Final 6 - Performances
Kate (I Wish)
Never puts a foot wrong vocally. Kyle seems determined to avoid another Casey Donovan scenario by continually criticising her appearance, but it could work in the opposite way by encouraging votes for her, rather than against her.
Lee (Ben)
Anyone who watched Lee's performance on Friday night knew this was coming. Its a given - he is the worst singer in the top 30 - but he's got the popular look. Will it be enough for him to weather disasters like last night? He's stuffed when he can't speed the song up and turn the volume up to suit his style. If he's got any brains that will be the last ballad he attempts outside of the shower.
Anne (If I Were You're Woman)
She also never screws up vocally, but she just doesn't impress me. Anne never really lets loose the way that Emily and (to a lesser degree) Kate do. That she never draws any negative comments suggests that she is a judges favourite.
Dan S (Standing On Shaky Ground)
Probably his best performance so far, but I fear he has only moved from shaky ground to thin ice. I don't think it was enough to push him out of the bottom 3.
Dan E (Reach Out)
Great singer, dreadlocks make him stand out - BUT - his performances seem lacking. Did anyone see Bo Bice from the last American Idol? He used to grab the mic stand and strut around like he owned the stage. Apart from Lee the boys seem to be incapable of moving. If Dan is to win this thing he's gonna have to do more than stand and deliver, 'cos all 3 of the girls belt him out of the park in that department.
Emily (River Deep, Mountain High)
Probably deserved the touchdown. She has been giving 110% for weeks now and vocally sets the bar for the rest of the contestants. My only criticism would be her dress sense - a little too much of an op-shop/urban mix up for my liking. But hey, at least she's got the hair under control.
My bottom 3: Dan S, Kate, Lee - with Dan S to go.
