Tonight the top 10 ladies showed off their 70’s stuff.

Carly Smithson did Heart’s “Crazy On You” and it was good but Simon said she really needs to choose a song that showcases her talents a little better. He calls her the girl to beat in the competition.

The lovely Syesha Mercado looked and sounded wonderful tonight but the judges didn’t like her choice of song.

There is something about Brooke White that just seems so sweet and genuine. Tonight she went with Carly Simon’s “You’re So Vain” and brought her guitar on stage with her. It’s not like she is an amazing vocalist or anything but she is very talented. Randy and Paula loved her choice of song and as for Simon? - “Okay, Brooke I absolutely loved it!”

Ramiele Malubay did a nice job tonight but it wasn’t enough to impress the judges like last week. Randy called it okay vocally, but not as good as last week. Paula said the song didn’t show her voice off and Simon actually agrees with Paula. He calls her one of the top 3 singers in the competition but that song wasn’t her best.

Contrary to what everybody believed during the auditions, Kristy Lee Cook just doesn’t seem to have what it takes. I didn’t like her performance at all tonight. Her vocals were even scratchy and verging on shouting towards the end. Randy said it was a 100% improvement from last week and he liked it. Paula tells her that she’s back. Simon tells her she needs to figure out who she is as a singer by sticking to a more country sound.

Hmmm… I don’t know about you but I wasn’t all that impressed with these girls.  Stay tuned for the 2nd half coming up shortly.
