yup, we've pretty much known it was going to be either Danny or Adam for quite a while now. it's obvious. both are capable performers, both seem to be better than david archuletta who performed last night. can't go wrong wiith either in my opinion. kris is ok, but not in their class. the girl, i don't get it, she just isn't as good as the 3 mentioned and matt should be out of the competition already, but no matter the order, matt than anoop or anoop than matt it was pretty much inevitible. this coming week, i think matt is gone.

"We've" known who will win since there was just shy of 12 people left on the show; right now this is just a competition to see who will be the other two people also on the stage during the finale.

Are they doing a final three this year?

Edit: Also, I had hopes that David Archuleta would be less dorky now than he was during the competition, but if anything I think he was even more of a dork. At least he didn't say, "Oh gosh."

The girls voice, Allison, is far more powerful than Danny's. She's awesome, people are going to vote her off because she isn't as attractive as some would like.

Allison's problem is her age.

Allison's problem imo is that she's great for her age, but not great overall. Her competitors have had many more years of singing and vocal maturing than her, and simply are better right now.

OK, here is how the breakdown SHOULD be

Adam
Allison
Kris
Danny
Matt
Anoop
Lil

The bottom 4 are getting very stale and copycat-ish. Danny is a great singer, but absolutely 0 variety...same with Lil. Anoop's songs are straight up boring. Kris really surpirsed me so far this season.

So far...so good 🙂
 
Danny was my fav at the start, but once Adam started doing his thing it was over. Danny's songs and voice all sound the same. It's a solid performance, it's just forgettable.
 
I thought Kris hit all of his notes and everything but it wasn't really that memorable. I wish he had made it a little darker and slower.

WTF. The judges are acting like he's the second coming. A unique approach to the song? Have they ever listened to the original? Bleh...
 
I'm not sure if this song type is going to let anyone really fly above the rest if they haven't done so already.
 
Allison (now 17 years old) is up now with 'Someone To Watch Over Me' by Sinatra (again).

ETA - I think she looks the best tonight that she's looked so far in the competition.
 
i'm tired of the new chick, can't recall the last time she said something that basically wasn't a rehash of what another already said.
