Personally, I didn't feel LaKisha was a fantastic singer. I was one of those who felt all she does is scream and belt out into a microphone. Other people think she sings great.
There was a time I thought Blake was pretty alright, but that feeling is pretty much gone for me too. Some people are really into his beat-boxing or whatever it's called.
I agree that the last idol (Taylor) is a complete failure, but Carrie Underwood (who I think won before he did?) is selling a phenomenal amount of CDs.
I do think that AI has lost it's sparkle, but mainly because the talent pool recently seems to have been running dry and several people in the last couple of seasons got record deals anyway. If this is a competition is to 'win a recording contract' and 2 or 3 people in the top 5 got record contracts anyway, what's the whole point? Just my .02 though
I agree. It is all a matter of perspective. I guess that is the one thing that makes AI so interesting. Always wondering who the world is going to pick.
Melinda rocked. I think if this is it, Melinda and Blake deserve to move
on. I love Jordin but she didn't bring it the same as the other two. She
is in trouble! I can't wait to see who stays!
This season was a bust IMO.. but I do watch faithfully...lol
I think Melinda and Blake should be the Final 2. Jordin was ok but she never really vocally did it for me. that horrid breathing in the mic she does kills me. She needs a bit more time and also she needs a musical identity

I think it must sound a lot different there in the theater than it does over the tv. I am a Melinda fan but I thought her first song was horrible and the judges just went ape over it. I enjoyed Blake's second and third songs, but he just isn't a great vocalist - just an entertaining guy.

Same here. I was waiting for Simon to tell her that she can't hit the high notes and her vocals were all the over the place. Instead he told her that it was one of her best performances. What?!
