No doubt Sanjay will suck the worst, but I'll go with Phil getting the fewest votes.

I think Jared will be in big trouble, unless he completely wows. Sanjaya should be a no brainer, but we know that probably won't happen.

Hoping Sanjaya gets the boot, but it will probably be Jared.

Actually pulling for Sanjaya to pull it off. More talented singers have gone before him. He needs to show that its not all a joke.

and he is from my home state, so I am pulling for him.

Thought Blake was good, entertaining.

Sanjaya is a good singer, but damn is he annoying to look at and he's just a weird kid.

Glad the spikes are gone from Sundance. He was just ok.

I know, I said to my wife this is the only song that's been on AI that I actually knew... Haha. I knew his song last week as well.

Where's the option to send them all home? Not impressed at all with any of them.

Huh!? He sucks as a singer AND he's annoying to look at. Dear God, or I should say, U.S. Tweens, please don't vote for him. Again. Simon was spot on with his remarks.

I liked Blake and Chris Sligh, but not all that much. What a dull bunch the guys are. As long as it isn't Blake, I don't really care who goes tomorrow.

What was with all the judges giving Sundance head? He was downright awful, worse than karaoke. I also thought Chris Richardson sounded bad, like he got kicked in the balls. And what the hell is with Phil Stacey? He sounded like Cher in the beginning.

The only guys I really like are Blake and Jared. I can't believe the judges would critique Jared after that out of tune performance by Sundance.

I meant I think he has a decent voice - but he's a terrible entertainer, he's best suited in a chorus or something where he's not at the front.

Sunjaya is a nice kid. He's 17 yrs old. He's polite, adorable, sweet.. but he's not strong enough for this competition. Maybe in a few years he'll be older, more mature and his voice will be stronger. But for now.. he needs to go. I don't want to see this kid get bashed every week by anyone... and if he stays, that's exactly what's going to happen. John Stevens was the victim a couple of years ago.. in the end it wasn't pretty.. there were even death threats. Not cool.
This kid needs to go home.

Yeah, I've gotta say, it's not like he picked an obscure 311 song. That was probably their biggest hit. I guess if it's not Beyonce or if Randy didn't work with them, they don't know it.

I agree. I always look forward to Blake because he PERFORMS. He may not be the best singer, but he sure is entertaining. I think Jared will go, Sinjayah should go, but due to backlash he will stay, and either Phil or Brandon will go home. The guys don't know how to leave it all on the stage. I miss the Chris Daughtery performances. Even Taylor performed and left it all out there. The guys are just weak this year.

Not a single one of these guys should be on this show, though Blake was entertaining.

5th biggest hit according to billboard's modern rock chart...

1996 Down Modern Rock Tracks #1
2004 Love Song Modern Rock Tracks #1
2005 Don't Tread On Me Modern Rock Tracks #2
2003 Creatures (For a While) Modern Rock Tracks #3
1996 All Mixed Up Modern Rock Tracks #4


And it didn't even chart on the mainstream rock chart (several others did)

None of these guys seem to really want it this season, pretty much a mediocre collection of these last remaining 8 guys.

Blake continues with iffy beat-box-hip-hoppism, just stand there and show me you got a voice (because on the radio, no one can see what your doing with your gestures and movements).

Sanjaya is the trainwreck of AI 2007. Can't stand to look away at what inexperienced misstep he'll do on the latest episode of AI.

Sundance continues on with the screamfest that is becoming his signature vocal stylings. I don't think I could listen to him on the radio for any length of time nowadays.

Chris R was not all that interesting with the safe song choice. He sounded whiney as hell on that song.

Jared was okay, but lacks the soulfullness of Stevie to really pull off that song. The prep boy look didn't do him any favors, either.

Brandon is boring.

Phil has an unsteady bottom register, and no upper registers (he just tries singing louder, not higher).

Chris S was a bit on the dull side with the performance, plus the song wasn't all that interesting to listen to. He needs to stop singing obscure songs he likes, and find more melodic songs to sing.
