    I think Jenelle has STUNNING moments in every performance since the final 12 started. I just feel like there are unpolished moments too, she is however FUN, something that Kree is not so much.

     Dear, @KreeAI12, welcome, officially, to Country music! Why are the judges not standing up after that? #incredible #lovethatsong

     This is a copy of what Carrie Underwood tweeted to Kree on twitter minutes ago

    I really hope that the judges are building Candace up for a great big let down... we all know that even if she does win it doesn't mean she will have a successful career.  That is one that is hard made after American Idol.

    It is taking forever, I thought it was just my old dinosaur of a computer.  That was beautiful for Candice, she  is truly a talented singer, very much a blues singer.  She will be in the top three, as will Kree and IMHO Janelle.

    Good night ladies, see you tomorrow, when we get our results, please let Lazaro go home, they need to figure out a way to silence that vote for the worst site.  Will keep you in prayer Renee.  Always a pleasure ladies, it is remarkable to me how much we agree.

    USA TODAY (15 Minutes ago)

    And, so, a girl will find herself at the bottom of this week's voting. And it doesn't matter which one, because the judges will save her.

    If they don't, they run the risk of creating a scenario next week where Arbos does get voted off and the judges are forced to save him to keep the show on schedule. And nobody's going to let that happen

    For those of you that love Jennifer Hudson she will be starring in "Call Me Crazy" on the Lifetime network on April 20th along with Melanie Griffith and others... It looks to be an excellent movie!

    Thanks for the information Sheila!

    I just checked dialidol.com and it shows Candice in 1st and Lazaros in 2nd, Kree, 3rd, Angie, 4th, Amber 5th and Janelle in 6th Yell  I hope this is not correct, but last week it had Burnell last and Janelle in 6th and they were indeed the bottom 2.  Ugh! Of course Lazaros ended up being in the top 3 last week and he didn't show to be the top 3 on dialidol.com  Let's hope this is soooo wrong.  Please!!!

    The thing about a Burt Bacharach song is the melody.  When I watched last night, all of the females inserted vocal runs with as many grace notes as possible into those songs, and it took away from the actual melody of the song.  I know it is meant as a showcase of their voices, but it rubbed me the wrong way.  For this segment alone, which did not wow me, I give Amber the top honors.

    The second half...I liked Amber again (she's no Beyonce, but the song had some pep,) Candice (I actually liked her version of this Cure cover better than Adele's,) and Angie (she is so much better at the piano, but I agree with the judges that she has to develop that ease when she steps away from it too.)

    Sorry to all my Kree-lovin' sisters (and she is my second favorite too) but I was just not feeling it from her this night.

    And Lazaro...Sealed

    Good Morning......

    OK if 2 girls are at the bottom ...they will be saved but next week they have to eliminate 2 contestants

    Lazaro might become our next AI...InnocentSealed

    The producers have to be reeling from this turn of events, can they eliminate the block voting?  I think it would spell the demise of the show if Lazaro were to win.

    Hi sheila, great idea!!!  I am thinking of building the ark here, has been raining in the proverbial cats and dogs for 2 days straight and to continue for 2 more days.  Cannot wait till tonight, hope Renee's poll was mistaken, I couldn't stand him being in the top three again, and Janelle as 6, I would cry, boy do we get involved in this show and not in a good way.

    last night: 1) Candice 2) Kree 3) Amber 4) Angie 5) Janell 6) Lazaro

    Lazaro must go tonight!

    It used to be the save was only good until it was down to 5, so unless they use it tonight, I think it's lost to the judges.

    I know most of you dislike NM but I enjoy her SOOOOOOOOOOOO much more than Randy or Mariah!

    Hi Joni, hi sheila, see you in a bit, I'm a little anxious about what we are about to see....

    I thought Candice was the best last night and Lazaro - ugh. When I heard he was going to be singing the Carpenters I thought, "Oh, no! He's going to ruin it for me!"  Oh and he did!

    If tonight is the last night to use the save, wouldn't it be funny if (somehow) Lazaro was last and they said, "No, we're not going to use it."  Laughing

    I like Nikki Minaj, too, Eph.  I think she's funny and she certainly isn't afraid to criticize. The show definitely needs that!

    Well, I DVR the show, so I guess I'll talk to you ladies tomorrow! Have fun!

    I actually think it's ok that Angie is trying different stuff, she's young and finding herself.

    I think she enjoys doing a lot of different styles. She just (IMO) doesn't quite have the artistic identity that Kree and Candace and even Jenelle and sort of Amber have.

    I really waver on Amber, I thought she sounded AMAZING with Candace and it made me long for the days of girl groups.

    The girls group numbers have been a real highlight this season.

    I just think Amber is going to have a hard time beating Candace for R&B. It's kind of interesting each pair has an older gal who is more "old school" and a younger "cuter" counterpart. I think there is a place for all 4 in the business, though Amber is still sort of a work in progress like Angie.

    Thank heavens Lazaro out! Now it gets interesting. I think Candace and Kree are solid top two, and I keep changing my mind on the rest of them.

    Hi ladies I'm a little late getting here, our storms have passed and I finally plugged my computer back up... ready for Scotty to sing his new single.  I'm thinking that if Lazaro doesn't go home this week and Janelle does I may not watch anymore.  Because then it is no longer about singing it is about let's ruin this show, which totally sucks donkeys.  The producers have said for years they can override voters, well now is the time to do so.  I really think that they are not going to, because with Lazaro staying after such poor performances last week, I read online that last night was one of their highes rated shows this whole season.  People tuned in to see is he (Lazaro) was going to butcher another song and they were expecting ratings to be high tonight as well because people would tune in to see if he made top 3 again or went home.

    How wild is it to be nervous about a show, but it's true.  Cookielegal - I agree with you completely, my top three Kree, Janelle and Candice, would that it were so.   Scotty, such a pleasure, he has definitely matured in his singing style.
