Tonight the final 10 are going to sing songs from the 21st Century - pretty big choice there so it should be good.


Lisa Tucker
Singing - Because of you by Kellie Clarkson

Don't know what it is but I don't really like her, I don't think this is very good - it went off at the end I thought. Randy says it was just ok not that good. Paula says it was a tough choice to pick she should have made it her own but she didn't. Simon says the song was too big for her voice, it didn't work.


Kellie Pickler
Singing - Suds in the Bucket by Sara Evans

What a surprise Kellie's picked a country song, this is definatly what she should be singing she looks comfortable on stage. Randy says he likes the country roots but it wasn't exciting enough. Paula says she is way better than that song. Simon says wrong song choice.


Ace Young
Singing Drops of Jupiter by Train

I actually like the original of this song so lets see what he can do - I have to say that it's ok, but he still dosen't have a strong voice. Randy says wrong song for him and he didn't sing it well. Paula says it wasn't her favourite but he did it well. Simon says it wasn't a great vocal and was quite karaoke actually.


Taylor "The Silver Fox" Hicks
Singing Trouble by Ray laMontagne

Don't know the song but I quite like how he's singing it. Randy says it wasn't great choice cos it didn't give him a chance to show off. Paula say it's nice to see him stand and sing a song instead of performing. Simon says excellent vocal he quite liked the song but he thinks the styling is very 'Clay Aitken'!!


Mandisa
Singing - Wanna praise you by Shackles?

Don't really like this at all. Randy says yep you can sing but he dosen't like the song again. Paula says people are joining the church of mandisa. Simon says it was a bit indulgent and he didn't get it.


Chris Daughtry
Singing - What if by Creed

Yep Chris is in his comfort zone and he's doing it well, I think. Randy says he liked the song choice but not his best vocal. Paula says she is one of his biggest fans. Simon says he is also being indulgent - he must start showing a different side to him because this is American Idol and Creed wouldn't be seen dead on the show.


Katharine McPhee
Singing The voice Within by Christina Aguilera

It's Ok, not my favourite from her. Randy says it was a good song choice but didn't bring anything new to it. Paula says it was her best. Simon says it was the best tonight (so far) - and almost as good as Christina WOW. Shows what I know hey!!!


Bucky Covington
Singing - Real Good Man by Tim MacGraw

It's Ok but I don't think Bucky is good enough now - not that he's been the worst tonight. Randy says right kind of song for him he likes it better. Paula says is was good but watch his diction. Simon says he couldn't understand what he said - and that he was winging it.


Paris Bennett
Singing Work it out by Beyonce

She can sing I just don't really like her - sorry all. Randy says it was fearless and it was the bomb. Paula says with moves like that the pussycat dolls will want her. Simon says it was precocious like a little girl pretending to be Beyonce whoopee!!


Elliott Yamin
Singing - I don't want to be by Gavin DeGraw

Not as good as Bo Bice's version last year, I think. Randy says he can sing. Paula says he is one funky white boy. Simon says good song, great vocals hideous arrangement.



WOW well not the best tonight the weakest for me tonight where Lisa, Kellie, Bucky and Mandisa.


The best where again Chris and Katharine.


I think Lisa or Bucky will go tomorrow.
