Casey Abrams made me blush! Ha. I was surprised by that.

We also agree on Scotty - I'm not a big country person, but he just owned it up there and was great.

He is totally awesome. Easily the best of the night. And Scotty, the 2nd best, just as easily.

Since everything was pre-empted tonight, I watched Idol.

I liked Casey too but I don't know how I would have felt about him had it been the first time I'd seen him. He was aggressive but I love his song choice and I love that he honored the Screaming Jay rendition.

I preferred the second half of guys more than the first group. Paul is quirky and even though I didn't like the song, I like his style.

Jacob has a great gospel thing going for him and even though I don't think he'll win, I enjoyed what he put out tonight.

My favorite of the night has to be Scotty, though. That's pure old school country. It's pretty much the only kind of country I can stand. I'm not a fan of much of the new pop country stuff that has been released recently. Anyway, it was such a throwback that I found it refreshing. He felt authentic and it's a good season for him since I doubt he'd be able to cover the genres like had been required in seasons past.

I think she won over some people seeing him for the first too (see butterfly. He was fantastic.

I don't know what it is, but Paul's voice bugs me. Ah well. I can tell he's good, but I just don't like his tone. Jacob just doesn't do it for me, I'm not fond of his version of gospel singing.

Scotty was FANTASTIC. So, so good!

I think (hope, since I love them when they are actual REAL themes, and not specific artists) they are still doing themes, just not specific artists.

I loved Scotty McCreery. LOVED. I could listen to him alllll daaaay. :D His voice is a tall glass of lemonade on a hot day [/Paula] Casey was fabulous, as well -- that was like...controlled chaos throughout (and that ending? I got chills. ;)

Being honest, though, were he not my favorite going into this, I'm not sure I'd have him this high.I really like him, but this song...did nothing for me. I didn't understand why he chose it, I don't think it showcased his voice or really the kind of artist he wants to be. I mean...I don't believe that kid wants to be Jim Morrison. I just don't. ;p ( ... )

Hah! Yeah, Brett, don't know what you were thinking, but I still love him. Hopefully, he makes it through and gets a chance to show off what he really can do.

I really thought Jovanny sang that song well -- I was kind of amazed at the "meh" it got. Sure, the song is played out, but no more than "Superstition."

I know right? We may be the only two though. :(

It will be very interesting to see if "America" listens to Randy like they listened to Simon

I agree; I'm curious to see if we'll see that play out. Hmmm...

Casey, Scotty, Brett, and James are my favorites. I really love their voices, but especially Casey's well worn, broken in, sort of old and used voice. I love that quality in a man's voice. I haven't had a chance to watch the girls yet.

Well, you'll be mostly happy with the guys who made it in. :)
