Ditto! At first when he started singing a cappella, I was like "WOW, he's brave" but it was amazing. Absolutely amazing.

I was talking to my mom about the show afterwards, and saying what I liked and dislike about the final 3.

The reason I don't like Carrie, is I guess to me it doesn't seem like her singing is soulful. It's just she's out there and having fun, which is good, but I think an actual music artist has to be soulful. It's like she's just singing kareoke at a bar or club. She just seems like any other singer to me.

I think Bo and Vonzell have a lot of soul in their singing and they have fun as well. They seem so different and unique to me. They both seem more professional and into the music than Carrie does.

Another thing I think.. When Carrie performs, the music is basically the show. Her voice just acompanies it. As to Bo and Vonzell, their voices are really used in their performances.

I'm watching it right now, and I think it may come down to Bo and Vonzell. Bo is definitely the favorite, and I think he'll win. It's always hard when you get down to 2 or 3 good contestants, because it's harder to decide who to dump! I agree, Bo was good, and Vonzell sounded pretty good on "I'll never love this way again". I liked (forgot his name's) comment on her, though, "Watch the smile, this is supposed to be a sad song"

I think that Bo is my favorite right now and I hope he wins. My second favorite would be Vonzell because she's very talented and very likeable too.

**carole** · 05-18-2005, 05:39 PM

Right well I still have a way's to go to see that performance of Bo's yet, he is my all time favourite, but I really think Vonzell is probably a better singer all round, now don't go throwing stones at me, as you all know I JUST LOVE BO.

I would be happy to see either Bo or Vonzell win it, but it would be neat to see a rocker like Bo win .

Carrie is a sweet person from what I see of her and she adores animals folks, but I agree with what most of you say, she is lacking something, her voice is great, but she does not deliver the goods every week, whereas Bo and Vonzell do I think.

Did ya see Bo loves animals too, has kitties and doggies,what a lucky girl his girlfriend is.!!!!

Scott and Anthony are still with us, I like Anthony, and I so hope Scott gets voted off before him, Scott is such a dork., he should have gone long ago, way before Anwar and Nadia, they were way better than him by far.

Now remember folks, if this thread continues DONT BE TELLING ME THE WINNER PLEASE.

OH MY GOSH I just watched the voting off last night, again I am gobsmacked, If I did not know better I would swear most of America are tone deaf.

Constantine should never have been voted off, Scott should have been, I feel outraged that this guy is still in the picture, I just simply cannot believe it, as Constantine was so popular with the girls, even Paula fancied him I am sure lol, since she was crying her heart out over him leaving.

I suppose Anthony will be voted off before this loser, unbelievable.

They are screening AI at 5pm here, which is a bad time for me, I am beginning to make our dinner, but I still manage inbetween preparation to watch the show, it used to be night time viewing, not sure why TVNZ changed it.

Fancy Vonzell being in the bottom three, that also was a suprise.

**catnapper** · 05-19-2005, 04:14 PM

Ah, so Constantine was voted off t you last night. I was SHOCKED because I loved his style. I honestly all along thought the bottom three would have been him, Carrie and Bo. Dont; ask me why, thats just how I had it.

**carole** · 05-19-2005, 04:53 PM

Me too Kim, although I am glad to see Vonzell in there too, but I think it would be a nice change for a rocker to win, vonzell is not all that different to Fantasia IMO, although a somewhat softer singer I think, Fantasia just reminds me of too much a gospel singer, she screams too much for my liking.

**RedHedd** · 05-19-2005, 06:31 PM

Hate to bust your bubble, but Vonzell got voted off last night. The fight to the finish is between Bo and Carrie .... my votes are going to Bo!

**carole** · 05-19-2005, 08:19 PM

Hey you are not supposed to tell me, all the suspense is gone now.

oh well I sure hope Bo WINS it too, Carrie is great too and I would be happy for her to win, but Bo is hotter than hot and I so would love him to win it, NOW DON'T BE TELLING ME THE WINNER PLEASE. I can see I am gonna have to delete this thread soon, before you spill the beans.

I promise not to tell ya!

**carole** · 05-19-2005, 08:27 PM

HA HA Kim you really think I can stay away from a thread I started, not on your nelly, but I will just have to , because I can see it is going to accidentally get blurted out here if I don't

you guy's are no good at keeping secrets lol

**micki76** · 05-19-2005, 11:49 PM

Well, all I've been doing is watching Idol and obsessing over Bo. Never been so intrigued with a singer. I got my tickets yesterday at the presale for the AI4 tour. Just. To. See. Bo.

I've always hated AI, but I caught his "Whipping Post" performance accidentally and have been glued to the danged TV since. Thank God for tivo, I keep watching all my saved AI eppy's over and over. I think I need Bo therapy. Maybe go to BB annonymous.

But how can you not have the HOTS for this guy?:

*sigh*

And if you didn't already adore him, watch this:

Breathtaking isn't he?

LOL!!!

I actually missed most of this week's episode....

I saw the first three songs, but missed the rest. I hear that was a bad thing to do, that Bo was awesome. I will NOT miss this week!!!

**carole** · 05-20-2005, 04:21 AM

Thanks Micki for the great pics of Bodelicious, guess who is on my Desktop now, ya know he reminds me of Bob Segar.

Rock on Bo and win this competition.

Amy, you can download Bo's second performance (In A Dream) from the link I posted in my previous post.

It'll be worth the wait, I promise.

Carole, it was rumored that he would sing a Bob Seger song on the last show. I wish the judges pick would've been a Bob Seger song, instead of what was chosen for him.

I'll attach my favorite screencap from last weeks show, too!
