No way can it just be Mariah songs, she has an insane range. I bet the Mariah night will be #1 Hits, since she just surpassed Elvis in total number of number one hits (I think she has 18 now).

She does not have that elastic a voice, and if she stayed more within her vocal comfort zone she'd have been a lot better off. And I agree totally that "I Believe" is cheese whiz on toast. LaKisha hit all the notes, and it helped bring her down even so. 2) My fave Dave is such an ingenious musician, with such a good feel for what he can do with a song, that I'm really looking forward to his take on "Innocent." One thing that consistently impresses me is that he's not just a master-blaster vocalist, though he can definitely wail -- he's also got a lot of beauty and color and shading in his vocal range and style and timbre. Even if he copies an arrangement, his voice is very distinctive. And he isn't afraid to sound pretty, as well as rockin' rough. 3) Respectful disagreement about voting for the best of the night. One thing AI has proved time and again is that it plants booby traps with those crazy "theme nights" that can make the best performers look bad. God help Cookie, Michael Johns, and the other good ones they have to sing Andrew Lloyd Webber or Mariah Carey tunes. A few thoughts (trouble with posting, so forgive me if this is redundant:

Also looking forward to David C. I am undecided which one I like best - a good dilemma to have. David C jumped up 1,000 points in my book last week with Little Sparrow. Jason may not be my style, but he's just so freakin' adorable and sweet. I really hope he does well.

Someone will be going home. Yeah, Michael will either knock it out of the park or completely bomb. That's a tough song to sing. I hope he has the upper range for it. At least, if nothing else, we FINALLY get a few songs written after, you know, 1990. No, XO, there is a separate results show on Thursday night. Someone will be going home.
