Not a great night for the girls... I think Brenna is gone (no loss)...

With the song selections, except for a couple of exceptions, I think it only goes to show that real music that can be performed on stage was written in the past.....except for a country performances.

I agree with Moc1. The girls do not have it this year. The 16 year old girl is beautiful but her voice isn't quite there. I don't see any Kelly Clarkson's or Carrie Underwood's in this competition.
Simon is by far the star of the show by telling it like it is. Sugar coating may make some feel good, but the real endorsement is when Simon likes you.
just caught the last few posts here...agree totally with Moc1 and ClevelandDad.
When Simon reminds or scolds the competitors to present the total showbiz package he is right on the mark...as tough as it may be...he is telling the truth.

I'm not so sure about that, Missouri. She has a likeability factor that is off the charts. Look out for Ayla though, Simon nailed it right on the head--she will do whatever it takes to make sure she keeps going.
I'm not out of order! You're out of order! The whole freakin' system is out of order! You want the truth? You want the truth?! You can't HANDLE the truth!

Katherine McPhee sounded really professional tonight and could not even answer the question posed by Ryan Seacreast: "What did you do different that prepared you tonight compared to other nights ?" guess what, she didn't know... Reminds me a great deal how many don't know how they pitch, hit, or run well. PG Jerry made an astute observation down in the Pie Throwing thread in Pitching Forum that said something to the nature of sometimes science seems to take over instead of natural aspects and I agree referring to this comparison even though singing and playing baseball are two seperate things entirely in my comparison. So what ? It's still the same. Sing song...hit ball...Do great singers and hitters "really" know how they do it ? Food for thought. Soul singer Taylor Hicks was also great. Wonder if he knows how he does it ? peace

Some performers and players are just flat out gifted and just do their thing without thinking. There are also those performers and players that are not so naturally gifted but have worked there *** off to become great. I'm sure we can name many MLB players that fall into both categories.

Kellie STRUGGLED Tuesday, but I think it'll be Kevin who gets the ziggy. Thought Bucky did a suprisingly good job with Stevie Wonder, but my wife's only comment was, "How come I can't get my hair to look like that." Had to appreciate the Jessica Simpson "extensions" commment.
