Time for American Idol Results for April 28, 2010. I missed the first part of the Rascal Flats performance but it is always a joy to see what happens. Ford video has to do with vampires should be interesting. Cool setup for the video. Poor Mike. LOL he was smart to order the xtra garlic pizza. 
They were able to joke at Ryan’s part in the new Shrek Film. Ryan will be splitting our top 6 into three groups of two.
Siobhan Magnus recap Simon gave comment last note sounded like you were giving birth. Is joined by Lee Dewyze Ellen loved your stamp and Simon thought it was the perfect choice for you.
Aaron Kelly found your wheelhouse according to Randy Jackson. Crystal Bowersox joins Aaron and was told last night that her performance was not one of the favorites.
Michael Lynche Kara loved how you put your mark on the song, Simon said it was wet and girly. Casey James joins Michael and consensus from last night is that it was your best performance to date.
Bottom Three are revealed to be Michael Lynche, Siobhan Magnus, and Casey James after a tense few minutes. Of the three the only one whom I personally feel should be there, based solely on last nights performance is Siobhan. For me the two performances that seemed to weigh in as lowest were Crystal and Siobhan. As I commented last night these were the only two that I felt fell short of their marks. The only reason for Siobhan is that she just did not seem to show the strength that the lyrics and song called for. Yes she made it her own however delivered what was in my mind delivered a weak character that belies the strength the song speaks of. There seemed to be no conviction in what you were singing and thus made it a poor performance. Again that is solely my opinion.
We just found out from Ryan next week is Sinatra.
Sons of Silvia are performing now and to critique them as I would the contestants , well there not doing bad. Having a bit of time trying to understand the lead as he tends to mush his words. Great tone and emotion, even without knowing the lyrics I’m enjoying the performance. Electric Violin don’t see enough those around anymore. Just noticed the lead has great vampire veins on his forehead if he ever wants to do a Ford Commercial. I need to look this group up as I do believe they would be a decent addition to any country fans collection.
Back from break and Ryan is flirting with the crowd again. At least this time it’s with a couple of ladies. Lady Antebellum is performing now. I love the gentle tone in her voice. Loving the entire arrangment from vocals to overall balance and composition. You definitely know how to best utilize dynamics. Feel there could be a bit of a stronger connection between both leads. The male singer seems to be conveying a lot more emotion. Now that were at the end the connection is there. I wish I know how to suggest to make the connection stronger sooner. There has to be a way to do it without necessarily facing the audience. Excellent performance overall and one that I would enjoy seeing.
After the break we’ll be back with Rascal Flats and Shakira for her song Gypsy. Harmonica intro is uniqe and and eye catcher. Beginning of the song the vocal seemed a bit rough but you were able to pull it together at the chorus and I started to enjoy it even more. Love the duet with Rascal flats. Emotion and connection with the audience, band and partners seems elegant and solid. Wonderful combination. Loved the harmonica at the end. Great performance.
Back to the results we have Mike, Casey, and Siobhan. Mike indicates tonight is different as everyone had a good night last night. Ryan reveals Mike is safe leaving it down to Casey and Siobhan. They love stalling for time by plugging in irritating commercials. Come on it’s time already let’s here who’s going home. Alright here we go we are back from break and Siobhan is going home while Casey James is safe.
I’m satisfied it seems to fit what I saw from the performers last night. Siobhan stay true to yourself and you are a star keep going and I look forward to hearing your name in future tied to good things and big dreams.
