IDOL has clearly left "idle" behind, with fabulous choices for the top thirteen contenders. Ten earned America's top votes, as three wild cards were selected by the judges. My favorites are numbered, but in no particular order. Joe's roster includes even more, but I thought to narrow the field! I truly like these six and consider all to be possibilities to go the distance. I did mention #3, Philip Phillips, while the masses were trying out; but he now has a boatload of competition. In an interesting twist, the judges brought #4, Jermaine Jones, back into the competition, after giving him the boot, last week. America then voted him into the top ten. His beautiful, powerful baritone voice is unusual IDOL fodder; but he's a major talent.
Next week, the girls choose from Whitney's catalogue, as the boys select Stevie Wonder songs.
We shall see, 'cause we are still hooked.
Here's to the music.
Update 3/14: Jermaine got the boot, and rightfully so. He snowed the producers by concealing information that disqualifies him from the show.
