Oh, and Melinda's version of the Whitney Houston song was SOOOOOOOO BOOOOORING. The other two songs were decent, but I still can't get past the frog/throaty super-fast vibratto thing that she does with her voice in certain parts of her songs.

And I still can't get over the judges praising Blake's version of "This Love." He kept falling behind the music! It made me cringe, which is why I was so dumbfounded at the judges bending over backwards to profess their love of his performance when it was so, so subpar. I think that Paula is screwing Blake, because he could get on stage and take a sh!t in a pan and she'd be all over it with a wet puss-y. I'd love to just smack the sh!t out of her.

DI is usually pretty accurate when we only have a few left. I think Blake is gone and I think a Melinda/Jordin finale will be a nailbiter. I think whoever goes last will get it. The producers will do that so they get an emotional end, like the year Carrie won. They know if they want ratings it needs to be Melinda/Jordin. Blake in there means the finale will be a runaway. There needs to be competition.

Jordin and Melinda final two will be nice. I honestly would not root for one over the other.

Melinda has the voice, the personality, and the consistency.

Jordin has the voice, the marketability, and the total package.

Good description, King. I love Jordin, but cannot dispute that Melinda has the advantage until you added the marketability.

The majority of people voting don't care about marketability. They're going to vote for whoever they want to win, regardless of how well they fit the market mold. I mean, look at Taylor Hicks, LoL

Jordin does deserve to win, though. Her voice is so fluid, clear and expansive. Melinda's nice, but she sounds rather throaty at times, with a strange froglike sound and super-fast vibratto. I don't like it.

I'll by happy with either Melinda or Jordin winning. Hopefully they'll be the final 2.

Melinda and Jordin completely out-sang Blake last night. They deserve the final two spots. Blake is good but Melinda and Jordin are just all kinds of awesome.

Jordin also proved last night why she deserves to win this competition.

I just checked Dial Idol and they are showing the results are too close to predict. That's about how I feel, too. Blake has a huge following who don't care if he can sing or is marketable or anything except that he is different like Taylor Hicks was and that was a huge disaster. I so hope that when all is said and done, sensibility rules and Melinda and Jordin are the final two. Grrrrrrrrrrr, now I will stew all day long ugh, but I do think Blake has a lot more going for him than Taylor had.

As far as getting into the final two, it really is anyone's game. People may not have voted as vigorously for Melinda cuz they thought she was safe. Maybe Jordin and Blake fans voted rabidly for three hours or however long.

You never know!! You never know.

I agree. Honestly, I don't think anything will really SURPRISE me tonight. I'd be ecstatic for a Jordin or Melinda win. If Blake wins, it will be a letdown, because Melinda and Jordin just completely out-sing him but it wouldn't be a surprise if he won either.

It's tough.

I agree that Blake is different like TH but he's waaaayyyy better the TH. He's different in a good way IMO.

I think it will be a Melinda/Jordin final. Although at this point I'm kind of Melinda'd out. There's no doubt that she has an amazing voice but it gets old hearing the same thing from her every week. I think it will be too close to call.

Hoping for a Melinda/Jordin final two, but who knows. If Katherine "Touch My Beaver" McPheever could make it into the final two, then so could Blake.

That nickname for Katherine is hilarious.....

I'm hoping for a Melinda/Jordin final two also....Blake's beat boxing was interesting at first, but he's done it to often and the novelty has worn off in a major way for me.....It's just plain annoying now....

I hope Melinda goes tonight. I do not like her at all, she bores the heck out of me.

If she gets sent home tonight, there's no justice!

Send that little pissant Blake home. Now!

That was a ridiculous remark by Simon. That song is ageless AGELESS as love is ageless. Jordin was breathtaking in this. I hope those who believe he was trying to get sympathy for Jordin are correct as his remarks cut both ways and that could have hurt her for votes, too.
