The top 10 girls took to the stage to fight for a spot tonight. Many of the girls are probably in trouble tonight because others were so fantastic.

Crystal Bowersox recovered from her hospital scare yesterday to open the show. Her performance of Creedance Clearwater’s “As Long As I See The Light” showed off her natural, honest talent. She is the kind of girl you want to see in a bar with her guitar.

I disagreed with the judges a lot tonight. They seemed pretty harsh on some of the better performances.

While the judges didn’t like Katie Stevens’ version of “Put Your Records On,” it really showed off how mature her voice is for 17-years-old. Michelle Delamor showed what the judges have been asking for. She changed up Creed’s “With Arms Wide Open” to match her voice, but some of the judges didn’t like it. Katelynn Epperly did a great piano performance of Coldplay’s “The Scientist.” She was captivating, but the judges found her boring.

Lilly Brown got rave reviews from the judges, but I really didn’t get it. She has a cool indie vibe, but something about it just didn’t register with me.

Haeley Vaughn, Lacey Brown, Didi Benami and Paige Miles should be concerned this week. Haeley Vaughn and Didi blew it. They just didn’t sound good at all. Lacey Brown and Paige Miles sounded fine, but just aren’t memorable at all. I actually forgot who Paige Miles was. Being unmemorable is sometimes worse than being bad.

Siobhan Magnus totally blew everyone away when she closed the night with Aretha Franklin’s “Think.” She hit notes the rest of the girls only dream about. Who knew she could do something like that? Everyone is going to be talking about her tomorrow.

Stay tuned for the result tomorrow.
