So, I'm watching American Idol again and the contestants are getting some assistance from Randy Travis. Now, I'm not a big country music fan...so I may not be the best person to judge...but here's my humble opinion on their performances:
Michael Sarver --I thought he was okay, but not outstanding.
Allison Iraheta --Even though it's country music night, she added a rock twist to her song and made it her own.
Kris Allen --The judges loved his performance but I thought it was a little boring.
Lil Rounds --Country is not her genre, that's for sure...but she'll be back next week.
Adam Lambert --The rock guy took a big risk tonight. He was borderline crazy. Let's see if it pays off...
Scott MacIntyre --I think he's really talented but too serious for this competition. I see him going on the road with Placido Domingo...appealing to a more sophisticated ear.
Alexis Grace --I didn't love her performance this week and I'm a little confused with her overall look. I like the hair but I'm not sure about that dress and heels though.
Danny Gokey --In rehearsal, he kept messing up in front of Travis but by the time he performed tonight, he was great. This guy is really talented.
Anoop Desai --I really like his voice, it's deeper than I remember it. I think he was phenomenal! The judges? They agreed. It was even one of Simon's favorite performances of the night. Go figure.
Megan Joy Corkrey --I really like her original voice. She's very soulful.
Matt Giraud --The piano and the vocals were just right tonight!
Who's packing their bags and going home tomorrow? I think Scott MacIntyre or Michael Sarver may be done with this competition.
All I have to say is....Anoop..Anoop..Anoop. I LOVED him in the auditions in hollywood. And then sunk in my chair when he did Michael Jackson week soooo wrong...but all he needed was 1 week to bounce back and like Simon said...be a HERO!!! But he is 2nd in the list...my #1 is Danny Gokey...although his choice of clothing left me wondering what in the world is he wearing?...still love him though!!!

Hi B,
You know...I wasn't a big Anoop fan until I heard him singing last week. He has a smooth voice...I really like him too. We'll see how he performs tomorrow.
Thanks for your comment!
