<li>Chris - He was the highlight of the night, which is not saying too much.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, the American Idols tackled the American song classics with a little help from Rod Stewart.</p>
<blockquote><p>Chris - I loved his performance. He has a really great voice.  I know he&#8217;s a rocker but I love it when he just sings.</p>
<p>Paris - She was definitely in her comfort zone. Her voice was great but the song was a little on the boring side.</p>
<p>Taylor - He has a great voice. I really do love it when he gets to grooving and that ending was hot.</p>
<p>Elliot - I absolutely loved his performance.</p>
<p>Kellie - There were some shaky patches, ok more than some. Yet, I could hear traces of Patsy Cline in her voice. I think she has a future if she keeps on singing.</p>
<p>Ace - He was actually pretty darn good.</p>
<p>Katharine - She was great.</p></blockquote>
<p>A much better night of performances than last week&#8217;s Queen debacle.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is it me, or were most of the American Idol &#8220;Queen&#8221; performances tonight &#8216;a complete and utter mess?&#8217;</p>
<blockquote><p>Bucky - alright<br />
Ace - horrible; reminiscent of Rex Harrison&#8217;s talk-singing<br />
Kellie - a slight step above horrible, but at least she was committed to her delivery<br />
Chris - boring (he can sing, but every week it&#8217;s like he&#8217;s singing the same song)<br />
Katharine - too much screaming, surprised she didn&#8217;t do better<br />
Elliot - rough in the patches, but overall not too bad<br />
Taylor - needs to find the guy who stole his mojo<br />
Paris - there were some flashes of greatness in her voice, but not throughout the whole performance</p></blockquote>
<p>I guess Freddie Mercury left some pretty big shoes to fill&#8230;</p>
