American Idol: Top 13 Guys



I am not a music expert but i've been following american idol since it started, so here's what i think of the top 13. Im not from America, so i can't vote, i just hope they vote wisely.

Aaron Marcellus sings "Never Can Say Goodbye", im not really a fan but his a good singer and a good performance right there, just did not wowed me.

Adam Brock sings "Think". I can not deny that this family guy has a great voice but  i don't think he will last until the end - im sorry. With the american idol trend and America's choice, he lacks the x factor.

Chase Likens sings "Storm Warning". The judges right, he's good looking and yes Tyler he's kind of look like Brendan Fraser there. He has a good voice and good stage presence, he could have a chance considering the finalist last year being both country singers.

Creighton Fraker sings "True Colors". The guy has something unique going on there. Come on, that's Cyndi Lauper song and he made it his own but i still don't think he could make it to the end.

Colton Dixon sings "Decode". I like Colton and i love that song of Paramore. I agree with Tyler, there's a nice dark indie rock going on there.

DeAndre Brackensick sings "Reasons". I like his voice, his rendetion of the song is just right but i think there's something off at the very beginning but the end was beautiful.

Eben Franckewitz sings "Set Fire To The Rain". Such a cute kid but come on..... why sings Adelle?..the very big Adelle. You're already in the vote of the teens - and that's a big vote - with that Justin Beiber look- why do you have to ride to Adelle's phenom on the very first Idol Night.

Heejun Han sings "Angels". I really love Heejun since the audition, he has this two side in him - the funny and the sensitive, its very interesting. Besides that, he has a great voice and JLo i agree, it is "smooth as silk" and i might add "full of soul and heart". The judges right though, this is not his best performance.

Jeremy Rosado sings "Gravity". He has a sweet and tender voice for quite a big guy but i think tonight he gave a safe performance.

Joshua Ledet sings "You Pulled Me Through". It was mad....mad...mad, that's how you do it on the first night. He deserves the standing ovation.

Phillip Phillips sings "In The Air Tonight". I super love this guy since i heard him on the auditions. He has a very great, different voice and style. I am just worried when themed week comes, if whether he could show diversity and variations. Just like last season, i really like Casey but he stil didn't make it to the finals. I just wanna say, J Lo's right, You should know the name Phillip Phillips. And Randy, i dont agree, his rendition is great.

Reed Grimm sings "Moves Like Jagger". There is something crazy going on with this guy but with a lot of soul, and i like it. He can sing, he can play, he can dance and he can go crazy. He is interesting.

Surprise, surprise...

Jermaine Jones sings "Dance with my Father". I super super love that song, never fail to bring a tear in my eye. He is the lucky 13, they just can't pass the chance to hear and see again that Tender Giant. I love that nickname, it's really is for him - i wonder why they brought him back, is that because he cried like a baby when he did not make to the top 24 which was so touching and could still generate a lot of rating for the first night? Whatever, i love him but i dont think he could make it.

My vote doesn't count but my Top 5's are.- Phillip Phillips, Heejun Han, Colton Dixon, Reed Grimm and Joshua Ledet. DeAndre Brackensick could be a wildcard.
