Of course we all love David, but does anyone else have any other faves this season? I'm rooting for Brooke, too. I'm also interested in hearing more from Jason Castro, Ramiele, and Michael Johns.

Kristy Lee Cook, David Archuleta, Michael Lee Johns, Alaina Whitaker, and Asia'h Epperson are my other favorites.....now, this will probably change during the show but I can already tell that Cook is going to be my main favorite this year

Well, I liked what I've seen so far from Michael, Kady, and Ramiele.

Renaldo as well:

Renaldo is totally your favorite, eh Danny?

Haha, not quite but he isn't actually that bad of a singer.

Someone on youtube called him pimp from the future.

I know, he wasn't bad! I was almost shocked. It was just the crazy outfit and song that made it so hilarious. Ah... loves it.

I have to say my favorite part of Renaldo's audition is when Paula started "doing" sign language!!

My favorites are at the bottom of every AI 7 site I have haha

Haha that was my favorite, too!


Convenient.

This Renaldo remix is epic:

omg

OMG! If they put that on iTunes, I would totally buy it.

That totally just made my night!!!!

The dancing little boys made me lol.

I started laughing when the dancing boys came on

I know, I was totally not expecting it. That remix makes me want to get up and do some dancing! Or aerobics.

One of Renaldo's many fans doing a cover:

lol I like Renaldo better.

What the heck is up with the picture of Simon on the wall? LOL!

As Renaldo says, Simon gives everyone a chance for fame and to sing to the world....free of charge.

Hahaha. This is turning into the Renaldo thread, apparently.

Well, he was a very interesting contestant.

David and Robbie Carrico are my top two favourites but I also like David Archuleta, and Asia'h Epperson as well.

Jessica Brown, Alaina Whitaker, David Archuletta, Kristy Lee Cook etc.

My other favorite idols so far are:

Amanda Overmeyer
Carly Smithson
Robbie Carrico
David Cook (obivously)

But I am also interested in seeing how these people do:

Kristy Lee Cook
Alaina Whitaker
Kady Malloy
David Archuleta
Michael Lee johns
Alexandrea Lushington (reminds me of a young Aaliyah)

:haha: I love Renaldo, he's getting more and more fans.. he should come out with a single :haha:

Okay all honestly

Michael Johns
Amanda Overmyer

Carly Smithson and Brooke White

Kady Malloy, Michael Johns, and David Archuleta.

I also really like Michael Johns, Carly Smithson, and I kind of like Amanda Overmeyer too.

My other favourites are Michael Johns, Amanda, Carly, Asia'h, Ramiele, Brooke an David Archuleta.

I didn't get to watch Cook until his "All Right Now" and "Hello" performance, so before he came into the picture, I liked Michael Johns escpecially for his Bohemian Rhapsody.

I also like Archuleta and Smithson. For some reason, I always call people by their last names. :P

Michael, Brooke and David A. Initially I liked Carly and Ramiele, too, but the former's voice gives me a headache and the latter has had some boring performances

i kinda like Michael Johns, Alaina Whitaker, Kady Malloy, Kristy Lee Cook, David Hernandez and Carly Smithson


but i love David Cook!

I (did) like Alaina Whitaker, and I also like Brooke White, David Archuleta and Jason Castro.

Ramiele & David A.

But with you guys, it's David C at #1 of my AI 7 list.

David Cook is obviously my favorite... haha....

My favorite female contestant is Brooke White and I also like David Archuleta. He brought his game back tonight.

If he did this with week after week. He'd probably join David C in the Nokia theatre. And it would be a man-to-man-to-girl showdown. And for the final 2, the man-to-girl showdown. If it was David C and Ramiele M. going at it .

I seriously love all the guys so much it's ridiculous. From here on out I will probably cry every time one of them gets voted off, haha. But David and Jason are my favorites, although I've LOVED Chikezie the last two weeks too. Brooke White is the only girl I really like at all, but I think she's fantastic.

There's five contestants who I am liking enough to get their ITunes studio recordings every week: Carly, Michael, David (duh), Jason, and Brooke. Of those, my absolute favorite is David, with Michael following.

If Michael would just show even one iota of what he is capable of -- then it'd be a RACE. I was lucky enough to find the CDs he did with Film and The Rising -- and he has SUCH a good studio voice. The song "Cradle' by The Rising is a prime example of this. His studio versions of his AI songs the past few weeks have been a heck of a lot better than his actual performances as well.

I think this year there are a lot of talented people..
Of course David is my favorite, but I am also really liking Carly and David A.

And I totally agree with what Anna-Molly said... Michael has so much potential and a really good voice.
I think he just needs to loosen up a bit and have fun!

My thoughts exactly!! I can't get enough of his studio versions. Especially A Day In Life!! It's seriously amazing! I strongly suggest everybody getting it because it's just incredible. I keep listening to it and I had my friend listen to it and she fell in love with it as well.

His studio version of Across the Universe made me weepy...then again, that is my favorite song EVER -- but Michael just sounds perfect via recording. I have to pimp The Rising again -- someone posted a YouTube video of Cradle on here -- find that link and watch it. His voice will knock you out because he sounds very different than we know of him on Idol. The dude is capable of rocking. I am so hoping this is Michael's week to really shine...I do not want to see him leave just yet!

I love both studio versions, but I really, really loved A Day in the Life.. I couldn't stop listening to it yesterday. I hope he steps it up this week because I don't want to see him leave yet, either! He really does have an amazing voice.. he just needs to pick the right songs and show off those vocal abilities. I didn't agree with the judges this past week.. I think he did great!

I'm gonna have to listen/watch Cradle! I'll look for it.

Here's the link to Cradle on YouTube...

If you search for The Rising on ITunes, it brings up their albums plus a big group pic...Michael does NOT rock the long hair much .

Jason Castro, Michael Johns, Carly Smithson, and now, possibly, Brooke White. But we'll see about her.

I think my favs have changed since the last time I posted in this thread. This is kind of funny...we all seem to have the same favs. Because like many others my favs right now are David (of course), Michael, Jason, Carly, and Brooke!


I love that song! I've had it favorited on youtube for quite a while!

Well my Number One Favourite is absolutely David Cook and no one can beat him, but my other favourite is Jason Castro, 'cause he has a nice voice, different than David, but cute voice. And as a person he also seems like a great guy. (= I also liked Robbie, but he's not there anymore, so.. The best girl is.. i think Carly : ) Danny wasn't my favourite, but god i think he was so fun and amazing person! : D

But David C's the best ;>
