the Australian Idol thread

Best three for me were:

Courtney (the guy has this won already)
Ricki-Lee
Anthony (if he wasn't so short he could win it too)

Worst three:

Marty
Amali
Emelia

It's a shame about Chanel, she was disappointing. I think she has the fan base to get her through though. At least she doesn't whinge when she gets criticism, she actually agrees with it.
 
I was pretty drunk whilst watching last night, but I think Hayley, Amali and Marty were the weakest. I really, REALLY dislike Hayley. REALLY.

I think Ricki-Lee was the best hands down, and Anthony and Courtney were great as well. I really like Courtney, but I still don't see him winning. Casey was good as well.

I don't think Chanel or Emelia were that bad, both just average-ish. Emelia did well for Emelia.

Daniel was pretty much the same as always. I think he needs to take a risk if he is going to be a threat now.
 
Regarding Hayley, I'm a big fan of the movie To Sir With Love and therefore a big fan of the song To Sir With Love, and I had no problem at all with her performance. I thought she did a good job.
 
I missed it, but from the results show it looks like I missed an awesome show. From the highlights: Ricki Lee was awesome, Courtney was great and Casey was pretty good.

Amali and Hayley were ordinary.
 
It's obvious that Marty and Hayley are on thin ice - apart from Emelia, they're the only ones left who have been in the bottom three.

I'm concerned about the disco thing this week - I think only Ricki-Lee will actually be suited to it. That said, I'm looking forward to what they do.
 
I missed the show, but am happy with the result. Voters seem to be getting things fairly well right so far.

If the theme for Sunday is disco, I look forward to it. Will be a chance for some of them to do something different rather than the same style each week (Daniel and Courtney, I'm looking your direction in particular). Ricki-Lee should nail it again, but I think Anthony should do well, Casey could do well, and Chanel and Emelia might surprise. Will be interesting anyway.
 
Will be interesting to see how some of the more one dimensional people do the disco shit. Mainly Daniel, Chanel, Courtney

I like Daniel, but it will be interesting how he converts to this genre. I wonder what song he will choose.
 
Courtney hasn't really been tested yet, but I think he'll come out of it ok. Daniel could be walking on shaky ground because while he's a great singer, he's not very versatile. It will be interesting to see what Chanel does. Disco is upbeat and she seems to prefer more laid back styles.
 
Chanel will be gone tomorrow night. Marty was the worst - good God, how boring was he?? - but if he can't be kicked off after weeks of average performances he won't go tomorrow.

No real standout for me this week.
