‘American Idol’: Jason Castro goes home?

Gail, I agree with you on every count with the exception of David Archuleta. I didn’t appreciate his “Love Me Tender” performance. I guess I just don’t like all the runs and embellishments. I do agree though that, vocally, Archuleta was very good last night. JASON MUST GO. At this point in the competition you just CAN’T forget lyrics. Sheesh. And his “I Shot The Sheriff” — good grief! He wasn’t even in sync with the freaking band! Pack your bags indeed.

The only thing that kills me (and why I believe they want the Chosen Boy to win) - they told David C he did nothing original with Duran Duran - but what was the originality of David A in doing his first song “Stand by Me”- I’ve heard that version more than a few times and maybe even at karaoke!
I also was amazed at the reaction of changing up Bob Marley by Jason, didn’t realize he was untouchable as an artist - they had no problems with screwing with the Beatles - “make it your own” isn’t that the mantra? (I’m not saying I agree with what he did but he tried something)
When they commented that Cook was off last night, I can’t help but worry that his brother maybe isn’t doing well and obviously it would affect his performance? Really hope that is not the case.

Are you kidding? Jason Castro has his own style…as does David Cook.
Why Syesha is still there is questionable. and who decided that David Archuletta was good.. I always have to get up and leave the room when he’s on… he’s forgotten words… 3times in one song… always off key… his pitch…ew… he should have been voted off way back… all of the “good” female singers are gone… Jason Castro has a difinitive style and I would DEFINITELY buy his muisic… why can’t anyone on IDOL be an individual? David Cook should win with a slam dunk…. Let’s hope David A. leaves tonight… I don’t want to hear him sing agasin… he’s only there because of the teeny boppers votes… please let’s hope it’s the end of the road for him!

Although Archuleta sounded good, it’s the same thing every week. It’s getting really annoying. And his performance is nonexistent. Jason was horrendous, which sucks because I really like him. Syesha was bad the first song, better the second. Could’ve done without the tears. David Cook dialed in the first performance, but I really liked his Baba O’Riley.

I see Jason leaving, but I kind of hope it’s Syesha.

Even though Castro was horrible, I wish Archie would go. I’m so tired of him. It’s the same thing over and over and over and over and over and…I think you get my drift. He’s so incredibly BOOring, and his gasps for air bug the you know what out of me. Sigh-eesha was good, but she’s too into herself. She needs to get out of there and get on Broadway. I love David Cook, though. While last night wasn’t all that great for him, he’s still amazing. Or as Randy would say, “I’m not jumping up and down, but I’m not mad at ya, Dogg.” If he wins or not, I’m sure he’ll do fine in the music business. Archie will fade away like Taylor Hicks…

I think Jason is by far the worst singer that has ever made it this far. He has stated in the past that he hasn’t really put in the effort that is probably needed to win. So why bother even trying out? His groupies who vote hundreds of times each are all that keep him going. If he wins he will most likely never have a hit.

Whats wrong with you people. Don’t you know that Jason wanted to be off the show weeks ago.He said so in an article last week. Why do you think he done every thing possible yesterday to get kicked off. Forgetting the lyrics was on purpose and you notice he let everyone know. At the beginning of the show he made a stupid face, When he was done with the singing the first song when ryan was standing next to him saying”If you want to vote for Jason dial…” Jason said Don’t vote and at the end of the show he gave a Nixon type wave saying goodbye to everyone. He didn’t want to stay any longer because he knew he was just being keep on the show because of his looks and that’s not what he’s about. There were other reasons but i will stop here.

Wanda is deluded if she thinks that Jason Castro has a style. I’m not a huge David Archueleta fan either — I agree with those who think he’s the same every week and it’s gotten boring as the weeks have progressed. For me, his best was “Imagine” and it’s been going down since then. I don’t quite understand the judges gushing over him as they do. But Castro should have been gone weeks ago. He can’t seem to sing above a whisper and I think Simon nailed it awhile back when he said that Jason sounded like a kid singing in his bedroom with his guitar at midnight. If he doesn’t go tonight, the system is truly flawed. I read another website that said if he stays tonight the other three should walk off and just let him have the bogus title. AMEN! My guess is that it will come down to the two David’s. David Cook should win it — he’s got it all together now.

David A. has a decent voice, but I cannot stand to watch him sing! And Jason is definetly the worst one there….Syesha was OK, but I LOVE David Cook!

Jason should have never been in the race, David A is annoying (and all his songs sound alike), Syesha is a good singer and has a future, but David Cook has it all and can sing anything from a ballad to hard rock. It will come down to the two Davids, but the David who is most marketable in the entertainment industry is David Cook. If David A wins, he’ll be competing against entertainers like Miley Cyrus and he’ll never make it.
