- First up was Lee DeWyze who I think is finally gaining more confidence up there on the stage. I liked his version a lot! He changed it up just the right amount to make it sound like it was his song. He does pull some weird faces like Simon said, but so did Kris Allen. Kris Allen was a side singer,,, well he probably still is,, ha. Um, he will be safe.
- Old Big Mike was up next and though he did a good job, I still do not jump up and down for him. He'll be in the bottom 3 just mainly because he doesn't have as many fans as the other contestants.
- Casey James had his moment last night. I loved just listening to him sing,, without the guitar solo's and cheesy songs. He really is a talent and I am wondering why we haven't talked more about Casey this season. I hope he's safe.
- Crystal was up next and had the most 'alright' performance of the night. Nothing stood out to me and it was sort of like a regular old coffee house performance. She's still awesome and authentic, but it didn't get me going. I do understand that coming up with 12 performances for the season would be daunting.
- Aaron Kelly had a good night too. He still sounds a bit nasally to me and like his mouth isn't opening up all the way, but his performance was solid.
- Siobhan Magnus is bordering on the irritating/excruciating line for me. She was a little breathy in her performance, maybe cause she did a lap around the whole building while she was singing. Her glory notes were a bit off, but she did try with all her might.
My Power rankings for last night's performances are:
- Casey James
- Lee Dewyze
- Mike Lynche
- Aaron Kelly
- Crystal Bowersox
- Siobhan Magnus

I loved Casey! Especially the first part of his song when he was singing those lower notes so nice and smooth. I finally have a definite favorite in the competition.
I absolutely HATED Siobhan's performance! I thought it was awful. She doesn't have the right kind of voice for that type of song, and I thought she was dragging behind the beat the whole time. I was so shocked when the judges loved it. Or at least they said they did. Shania didn't look like she was loving it! By the way, I want Shania to be my big sister. I love everything about her. She really does glow! But I thought it was inadvertently rude of Ryan to comment on how nice and white Shania's teeth are while talking to CRYSTAL!!
I love the song Crystal sang...when Shania sings it! But I hope she's not in danger because of her performance. As long as she and Casey are safe, I don't really care who goes home. I love Casey, and Crystal's so good that she just deserves to be there, even though she's not my personal favorite. I actually hope Mike goes home tonight. Well, Lee, really, but who am I kidding? They LOVE him. They will say anything to get his voice on the radio!
I was so happy Siobhan left! I hated her, seriously. But I was sad that Casey was in the bottom 2. Not fair. He sang his heart out. Aaron needs to go home next. Or Mike. I really want the top 3 to be Lee, Crystal, and Casey. We'll see.
Those are my top three too. The rest can go, especially Aaron! Maybe I should stop ranting about Aaron, and then he'll finally go. If Aaron wins American Idol I am never watching the show again! I really like Casey a lot for the first time this week. He was my fav of the night.
