American Idol Power Rankings V.3

And here we go...



1. Allison Iraheta

This is the first week Allison didnt just blow the place away, but it wasn't really her thing. That said she still did very well and didn't do anything in my mind to drop.

2. Lil Rounds

This also was week when it wasn't really Lil Rounds' genre. She still showed amazing vocal talent and like Allison did nothing to move down.

3. Danny Gokey

Danny did another really heartfelt song with Carrie Underwood's "Jesus Take The Wheel." The top 3 is what it is, the cream of this competition in my mind and until one sets themself apart they will be a cohesive top 3.

4. Matt Giraud

So I've probably been more down on this guy than I should have been and there is no denying his vocal talent, but there's just something about him I just don't like. That said I can't deny his talent and he's a fast riser.

5. Anoop Desai

Anoop really put himself back in the competition last week and showed the talent I thought he had. I think you gotta watch out for this guy because of his likeability.

6. Kris Allen

Kris is a real darkhorse in this competition. Like Anoop he has alot of likeability. He's got a good Jason Mraz singer/songwriter feel.

7. Scott Macintyre

When Scott first auditioned I really thought he had a chance to win the whole thing. Since auditions he's really gone downhill. As someone said to me "The only thing he's really got going for him is that he's blind." He really needs to get away from the boring sad piano music.

8. Megan Joy

She's hot but she has a gigantic arm tattoo thats hideous. Last week she had her best vocal of the competition but still not quite good enough.

9. Michael Sarver

See his steady decline on the rankings? Not so much a product of how bad he is, but how badly I overrated him at the beginning. Stop making funny faces and go home.

10. Adam Lambert

About 3 notes into his version of the great Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" I decided he would be at the bottom of this list. Look spare me the commentary I know the guy has range and talent but his flare and his poor song choice downgrade him. Alot of this competition is song selection and he butchered Cash. That cannot be forgiven.
