That's the one part of the show I look forward to. Well, that, and the closing credits.

They didn't include Blake's glorious take on "This Is My Now"?

Perhaps it's the way Blake kept kissing Jordin's hand? 'Cause that's kinda creepy... or something.

Clay Aiken. ::shudder::

I'm a bit fuzzy on it, but I think when you sign some agreement at the beginning of the competition you're required to sign the contract they offer you if you get to a certain point in the competition.

I wonder how the sales will turn out.
I wonder if Jordin is this year's Rubin Studdard. Lmao, I know Blake reminds me of Clay Aiken in one way or another.

Blake's "Time Of The Season" was OK on the Idol broadcast, but the arrangement on the studio version turns it into absolute muck. It's like a very unhip cruise ship (oh snap, I said it!).

I guess Simon, Randy and I were the only ones who liked Blake's "Time of the Season" - if ever there was a '60s song that could stand up to a little beatboxing (ch-ch-ah!), it's that one, no?
