Who was eliminated? Mostly expected it’s either Jason Castro or Syesha Mercado. But surprise, surprise…. It’s CARLY SMITHSON!

Carly and Syesha were in the bottom two, there was no bottom three. Another great talent was voted off, another surprise elimination just like Michael Johns. And it will be a big surprise if David Archuleta will be eliminated next week, hopefully not!

David Archuleta’s song for tonight’s American Idol is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Think of Me from the Phantom of Opera. Here goes the lyrics:

think of me
think of me fondly
when we’ve said goodbye
remember me every so often
promise me you’ll try
nn that day – that not so distant day
when you are far away and free
if you ever find a moment
spare a thought for me

Carly Smithson picked Jesus Christ Superstar as they sing Andrew Lloyd Webber’s song. Here’s the lyrics:

Every time I look at you
I don’t understand
Why you let the things you did
Get so out of hand
You’d have managed better
If you’d had it planned
Now why’d you choose such a backward time
And such a strange land?

It is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s night on American Idol. Here’s the Music of the Night lyrics to be sung by David Cook:

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses

Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night

At last, Kristy Lee Cook was sent home from American Idol April 16 elimination. She should have been eliminated earlier. It’s a good thing she’s pretty nonetheless, she would have got eliminated early on.

It was an all-female cast on the bottom three, with Brook White and Syesha Mercado.

Lyrics of Without You sung by Carly Smithson of American Idol:

No I cant forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess thats just the way
The story goes
You always smile but in your eyes
Your sorrow shows
Yes it shows
No I cant forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there
But then I let you go
And now its only fair
That I should let you know
What you should know

David Cook sings Always Be My Baby as tonight’s mentor is Mariah Carey. I think David has the best performance for the night. Here’s his video and lyrics:

I didn’t like it. But it is still one of my favorite songs, so I’ll just post the lyrics:

American Idols will sing Mariah’s song on their next performances. Knowing how great Mariah’s vocal is, it will be a tough competition. Here are the songs they have picked:

Sure he has a great voice and good looks, but Michael Johns was sent home among the top 8 finalists. Joining him in the bottom three were Syesha Mercado and Carly Smithson. It comes as a shocking elimination because I thought it could be Syesha or Carly.
