It's going to be an interesting results show for Idol tomorrow night. Three very different performances - it's going to come down to which kind of people vote.
First there's Jordin. She's probably the most marketable of the three singers left. She's young and pretty, and she has an amazing voice. She sounded great again tonight, especially her last song. I understand where Simon's criticism of singing older songs is coming from, but she could record those older songs and sell them tomorrow.
Then there's Melinda. She has an amazing voice as well, and she's very similar in sound to Jordin. The biggest difference is that she has consistently sung "older" songs and both looked and sounded much older than the rest of the contestants. (that, and she just looked bizarre singing her second song tonight...at some point I just had to look away) This could be good, but if it's mostly teenagers that vote, we could have a shocker tomorrow night.
Totally different than the two girls is Blake. I really loved him tonight, especially with his second song (the Maroon 5 song). He sang songs that were so much more current - if it's younger viewers that call in to vote (which I think it usually is), he could be a surprise winner.
When it comes right down to it, I win my Idol pool if Blake wins, and finish second if Jordin wins, so, of course, I'm rooting for the upset tomorrow night. Idol pool aside, it's a tough choice. They really are very different singers, and appeal to very different groups of fans. Should be interesting...
