Tough call tonight...
My Idol/idle thoughts:
Taylor - I thought he had a really good night. "In the Ghetto" was fantastic.
Chris - He did okay. I didn't appreciate his screech at the end of one of his songs.
Elliot - He's not my favorite, but I have to admit that he did well tonight. The second song that everyone raved about ended well, but I thought it started out a bit off. It was too low and he wasn't on pitch.
Katharine - Not her best night.
If people vote strictly on the performances tonight rather than the whole season - Chris and Katharine in the bottom two, Katharine goes home.
If they vote for the whole season - Elliot and Katharine in the bottom two, Elliot goes home.
Although Katharine is the most marketable, at this point in the season I'm thinking a Taylor/Chris finale. Not what I expected at all - not entirely happy about the situation. Chris is not my fav (sorry, Chas). He sounds exactly like a ton of others already in the market and I don't appreciate the whole pop trying to be rock (ala Creed) genre. Occasionally he screams, trying to prove he's a badass. Don't like it. When he does any style that doesn't involve yelling he sounds a lot better, but he looks bored and I know he wouldn't release music like that. Taylor is unique and intriguing. I appreciate his style and would listen to his CD.
Wow - thinking back to the auditions and early shows, I never dreamed that Taylor would grow on me. Kinda scary. Like fungus.

I like Taylor a lot too; he grows on me every week. I think he could definitely find his niche in the mainstream music scene.
