Bottom Of The Barrel

And then there was the final 4

So finally Ms. Brooke "I cry and pout at nearly everything" White is gone home. She had a great run and could find some sucess as a recording artist, if she could find and/or create some original and personal material. Next week we have songs that shaped/inspired Rock n' Roll [what ever that means]. Consipicy theorist might say this is how the producers make sure David C. gets a little further along and perhaps keeping Jason from going any further. I only point that out because one thing Idol has not done is presented the theme weeks up front but rather as we go along. Perhaps making adjustments as they see fit to shape the outcome for maximum value. Of course that's just the cynical side of me speaking now.

As for song selection, this should be a wide open week. In my humble opinion, the Idols could choose anything from early 50's R & B and Elvis to The Beatles and the britsh movement to Led Zeppelin and the late 70's classic rock stage through Grunge of the early 90's. Since the contestants will sing at least 2 songs [if not 3], I owuld love to see them each pick songs of differing styles. Who really wants to see David A. sing too sappy power ballads anayway?
