Hopefully, next week, during his BIRTHDAY (and why do I know this?!) he will sing a brilliant song.

You think THAT’S bad! I sent him a birthday card!

Cannot wait for Neil Diamond week. Hopefully I'll still be thanking Nigel afterward... Prime -- as usual we are on the same wavelength. I would love an all male top 3 that did not include Archuletta. And for those that think that Huhchuletta is unbeatable, I beg to differ. He has shown that anything outside of a ballad is difficult for him. The audience will give him one bad performance, but I think another bad performance could make him vulnerable. Plus, I still worry about his health. Cherokee -- thank you for the article on Phil. Is it wrong that my eyes tear up a little every time I read about good stuff happening for Phil? Squee!!! This contest is going to get really, really interesting right around top 6. Kat — I too love, love, love Neil Diamond. Cannot wait for Neil Diamond week. Hopefully I’ll still be thanking Nigel afterward…

He's great looking and hot but can be goofy which is a great combination. Ace is more boy band cute to me and that's probably because of his cheeziness when singing like pointing to his scar. :laugh_tb: They’re both really good looking but I prefer the more manly look of Michael, Kari.

Besides "Hell Yeah" I am drawn to "Evermore". Raw, stripped and not a sequin in sight. May I also say, I'm kinda surprised to find someone of your generation appreciating this side of Neil. It warms my heart. I so agree, Kat. Besides “Hell Yeah” I am drawn to “Evermore”. Raw, stripped and not a sequin in sight.

Hopefully, next week, during his BIRTHDAY (and why do I know this?!) he will sing a brilliant song.

I think one of the contestants needs to tackle Neil’s “Men Are So Easy.” Maybe Michael Johns or Brooke White. (If Syesha chooses it and changes the title to “Girls Are So Easy,” I’ll kill myself.)

Other suggestions:

David Archuleta: “Solitary Man”
Jason Castro: “Song Song Blue”
David Cook: “I Am…I Said” (get him out of the rock box but keep the gruffness in his voice)
Syesha Mercado: “Hello Again”
Kristy Lee Cook: Maybe “I’m a Believer,” but she’ll probably do “America” in an act of desperation
Ramiele Malubay: “I Got the Feelin’ (Oh No No)”
Carly Smithson: “Hell Yeah”
Brooke White: “Play Me”
Chikezie: “Delirious Love”

If Amanda was still there, I would have suggested “Thank the Lord For the Nighttime.”
