Order was restored to the universe shortly after 8:00 p.m. Eastern when Randy Jackson once again uttered his immortal words, "You gotta be in it to win it."
You don’t have to hold your breath to the end, here’s who I liked tonight according to the way the votes will go down:
Best Male – Danny Gokey, by a zillion miles
Best Female – Alexis Grace, who I am now in love with. Syesha who? Sabrina who?
Next Best - Anoop Desai but he really didn’t distinguish himself
A lot of train wrecks tonight. Kind of makes you wonder how good a job the judges did putting people through or maybe it’s just the best you can hope for when amateurs hit the big stage on national television. Still, Jamar couldn’t have done better than what we saw tonight with the exceptions of Danny and Alexis? Hopefully, the next two sets of 12 will be better.
Admit it – when you heard that Tatiana was going to sing Whitney, you smiled with glee knowing this was going to be, as I said before she went on, “the biggest train wreck in a night of train wrecks.” And then you had to restrain your glee when she actually did OK. At this point, though, it is NOW a singing competition for me and I am done with her.
Really disappointed with both Anoop and Stephen Fowler who have way more potential than they showed tonight.
The next couple of weeks will be interesting for me in that I may have already seen my two favorites in Danny and Alexis. Danny’s voice at times gives me chills, he knows how to arrange music in a way that is both good musically and good for his vocal style, and he’s a nice guy with a great backstory. Alexis cannot be cuter and she has that Dusty Springfield (for the old schoolers)/Duffy (for the new schoolers) vibe going on. And she cannot be cuter. I’m sure I haven’t said that before.

what do you think of the new system? Hard to believe that only the top guy and gal (and the next top vote-getter?) will remain each week? Hope that website that votes to wreck the voting doesn't have an inordinate influence!!
The new system is tricky. It seems like it will leave some good people out. And I worry about the Vote For the Worst Factor although Tatiana did go this week (assuming Idol hater would through their votes to her). I guess the 3 judges choices will offer some insurance against that. I am nervous about it though.
