Inspirational night was excellent. It was needed after last week's 3 tragedies - VA Tech, NASA, Blue Angel's Air Show Crash. I'm looking forward to tonight's "Idol Gives Back" special. It was touching to see the judges and Ryan out and about. The best was a humbled Simon.
Melinda and Jordin are the best in this competition. Phenomenal voices!
My bottom 3 picks for this week LaKisha - I think she has a fabulous voice. I don't understand though why she picked songs by back-to-back Idol winners 2 weeks in a row. I don't think she screamed (as Simon said) "I Believe" any more than Fantasia does. It's one of my favorites and I play that song a lot to this day. But of course she's going to be compared to the former Idols.
Blake - I loved his Imagine but his voice did crack a little. Plus he was in the bottom three last week.
Chris/Phil - Could go either way because there has to be a bottom three. In all of these weeks I never would have thought LaKisha had a greater chance of going home before these two.
