Last night she was HORRENDOUS - total performance by far the worse of the four.

I agree. I didn't like either performance by Carrie.

Thankfully we only had to listen to 4 country songs. I don't think I could have handled any more.

Okay, be realistic guys...unless it's because you just hate country, you can't think she was that bad...her voice is amazing...

She's a little stiff I admit, but you can't deny she has a great voice...

I thought that the first country song didn't sound that great. Yes I hate country but it still didn't sound good to me.

I thought the second song she did was terrible. I was actually shocked at how much better Anthony did with that song. I usually really like Carrie's voice but last night I think she was off.

If I were to pick someone to go it would be Carrie.

I like some country - she has done well with Country before - just not last night.

Very true. In the past when she has done a country song or put a country spin on one it has sounded great. Last night it sounded like doo doo.

Bye-bye Anthony......


Down to Bo, Vonzell and Carrie - all three have talent. Bo is the most advanced (as would be expected for someone with his age/experience).

Surprised he made it that far, even though his later performances have been much better than his earlier ones, he was lucky to have had the opportunity to get as far as he did...

Carrie will be next... She has a good voice, though not as great as some say... She is just too stiff, not a performer at all... Vo and Bo to the final two... (now that I have said that, it most certainly will seal Vo's fate) :confused:

Kinda touching how upset Carrie was when Anthony was eliminated. She was bawling as he sang his farewell song. You could see her mouth "I love you" to him........

Does anyone doubt that Bo will run away with this one? I feel like there's not even any suspense.

I was actually a little surprised it was Anthony last night. No, I don't think he's as talented as those left, but he certainly has a better night than Vo or Carrie, IMO.

Yeah, but hopefully America is not voting just based on nights, or the good people could be gone when they don't deserve to be.

Anthony has sucked for awhile, and so he has one good night and should stay over Carrie or Vonzel?

That's shouldn't happen...

I don't know about that. We were down to the final four--they'd better bring thier A-Game every night. The person that doesn't deserves to go home, IMO.

I would have sent Vo home. I think she was the worst this week.

I can't even get into this show any more. I think this year they all were pretty weak. Kelly Clarkson is lightyears ahead of this group.

When Bo freakin Bice is going to be the runaway winner....I've just about had enough of AI...

Tough to say they talk about consistency every week (the judges) which to me implies they expect people to consider body of work over just that week when they vote.

This one is really hard to peg for me, I fully expected the final 3 to be Bo, Vonzell, and Sideshow Bob err Nadia, and I personally figured Nadia would win.

Bo Bice sucks. This hillybilly wannabee Creed singer should definitely lose. The only reason he's on the show is because Idol flamed so badly with their last two winners that they are trying to change their image. If the show wants to have a winner that has marketablility and will actually put a dent in the music biz, then Carrie should win. She will be a country superstar. The rest are just there.

And furthermore, when you're down to the top 7 or so, I should not be cringing when songs are being sung. Some of the songs, especially disco/dance song night, were just brutal. And I dig that music...just not the way they "sang" it.

Bo Bice is a good performer, a decent singer and has his own look. Therefore, he is head and shoulders above the rest of them. Carrie has a great voice, but couldn't excite a crowd of people to save her life. I dig her voice, but she needs to learn to perform.

Constantine...ugh...so glad that asshat got voted off. I might have gone crazy if I caught another one of his songs and watched him RAWK and *kick* like a freaking roped calf. That guy was the dictionary definition of no-talent ass clown.

Ruben is doing very well on the R&B charts - - that is his niche.



American Idol has already given country Josh Gracin, who just went gold with his first album - and he was 5th. If Carrie has a country future, she doesn't need to win AI.

Other than that I think they all are pretty good, Poor Carrie tried to move a bit and that just does not work for her...
