Phillip was the "vote for the worst" candidate, i have no idea why hollie was not in bottom 3. she's not that distinct that she'd have some niche audience voting for her.

IMHO ---Hollie was a Backlash vote to counteract the judges continuing unbridled criticism and shilling Jessica Sanchez !

H'mm interesting performances last nite . I think Colton slipped up especially with the second song BUT the litlle teeny boppers and preteens will probably keep him in .
So now it comes down to popularity --------------------buh bye Elise ( dammit the girl CAN sing )
Interesting reactions by the Judges -- they were quick to "praise " wink wink Holly probably so there would Be NO NEGATIVE vote against their pre- ordained favorite Be Be Chez -- oops that B Jessica
So we'll see ------- frankly they are all good at this point and many will have a fine career-- notably Phil/Phil, Skylar ( BOTH of whom have real stage presence and Energy) The otheres are good singers but need to ramp up some excitement

i was not overly impressed last night, though it could be said i wasn't watching intently.
i did think Hollie's opening number was very good. recall liking Elise's first song and Colton being a bit of a snooze.
in general the whole 2nd half of the show didn't hold my interest.
in general i'm growing tired of the artists coming out week after week and sounding like they did the week before. i like in years past where the producers/judges pushed the contestants to NOT be a 1 trick pony but rather show their ability to perform different styles. However, Scotty won it all last year doing that and Skylar is following in his foot steps - all country all the time - and the judges are encouraging it.

I here ya --
u have to believe the BEST advice is to be true to Who you are as an artist/performer and Smile a lot but don't overly concern yourself with the Judges - They have proven to be both fickle and often wrong PP and Skylar are sticking to what they have bcuz it WILL be 'commercial" after this is all over .
Whether they "WIN" this Game is inconsequential --What counts is that they stick around get more exposure and push the buttons of their TARGET market

He blew it himself and said it. He sucked. I think Holly is a very good singer but no stage presence like Skylar.
Jessica and Joh have to go next. Nails on a blackboard for me when I hear both especially Josh.
Warp Daddy

Yeah Puck i agree Josh has a tendency to OVERSING a song and his "runs" are more gutteral than i care for . His gospel roots are deep and that will appeal to many but it gonna be damn tough to beat to well know WGWG syndrome on AI ( White Guy with Guitar ). That and JLo gushing and gettin her panties all in a knot and her damn 'goosies" over Phil Phil and with Colton now gone
my prediction Phil Phil is also the clear choice on the female bopper market segment Skylar brings heat to the stage and has the chops and the stage presence and a HUGE crossover country /southern rock market segment going for her . So i 'm thinking it comes down to them and or maybe Jessica but her demographic doesn't seem to have the voting strength .
By now i'm asuming if no one screws up voice wise this is how it'll play out my $$ on PP or Skylar

again turned off with the over the top productions.
judges are obviously playing favorites.
tyler to singer 1 - you have to pick songs people know at this point in the competition, don't go with songs people can sing along with
tyler to singer 2 - it was great how you took a song nobody knows and ran with it.
rooting for hollie and elise but doubt either will win.
i don't care for Phil's singing but am getting a kick out of how he seems to purposefully do everything they tell him not to.

Tonites Bottom 3 :
Phillip - POOR song choice almost Painful to listen to .,
Elise -- same reason on 2 nd song
-- I really like them both but c'mon dudes U gotta get with the program at this stage of THE GAME.
and # 3 Jessica she couldn't do a Freddy Mercury song IF he POSSESSED her - sorry but that was ghastly
Skylar was smokin last nite and even tho i still think he has an overcompensation on "screaming n' screeching" Joshua dis ok and Lil Holly was "in the pocket" on her vocals .
Fans revenge comes home to roost tonite : Buh Bye Jessica if not her then Elise because she's "da ole Lady"
