So last night we listened to...or were growled to the last of the final 36. What didja think?  Surprisingly to me - I was not moved enough to vote!  I've never not voted.  On we go...

Von Smith - You're All I Need by Marvin Gaye.  Sweet kid - should really dress more his age dont-cha think?  Looks old and dumpy in that suit. I dislike...VERY MUCH red shoes! Red shoes should only be worn if they have heels attached.  Eek.  I digress. The kid could benefit from some breathing exercises ~ he did a good job but he's certainly not Top 12 Material. 

Taylor Vaifanua - If I Ain't Got You by Alisha Keyes. Man, she really towers over Ryan Seashort.  Give her a basketball, not a microphone!  She looked hot fer sher - a little jittery.  Good potential.

Alex W-T - I Guess Why They Call It The Blues - Elton "I gots lots a sunglasses" John - What a gangly little thing.  How did this kid get past security?  Run! A tigers on the loose!!!!  I appreciate the fun he had - way to knock that mic stand over Tiger.  Are his pants too tight???

Arianna - ABBA - Yeah!  I be loving the Abba.  At the very least she should do a better job than Meryl Streep in Mama Mia, right?  Poor things a little nervous and with slooooow songs, you hear EVERY waver in the voice.  I fully expected a rain cloud to appear over her head.  Not getting thru.

Ju'Not - Hey There Delilah. Danny's pal Jamal did a superior job of this tune during Hollywood week.  Ju'Not - not bad. Not bad - I like his voice alot - he was in tune.  I'm just not a huge fan.  And, whats with the handcuffs strapped to his pants.  C'mon!

Kristin - Give Me One Reason by Tracey Chapman. I don't want to like her...but I kind of did!!  She didn't annoy me! and, when I close my eyes, I like her voice...aside from the little red riding hood dress.  Best so far.  Oh and the comment she made about her purple hair..."my hairdresser made a boo-boo"...Who on earth is her hairdresser?  Frenchy from Grease?!

Nate - I would Do Anything For Love by Meatloaf.  I would do anything if he would just go away.  DRAAAAMMMMAAAAA Mia!  He's Designing Women meats Olivia Newton John.

Felicia - No One by Alisha Keyes.  She is the replacement for the booted Joanna Pacitti.  I dig her big time!  LOVE her voice and her look.  She just pops!

Scott -- Mandoline Rain by Bruce Hornsby.  Where was the Range on this one?  He's a sweetie and I like him.  Nice voice, quite the charmer but I don't know that I'd be excited to see him perform with the touring Idol 12.

Kendall - This One's For The Girls - Martina Mc Bride. I'm diggin on her.  What a cute lil thing in the little yellow dress.  Some good and some bad stuff but overall - I like her.  And, her mom looks like Marie Osmond.

Jorge - Don't Let The Sun.... - Elton John. A little overdramatic - and thats just the eyebrows!!!!!!!!  Holy Moly - TWEEZE, WAX! DO SOMETHING!!!!!   I think he's alright.  Nice enuf guy but...

Lil Rounds - Mary J Blige.  What a sexy little Bumblebee in yellow and black. She nailed it.  She's so in.

Hodge Podge of THOUGHTS:

* Randy has the worlds hugest watch!  Is it also a compass??
* Paula:  Less is more when it comes to Jewels and Whitening Strips.  Still love ya.
* I love when Simon says "Pauler"
* Have you notice all the girls wearing these giant rings this season?  I don't think I like them.

Dats all I gots.
Who WILL go thru: Lil Rounds, Jorge and Scott
Who SHOULD go thru: Lil Rounds, Kristin and Felicia

Thoughts?  Bring it.  Kris
