Carp Speaks on the Nine

Last night was digital download night sponsored by iTunes. In essence, our contestants had the choice of virtually any song recorded throughout the existence of mankind. But for the most part our Idols kept things to the last 30 years. Here is my breakdown of last night's action:

1. Adam Lambert -- Looking more and more like Kurt Russell with his recent coiffures.

2. Kris Allen -- This guy is slowly but surely coming into his own.  Could be a darkhorse for the ultimate crown.

3. Scott McIntyre -- Sporting a Kirk Cameron-styled "Growing Pains" mullet could Scotty be the forgotten third member of Air Supply?

4. Danny Gokey --Great vocals, boring performance, but he is a race horse among snails according to Simon.

5. Allison Iraheta -- Was that a tape measure down the front of her dress?  I actually liked her outfit in a trashy sort of way.

6. Lil Rounds -- You've heard the term 'playing not to lose'.  Ol' Lil is singing not to lose.  She has completely lost her groove thing.

7. Anoop Desai -- Borrowing a left over jacket from Michael Jackson Week, Noop Dog sang like a frat boy trying to deliver the Usher. Oh yeah.

8. Matt Giraud -- Matt reverted to his hideous Hollywood-Coldplay performance with a self indulgent Fray cover. 

9. Megan Joy -- Tattoo Barbie singing Bob Marley?  A train wreck waiting to happen.  It was her best performance to date but it was still awful.

Should Go Home: Megan Joy

Will Go Home: Matt Giraud

Carp and I bombed this week... both taking a break from our Megan Joy "go home" prediction in favor of booties not even in the bottom three.

Carp scores 2 points for getting Anoop and Megan right. I get just 1 point for placing Megan in the bottom.

Season totals to date: John 11, Carp 10

I had two right in the bottom three and correctly predicted Megan would leave. How many points does that get me?
