Well, well, well. What do you think of the new elimination method to get to the top 12? I’ve got to say, I think I like it. It should weed out the merely good singers from the best ones. I guess we’ll know come Wednesday night if I’m right about that.
Tonight’s votes are for Top Gal, Top Guy, next highest top vote getter, and then there will be a fourth chosen (by the judges, I think) as a wild card.
It’s too soon for me to give a blow by blow. Not enough time invested in these singers yet. I think I’ll settle for just sharing my favorite performances from these 12 kids. I want to make the most of my votes tonight.
I didn’t really have any Big Wow moments through the show. That isn’t to say there weren’t some fine performances. There were. But there was also an abundance of bad song choices. I was really sorry to see that happen to so many. Tatiana was pretty good (not great, but good), but I still hope she doesn’t come back. Even her interaction with the judges during their comments put me on edge. And she was definitely not among the very best of the night’s performances. And my early favorite, Danny Gokey, was the best of the night, IMHO. Great song. Solid performance with lots of emotion.
So here were my favorites of the night (alphabetical by first name):
Alexis Grace | Danny Gokey | Ricky Braddy
And your favorites?
~rlh~
You and I are identical on this one Robin.. I liked all three of them.. Danny’s song was very moving.. I love his heart and hope he goes forward.
You and I have the same tastes, Robin. And Danny is my early favorite. He seems like a genuinely nice guy with a sad history in the loss of his wife. “Hero” was the perfect song. And then I heard that he is a church music director. I don’t really care if he wins the whole thing or not; I just want him to go far enough to get his career off the ground.
