American Idol 7 – Top 5 – Studio Recordings [download]

Neil Diamond week was rather disastrous, but can the Idols show their stuff in their studio versions? Not really.

– American Idol 7 – Top 5 Studio Recordings –

Neil Diamond Week

Track List:

1. Jason Castro – “Forever In Blue Jeans”
2. David Cook – “I’m Alive”
3. Brooke White – “I Am… I Said”
4. David Archuleta – “Sweet Caroline”
5. Syesha Mercado – “Hello Again”

Everyone is in their own genre this week, the tracks aren’t that superb though.

I guess David Cook’s the best, he showcases the modern day rock. Syesha does what she does best, her vocals are great. Brooke is also in her element, her track is nice to the ears.

Daivd A’s is nice, while Jason’s is… meh.

Enjoy! What do you think? Please leave comments!

American Idol 7 – Top 5 Results – Goodbye Brooke White [recap]

With the ultimate prize so close in hand, we had to say goodbye to our favourite nanny, Brooke White.

Jason was first given the pass to the sofas after the group number. Awwww man! Of course, he wore his blue jeans. The two Davids were then given the good news too, leaving Brooke and Syesha.

Ryan didn’t announce the bottom 2 this week, so I guess Syesha wasn’t in that category, thank goodness. Syesha, who looked prepared to leave, was shocked when it was Brooke’s turn to go. Brooke immediately burst into tears and choked on her song, while the others stood by her awkwardly. Except Mr. Castro of course, who looked happy that he made it to the next round. *smacks head*

Let’s do some more maths! Top 5 – Brooke White = 3 guys 1 girl. Oh wow. It’s like Season 6 all over again, except this time, the guys are dominating.

Meanwhile, Ryan announced that he lurked around online and proved that all the rumours regarding Paula’s weird demeanor last night was fake, and they all love her. Irrelevant much?

Performing tonight was Natasha Bedingfield, who sang her new single “Pocketful of Sunshine”. Natasha looked awesome and sounded great. Go Natasha! The mentor himself, Neil Diamond sang as well.

We gained immense knowledge tonight as Simon’s ex girlfriend, Tara Miller called in to ask Simon whether he enjoyed their little kiss in his backyard when he was 9. 9? Wow. Simon sure is smooth. Ryan must be jealous.

Spotted in the crowd, Gina Glocksen from Season 6 (go Gina!) sitting with Season 4’s Constantine Maroulis, and Season 5’s Ace Young right in front of them. Kristy Lee Cook was also in the audience, cheering for her fellow friends. Got your horse back, Kristy?

So Syesha has edged another round, the Davids continue to dominate, while Jason is in his own happy world. My guess is that Syesha will pass Jason for another week, and landing in third like Vonzell in Season 4, while the dream team of David vs David take on the finale.

Rock n Roll theme is up next week! I predict a glorious night for Cook, and a downfall for Jason.

MDOC Victory! XD
