The Top 7 finalists can perform any song tonight that was recently released from 2010 to the present:
Skylar Laine stayed true to her down home country girl roots by singing Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You that the Season 5 Miss American Idol finalist Kellie Pickler had a hit with. She played guitar and belted out some very big notes very well.
Colton Dixon sat at the piano and delivered a heartfelt and dreamy rendition of I Love The Way You Lie. He showed off his impressive vocal range and unique style and personality. It was sweet and yet incredibly powerful at the same time.
Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye is currently in the Top 5 on the Billboard HOT 100. It's a very powerful song and it showcased Elise at her best, while Phillip just dragged it down with his awkward floundering. For someone who is so full of himself, Phillip didn't seem very confident on stage with this one.
Jessica Sanchez has the confidence to tackle any style of music successfully. She performed the Jazmine Sullivan song Stuttering with outstanding control and perfection. She is ready to be an award winning, top selling professional.
Bruno Mars tore the roof off the place when he performed Runaway Baby at the Grammy Awards this year. Joshua Ledet did the same thing with his electric and dynamic rendition of this uptempo jam. The vocals tonight were his best yet.
Don't You Wanna Stay by Jason Aldean and the Season 1 Miss American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson, has been one of the biggest hits ever for well over a year. Colton once again showed off more of his diversity with his vocal stylings while Skylar was right in her comfort zone.
Pink hit the top 5 last year with Perfect and Hollie Cavanagh took it up 200% to even better than perfect. Hollie looked perfectly lovely and sounded perfectly amazing. She has an effortless vocal range that far surpasses anything that Pink could ever dream about doing.
Phillip Phillips just doesn't have what it takes to do justice to the Grammy Award winning, number one hit making group Maroon 5. He looked very uncomfortable on stage with his eyes leering in strange directions and sounding angry, but still very lackluster.
Stronger by the Season 1 Miss American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson, recently spent three weeks on top of the Billboard HOT 100 singles chart. Hollie, Joshua and Jessica sounded wonderful as they were throwing this anthem down. It was a serious mixing together of some great voices.
Elise was back where she belongs with her version of Lady Gaga's You And I. While it was more in her element, her vocals still sounded strained and forced.
I predict that this week Elise will be joined in the bottom three with Skylar and Phillip. I think all three of them have reached their peak and have no where else to go but down. It looks like Elise will be going home.
