What were voters thinking on American Idol ??? ......?
when James got voted off tonight !!!!! He was the best singer in the group of 3 left !! Scotty is fine with his little 'ole country songs --but James has one of the most awesome voices ever !! He got ripped off for sure !! The only compensation is that he probably will have a recording contract tomorrow and a tour of his own by next year. That's how good he is -- sc$%ew Idol -- he doesn't need them !!
Another thing about James -- to be such an amazing singer/performer when he struggles with turret's and mild autism !! What an accomplishment. I am a special ed. teacher and have worked with students with many kinds of disorders. For James to come as far as he has is incredible !

Great question girlnamedmaria! Yes I believe James was the best singer out of a very talented bunch this year on American Idol and was shocked when they said he was gone, That is the one problem with American Idol is that sometimes the voters just don't get it, and the most talented and best singers are unfortunately sent home. When Casey was sent home, I was mad and was also upset when Pia had to leave. Scotty is good and will have a great country career, Lauren has a great voice and should do well probably in country or soft rock and Haley is tremendous with about anything she sings. I really thought that Scotty would be leaving tonight, not James. I agree that James Durbin has the most awesome voce of them all and the voters got it all wrong.

The voting lines are rigged. I didn't vote yesterday but last week, I voted for James and got a different number. I tried to call it back and it said it was busy for about 15 minutes. I couldn't get through and gave up. I tested another line and it wasn't busy. Hallie's line is never busy. Isn't that strange? Her line is never busy but people are voting for her?
He was never in the bottom 3 or 2 until tonight. He hadn't had a bad performance. Wtf is going on? People love him. It's the Pia thing all over again. Are his fans truly voting or do they expect him to make it through, so they end up not voting?
YOU DAMN STRAIGHT HE DOESN'T NEED IDOL! Chris Daugtry was shockingly eliminated during this week. This is only the beginning. I hope James does well. He's an amazing singer and over all entertainer. I'd love to see him in concert.

People was assuming he would of made the top three
I did not think last night was his best night
I thought the Judges did not help saying how great he was
His fans thought he was save
Scotty can stand up and not sing, and get votes
The two girls, the judges were hard on and their fans knew they needed votes
Especially Haley
I have always voted for James, Lauren and Haley
Last night I did not vote for James, assuming he was safe
I thought he would of made the bottom two, with Haley leaving
I thought Lauren and Scotty would be top two

it should have been haley, scotty and james in the final three. Lauren should have gone home. I was shocked that james went home. I thought he would win the competition. but honestly scotty and james are equal when it comes to talent. only scotty's voice seems natural. like he doesn't have to try hard to sing as well as he does. he has a natural talent.
it broke my heart to see james crying and saying he tried so hard and did things not done before on the show. it was almost like he was begging for them not to send him home. I can tell, he didn't understand it either. he was blindsided like pia was.

I am with you, I just knew James was going to be there and I was worried about Scotty but both of the guys were good, they should have dumped one of the girls did not make a difference to me.

it quite is all a remember of opinion. for my area, usa's mistake replaced into Adam. The order replaced into maximum appropriate aside from him. human beings ought to have long gone homestead in this order for my area: Adam, Matt, Allison, and Danny, with Kris triumphing. i've got been balloting for him by way of fact the commencing up. there replaced into only one thing approximately Adam's form of music which regarded overly unusual to me. finally, i'll confess Kris's variety ought to by no capacity attain Adam's, yet i might say Adam used way too lots vibrato, and to acceptable it off Kris had a nicer tone (the total reason I enjoyed him). don't get me incorrect, Adam is a huge singer, and that i wish he and Kris the two bypass a techniques (besides as Danny, Allison, and Matt, all applicable performers).

@Nicole- huh, that's funny, because I voted for both Haley and James last night, and Haley's was busy for like an hour straight!
And you made an error in your question. You accidently wrote "thinking" instead of "smoking."

ok he could perform and everything, but he did NOT need to scream in ever single song. i get that he can. i just dont find it neccesy in all of those songs. and also he was cocky..you gotta admit.
ps. he mite sing metal but if he is crying on stage like 5 times, he is not an actaul metal.
thumbs me down..idc haha
Source(s): my fave is haley. she mite not always choose the rite songs. but her and casey are/were the most unique and awesome singers. comin from a jazz/blues fan - Kristin NicoleLv 41 decade ago
Haley should have went home! But scotty has the best voice out of all of them!
