You guys got it all wrong. This will tick everyone off: SUNDANCE should NEVER have been in the competition. If anyone got in because of a good first audition and a LOT of charm, it was he. During Hollywood week he was aweful, but Simon and Paula liked his personality and admitted he didn't do well but they liked his original audition. When he got picked over that other kid from LA (his name escapes me) I was shocked. They weren't even in the same league, but the guy he beat had a cockiness problem. Then, he bores everyone the first week but passes on personality. Next, he does a terribly boring version of Mustang Sally, but everyone seems to love it-- again they comment that the song fits his PERSONALITY. Finally, he hacks a great Pearl Jam song that was way too big for him. He was off-key, his voice was thin and strained-- HE's NOT THAT GOOD, people. He's a bar band singer. He'll get a deal from someone. Simon sure liked him enough that I bet he signs him on the side.
Surely Sanjaya doesn't have what it takes to win, or even compete-- I thought his sister was better and certainly hotter. But he was no worse than Sundance this week. I thought he should have been gone last week, though!
The biggest crime last night was Sabrina Sloan-- clearly one of the top 4 female voices. Randy was right when he said "America got it wrong."
Haley should never have made it past Hollywood week either. She sounds like Kathy Lee singing on "Musical Chairs" back in the 70s. Yeah, she is beautiful, but she should be singiing on a cruise ship or something.
Both she and Sanjaya (and Antonella until last night), I believe, got votes via the "pity factor". It seems this season that when Simon wastes someone with the truth about their inability to sing, there is a backlash of votes for that person. Phil was horrible the other night, Simon told him so, and he got voted in, too. However, I think Phil deserves to be in with the guys.
Sabrina got the opposite-- she was given a vote of confidence by the judges and the public slacked off on voting for her.
The bottom line, no matter who you like: it's a crapshoot. There's no rhyme or reason.
