Well, it was heckuva way to start the Finals competition. I expected to hear some awesome interpretations and some duds. and was not disappointed. One performance has us rolling with laughter (and if you saw the show, you'll know which one I mean).

Syesha - Not one of my favorite Beatle tunes but she did an OK job with it. By virtue of a couple of other performance I think she'll be around another week.

Chikezie - What can I say. One of my favorite earlier Beatle songs he did with an A+ performance. Simply outstanding.

Ramiele - I could have sworn the judges suggested she pick it up a bit, tempo-wise. She didn't. Maybe she doesn't know how. I nodded off during this one.

David H. - Not a great week for him and not a good song choice either. May be on the chopping block.

Carly - Another performance I really liked.

David C. - I knew he would do Eleanor Rigby as if I were going to rock it, this is the song I would have done. I was hoping for just a little more but I gave him a B+ tonight.

Jason - I think the same of his performances as that of Ramiele. I think he is stuck in the balladeer role. Not that that's a bad thing but, for me it gets old quickly.

Brooke - I liked her take on Let It Be. I gave it a solid B.

Amanda - I did not care for her this week. I think she is becoming too predictable and repetitive. Yeah, that's her thing but she better change it up once or twice or she's gone, if not this week.

Michael - One of my least favorite Beatle songs, he did nothing to change my mind on it.

Christy - You have got to be kidding me!! Sorry, but this did not work at all. AT ALL!! I was in tears from laughter watching this one. You can't turn this Beatle classic into a country jig no matter how hard you try. She's gone.

David A. - This did not work for me either. I was trying to think of a song I thought might work for him. I came up with a few but they were all slower numbers and the judges had suggested that he pick it up a bit as well. Even if he di blow the lines several times, he's nowhere in danger.

Leaving us tomorrow will be Christy and.....either Michael or David H. I think they will be saying goodbye to two but I'm not sure.

Wouldn't it be cool if they had a surprise guest tomorrow night - like McCartney!!??

Only one goes this week.

Spoiler
Kristy should have gone LAST week. Even VFTW did not have the gall to support her and is supporting Amanda. Kristy Lee is toast.
