None of them because I appreciate a real artist's talent for creating original lyrics.  They are all overhyped karaoke singers.

I heard tonight that auditions start on August 8th.  I'm not sure when the show will air.  Not sure if I'm gonna vote this time, might not do too much good.  Still disappointed that Chris didn't win.  He was so good.  I am glad for Taylor and wishes him well, I also liked my hometown hero who came in 3rd place.

I love Chris Kat and Pickler. Taylor I knew from the start that he would go far. I think he is going to make it to the final 3 or 4, not win. Chris and Kat are just too good and liked by too many people.

My favorites (in numerical order number 1 being the best) are:\n\n1. Chris Daughtry\n2. Taylor Hicks\n3. Paris\n4. Katherine McPhee\n5. Elliot\n6. Kelly Pickler\n\nSo Chris and Taylor are deffinitely my favorites and even though I'm from North Carolina - I really dont think Kelly Pickler is too great at all.

I think it will be either her or Chris. I am leaning towards Chris because I like a little hard rock. But she is very beautiful and has a really good voice, and she seems to be improving all the time. I also like Taylor, but he would be third for me.

MY BOTTOM THREE:\n\nAce\nMandisa\nParis\n\n I really hope ace gets the boot, i cant stand him... matter of fact, i cant stand any of these three- so ill be happy when one of them goes home. I like Taylor, although his song sucked last night, and katherines not bad. \n\n\n     <3  24  <3

I say Taylor because he is different and the ONLY one up there with soul and who feels every song.\n\nBottom 2 next week:  Elliott and Katherine.  Elliott is out. (but I wish Katherine would leave).

yes, i will. elliot is the one i would like to see win the most, even though i like chris and paris and taylor more, because i know they will still be good even if they dont win. i am not sure about elliot though, plus he seems like a really cool guy AND he has a great voice and a unique style.\n-sorry im rambling on again.

that was Clay? OH OK! I was confused who that was, but happy for the kid to sing that song with Clay. I loved the show. I liked it when Dionne Warwich appeared. I like to see the people voted off perform. I like Elliot and of course I like Chris, but it was nice to see the ones from several weeks ago.

I was shocked that the 2 favorites, Kat and Chris were both in the bottom two, let alone that Chris got voted off.  I thought that they were the 2 that best deserved to be in the finals: Chris because he was the best from the beginning and Kat because she had made the most progress, is at least close to Chris in talent now and she has the Idol look and personality.  Chris is more of a rocker and the fans tend to shy away from them a bit.  Chris did have the disadvantage of being one of 3 guys and Kat is the only gal.  Girl fans are so divided between all the guys that it was just a matter of numbers as to the fact a guy would go this week.  I thought it was a poor choice of themes at this stage of the game to have an Elvis theme.  This was Taylor's forte and was very unfair to Kat especially, but also to Chris.  Elliot really stepped up though and he has also improved quite a bit since the beginning of the competition.  Taylor is the novelty factor and I'm shocked he is still there.  I am still hoping for Kat to win, I like her style, her abilities and her personality.

1. Elliot...I think he has a really great voice\n\n2. Taylor...good voice, very original, but I can't stand to watch him sing.  His face makes him look like he's in pain when he hits the high notes and his dancing is just...well...bad.\n\n3. Katherine...her singing is just so average and not idol worthy.  Paris was much better then her.  I haven't heard one song by Kat that I can actually say I like\n\nChris was my fav...I miss him

I can't stand Taylor...I know it.  Anyway, I hope Elliot wins.  I don't care for Katharine, she's boring and forgettable.  Doesn't seem sincere either.

What I think will be good about this week and the "American Songbook" is that it should showcase the good voices and make the mediocre voices obvious.  I think Katherine would do very well with "Someone to Watch Over Me", Taylor could try "What a Wonderful World" or "As Time Goes By".  I am a bit nervous for Chris, but he did very well with his country song, so hopefully he will come through again. I think that Kellie may have a hard time, but she did very well with Queen, so who knows? Elliot should be in his element this week, so I expect him to do well.  He could do "The Way You Look Tonight" or "I Only Have Eyes for You".  Paris will also probably be fine, this seems like a type of music that will suit her.
