Danny Gokey "Stand By Me" - It was really bad. It was like Chikezie's rendition of "I've Just Seen a Face". The beginning part of the performance was forced and the latter one made the whole performance really terrible. I still don't get the Gokey love. I hope he doesn't take the crown because I'd think that I just waited months and months of watching AI8.
Kris Allen "All She Wants To Do Is Dance"- I felt so disappointed afterwards. It was probably his not so good performance so far. I found it weird that he made the screaming girls "his stage", it was a bit awkward to watch. Usually, I find his performances really catchy, but for this one I just stared at his adorable face. Haha.
Lil Rounds "What's Love Got To Do With It"- I feel sad for her. I thought she'd be one of the stronger contestants and that performance didn't make it come true. I agree with Simon that it was just a copy of Tina Turner's. I also loved her outfit! Awesome. Still, I always expected a powerhouse performance from her or something cool like an R&B vibe coming from her,
Anoop Desai "True Colors"- He really has a nice voice. But I don't get excited whenever he performs anymore. He was really cute when he was a baby.
Scott MacIntyre "The Search Is Over"- Guitar! Electric! Ambitious! He's such a sweetheart. It's like you never want to break his hearty heart. An awkward performance, I actually liked the fact that he used the guitar. Vocally, it was umm... not good.
Allison Iraheta "I Can't Make You Love Me"- I'll start of by saying that I still love Constantine Maroulis' performance even though Allison gave a much better vocal. Allison, allison. She isn't my favorite, but she's somewhere near there. She's the best female contestant this season. I'm a bit surprised that she wasn't trumped by Lil yet. Anyway, she's nice. I don't get it with Simon's comment on her being more likeable.
Matt Giraud "Part Time Lover"- I don't understand my views on Matt. I REALLY liked him during Hollywood auditions during "I Want You Back", but now it's like.... whaaatt... However, his performance was one of the better performances of the night. But it was a bit corny at times.
Adam Lambert "Mad World"- Dearness. It's really hard to sing a "Tears of Fears" song, trust me I tried it (HAHA, I'm such a professional singer). It's hard to pull it off. Yeah I know that the rendition came from Gary Jules who covered it and was showcased in Donnie Darko, whatever. Still, he managed to do it beautifully and he made the night NOT BORING. I just realized, after his performance, that the performances before his had similar arrangements! Call me crazy, but I think I'm not. HAHA. Anyway, the last note was petrifying. Simon giving him a standing ovation... wasn't the right time, I think I would have preferred "Tracks of my Tears" for it. I think he was in a rush to praise Adam he just stood up.

Who WILL (probably) be in the bottom 3

I don't want to comment on who will leave because it could be the time to use the saver.
