I am trying. I am really trying. I like talent shows. I am in awe of actual talent (because I have none). I adore Project Runway, So You Think You Can Dance, even Top Chef. I just cannot get all the way on board with this show. I used to watch the show back in the day (Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard). I gave it up and moved on to other shows. This season I came back (mainly because of Ellen Degeneres). After the girls performed last night and most of the guys tonight I am wondering whether it is a waste of my time. No one sounds great to me. I don't hear what others hear I guess. Minus Crystal Bowersox last night, everyone else seemed off-key and lackluster. I did like the deadlocked wonder and hope that she goes very far.

We'll see what happens. As for the boys...the judges loved Casey James (not sure if it was his voice or his looks). Even though his performance was not great tonight I am an Andrew Gracia fan.

Who are you liking? Are you having as much trouble as I am picking a singer to pull for?
