I really can't believe that Kris kid got through over Nick/Normal and both of the Matts (piano guy and baldy). He had almost no screen time and his song wasn't very good.

I would have GREATLY preferred Nick to make top 12.

Is it completely heartless to say I don't care for the blind guy's voice?

ETA: love, love love Lil Rounds!!!

Um, I'm not crazy about it either. It's very...choir-y?

And Lil was definitely the best of the night.

He's a snooze. And they need to stop patronizing him. It's fine to acknowledge that he has faced challenges, but not every time he performs.

I think he's terribly boring and has no personality. His music isn't "relevant". Even less personality than Clay Aiken (and I really hated Clay when he was on the show). To be even a little more catty - he jaw is really weird, just like his dad's, which looks even scarier.

I thought the opposite. Although I didn't LOVE Scott, I think he's ok. I don't think he'll make it too far in this competition, though. Unless of course everyone just votes for him because he's blind.

And I'm not so much a fan of Lil Rounds. Don't know why. I was surprised to hear all the judges praise her the way they did.

On the other hand, I didn't really like any of the girls tonight.

Love Jorge, though. I think he's adorable.

I liked Von, Ju'not, Jorge, and Lil Rounds.

The girls who sang "No One" and "Give Me One Reason" were alright. The rest were kind of bland. I agree about them needing to stop jocking the blind guy -- he's good, but not THAT good.

ETA: Listening to the recaps, the blind guy sounds like David Archuleta on a sick day.

I agree that Jorge, Lil and Junot were the best, but I thought quite a few were pretty good, like I was surprised I liked Von. He didn't shout at me through the tv like before and it was okay. I also liked that girl that sand No One. Too bad she's up agains Lil, cuz it aint going to happen!!

I'm sorry, but Scott is just not that good of a singer when you compare ONLY his singing against the others. I know he's been through a lot, and it is wonderful that he has overcome and flourished in a sometimes cruel world, but to be "pimped" over others is just not right!! But, we are talking about Idol here....

Y'all, Dial Idol has Scott winning the men's slot by a mile!

He is not that good!! Jorge and Ju Not were better, but due to the immense pimping by TPTB, Scott will be in our top 12!

For once we agree on something.

Though I had a feeling she'd be back, I don't know how much more of her I can take.

Lil Rounds' pants look like high end mom jeans in white. Thank you Simon for recognizing the fashion tragedy that is those pants. So not flattering. I think she has a good voice, but it takes a lot to impress me on AI any more. Michael Jackson is a tough song book to "make your own"

LMAO at the fact that 1-866-IDOLS-13 is a porn line, so the last contestant tonight will have a "special" number.

I can't stand that they're bringing Tatiana back. Anoop HAS to make the final 12!!

I completely forgot about Anoop until they said his name. I didn't even see him sitting there in the corner. They were down to the last person and said it was an easy decision, I looked at the people left, and I was confused.

Definitely excited he has a second chance.

The sad thing about Tatiana is that Simon said all of the judges wanted her back. Really?! Why? That decision had to be for entertainment purposes only.
