I think Daughtry was 6th place too. Lucky numbers? I'm sad, I wanted to hear more covers

nahh, Daughtry was like 4th. I wanted to hear more too. when he sang Maroon 5, didn't they say he wanted to do his original song but (stupid fucking) Jimmy shut him down? maybe I misunderstood
I think once they get this far I don't really care anymore, and I almost don't want my favorites to win. he had a good run.

the first performances of Jacob and James both had me cringing. Scotty and Lauren were wayyyy better, which shocked me. but Jacob made up for it later
they gave Haley way too much crap for You and I, but she probably had the best performance of anyone this season with House of the Rising Sun. Siobhan Magnus sang it last year (sorry, I know this is like the 6th time I've mentioned her) and was fantastic, but Haley just overshadowed that.

Haha, I loved Siobhan!
I give tonight a C+ overall. Jacob/James' first performances really blew.

Fuck Scotty for that nasty/racist song. 100% over him.

was his second song the racist one? I wasn't paying attention to the lyrics. EDIT: NEVERMIND JUST KIDDING! that was embarassing... k, J-Lo and Randy are terrible. I don't care if they try and make up for it with their standing ovation for her second performance, but their Haley criticisms are ridiculous. after a completely lackluster performance of Don't Stop Believin', they said James set the bar really high and she didn't reach that level. what the hell show are they watching? anyways, Gaga=best mentor ever

Oh my God Lauren's second song was awful AND THEY SAID NOTHING. I can't even with these people. I can't wait to hear the recorded tracks, Earth Song is one of my favourite MJ songs.

I got really worried thinking she might sing We Are the World. even Haley couldn't make me like that song

I'm glad Haley made it to top three, but if it ends up being Scotty/Lauren top two it is going to be the most boring finale ever.

yeah, but a Haley/Lauren finale would be great, especially considering the lack of girls in the finale the past few years.
I feel like James leaving gives Haley a good shot at winning, since she'll probably get most of his votes. then if Lauren gets the boot, her votes will split between Haley and Scotty. and having a good country fan base can only take you so far so Haley wins it all! eh? maybe I'm too optimistic

A Haley/Lauren finale would be so awesome! I hope Haley wins. Lauren's good but something about her personality irks me.
I'm going to attempt to get up early to buy tour tickets. Let's ee how this goes.

If Haley doesn't make it to top 2 I'm gonna be so mad.

she was phenomenal in her first performance, but Jimmy and the judges didn't pick very good songs for her. how did they expect her to get that prechorus to You Oughta Know?
what a dull finale it would be without Haley though

People are really psyched about the potential for an all country finale and if that's the case I will not watch at all. Lauren and Scotty are great singers but holy shit will that be boring.

I don't even think their voices are that good! Lauren's is pretty good, and I'm sure it will get better with age. I feel like most of Scotty's appeal comes from the fact that he's singing that deep at his age. in a few years his voice will probably just seem like an average country singer's voice because he'll be a man and it won't be impressive anymore

after Scotty was called, part of me hoped Lauren was called next just because you could tell how bad she wanted it. I'm happy for her. I really hope she wins, but I do not plan on watching next week

Yeah, performance night is going to be boring as shit but the finale-finale should be beter.
I might actually vote for Lauren next week because Scotty is just going to have the same performance all the time.

I'm actually interested to see what song Carrie Underwood picks for Lauren but otherwise, this is already boring. I'm leaving it on while doing homework instead of dropping everything to watch it for the first time this season.

I fast-forwarded through this on my DVR and watched it in about 15 minutes. I'm glad they reprised the songs they did, but Lauren did do very good on her's. I liked her second song though.
I was skipping through her last song, and then I hit play and she sang a bit and I said to my sister "well, at least that sounded good", and then I kind of backtracked and said "well, it sounded like she was trying to sound good." she said she was thinking the same thing, haha

and the worst person of the top...12? wins. maybe 13, I forgot that Ashthon actually has a pretty good voice until tonight. they sure are on a roll with crappy winners. Lauren deserved it so much more. WAHHH
and Naima was totally cheated out of a good solo! all the other girls got one

SRSLY to everything in that post.
What was up with all those fucking medleys? It would have been way better to just give them each solos and maybe one group song or something instead of all that painful shit. For a Top 13 that was relatively good this was the worst finale in a long time.

definitely. things looked so promising back when there were 11 or 12 of them. and Scotty's song dethroned Adele as the number one song on itunes. yuck
Casey's duet was kind of funny, but he was outshined by Jack Black and the dancing girls at the end were pretty unnecessary. Haley was great though
