The American public is who is doing the choosing not the music industry so it isn't really a case of who is better but who is more popular.

I like them all but I want Crystal or Lee to win.

I absolutely agree! I am still watching, however, and I think Crystal may lose out because she 'looks different' with the dreds. Such a shame if it happens again.

If voting were based solely on performances of last night, Lee edged it out IMHO.

Casey failed to deliver on the first song--except for the guitar which was excellent, 2nd song was sweet and good but now the "judges" are looking for that BIG vocal moment/performance. It's a shame that the judges pick didn't take their own criticism into account when it came to choosing that song. Go figure.

Crystal just didn't hit it. 1st song was lousy, 2nd was 'OK' but much too short to deliver the full impact of that song.

Lee did a decent good job with the 1st song. Sounded good. 2nd song, I'll say is just getting old on the show. That makes twice now this season (Tim Urban sang it previously.) Jason Castro sang it too and left his mark on it was it last season or two seasons ago.

Just seems Lee has the more radio sounding voice. Even tho' America votes the producers have the ultimate say and that's who I think they will make sure wins.

I think Casey goes tonight too.

Funny - I watched the auditions - and the only performance I really remember is the old(er) man doing "Pants on the Floor"

Oh shoot--I didn't watch last night! Sigh... hubby's listneing to a Yankee game on the radio and I'm doing grades. Let me know who's out!! :-D

I got everything done and got to watch... glad Casey is out. He's such a wonderful guy, but man I don't think he can sing. Shocked he got that far. Was it because he's cute? :roll:

I loved watching their homecomings... always makes me cry. :roll:

It'll be interesting to see who wins.

I watched it tonight! Oh my gosh--if Crystal doesn't win it's just WRONG. Her last song was a-m-a-z-i-n-g. I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I still just don't think Lee's voice is anything special. What am I missing????

I agree, Karla. Lee is good, nice looking, but doesn't seem that "special" to me. Crystal just is so amazing. I really want to see her win.

Rhonda 05-25-2010 05:25 PM

I agree I think Crystal will win it.
