We're down to the final ten. They sang songs from the year they were born. (GAWD, am I old!) Here is how last night went down...
Ramiele
"Alone"
Damn, this girl sucks. This performance was a screechy mess. Definitely time for her to go home.
Jason
"Fragile"
A very nice job. He's got some talent and I think he very well could make it to the top 4.
Syesha
"If I Were Your Woman"
Like Ramiele, the big-voice songs aren't her strong suit. She was better than Ramiele, but still...not a great performance.
Chikeze
Never mind what the judges said, this was one of best performances of the night...a SUPERB R&B performance. A pleasant surprise.
Brooke
"Every Breath You Take"
I liked her take on this song. Her style is very modern without losing the spirit of the original songs. Very nice.
Michael
"We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions"
Brave choice, but he actually pulled it off. The background singers actually sucked on this! Good job. He's a natural rocker.
Carly
"Total Eclipse of the Heart"
Safe song choice, but a very well done, polished performance.
David Archuletta
"You're the Voice"
Technical foul: This song was released in 1986 in Australia (however, it could have been released in the U.S. in 1990). That said, David was superb as always.
Kristy Lee Cook
"God Bless the USA"
I want her to go home for the simple fact that she sang this schmalzy song.
David Cook
"Billie Jean"
HOLY CRAP! What a knock-em-dead, stupendous take on Michael Jackson's #1 classic. Absolutely, positively the best performance of the last 2 or 3 weeks. David really rocked it tonight!
The best of the week? David Cook - FAR AND AWAY.
Who should go home? Ramiele.
