Time to play catch up - technical difficulties with the website prevented us from blogging last week so we'll speed through this to get back on track.

Elimination: Robbie should not have gone. I don't know why Simon insists he's not authentic. Alexandrea was also robbed.

Alaina and Jason Y. both needed to go.

Boys this week: I am not a David Cook fan by any means - but that rendition of the ultra-lame "Hello" was fantastic - Randy was right, it could easily be a hit single on the radio. I may rethink my opinion of him. Jason was likewise a standout. Little David was good but not at his best.

Needs to go this week: Danny Noriega and Luke.

Girls this week:

Needs to go this week: Liked Kristy Lee's countrified Journey cover. Also liked Asia'h.

Needs to go but won't: Carly and Amanda. They grate on me.

Deserves to go: Kady. Sweet but she ain't cutting it.
