American Idol-The top six

This week the top six performed the music of Carol King, a famous singer and song writer. With the royal wedding around the corner, enthusiasm for the show dropped and  ratings fell by 5%..

This week apart from the individual performances by the top six, the audience were entertained with 3 duets.

Casey and Haley sang "I feel the Earth Move". It was an average performance. Judge Steven hinted about an affair between the pair and asked  Casey if he was in love with Haley, a question which remained unanswered to the disappointment of the audience.

Lauren and Scotty performed their third duet together, singing "Up on the Road". The performnace was not as good as their earlier duets. The pair also squashed any rumours of a budding romance by saying they viewed each other as brother and sister.

The best duet of the night was by Jacob and James.who sang "Something good". It was a lively performanc with a lot of acting and the audience loved it.

The individual performances were not as good as they were last week when every performance was superb.I think that the singing itself was good but some of the songs chosen were a bit dull

 The best performance of the night was James singing "Will you still love me?" .Randy said that this performance proved that James was not only a great rocker but a great singer as well. With last weeks excellent performance under his belt, James has emerged as a serious contender for becoming the next American Idol.

Casey gave a superb performance of "Hi De Ho". He is a brilliant performer and a great entertainer. I loved the way he played a few bars on the piano at the beginning of the song.
Despite  a superb performance and lavish praises from the judges, Casey was voted out of the show the next day.
This just goes to show that no one knows what happens next on American Idol and the competition can still be any ones game.

Casey went out with a bang giving a very entertauning performance in which he hugged the judges and a number of adoring fans in the audience. There has never been another performar like Casey and we will all miss him.

Scotty and Jacob were also in the bottom three.

But for now America has chosen its top five and we can look forward to some brilliant performances next week from James, Jacob, Scotty, Lauren and Haley.
