This was not a great night for the girls. Mostly mediocre performances. Lots of lousy song choices.
I am very lukewarm about Carly. Simon thinks she is the one to beat, but she hasn’t yet made me think of her as a favorite.
Tonight’s performance was good, just didn’t get me excited. But she does have a great voice, so I’m hoping she will grow on me.
I really like Syesha, although I agree with the judges that this was a poor song choice. I hope she hangs on because I think she has lots and lots to offer.
I loved Brooke’s take on Carly Simon’s You’re So Vain. Perfect song for her. You go, girl.
The rest of the gals were in that mediocre middle — except for Amanda who was truly AWFUL. Simon said he couldn’t wait for the song to end, and that was just how I felt. Bad song choice. Bad vocal. Bad look. Oh please let her go home!
My votes tonight are going to Brooke with a few for Syesha, just because I think she has more to give us. I won’t vote for Carly because I’m sure she will get lots without my help.
