Buckys Recent Performance...

I've noticed that the 'BUCKY' haters/bashers have changed their minds about him since his last performance. {which was the BEST performance of the night!} Some people might think he will have some trouble singing next week when it's 'Queen' theme night. His fans don't need to worry! HE WILL, HE WILL, ROCK YOU ! And then,.... ANOTHER ONE WILL BITE THE DUST!! But it won't be Bucky.

I don't think it was the best performance of the night. I do think it was his best performance to date though. Bucky will stick around for at least another week. 5 of the 8 contestants left have been in the bottom 3 so any of them could go at this point.

I'm not a Bucky hater, but he is my least favorite (I see the difference, even if no one else does). I haven't changed my mind since his last performance. It was country, for goodness sake, which is supposed to be his thing. As a matter of fact, I was rather disappointed in him. I didn't feel he was all that good. He was flat and mumbled. Elliot did a better job, I felt, with the genre, and that isn't even his thing!

Will Bucky have problems with Queen. Probably. Will the others? Most of them, yes.

My mind is a little more open to the possibility he could go further, however, I still think he will be gone much sooner rather than later.

As much as Bucky has improved, both with performances and with the fans, he's at most risk this week with the theme. He, Paris and Kellie are probably going to fare the worst, in terms of being an utter disaster onstage. Ace may be able to squeak by if he chooses the right

The other country female counterpart, Kellie, is far better and is grossly underestimated for some reason. I'd bet that she will do well next week by virtue of being forced to do something different. That time with the S. Wonder theme, it appeared that someone picked the song for her, which was too safe to make any dent in her performance. I hope this time around she will be given a more challenging material, which I'm sure she can do confidently.

Flock, your points are very valid. Kellie and Paris, however, are probably protected. Their respective demos will not let anything happen to them. The same goes for Taylor and, to a lesser extent, Chris.

Everyone after Taylor, even Chris (reduced) is probably fair game this

Yes, I strictly speaking in terms of doing a decent job singing, not who's going to be in the bottom three.

I don't know about; mj's bigblog seems to have a fairly reliable source wrt song spoilers (not completely reliable, but..) and they are reporting from various sources that Ace will sing 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. If he does, I want that recap on my desk first thing in the am so I can enjoy it with my first cup of joe.

Ugh, I have a screening that night at 7:30 that I committed to, but there's no way I'm gonna be able to come home after and NOT watch. Gonna be a late night for me.
