatest band with the single greatest front man in history! I specifically made sure NOT to watch Idol this week because they were doing Queen. Sometimes we'll watch it over dinner or I'll randomly stop there while flipping channels. But Queen is just too good, and I couldn't stand to hear anyone butcher Freddy Mercury. The "idol" sound has it's place, but with a Queen song..... SAVE ME!  |

Bye Bye Bucky. Too bad all those Fat Bottom Girls didn't vote for him. Aeron you can watch next week. They will only be butchering Rod Stewart songs. Might be good for Elliott. He needs all the help he can get. |

Post by Aerynrox on Apr 13, 2006 10:41:15 GMT -5
Bucky needed to go, so I'm not freaking out like I was last week, but Ace really sucked and should have been voted off this time.
All Elliott needs is stage presence - a change in his image, and people would vote for him more. His voice is great.

Ace is gone. No big surprise. Elliot is next I'm afraid.

I'm afraid of the same thing. He's such a good singer, but he just doesn't have the presence to pull it off.
From here on out, it will be hard to see anyone go. The remaining six are all pretty talented.
Have I mentioned how much I love Taylor?
And who knew that Rod Stewart was such a nice guy? I actually like him now!

Yes. He as aged well. I liked his girlfriend too. And all this time I thought he was gay.....
p.s. Taylor rocks. Wouldn't that be great if he upset Chris?

I had heard lots of weird rumors about Rod Stewart that made him seem kind of creepy, but from what we saw on the show, he seemed really down to earth - I mean he's got a trophy wife, but what the heck. She's got lots of money now. And that baby was absolutely adorable. |

Ok. Ok. So Eliot cansing a little. But made Paula cry? I mean he is not Chris. I really think she is on drugs.
p.s. Voted fro Kelly twice. She is going to need the help....
