Assuming Vonzell goes; see you guys in January for AI 5!!

I did not like Bo in the beginning but he has gradually proved to me that
he is the best of the bunch and the deserving winner. Carrie is very talented but I can't stand the songs she sings. Still both of those two are always in tune and usually sound great. Vonsell shows up for some songs but it is amazing to me how badly she does with others. I almost feel sorry for her sometimes which is the same feeling I had for Jasmine and Red last year. She's better than those two but still, that's not good...

I think he meant to say that Bo's schtick is getting old. Same thing over and over again. Is it boring per se? No.

The results that most of us were expecting.
I'm just upset that the studio audience on Tuesday got to see Episode III before I did. Lucky Bastards.

Why is Carrie better than Vonzell? I still dont understand. I'm sitting in solace...
...is anyone else??? Sadness.....
Oh well, next tues and weds are free for me now!
Does anyone know what happens next? If Vonzie isn't signed with AI, she has to wait her contract out, right? I'm confused on what happens...

another week goes as expected (and as it should have gone) 
vonzell will have a record deal.. its just a matter of whether the label backing AI will do it.. or whether she has to sit out her AI contract and wait to sign with someone else
but what happens next? the final 12 go on tour for like 4 months

Bo and Carrie have never totally botched a song. Vonsell has screwed up two entire songs in the past two weeks. I think she was much better earlier in the competition. The last few weeks she has gotten by on her likability moreso than her talent.
The right one is going home.

I'm glad to see Vonzell go. I'm tired of hearing the same song and watching her dance like that! What really got me was last night when she just smiled through her entire performance... to a sad song! DUH! And yeah, what's up with all the pastels? Her daddy's a pimp too. Although, I do think she could get a modeling contract. She has pretty skin and a good body.
I think Carrie will win because she has more range. She can do more things than Bo can. Though I really like both of them. In the end, they'll both have a career and will make great money. Look at Clay! He came in 2nd and still gets more publicity and deals than the "other guy".

So you're running to the store every time Limp Bizkit releases an album because they write their own music? Attempting to be creative alone is not enough is your product is bad.
I don't care who did what, what matters is the end product. I'd take manufactured pop that sounds good any day over "creative" music that sounds like shit.

It finally struck me tonight who Bo reminds me of. I know he is a rocker. I know that's his background, but I looked at the hair and closed my eyes and listened to the voice and suddenly I could hear him singing Soul Provider, Time Love and Tenderness...
If he went pop, Bo could be the next Michael Bolton!
That sillyness being said, I'm starting to think that Bo could pull this out. I know Carrie is the first contestant since Kelly Clarkson never to be in the bottom 2 or 3, but Bo has really been doing it the last few weeks and I just think he might have the momentum.

This is the final I've been waiting for for a few months now. My only regret is that they can't have co-winners with both Bo and Carrie winning, they are both great and appeal to different crowds.
For a long time I thought that Bo had an OK voice at best and was surviving on his great stage performances, but that a capello song last night really blew me away, he can sing.
That being said, I think Carrie will win, but it'll be Bo's CD that I'll be more likely to buy. Either one will have more success than Fantasia or Ruebin.

His voice can't sound different than it is. The guy's not boring. In fact he has been a breath of fresh air to this annual event that was getting stale before his arrival.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think Bo could do a killer, spot-on rendition of "Say Hello 2 Heaven " by Temple of the Dog (Cornell/Vedder side project)? Maybe even "Hunger Strike".
But I was just thinking that when I heard him do his acapella tune.
