Ah, again I’m all by myself liking something. I loved the way she changed up the song. And I know how to spell her name-- even more than she does! ---

Lacy Brown is doing a version of the Dixie Chicks version of Landslide. What a mess. ---

Lacey, oh Lacey. Landslide? More like CRAPslide. \*see what I did there? ---

Lacey’s got on horrible clown make-up and she sounds like a banshee. I liked her less than than Ashley. ---

Sorry, Lacey, but Lilly out-quirkied you. Did she forget the words in there? ---

I agree with Randy…Lacey was horrible. I thought it was cats outside mating. ---

Ouch…I wanted Lacey to be better than that. I thought she was better in her audition. ---

I didn’t really think Lacey was as bad as the judges said. I didn’t think she was _good_ (and copying a Dixie Chicks cover of a Stevie Nicks song is really lame), but I didn’t think she was any worse than the rest of them ---

Michelle is pretty good. Wondering if they hid her on purpose. ---

Ok, Michelle looked great, the singing not so hot. ---

Michelle was good. Wonder if she’ll be good when she has to get away from familiar material. ---

Serviceable. I agree with Simon, it was good enough to get through. Kara is wrong about not hitting the notes, the notes were fine it was just good enough. Plus she’s got a great name. ---

Didi reminds me far too much of sensitive piano playing girl from a few season ago. My husband thinks she should do an Erika Badu song. I’d be totally in her corner if she did Tyrone. Liked her a lot. ---

Didi is wearing my grandma’s afghan. This song is boring and she’s off-key. ---

It’s really hard for me to respect anybody who thinks a Kara song is a real thing that you should play and sing (or who uses the word, “spiritual”), but Michelle was the best of the night so far. I thought she sounded like Nora Jones on that song (_was_ that a Nora Jones song?). No star power is right, but it’s not like the others do either. I think Haeley is the only one who really has any stage presence so far. ---

Simon is a big assed liar. When someone does something unique he calls it strange and weird. He doesn’t want different, he wants his next Top 40 money-maker.
