idol5 (and then there were 2)
Well, goodness gracious, heavens to murgatroyd, golly golly miss molly. Turns out that Elliott is going home. I really thought the groundswell the last few weeks would put him into the finals. He's a gracious and decent guy and I wish him all the best. He'll definitely do fine, much better than he would have before this adventure. A real American story, as a matter of fact.
As for the other two, my 20 weeks (yikes) began with thinking Taylor would win it all after he came to the results bouncy and playing his harmonica. Aside from Melissa McGhee and Mandissa, after a while I thought Katharine would win it all because I listened to her and really liked her voice most of the time (except when she smiled inappropriately or bounced her hair once too much) and I realized I'd consider buying a cd of hers. A while later I thought voters would reject Taylor cuz of the gray hair and his age, but I admired him for not darkening his hair or sucking up to teenieboppers. Then I thought voters would reject Kat for her gorgeousness and cheeriness but I admired her for not trying to be sultry and moody just to satisfy the grousers. Bottom line: I have no idea who will win. Taylor has a huge fan base but Katharine's singing voice is better and, as that fella Simon says often, it's a singing contest! On to next week....!
