Okay, so Chris is my favorite. He has a good voice, and he happens to lean toward my genre. Taylor I love as an underdog -- I was expecting him to tank big-time this week because how does a Joe Cocker/Michael MacDonald voice try to tackle Freddy's? But I think he did a good thing and went for pure entertainment (and the last couple lyrics were bang-on). Taylor's main problem is these themed weeks don't let him do his thing and nail the Doobie Brothers or Percy Sledge or Otis Redding. Taylor could be Michael Bolton with an actual understanding of the music.
I gotta say, though...Paris blew me away. She's 16 and doesn't understand the very lyrics she's singing, but look what that did for Fiona Apple.
Bets for tomorrow -- Bucky or Ace will tank. Bucky has no right being in the top 8 as it is. Ace has a decent voice from time to time, but I'm beyond the airhead chic. The complete lack of brain cells used to make me cringe...but now I'm just sighing and waiting for the next contestant.
