Earth, Wind and Fire! I’m so loving all these songs. Only Sway sounds terrible. Just because you hit the high one doesn’t mean you can miss all the other ones. Who told him he could do Philip Bailey? ---

Sway: Why not just wear a shirt that says “BOY BAND”? The hat, the falsetto? Didn’t work for me. ---

> [@Biggirl](#): > > You are the whitest person ever to thing this is a Stevie Wonder song! > > I keed! I keed! I keed because. . . well, you know why. I knew it was Jackson 5 as soon as I posted. :o I thought Sway was terrible. The judges were out of their minds. He was WAY too falsetto. Every dog on my block is going crazy. ---

I don’t think we’ve ever heard Bon Jovi on AI before. This is a good choice for Chris’ voice. He’s doing a good job with it. I have a feeling he’s done this song with his band about a billion times before. ---

Chris Daughtry is a beautiful, beautiful man and if he doesn’t have children with his wife, he is doing the world a grave disservice. And your bird can _sing!_ ---

Bon Jovi is not my favorite, but Chris doing a real good job with it. Plus I think he’s hot, stupid facial hair or not ---

Half time rankings: 1. Chris 2. Will 3. Patrick 4. Sway 5. David 6. Bucky I felt the quality is overall better than the first six of the gals yesterday. At no point did I plead with my TV “please, please, just stop” like I did about 5 or 6 times last night. Will is the boys’ version of Paris. Good voices overall, but any weakness is easily overshadowed by excessive loveableness. ---

Does anyone remember the baby chick Foghorn Leghorn used to babysit? This kid looks _just_ like him. Don’t like his voice. Not to my taste. ---

Kevin Covais looks like approximately 7 of my ex-boyfriends. He has a surprisingly big voice for such a little, twerpy looking kid. His voice teacher done good, because he’s got excellent control. And, alas, he is also on pitch. _Bravo, little man!_ ---

I saw him kind of lisping a little while he was singing, and aww. The mom in me just wants to vote for him over and over with one hand while I slap Simon with the other. ---

Gideon seems a little, um, simple. But he can sing. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/american-idol-21-22-23-feb/345532.md?page=9) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/american-idol-21-22-23-feb/345532.md?page=11)
