    OMG, poor guy! I kinda feel sorry for him. Was he teary-eyed through that whole performance?! I would be too. Geez.

    Blake sounds amazing from these MP3′s.
    Sounds kinda echoy though; maybe its just the big stage.

    All of his songs sound perfect.

    Do we have a winner here or are they going to cheat and drop Blake over Jordin, they already did it to Melinda!

    Why is Simon never wrong?

    Anyway, though…this is really unfair to Blake. “This Is My Now” so clearly fits better with a girl’s voice than a guy’s!

    Nice tears, 17-year old. lol.

    Thanks so much for writing about AI and uploading the songs, Rickey. It really helped when I did not have the television and was unable to watch.

    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! THIS IS THE BEST THAT HE HAS DONE THE ENTIRE COMPETITION! BLAKE LEWIS FOR THE NEXT AMERICAN IDOL! He has something that the other contestants from the past didn’t have.

    Jordin absolutely killed Blake with that last song because Jordin has much more powerful voice than Blake and if you have a weak voice, that will clearly show your weakness (especially toward the end of the song, we could hear Jordin’s voice last much longer than Blake) One thing I like about Blake though is that he is very smart: he knows his weakness, so that’s why he picked the songs that fit to his voice (and I also like most of his song choices too!) I like his creativeness for Bon Jovi’s song but Bon Jovi has a power voice so that song also has the good and the bad. I don’t like Jordin’s song choices tonight. So we’ll see tomorrow!

    remeber last season when they let taylor hicks choose a different song? but katharine still pushed through with it.

    i’m still keeping my fingers crossed. go blake! i hope you’re the winner, because for 2 seasons now, i’ve had all my bets coming in second.

    Totally agree with you. I think that they were sympathetic of Jordin because they think that she can’t handle it on her own. And I have a nudge that the tears in the end of the last song was an act… Because you really didn’t see anything coming out of her eyes. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

    Poor Blake he didn’t stand a chance. I will buy his cd when it comes out. Jordin better come strong when her cd is released after all the pimping AI producers did for here.

    did anybody notice that there was NO CHOIR…i am pretty dissapointed…it looked so much better…buy ANYWAY…im torn between blake and jordin…they are both amazing…blake has been my favorite ever since i saw him in the auditions…but jordin is young and has a powerful voice to back it up…so i dont know who will win…im not even voting haha…im ashamed in myself :(

    I’ll take Blake’s worst performance any day over Jordin’s best. She’s good, yeah, but I see nothing original.

    As much as I dig Blake, though, I kinda don’t want him to win because I don’t want him to have to be saddled with that wretched excuse of a song. Seriously, that was the biggest piece of dreck I’ve heard in who the hell knows how long.

    I just tried to GetRight the mp3′s and saw the grim reaper for the first time. And then I thought of all those kids using Myspace. tsk tsk Rickey, I thought you had much more class.

    That coronation song is total ****, made for a glory note singer. Let’s see Jordin sing YGLABN or Time of the Season. She shrieked through the first song and Randy saying her version of Borken Winds was better than the original was freakin’ laughable. Martina could sing circles around princess J.

    Vote for Blake, go Team Plaid!

    I AM SO GLAD THERE’S NO LAME CHOIR! I think if it’s Melinda vs Jordin finale, we would definitely have the choir.

    Anyway, flawed as it is, I actually like Blake’s version better. Of course he doesn’t have the kind of range that female singer has…but his voice has that special something that makes him more memorable. Jordin sounds like McTatah to me.

    I’m really torn here. I want to vote for blake but I can’t since I’m not in the US! Somebody please vote for Blake for me!

    Given the crappy, girl song, I still think Blake did what he can to this song and I think he did really good!

    I really wish I could vote for Blake! This competition has stopped being a singing contest anyway since Melinda got the boot. So please vote for originality and cretivity. Vote for Beatbox! Vote for Blake!!!!

    Thanks, Ricky by the way for uploading these. :-)

    Oh good.. Blake sounded AMAZING throughout the night.. all his songs were great, although I think the last song was made for Jordin..

    VOTE FOR BLAKE!! He really deserves to win this competition. He doesn’t get as much pimping from the judges like someone else does.. But he can really carry so many kinds of tunes, whereas Jordin can only do so much with that big voice of hers.

    Blake made the ‘written for Jordin’ song sound great too! He’s the next AI.

    GO BLAKE!! YOU TOTALLY ROCK BRO!
