...after his performance last week. Simon was especially impressed.

Second is Danny Gokey, and third is the blind guy.

1. I only saw the second half tonight; was out
Michael was underwhelming again - I wonder if he will be the next to go

Lil Rounds was AMAZING! What were the judges thinking? I think it was a perfect 10, and she could be better off with older-style stuff

Adam's voice was thin and pitchy, but still way better than last week

Danny was overwrought yet again IMO

Alison was good, but she might need to step it up to stay

2. My review of the performances you missed...
Megan: Horrible....just horrible. How did she even make it to Hollywood?

Anoop: He was ok but kind of boring. His vocals weren't as good as the judge thought.

Matt: He did a very good. It was probably his best performance.

Scott: About the same as the rest of his performances. He's not a great singer (despite what the judges think) and is getting by on his story. He only has another week or two in him.

Kris: He was ok. I don't think it was a great vocal performance.


I thought Adam and Allison were the best of the night. Allison was someone I haven't liked because she always seems to be yelling. Tonight, however, she did a great job. I agree with the judges about Lil' Rounds. It was just average and I was expecting more from her. I agree with Simon on Danny....cheesy and "karaoke." Michael will go home tomorrow, IMO.

4. Thanks for the synopsis, even though we have some strong..

disagreements this season. I'm sure Megan was bad again, and I like Matt, even though he is a bit like Justin Timberlake. He's just less cheesy in a bad way.

My points given out of 25:

Michael - 13
Lil Rounds - 24
Adam - 15
Danny - 12
Alison - 21

5. See I usually love Lil, and I agreed with the judges!

She could've done so much better this week. And I am usually iffy about Adam, and tonight I loved him. I was disappointed in Megan. I like her voice, but she was not good tonight.

6. I must be alone, then
I still think it was her best performance yet.
