Top 11(4-1) British Invasion Night

Jordin Sparks kicks off the final five tonight. "I Who Have Nothing", should be an interesting song, a very big song for her, let's see if she can pull it off..
Jordin...solid start to the song, she's putting a lot of emotion into the song, she's holding her own, with this one, WOW!..great job...Judges, Randy: very tall order, great performance, best of the night, Paula: wonderful performer, Simon: sang it beautifully, feel like jumping off a bridge, it was so gloomy, I want the sun to shine, sang it beautifully. That's two weeks in a row Jordin has had solid performances, her stock is headed up for sure. The WILD side of Sanjaya next? Please don't let it involve a Hula skirt....PLEASE....Sanjaya, "You Really Got Me"..."Something Good", which will he choose..."You Really Got Me", picked a big rock song, WAY too big for his voice, he's using the stage to his advantage, he sounds like he's shouting, rather than singing, you don't "Really Got MY Vote"...Judges, Randy: shocked me, came out of your shell, best performance to date, Paula: went for it, was a lot of fun, Simon: I think the little girl's face says it all.
It must be something in the soda cups tonight, yes Sanjaya showed a lot personality, and it may keep him in this for I hate to say it another week. Up next...Gina..."Paint it Black"...
Gina...sticking with her "rock" theme where she is the strongest..great start, on key, not sure who is having more fun, her or the drummer. solid stage presence. Judges, Randy: loved the edge, little pitcy, Paula: miles better than last week, what you have fun doing, Simon: moments of complete torture, off melody, vocally not good enough...Gina wasn't close with that song tonight, I hope she gets another chance...Chris Sligh next..."She's Not There"...this should show off his vocal range, he should do really well with this tune.
Chris Sligh, "She's Not There"...starting in the audience, nice...sounds greathe's hitting his notes, great stage presence, but Paula is sitting! Judges, Randy: wound up good, ended it strong, a little rough, Paula: dressing much nicer, be more personable, vocals were good, Simon: did your thing, thought it was fun, good choice of song, showed personality, better than last week. the audience navigation looked a little rough. Up next...to close the show, Melinda....
Melinda, "As Long as He Needs Me"...another slow song, she is kind of falling into the same thing Lakisha did. We know she'll still sound good in thirty years. She's hitting higher notes than Lakisha, and what is with the little girl in the audience tonight? Judges, Randy: saved the best for last, Paula: your in your own league, it's not forced, Simon: made the second part of the song sensational with an impeccable vocal. ..well, the weeks are getting better I think..recap in a few....
