Let it Be

Tonight is Lennon/McCartney night. Together they did more than 35 songs. Wow! what can I say? The Beatles night on American Idol has historically been the turning point in the competition.

So how did everyone do? Was it a Hards Day Night? or a Ticket Ride to Ride?

Aaron, our preschool favorite. He did a Long and Winding Road. Not his best. Big song by a little guy. But there's going to be a lot worse than this tonight. Will be around another week. Preschoolers and their teachers love him.

Katie, I haven't watched before the final 10. People talk about how bad she is. I love her. She did Let It Be. She was smart not to change it up too much. I liked it very much.

Andrew - Can't Buy Me Love - this is where I've gone wrong for a few years. I've tried to buy it, with no luck. I have to say Andrew had no luck either. This was not good. He's trying to buy it instead of earn it.

Michael - doing Elenor Rigby one of my favorite songs ever. He was amazing. This was one of the few Beatles songs that it's OK to change it up a little. This was hot. It was incredible. It takes big balls to change up a Beatles song.

Crystal - people that have been watching all season sent me texts that she is the best. "Come Together," this is what I have been telling my dates for years, but I digress, this was hot. She jazzed it up and it worked. Tonight I agree with the texts. It was sexy and very up to date.

Tim - All My Lovin - OK, he is cute. And in prior years, a smile and sexy eyes would have got you a long way. Tim has gone further than anyone would have imagined. I've mentioned Trey before. Some of you know him. Anyway I mention him because his mom now texts. What I'm saying is that in prior years on American Idol only 15 year old girls were texting. Now Trey's mom is texting. So I'd say even though it was OK tonight, Trey's mom now texts, I'd say he's gone tonight. Of course I'm assuming that Trey's mom is watching American Idol, and she votes, AND she isn't turned on by 15 year old really HOT boys.

Casey - the total opposite of Tim. I always get a crush on someone every year and this year it's Casey, but I have to be totally unbiased. His rendition of Jealous Guy was totally amazing. Not ashamed to say I am a Jealous Guy. And by the way did you see his eyes?

Siobhan - Across the Universe. It was beautiful. But I'm not sure the voters were awake to vote. She looked good tonight. Friends who have been watching all year tell me she is really good. I did like her tonight, but it was kind of boring. But way better than last week.

Lee - Hey Jude. You can't type the words without singing along. He took command of the song and the stage. Not his best performance. He might be in the bottom 3 tonight.

My choice for bottom 3 are:
Lee
Andrew
Tim

A boy goes home tonight.

It actually is getting better - I can see 3 or 4 of these people being the American Idol. This means they are all stepping up. Tonight when the results come in I think we are going to be surprised. Unless Tim gets voted off, I think the judges will veto the vote and let the looser in for another week.

Until Next Time - Wise OUT
