Can't believe that James and Nathan in the bottom 3 !!! :o

I liked all but one performance tonight - wasn't keen on Kim's
Also thought she showed a bit of 'negative' attitude towards James Morrison and everyone in general.
Might lose her votes - reminded me of Sabrina !

I really don't know who's going home next.

O:)


Hopefully not Hayley :-bd . Another solid performance, which was an interesting interpretation of "Tainted Love" - although thought that she could have raised the bar a bit further again with it.

From this point in, some really good singers will start being eliminated. For what its worth, reckon Kate might be next to go.

Thought that Kim did very well to keep her temper in check after some really peculiarly timed criticism from most of the judges about her motives for entering the competition. :? . Why pick all these weeks in to ask her some of those questions?

Yup Kate's finding it hard to keep her country girl act going.
Loved James' performance.
Hayley was gold again.
I didn't see Stan.
Thought Toby sung well too and Marcia was right, he has a look of modesty and kindness on his face when he sings. Don't know if it will keep him going.

They tend to find someone every week to pick on, quite harshly sometimes.
They probably have their favourites too.

Judging by the audience, I'd say 12-15 year olds. ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Voting this year is a bit suss. Voting lines close at 3am on the Monday morning, only about 6 hours after the show finishes. They have a guest mentor every week, the guest mentor is hardly gonna waste time on someone that is going to get evicted the following weekend. The person that is evicted on a Sunday night has surely been told earlier in the week they are going to be evicted and will not be mentored that week?

One recent mentor Ross Wilson in the clip bit they show of the mentoring even made mention that Kim was in the bottom 3 for that week (as she was about an hour earlier) so Ross knew that Kim was going to be in the bottom 3 in a few days time on the night he was also a guest judge.

I saw a few oldies in there too :lol:
You wouldn't think they'd make them wait all week would you.

However, when Ross mentioned she was in the bottom three,
She actually had been in the bottom three the week before also,
Because we picked up on that too O:)

Well Kim gone.
I think she lost votes with her 'attitude' last week.

I thought Toby opened the show, did a really good job.
I still really love James,
And think that Nathan in the bomb :lol:

So hope he makes it through and wins,
would love to see him live at Clipsal next year !!

Still think Toby and Kate's 9 lives are nearly up.

O:)

I'm putting $300 on Stan Walker.

Talent to burn, only one that looks like winning, never been bottom 3.

Gay or not gay he's in with as good a chance as any - IMO

Even if you don't win,
It's proven you can go on and make just as much money as the winner anyway !

No, he's a douche. He's not unique, he's not special.

If he was to put out an album, what style would you like him to do?

Who is his target audience?

You can not honestly say to me he is the most talented, intriguing person on that show.

Like Toby, we've already got a Toby, his name is Damien Leith.

We DON'T have a Stan, we DON'T have a Hayley.

We DON'T have a James, we HAVE some Kate's and she will go.

So SHOULD Nathan.

We are all entitled to our opinions/thoughts/tastes.
And everyone's vary - it's in the hands of the voting public so anything could happen
I don't think he's a douche but/and as I said I don't particularly care who wins !

I just enjoy the show O:)

Who's going home next week?
Who's song/s did you enjoy the most last night?
Who do you think failed?

One thing for sure - Dicko was on angry pills !

You said you were going for Nathan. You can't. He's a douche.
Bottom three out of: Kate, Hayley, James, Toby.
Liked James' performances the most, Hayley's "These Days" rendition was cringe-worthy, just coz that song sucks in this format.
Kate looked out of sorts in her first song.
Didn't watch Nathan, don't like him.

I've seen enough of his performances to know it would be a travesty to see him win.

His last song was the best performance of the night.

James second, IMO.
