American Idol

American Idol was good last night. Andrew Lloyd Webber was the mentor for the show this week and it was a very tricky show for the contestants because Broadway songs are very hard to sing. Andrew Lloyd Webber is a British composer of musical theater so the contestants had to choose a song from a musical.

Of course I thought that David Cook was the absolute best of the night. I didn’t know what type of song he was going to sing from a musical but he ended up picking “Music of the Night” from “The Phantom of the Opera” and I thought he was amazing. He didn’t change the song into a rock song like he usually does, he just sang it the way it was sang in the “Phantom of the Opera” and he was awesome. If he doesn’t win this whole competition I will be shocked. He is so talented and proved last night that he can sing anything from a rock song to a Broadway musical and still sound great.

My other favorite of the night was Carly Smithson. She sang “Jesus Christ Superstar” and I thought she did a great job. It was actually my favorite performance she has ever done on the show and I also thought she looked great.

So my choices for bottom TWO tonight are:

Brooke White-I don’t want her to be in the bottom three cause she is one of my favorites but she really screwed up last night. She sang “You must love me” from the musical “Evita” and she started the song and forgot the lyrics so she had to start over and then after that happened it was almost like her nerves got to her and she fell apart.

Jason Castro-He sang “Memory” and I actually liked his performance and thought it was one of his best so far but the judges hated it. They thought it was the wrong song choice for him.

I honestly don’t know who will be the third….Everyone else did a great job; even Syesha who I do not really think is that great. Tonight will be a very interesting show.
