Which of this years american idol contestants do you like best and why? Who would you have sent home by now?

i agree with about everything u said except lee, i think he's realy realy good and i think he has the best voice out of every1, but thats just me:):) and ellen is hilarious!!! but i kinda wish paula was still on the show, she was soo nice:) and i absolutely agree that andrew just NEEDS to go!!! i dont like him at all!!! i only liked him wen he did the straight up song.i think that katie has the best voice out of the girls, but she realy needs to like find out who she wants to be and what kind of artist.

i also like aaron kelly a lot!!! i love his country style voice!! and hes adorable!!! i want him to be in the top 2, along with lee

and tim is sooo cute and adorbale, but he doesnt have any talent, i mean, compared to the other contestants, hes not very good, but just remember that tim had to pass many rounds to get this far, even tho he didnt make it to the top 24, he still had to pass all those rounds, so he cant be THAT bad.

ya, so this is prety much my opinion.

go lee and aaron!

I really miss Lilly and Lacey. They were my original fave girls, but now I really love Crystal and Siobhan because they're so unique. They completely break the whole Kelly/Carrie mold in both looks and music style and are a breath of fresh air to this show. I'd love to see them in our first female finale since season 3. that would be awesome.

I also really love Lee and I see a lot of potential in him. He needs to work on his confidence,and everything,but he has a great voice. I downloaded his 2 Indie CDs from cdbaby and they're really good, so if he got to do a real CD, I know it would be awesome. He definitely has the voice to win, he just has to believe that he can. If he can find that confidence, I wouldn't be surprised to see him in the finale or even as our next American Idol. I would be perfectly happy with him placing 3rd,though.

Next, I would put Big Mike and Casey, who have been pretty consistant throughout the whole competition. I see a lot of potential in them too.

Then I'd put Aaron, who has that David Archuleta thing going on. He's a cute kid and has a nice voice for his age, but he's a bit young for my liking. My mom thinks he's adorable,though :). He's her fave.

Then I would put Andrew and Katie,who have had hits and misses. I think both of them are actually pretty good when they just follow their hearts and do the music they love and are good at (andrew's acoustic and Katie's R&B/Pop), regardless of what the judges think. I think if they could just do their thing and not listen to the judges, they'd be okay.

My last place goes to Tim Urban. Why is he still there? I'm not even sure why the judges called him back for the Top 24 in the first place (they should've brought back Thaddeus). He hasn't had a good performance yet and it seems like the whole thing is a joke to him. i really hope he leaves tomorrow.

My order

9th TIM, PLEASE!!! :p

8th Katie

7th Andrew

6th Aaron

5th Casey

4th Big Mike

3rd Lee

Runner-up Siobhan

Winner Crystal !

I really wish Lilly and Lacey were still there in Tim and Katie's places,though :(

PS I love Ellen on the show. She's hilarious. And I know that most don't understand why she's there, but I think it was a good idea to bring someone in who isn't in the industry. That way, you have someone who represents the average music listeners of America, who,after all, are the ones who do the voting. This show isn't run by music professionals, it's run by regular people who know nothing about music except for what they like, so I think it's only fair to have a judge who represents us.

My favorites are: 1)Aaron, he may not have the biggest voice of the bunch but I LOVE his sweet country voice 2)Lee, his voice is incredible.. he reminds me of David Cook 3)Crystal, she has amazing vocals 4)Casey, he's an awesome performer.

I also like Michael because of his nice big voice, but his style of music doesn't really appeal to me, I'm not really into R&B/Soul.

And these are the people I want eliminated.. 1)Tim, he should've been eliminated weeks ago, he sucks! 2)Siobhan, her screaming is so overrated.. I think the judges and the people wouldn't like her as much if she didn't scream in her performances. Her screaming is annoying and screechy, it doesn't sound good, unlike Adam Lambert's. 3)Katie, she has good vocals but her performances are pretty weak in my opinion. 4) Andrew - Ugh, I don't like him at all.. he's overrated!

My ideal finale would be Lee-Aaron.. it would be like David-David, lol.

I like Lee, Tim, and Aaron the best. For various reasons!

I wish Katie, Casey, and Siobhan would go home!

ANDREW GARCIA IS THE BEST.!!!!!!!(:
