My 5th Judge Opinion.
Theme:
Motown
#1 - Matt Giraud
Yeah, Baby!! Let's get IT on!! Started on the piano, moved to the stage. Very comfortable in his skin - Justin Timberlake-ish. Nice vocals. Song showcased his voice.
#2 - Kris Allen
Have I told you this guy just bugs me. He always seems so karaoke/high school musical/cruise ship. Jim Carrey's younger brother.
#3 - Scott MacIntyre
Oh dear lord. I want someone to come take him home. Cheeeeeesy!! All he needed was to pull out a tambourine. How much more can I take till I puke.
#4 - Megan Joy
Train wreck. She made 'For once in my life' sound like the theme from Love Boat. Yikes, girl! MOTOWN week and you pick THAT song with a JAZZY voice? This could get you going home, my friend - and I have even more mad love for you than Randy!
#5 - Anoop Desai
It's time Anoop purchased a pair of $200 jeans. Those $50 GAP jeans aren't doing anything for me. Voice was sweeeeeeeeeet though.
#6 - Michael Sarver
It was a white boy singing a black boy song. But I enjoyed it. Maybe I'm a Las Vegas loungey kinda girl.
#7 - Lil Rounds
It wasn't a heat wave for me. It was a madness wave. Lil developed some sort of manic lisp for this rendition. I can't keep from wanting the song to be over. And that flapper outfit? With a 60's song? Really? No.
#8 - Adam Lambert
Wow. Oh. My. Freaking. God. Standing ovation from Smokey Robinson. End the competition now. Give the man the title. He is ah-mazing! That last part. WOW!! He sang that entire song in falsetto. And he is beautiful. I love me some Adam.
#9 - Danny Gokey
I wasn't ready for this. Whew. This song did nothing to showcase Danny's voice. You can't pick fun songs if they don't showcase your vocal abilities. I'm with Simon - clumsy and amateurish. Never go on after a better singer...But I do love you Danny.
#10 - Allison Iraheta
She did a great job. There were some mumbly parts, but she did a great job at making a man's song her own. Allison is another one who bugs me. But I will admit this girl can SANG.
There ya have it!
The view from my couch.
And then there were 9....
Michael Sarver went home

You may be right that Adam is a "better" singer...he seems to be able to do a lot with his voice. But the tone of his voice and his whole ~gig~ is so not my cup of tea. I still pick Danny! And it's about time they stopped taking it ~so~ easy on the "CCAAAWWW, CCCAAAWWW" girl. Matt always does a great job (I, personally, think he has a Michael Buble thang' going on)...but why is it that I never remember him?
