American Idol (2008) - Week 10 - Top 3
April 23, 2008 · Print This Article
Andrew Lloyd Webber week…really? I was definitely skeptical going into last nights show and wondering how some of the contestants were going to fair. Too my surprise, a couple did much better than I thought and the rest did just as I thought - not all that great overall. No doubt A.L.W. has skills when it comes to composition, but this seemed as an odd pairing from the get-go.
My top three are in the following order:
- David Cook
- Carly Smithson
- Syesha Mercado
David Cook continues to impress and last nights belting of Music of the Night was no exception. Is anyone going to beat this guy? Incredible! Actually gave me chills…
Carly Smithson is in the two spot, although it truly was a toss up between her and Syesha. Carly sang Jesus Christ Superstar and did a really, really good job with it. Also impressive.
Syesha Mercado finally showed her personality and was feeling the song One Rock and Roll Too Many. She blew it up and this was definitely the best that I have seen her since she has been on the show. She can have a huge career in musical theater if she wants to - just amazing.
Here are their performances:
David Cook - Music of the Night:
Carly Smithson - Jesus Christ Superstar:
Syesha Mercado - One Rock and Roll Too Many:
miss you guys!!

this was an odd week, with two of the top performances (i agree) being in the bottom 2!! i think the bottom 2 should have been brooke (even though i love her) and jason. Archuleta was awesome again this week i thought too. it’s getting tough….
Archuleta has been consistently good and I think that is my problem with him. He has not really stretched himself to do anything spectacular in my opinion. It always sounds the same and he is beginning to become forgettable and boring.
