The Girls...

Tonight on AI, it was the girls turn since Crystal Bowersox had some sort of illness yesterday and they had to switch the days.  Opening the show, wearing her shabby chic and dreads, her performance was excellent and she's my new favorite

Lily Allen, with her white hair and heavy makeup, is truly original and has a great voice and gave Crystal a run for her money. She's quirky and is very recordable.

But for me, it was Katelyn Epperly who I thought stole the show, sitting behind the white piano and singing in a slow, sultry tone.  Despite the fact that the song was slow,it was excellent and I really felt it.

Also quite spectacular was Siobhan Magnus, who sang an Aretha Franklin song and hit a note that a white girl shouldn't be able to hit.  She is definitely the dark horse in the competition, always doing something that you don't expect.

There's a lot of good talent this year... and with some bad song choices and nerves... the girls are either hit or miss.  With half of them stating that they just want to have fun up on the stage and the other half trying too hard... it's a bit of a frustration.
