Top Performances (in no particular order):
Chikezie - She's a Woman
Great! Entertaining. Energetic.
Carly - Come Together
A tight package overall - vocals, performance and arrangement
Brooke - Let it Be
Very professional in the Brooke White emotive style
David C. - Eleanor Rigby
Pitchy at beginning but hammered it home from middle on.
Middle of the Road Performances (in no particular order)
Syesha - Got to Get You Into My Life
Good, fun. Strong vocal with nice horn background. I wouldn't
call it EWF like Randy did, but I can't really place my finger
on the style of the background brass arrangement.
Jason - If I Fell
Solid, not spectacular
Michael - Across the Universe
Nice bit of singing - a bit on the dull side
Amanda - You Can't Do That
As a rock performer, she has the chops. This particular song
seemed rather pointless to me though.
Bottom Performances (in no particular order):
David H - I Saw Her Standing There
Came across as very karaoke
Ramiele - In My Life
Boooooorrrrringg - couldn't wait for it to be done
David A - We Can Work It Out
Oopsy on the lyrics. lol. Not a good performance,
not a particularly good sing either
Kristy Lee - Eight Days a Week
Horrendous arrangement. Perhaps could have
sang it with a country twang, but to add that arrangement
made the whole thing seem like a parody. Quite foolish.
Tempo issues didn't help either.
If I had to guess, either Kristy Lee or Ramiele will get the heave ho. David A could, if the voting were actually based on this night's performances. But we know the reality isn't that at all.
Don't we?

David Cook is my favorite this year. I think Brook and Kristi are cute :)
I like David C also. Brooke is a sweetie. Unfortunately, I don't think Kristy has what it takes to stick around. She needs to really nail it next time or she'll be gone IMO.
David C is like this year's Daughtry - which means he has no chance to win the whole thing, but could do well with a recording career. He doesn't come across as particularly charming or likeable, and his style has limitations. Think he could make it into the top four. Amanda is a one-trick pony as well. I expect her to go lower than David C.
But it's all really speculation at this point, ain't it?
