8 for 8: #americanidol is gr8

So it's the top 8! Time was precious last night, so I'm having to make short work of my feedback - so in celebration of the top 8, I'll be offering 8 words of feedback for each performance. Here we go!

Jessica: "Blue eyed lie" - Lisa Marie Presley wishes for this dominant performance. 

CJ: "Soul Shine" - Almanns didn't have great pitch either, I suppose. 

Jena & Alex: "Just Give me a reason" - no judging on duets, Mraz and denim skate...

Sam: "Lego House" - first candles now lamps; can't take the dreamy. 

Jessica & Caleb: "stop dragging my heart around" - my favorite so far but I'm not judging...

Malaya: "ain't no way" -  Ain't no way to not love this voice. 

Dexter: "One Mississippi" - nothing quite like a great solid country balladeer.

Malaya & Sam: "Lucky" - maybe worst version of high school musical reenactment. 

Jena: "rolling in the deep" - she looks absolutely fantastic and sounds even better

Dexter & CJ: "alright" - so thanks hootie we have you to blame...

Caleb: "chain of fools" - it's like the Commitments all over again meatloaf. 

Alex: "Fairytales" - with his own music this kid comes alive. 

So I am wondering what do you think?
