LAST EDITED ON 02-18-09 AT 10:00 AM (EST)Will Stay: Danny, Alexis, Anoop
Should Stay (based on last night only): Danny, Alexis, Tatiana
Rankings:
1) Danny Gokey - he sings the song perfectly and puts a spin on it that's different. He has really potential and has to make it through to the Final 12.
2) Alexis Grace - a unique sound with enough vocal chops to go far. And she's got a cool look. I hope she makes it but with no pimping during Hollywood week, it's an uphill battle. Fortunately, most of the other girls were terrible.
3) Tatiana Nicole Del Toro - never thought I'd put her here, but the fact is the girl can sing. And she made an effort to NOT be annoying last night. So props to her.
4) Anoop Desai - Not the best performance, but I know he's good so I can't drop him lower than four.
5) Ann Marie Boskovich - It was decent. Not terrible and the potential for it to be terrible was certainly there with such an iconic song.
6) Rick Braddy - Good singer, but kind of forgettable. We need time to grow to like him and we don't have it. He's slightly ahead of Jackie because it's a singing competition.
7) Jackie Tohn - She's a great performer like the judges said. I'd like to see her brought back for the wildcard round.
8) Michael Sarver - I liked his performance, but it wasn't wonderful.
9) Brent Keith - forgettable country singer.
10) Stephen Fowler - that was horrible.
11) Stevie Wright - the only reason you're not last is that you didn't destroy one of the best songs ever like number 12.
12) Casey Carlson - You didn't even understand the song let alone sing it well. You have no chance.
