1. I thought it was horrible, personally.
Completely abysmal compared to the original.

30. Not her best.. But hell no one can do Janis Joplin well
I think she is amazinf for 17 and is definitely a rocker... but it was the wrong song.... If she does Janis it should have been BobbyMc
Her choices are pretty limited though Hrace Slick? Heart? Benetar?

6. Def. his best performance IMO
Allison was good too - not Janis or even Adam level - but remember, she just turned 17.

16. Agree - Kris was terrible IMO
Surprisingly, though, Danny wasn't so bad - and I thought I'd hate his take on hard rock.

19. Danny's solo performance....
was probably one of the worst I've ever seen on AI. I actually cringed and plugged my ears during that last note. Simon was being too kind by comparing it to a horror film.

I, however, might recommend saving your ears the pain of listening to it. Really...it was that bad.

I quickly googled the performance and here's the audio. It's just as bad the second time.

34. I so agree...
That last note wasn't even close to being right. I didn't hear "pitchy" mentioned once by the judges...but that is exactly what this performance was. I loved Danny last week...but this week was NOT his best.

but he didn't! It was just terrible.

I think they made it clear they should be the final two.

27. The final four has had upsets before
In season one, Tamyra Gray was expected to sail to victory but came in fourth. In season 5, Chris Daughtry was shockingly eliminated during the final four. I'm hoping for Danny to be this years shocking elimination. After his performance tonight, he may just be.

Adam is very talented. Probably the most talented Idol contestant ever.

Once again, I was blown away by his performance.

Funny...when I think of the song Ring of Fire, only Adam's version plays in my head.

46. I love Johnny Cash. I love his version of Ring Of Fire with the mariachi trumpets. However...
I also love Adam's version. It's different, it's hypnotic, it's crazy. I like it better than Dilana doing the same thing. It draws me in and mesmerizes me.

I think Johnny would approve too - he was never one for cookie-cutter performances.

Different is fine, but I thought he mauled the song. Ever since, he's been unique and good.

probably should get voting. I'm getting through way too many times.

49. So am I - no problems getting through.
I'm voting from all the phones in the house and texting.

I have never done that for any other performer, not even David Cook (I voted for Cook, but didn't go to such lengths!).

61. 17 now
It's too young for a crush right now - I think 19 is the lowest for that in most cases.

I don't think it makes you dirty to have some feelings - hopefully, you'd never act on them. :hi:

So that's probably making it easier to get through. I called 5 times for Adam and 5 for Allison.
