Okay -- first -- I admit to be an unabashed fan of the Brothers Gibb. Barry looked awful.
As for the performances last night -- I think Blake may have killed himself. Neither performance was horrible -- but his version of the first song seemed to contrived -- and didn't work. The second song was just a lousy song -- and while he may have performed it okay -- I think he will be hurt by it.
I thought Doilittle did a lot. I thought she was better in the first song -- which the judges didn't love.
Melinda was bad in song, song choice, song style, and dress in the first song -- and that hurt.
Jordan was great in song choice on the first song. She nailed it -- and it is one of my favortes -- the judges loved her too.
She did not get much love in the second song -- which I do not like -- but I thought she did a workman like job on it.
If I had to bet:
Blake goes home tonight. (Which is a bit of a shame -- as he has the most overall musical talent of all of them.)
Doolittle and Jordan are safe -- and Melinda is on the bubble.

I thought I was losing it for a second there.

I don't know if Blake will go home tonight. I didn't like either of his performances, but I think he has more of a following than Kiki (aka Lakisha) does.

No-lip Blake will go home!
Based on last night, I think Jordin should win.

Good call.
(Ha).
I knew it was would be Lakisha--simple demographics. Blake sucked, but you had three girls that appealed to the same group. I don't think too many people were surprised (well other than this board with you crazy bozos).

Wow, I was surprised. I can't take anymore BeBopping or whatever it is that Blake does. I hope Melinda brings it next week. Jordin will probably still win.

Oh thank God! A voice of sanity amongst the crazies. I cannot stand the beat boxing. Blake is nothing more than a washed up O-Town reject.
Superstew, I think el8 is going to ban us both. He thinks Blake is awesome, and my dissing his mad skillz is blasphemy.

I think this assures a Melinda/Jordan final. I don't see Blake making it through. If he does, however, it will be a close call on Melinda and Jordin. Melinda is the pro -- Jordin is the star.

I still think Melinda has star power. She reminds me a lot of a young Aretha Franklin. My vote is for her.

Melinda is Mrs. Shrek. Just look at her with the no-neck! JK, I do think that she is great and will give Jordin a run for the money next week.

Melinda's more talented, but I think Jordin will win.
Blake is probably the worst contestant to ever make the final 3. I did thought Katherine McBoobsbutnotalent was prettty awful, but Blake is much worse.

I did like his version of..."What's your name, Who's your daddy"...That was hot.

You can't think that Blake is worse than Nikki McKibben or Justin Guarini???

McPhee actually has a good voice. Justin Guarini was way worse than Blake. Voices may have been about equal but at least Blake has originality and is creative.

He would never do that plus he has been so wrapped up in work, I don't think he has read the board lately and I know for certain he didn't watch this weeks episodes. I'm just happy Blake is still in it - I know he won't win but whatever he is as cool as ice.
