1) Archuleta (amazing vocal, complex and controlled. nice interpretation of the song. the whole thing was well played. his lower register is an issue though)
2) Hernandez (I was so shocked by this vocal. It just seemed to come out of nowhere. He was having fun and it was contagious. Easily the first contestant that
I've felt could put on a real concert.) 3) Cook (found him off putting up until now but he really delivered, strong vocal, great stage presence, and the
hair is slowly becoming less painful to look at, if he'd cut it off he might even be kind of cute) 4) Chikezie (I find him really annoying in interview
segments but this was a pretty great performance. he was really aiming to entertain and the vocal was pretty good) 5) Noriega (solid vocal. boring arrangement.
he has the personality to do something more fun later on down the road) 6) Castro (bad song choice, rough vocal. he wouldn't be this high this week if the
competition weren't so weak) 7) Robbie (ugh. he's filler. but he does an okay karaoke rock song) 8) Luke (yes he's pretty, but something about him
as a performer makes me feel un!comfortable!) 9) Jason Y (mediocre vocal, I might hate him less if he got rid of that ridiculous streak) 10) Michael (vocal
alternated between lazy and grating as hell)
