Countdown to American Idol

AMERICAN IDOL:

1 MORE DAY until American Idol is back and my fingers will be tired for sure ;) I love to write about American Idol... Not sure why but maybe it is because it is a show that I am 100% suppose to have an opinion about!!! I love to watch it and make judgements...wow that sounds really bad... but isn't that what the show is all about???

I have made myself a promise this year that I will not fall in love with a contestant before the top 12!!! The last two years my favorites did not make the top 12 and this was pretty annoying to lose your favorite so quickly... so this year I am going to try to really get warmed up to them before picking my favorite, how many people think this is actually going to happen???

Here is a look back at my two favorites from the last two years that got cut before their time:


2007: Sundance Head

His Audition that won me over:



His performance that lost it for him:




2008: Josiah Leming

His two performances that won me over:




His performance that lost it for him:



I would like to throw out there that Carly Smithson was another one of my favorites from auditions and she did make it to the top 12 last year so it wasn't all bad!
