Quick Notes on Idol 2009 Final 4 show

Kris Allen - Finally showed how weak he truly is as a singer.  Perhaps his fans will keep him alive.  He can't perform well unless he is able to tweak the arrangement and tone it down to fit himself.  That is a commendable talent, but if you're looking for the best singer among the contestants remaining, he has to go.  If you want to keep the cutest dudes then Kris will be in the finals.

Danny Gokey - Danny showed tonight that he has not grown as a singer throughout this competition. Back in the beginning we all knew that Danny was one of the best singers.  Well, aside from Kris he's the weakest of the remaining contestants, since he also does not possess the talent that Kris has of bending a song to his strengths, I could make a convincing argument that it's Danny's time to go home.  I hope that is not the case but I do think he is no better than the third best singer and would be expecting him to go home next week. 

Allison.  While I think she was the second best tonight it is totally possible that Allison will be going home.  It seems that she has the weakest fan base remaining.  It's a shame because I truly believe she is the second best singer remaining and also that she will be commercially the most successful of the four remaining singers in the competition.

Adam - A good performance as we always expect from him.  I am now convinced that we are witnessing the next Meatloaf of singers.  He will have a few big hits but his career will be filled with songs that are well done but just never catch on with the masses.

in the end... i will not be surprised if any one of these three go home, Kris, Danny, Allison.  I'm rooting the most for Allison and my second favorite remaining is Danny.
