This week Idol went back an older theme, the music of Caroline King. It's very interseting to see this show, especially since you know that most of the auidence never heard any one of these songs before last night. Let's get into it...
Jacob
Song: Oh No Not My Baby
Blake: First of all horrible outfit. The performance wasn't bad but not great. At this point I want to hear nothing but great.
Rating (out of 5): ***
Mandy: I am so over Jacob. He looks like Urkel but sounds like Myra. Yes I went there. Please go home to Laura and Big Guy.
Lauren
Song: Where You Lead
Blake: Very surprising performance. I liked it, she made it her own. Very nice.
Rating (out of 5): ****
Mandy: Lauren finally came out of her shell. Young girls can look up to her instead of Miley. I love her sass. She's a young Kelly.
Casey and Haley
Song: I Feel The Earth Move
Blake: Haley actually sounded really good on this song. Casey and her mesh really well. They just seemed like they were having a lot of fun.
Rating (out of 5): ****1/2
Mandy: I love Casey and Haley together. He brings the best out of her. Casey, he doesn't need the help. Possible love connection?
Scotty
Song: You've Got A Friend
Blake: Wow. Very well done. He even found a way to hide the country accent during most of the song. Might be one of his best.
Rating (out of 5): *****
Mandy: I love what Scotty did with the song. He's back and with a vengence. He had me wishing I was 16 so I could legally swoon!
James
Song: Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?
Blake: Didn't expect this from him after everything he's done this season. Well done while being very low key.
Rating (out of 5): *****
Mandy: James really impressed me. Just him and the guitar. He's David Cook and Adam Lambert's lovechild. Great twist on the song.
Scotty and Lauren
Song: Up on the Roof
Blake: Well for two people that are "brother and sister" they have a lot of chemistry. They are always fantastic together, this was no different.
Rating (out of 5): *****
Casey
Song: Hi-De-Ho
Blake: This was a different side of a man that has more sides than a rubix cube. Well done!
Rating (out of 5): ****1/2
Haley
Song: Beautiful
Blake: This wasn't great but might just but enough to survive another week. Just felt like she did sing it as well as she could.
Rating (out of 5): ****
Jacob and James
Song: I'm Into Something Good
Blake: Flirting and singing to J-Lo always helps. These two had so much fun and their melodies were amazing. That was really good.
Rating (out of 5): ****1/2
Should Go Home: Jacob
Will Go Home: Jacob
