Its gonna be Carly and David A in the finals, no doubt. The guy that did Elenor Rigby though did good last night, I liked his rendition of it.

I was flipping between that and the bruins, until they started to suck, then I went to idol. this is the first season I've watched, and I gotta admit it's entertaining. as a singer it's kinda fun to watch these kids because some are freakin' good. others make me laugh like the gay stripper guy

Usually it's Paula who is half-loaded. I watch the show- it's gets me through the winter and counts toward "quality time" with my girl. I like to stock up on the quality time this time of year just in case I am pre-occupied with "other" things a few months from now.

Agree that there is some talent this season. I am picking Sayesha to win it all. Probably gonna come down to her and David A.

Well looky here.

I knew you would get hooked. By the way, that kid is the real deal. David Cook, remember the name.

The wife agrees. The young spanish kid was good too. He'll be singing on Carnaival Cruise lines though. Cook will be selling out stadiums.

Yeah he is Matt.

I have to admit, I really like this show. I really like music, so it's no surprise. I think the best part is watching them develop into great talents from nowhere. Even the runners up, top 3-4 have gone on to do very well, some better than the winners. Remember Taylor Hicks??? Niether do I, but Daughtry is a legitimate star now.

This year is tough, there are quite a few with a lot of talent, David Cook, David Archuletta, and Brooke White are my picks for top three.

I can't believe I just posted my thoughts on American Idol in such a public forum... I feel so dirty.

Gordon same here after I publicly chastized (sp) Bronko about it. Now I watch it with the wife. It is addicting. Once again Peter you were right. The show has an amazingtrack record. Swift, Underwood, Daughtry, Pickler ( I love her and her new breasts), and the girl who won the first year. Impressive.

I am in a pool $25 a person 12 people blind draw for the twelve finalists, $300 to the winner. I Drew Carly, the Irish lass. She is good, but she didn't do herself any favors last night.

That being said I would also pick David Cook and Brooke White, but my third pick would be Michael Johns.

I watched David Cook's performance this morning on youtube, and I was really impressed with it.. My personal favorite Carly, she hasn't impressed me since she did Come Together. But I still have hope for her.

I still say Daughtry should of won, but he's doing a heck of a lot better where he is now, than any of the idol winners, besides Carrie Underwood, and Kelly Clarkson.

This kid is the Dark horse. This was from an earlier round, I thought he did a great job with it.
