Peter Noone had a string of hits with Herman's Hermits from 1964 through 1968. Tonight he sang one of their gold singles that hit the top 5 in 1967, There's A Kind Of Hush. He certainly doesn't make an entrance like Diana Ross, but he proved that he can still work the crowd and connect with the audience after all these years.
Ryan then mixed it up by asking groups of three to stand up. First it was Melinda, Phil and Blake and they were not the bottom three. Next it was Jordin, Chris Sligh and LaKisha and they were not the bottom three. Sanjaya, Haley and Gina were the next group to stand and believe it or not, they are all safe and they are all coming back next week. That only left Chris Richardson and Stephanie Edwards as the bottom two. One of them is going home.
Did you ever have a crush on one of your high school teachers? You knew how it felt to gaze at him in class every day, but just couldn't articulate the words to express your feelings. To Sir With Love is just the song that captures all the letters that you would write across the sky and would soar a thousand feet high. Lulu took the stage and performed her mega smash #1 song from 1967 that conveys those school girl days just as well today as it did back then.
Even after the guidance of Diana Ross and Lulu and very good vocal performances all season so far, Stephanie Edwards failed to connect with the audience and get them to vote for her. She's a very talented young woman who is no longer in the running for Season Six Miss American Idol. What a shame.
The real shame is the fact that Phil, Gina, and the car wreck named Sanjaya are coming back next week. I was way off on all of my predictions. I got none of them right. If you've sat back every year and enjoyed American Idol, but never called in and voted, it seems like this is the year to start dialing. How many talented finalists are you willing to see leave before Sanjaya?
