It's Disney Night! Katy is dressed up as Mrs. Jumbo, and her cute puppy is in a Dumbo costume, poor thing!  So far we've seen Arthur, Just Sam, Jonny, and Louis make it through. I didn't think Louis did very well. There were some good parts, but a few notes that were pretty bad. Like said it got "linear" which I don't know what it meant. Lionel said he lost focus. |

Julia didn't do very well, IMO. Judges thought it was amazing, but commented on how it was too low. It was so quiet/soft, it just didn't sound good to me.
Finale is NEXT week already!
Next up is Francisco. I like the digital Disney backgrounds they're using; super cute. Francisco does fine, he's got a fine voice that it seems we hear lots of every season. Cute boy with a nice voice = goes far on Idol.

Dillon is the last one in, making the top 7 full of the guys! Only two women made it in! Hmm.
Dillon is singing a song from Cars, and he sounds good. Maybe it's because I'm not familiar with this song that makes me like it more. I think a lot of time the typical, classic Disney songs are so overdone it gets boring. So I enjoyed this one a lot!

Now they finally bring Laine on, to sing on his cabin's porch. I'm still suspicious of some kind of falling-out between him and the show; his intro was less than glowing, and they've really gushed over Alejandro numerous times this year. He just sang quickly, no conversation at all. They'll bring him back for the finale, though, so who knows.
Next up is round two: Mother's Day dedications.

Katy tells Jonny she thinks he'll win, or wants him to win.
I'd actually like to see Just Sam win, because she's very talented, but also she's got such an inspiring story, and we've had the cute-boy-winners a lot!!

Personally I would have liked to see Jovin and Sophia make it to the top 7 (wow, still SO soon for that IMO..) over Julia (who did not pick a good song) and Louis. I think that the top 10 alone was telling in what music the country (or at least those watching) are gravitating toward. There is more of a contemporary and indie feel. Ive never been a huge R&B fan or bubble gum pop fan and I think it is nice to see a focus on the bigger talent with musicianship and songwriting involved. I too love Sam, and would like to see her win but I would not be unhappy with pretty much any of the others like Arthur, Jonny, Dillon, or Fransisco win.

Live results next Sunday! Live - whoa, I'll have to make sure I'm tuning in to vote  . This does seem rushed, going from 20 to 1 in just a few weeks? They're doing a good job with the remote performances and editing, wonder why they couldn't spread it out a little longer? Francisco's song for his mom was beautiful. |

Dillon's got such a lovely backyard! I want to go there! His song to his mom was outstanding, too. I think his story would be an inspiration too, so he sure could win.

I agree that Joviin and Sophia should have made it over some of the others.

I liked just about all the kids this year.....really talented people. So Jonny left the girlfriend and drove cross country to stay with his parents? I guess that is over although they both seemed to really care for the other from what we saw during Hollywood week.

I wonder about that. Just Sam did a remote with her grandmother, Jonny could have as well. Hmm

Apparently, Katy gave Sam some tips about putting on make-up. Glad she did as she looked so good. I liked her and Jonny...Julia disappointed me and she has always been in my top three...but as I said everybody is good. Amazing improvement in the quality of the talent when you compare them with the kids who started for the first few years on AI. Except for the the 3 or 4 people who had a chance to win, everybody else sounded like they were doing a song from their HS choral club.

Social media has been really harsh about the girlfriend inserting herself into Jonny’s airtime. Maybe he’s just sheltering her or maybe the show asked him to go home for the Mother’s Day and he was protecting her/them from unnecessary exposure. |
