Agree with that.
Initially my pick for the girls was Didi, but she totally blew it this week. That moves Crystal into my top spot.

Guys side shuffled too. Casey will need a comeback.

Here are my rankings for the gals for week 3.
Including the artist/song covered for their performance.
Two more will be voted off this week.
Obviously, to me, that should be those 2 that are ranked 7th and 8th.


1) Crystal Bowersox
....Traci Chapman - Give Me One Reason
2) Lacey Brown
....Brandi Carlisle - The Story
3) Didi Benami
....Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon
4) Siobhan Magnus
....Animals - House Of The Rising Sun
5) Lilly Scott
....Patsy Cline - I Fall To Pieces
6) Katelyn Epperly
....Carole King - I Feel The Earth Move
7) Paige Miles
....Charlie Chaplin - Smile
8) Katie Stevens
....Kelly Clarkson - Break Away

Here are my rankings for the guys for week 3.
Including the artist/song covered for their performance.
Two more will be voted off this week.
Obviously, to me, that should be those 2 that are ranked 7th and 8th.

1) Alex Lambert
....Ray Lamontagne - Trouble
2) Casey James
....Keith Urban - You'll Think Of Me
3) Tim Urban
....Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah
4) Michael Lynche
....Maxwell - This Womans Work
5) Lee Dewyze
....Owl City - Fireflies
6) Aaron Kelly
....Lone Star - I'm Already There
7) Andrew Garcia
....Christina Aguilara - Genie In A Bottle
8) Todrick Hall
....Queen - Somebody To Love

Voted off this week were:

Katelyn Epperly
Lilly Scott
Alex Lambert
Todrick Hall

My rankings were 6th, 5th, 1st and 8th.

Very surprised at Lilly and Alex, but hey, what do I know?

So once again I'm 1 for 4.

Here are my rankings for week 4.
At this point everyone (guys and gals) performs on the same show.
This week was Rolling Stones week.
I'm not sure if it's 1 or 2 that get voted off this week.
I'll find out when it happens.

1) Lacey Brown - Ruby Tuesday
2) Didi Benami - Play With Fire
3) Katie Stevens - Wild Horses
4) Crystal Bowersox - You Can't Always Get What You Want
5) Aaron Kelly - Angie
6) Siobhan Magnus - Paint It Black
7) Lee Dewyze - Beast of Burden
8) Paige Miles - Honky Tonk Women
9) Michael Lynche - Miss You
10) Casey James - It's All Over Now
11) Tim Urban - Under My Thumb
12) Andrew Garcia - Gimme Shelter

I like Casey a lot, Katie also did a great job with Wild Horses, although i think she could be better if she let herself go a little..

i'm rooting for Crystal Bowersox

Ok, I admit, I suck at predicting this stuff.

I watched this hour long show in about 10 minutes. That's how long it took to reveal the bottom 3 of Lacey Brown, Paige Miles and Tim Urban. Then the suspense builds as they select the one to get the boot this week, which is Lacey Brown, who happened to be my highest rated contestant of the week.
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday!

Here are my rankings for week 5, along with the song they performed.
Selection choice this week was any song that has been #1 on Billboard hot 100 chart.

1) Lee Dewyze
....Box Tops - The Letter
2) Aaron Kelly
....Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing
3) Crystal Bowersox
....Janis Joplin - Me & Bobby McGee
4) Tim Urban
....Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love
5) Casey James
....Huey Lewis & The News - The Power Of Love
6) Katie Stevens
....Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry
7) Michael Lynch
....Percy Sledge - When A Man Loves A Woman
8) Siobhan Magnus
....Stevie Wonder - Superstition
9) Andrew Garcia
....Marvin Gaye - I Heard It Through The Grapevine
10) Didi Benami
......Linda Rondstadt - You're No Good
11) Paige Miles
......Phil Collins - Against All Odds

The bottom three this week were Tim Urban, Katie Stevens and Paige Miles
with Paige getting the axe, and rightfully so. That was bad.
