9:35--Idols and their Idols. Rascal Flatts and Carrie? Not bad. Kenny G, Anwar and Anthony? Fucking brutal. Nadia, Constantine and Jessica with Kenny Wayne Sheperd? A poor man's version of a Super Bowl performance a few years ago. More brutality. After seeing Constantine again, man is he a cheesy, screwball half-a-rocker. Nikko, Savol and George Benson? Couldn't Savol's plane have been delayed? Does he belong on the same stage as Benson? They definitely should have just sang backup to George. Vonzell and Bill Preston? Where was Vonzell's Dad? I miss that guy. Babyface with Lindsey and Mikalah? Love that little vixen Mikalah. She can't sing, you say? Blasphemy! And finally, they dug up Lynyrd Skynyrd. Holy shit. One of them actually looked dead. Only the strumming of the guitar was able to convince me otherwise.
9:47--A George Huff/Jon Peter Lewis dual sighting from year 3? NO WAY!! No more unworthy top 12er than JPL. What was that guy's appeal? What a tool. He made Anthony Fedorov look like David Lee Roth.
9:53--The big moment. Carrie looks freaking hot. Nice ad placement for Marquis Jet. Randy says they are both winners. Paula blows some smoke. Simon gets queer and sentimental. Did I mention that Carrie looks hot in that dress?
9:55--Carrie wins. Not the best choice. My wife is bummed, big time. Don't forget that she was never, ever in the bottom three. Not even once. Bo was. Let's hear this "new" single, "Inside Your Heaven". Not so great. The best song was that first one, "A Moment Like This" by Kelly Clarkson. Shamefully, that's on my iPod. Carrie reels in her emotions to do a decent job. Good season. I'll officially forget about every one of these contestants. Its not about the music. Its about the human drama, playing out 2 nights a week in my living room. When does Season 5 start?
