Its about time we really narrowed this competition down.
Lets get to it!
So its a good thing Catie is matched up with Andy Grammer, nicest human alive.
Theyre singing Andys Good to Be Alive, and the feel good message is perfect for Catie.
Its always tough to sing with an established artistandsing one of his songs Catie doesnt really convince me otherwise.
Andy Grammer is just so polished.
But the judges love it.
Lets not kid ourselves, theres no way Catie is going home tonight.
Cade Foehner with Bishop BriggsTear Us ApartBishop Briggs describes Cade as the long-locked lover who has enchanted everyone.
The judges simply have no critiques left to give Cade.
Hes too good for them to have notes.
Go home and pack for Luke Bryans tour, I guess.
Hes another easy pick for the Top 14.
You guys, she was rocking a gold jumpsuit like the queen she is.
The song is perfect for Layla, all perky and fun.
It felt a little like bring-your-sister-to-work day, but the judges are all big fans.
Has Brandon had any one big moment on the show yet, though?
That may hurt his chances moving forward.American Idolloves its moments.
Well, until Kay Kay has some issues hearing herself once the full band kicks in.
She sounds good throughout, but the song choice just doesnt seem like the best fit.
The judges, who are basically cheerleaders at this point, stick to the positive.
There could be some surprises in the results tonight, but I fear for Kay Kay.
Trevor McBane with Bishop BriggsRiverTrevor is such a big fan of Bishop Briggs; it is very sweet.
They sound great together in rehearsals and on stage, but Trevor just cant match Bishops energy.
This makes sense since it is her big song and all.
The judges were happy to see Trevor open up a little more emotionally, but dont seem too enthused.
There is real chemistry between the two.
Jonny Brenns with Andy GrammerBack HomeIt is nice to see Jonny having fun for once!
It was fun while it lasted.
Even though we havent seen Jonny do many upbeat numbers, Grammers Back Home is a great fit.
This is the first pairing of the night where it truly felt equally matched.
Get these two on tour together, like yesterday.
The two guys sound tremendous together, their voices blending perfectly.
Michael is still surprising us each week with his versatility, and the two sound pretty good together.
Gabby Barrett with SugarlandStayYeah, this all makes sense.
More important, she sounds great next to Le Nettles.
Gabby seems like a safe bet though.
With all 12 contestants having performed, its time to make some cuts.
Anyone youll miss seeing perform now that theyve been added to theAmerican IdolRejection Pile?
Should Allen Stone just hang out with us all season long?
