Have you seen this video of the tryouts for the British version of American Idol, "Britain's got Talent"? Absolutely amazing. Check out the rest of his videos if you like the first...same webpage.

Assuming this week is 80's week i think young David should sing a Rick Astley song (perhaps "Together Forever"). Same sort of powerful voice.

Anyone have any picks yet for who will go Thursday for the American Idol men? I taped the AI show last night as I was busy watching Blade: the Series on DVD. I am a big Mercury Girl-- Jill Wagner-- and horror movie/TV show fan. So, I have not actually watched the men in AI perform just yet.

For the men tonight, believe that voters probably least voted for Luke Menard and Chikezie Eze.

Have not watched the women from last night on American Idol yet today. Was watching Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium on DVD or at least the first part of it. Was in a state of wonder though with some of the details in that movie. Mr. Magorium sure looked good for his age. :joke:

Anyone have any ideas about who will go? I am not saying who should go just who the voters probably voted least for during the past two nights for men and women on AI?

For the women: Kady and Kristy

For the men: Luke and Jason

Russ Boston? I will have to view the videotape of the AI ladies to see if I agree with you. Think that Kristy can get by for a while though with the male viewers on looks alone though as some of the AI men can do the same with the women.

Would be really surprised if Luke Menard lasts another week though.

After finally getting to watch the women on videotape from last night's American Idol; unfortunately, you may be right Russ Boston with your picks for the women on whom gets cut. Tend to agree with you on that score as these two female performances--Katy and Kristy-- seemed the weakest.

Well, I agree with all the people cut today except Danny. I found him funny, entertaining, different to say the least and he really had a wonderful voice. I so glad Amanda is still in. I think she's a great natural rocker. She's a natural. But, I still love little David A. He's such a sweetie and had a rich, pure voice.

Good show last night.

I was concerned that Danny would become the next Sanjaha(sp?).
He does have a good voice but I think to quirky to continue on.

This season we have an exciting group, they are all so good and can only get better. The cuts are going to be very hard to watch.

[Russ_Boston]

Agree with the Sanjah comparison. He couldn't win anyway (voice wise) so let's avoid the agony of the Howard Stern 'vote for the worst' situation. The rest of the gang will now be judged on talent with the possible exception of Kristy for the women and Michael for the men who are more sizzle than substance IMHO.

[beady]

Russ: I agree Michael is just eye candy, voice and stage presence does not compare to others.
Kristy has potential but will she use it!!!!!

Got 2 out of the 4 right this time for my picks for cuts. There seem to be a lot of variables going on here along with the singing each week comes the VotefortheWorst web-site, fan bases for each singer, local community loyalties towards each contestant, and the eye candy feature. Simon Cowell is another influence as if he attacks a contestant too harshly it seems to pile up a lot of votes for that person.

I think Amanda rocks. Unfortunately she seems to have a "dark" personality.
