blake.. so far, he has shown his creativity with the songs he sang.. tapi tak mustahil gak sanjaya malakar akan menang.. there's nothing "wow" about him, except his cuteness.. maybe americans will take him to the finals based on that

I think Americans have good ears and taste.. but seeing the result show now.. seems like Sanjaya is dominating.. someone that cannot really sing well compare to others... ? dominating American idols... i hope he will be out next.. come on Americans.. do your job well.. Rooting well for Melinda though..

I agree with you ricecooker! Initially I didn't quite like him (cuz of his bald head) but then now I think he is growing on me. ;D However I don't think he will last very much longer unlike Sanjaya Malakar who seems to getting stronger week by week. I don't know what's up with these voters - it looks like AI is no longer a singing competition but rather a popularity contest. Just look at last year's winner - Taylor Hicks?!!!!! Personally I don't see anything in Sanjaya but I guess to the Americans he is something different. To some people he is a joke but to others....well what can I say, they love him! So let's see how long he will last........

2 stars to watch now, melinda n jordin. melinda - a pro! give her any genre and she nailed it, all of the judges passed her positive comments, i can't see why she's not going to win this. she has a soulful voice. i start to like her while performing in Top 12, her voice gives me goose bumps though, then i realised that i like her jordin - she's simply sparkling, sweet voice and honest. her strength in melodious, slow numbers and she did well on those. i start to like jordin when she sang i who have nothing and her vocals just gave me chills on my spine! phewww... on the other hand, my interest is blake, for same reason why i like faizal tahir in OIAM -- creative. if he managed to bring his creativity in songs and if simon likes it, he can stay there but i'm not sure he'll be in Top 2... sad sad... tapi tengok je la keadaan nye nnt camna.. adat pertandingan yang berasaskan sms, hehe~

Heee I voted for Blake ... Now that we can see Blake has 5 votes ... Hopefully he will make it to Top 2 ... Yerp ... Finally ... Sanjaya got the boot!!! It was so freaking awesome to watch that!!! He seemed like a little kid trying to do his best to win the judges' hearts with crap performances! Sorry Sanjaya's fans ... It's time for the Americans to vote for the most talented Idol! p/s: Still ... Chris Daughtry is my favourite ... ;D

at last, Sanjaya's out! he actually can sing. its just that he doesnt really know how to turn a nice tone into a good voice projection and a good performance, just like Suki! hehehe. I think he's still searching for his way in this kind of field. if he work very hard, i think he'll be an outstanding singer one day! I think Jordin will be the next American Idol based on the judges' weekly comments and votes from the fans. she's a super-talented singer despite of her young age - 16 or 17? i dont remember...Melinda's also has a great vocal and I think she and Jordin will be in the Top 2. Blake is creative, just like Faizal Tahir. But what differentiate him from Faizal is, I think he doesnt really have a good tone. Im not fond of him. I feel attracted to watch his performance every week becoz of the creativity that he shows but I dont really pay much attention to him, if u get wut i mean. To me, American Idol emphasizes more on vocal and voice projection rather than the showmanship. Its different compared to OIAM whereby the judges always reminded the contestant to pay attention to the audience and show uniqueness in every performance (other than the vocal stuff, of course!)..That's what i dont really like about American Idol and that's why I don't really agree if Jordin wins the competition. To me, and idol should have an outstanding voice, can perform well and good at showmanship. Well, I'm not that good to give comments about the contestants and the competiton. The judges are way too expert in this kinda thing and maybe they have good reasons why and why not they do the things they do! Ceyh! tetiba nyanyi lagu The Things You Do from The Wonders!

Actually, they do focus on showmanship... for instance: Bo Bice remember him? he was the FIRST Idol to ever pull-off stage stunts like tht on AI, n he got many praises n encouragement frm the fans n judges. heck, it even got him to the top 2.(in fact, this is the beginning of how big boss faizal tahir learned how to lompat2 off n on stage, n gain his showmanship credibiltiy... yes folks, Bo Bice started it allll) but his voice was ok, nothing spectacular, but it was his tone n style of singing n performing tht got him the votes.. almost every week, he got consistant good feedback frm the judges.. anyway, i dont like that justin timberlake wannabe guy... SO macam nak tiru gaya JUSTIN. y does it seem as if nobody else sees tht? not even the judges mentioned anything about it. for gudness sakes! he tries to SIng like justin (dgn tone2 suara die tu), n he OBVIOUSLY tries to DANCE like Justin, n c'mon, dont tell me u dont even notice he wears hi CLOTHES like justin???.... n to make things worse, he even tries to copy justin's HAIRCUT?!! Hello? ?........... im not saying hes not talented, evidently he is. but to me, if you're "copy-pasting" frm a better version of wht ure tryna be, u aint got CLASS!!!! be original man! get a life! huh! sorry, im very irritated by copy-cats who take credit for themselves.. perasan nya...

I read that Chris Richardson sang that one of Bon Jovi's most famous songs - Wanted Dead Or Alive ... and he was one of the contestants who got the boot ... well we'll see this Friday ... p/s: Read that everyone was lambasting Chris R for choosing Wanted Dead Or Alive knowing how Chris Daughtry did that song ... Yeah still remember how sexy Chris Daughtry was with his sexy tone singing this song? .. huhuhhuhu muuuaaahhhhh Chris D!!! Buekkkkk Chris R!!
