Idol gave back and back and back some more in American Idol Season 9 Episode 33, finally concluding with the elimination of Tim Urban 25 minutes too late. Tonight the top 6 perform Shania Twain songs with Shania herself.
Lee DeWyze
Song: You’re Still the One
Randy: Pretty good job.
Ellen: Better than pretty good. Always sounds like your own version.
Kara: The sound of your voice on every song makes it sound so relevant.
Simon: Perfect song for you. Hesitant start with some weird faces.
Michael Lynche
Song: It Only Hurts When I’m Breathing
Randy: Really in the zone of who you are.
Ellen: Felt like Luther Vandross.
Kara: Always feel the connection from you. Changed enough to put your mark on it.
Simon: Spot on analogy from Ellen. A little bit wet. Like you’re in a musical acting out the words. A little bit girly.
Casey James
Song: Don’t
Randy: One of the best Casey James performances ever.
Ellen: Sang that like that’s really where you belong. Your best performance.
Kara: Didn’t hide or cover it up with the guitar. Vulnerable and raw.
Simon: Last week was a much needed wake up call for you. Your best performance.
Crystal Bowersox
Song: No One Needs to Know
Randy: Not my favorite performance but still love you.
Ellen: Nothing you can’t do. Not my favorite performance of yours either.
Kara: Kind of impossible for you not to be good.
Simon: Don’t like Crystal this week. Like something in a coffee shop, where they hire a band to sing to you, but you don’t want them to.
Aaron Kelly
Song: You Gotta Wait
Randy: This is your land.
Ellen: Everybody is doing well. Can’t get over the fact you’re 16. Or 17.
Kara: Like you really felt those words.
Simon: The last two or three weeks you’ve really struggled. However, tonight, you were like a different artist.
Siobhan Magnus
Song: Any Man of Mine
Randy: Loved it.
Ellen: Good way to end the show.
Kara: Guess who’s back.
Simon: Really liked that song. Screaming at the end was almost like you were giving birth.
