1. Syesha Mercado: I thought her vocals were strong and lovely, but her fan support may be "Vanishing."
2. David Archuleta: Wow, his leather pants really distracted me, in a bad way. I didn't think his singing was quite as great as the judges did. But I "Believe" he worked it out.
3. David Cook: He totally gets an A for originality, though his rendition didn't quite reach the level of "Billie Jean." Still, Cook will "Always Be My Baby."
4. Jason Castro: I liked the little Latin influence on his song -- it forced him to actually sing, too, which is great. "I Don't Wanna Cry," but I don't wanna sing with him, either.
5. Carly Smithson: Um, Paula, Carly did not show vocal restraint at all. She yelled to the point where her voice was strained. We could do "Without You."
6. Kristy Lee Cook: Oh, KLC, "Forever" will your singing suck the life out of a room. Actually, I didn't hate her version of it. But she still pales compared to everyone else.
7. Brooke White: She needs a "Hero." Singing that song on piano turned it into an Elton John-esque tune. Love Elton, but it's not what's needed here.
