Goodbye Phil & Chris R

America got it exactly right this week on American Idol. Phil and Chris were the weakest performers left in the bunch.

Phil has a great upper range but his lower, softer range was weird for me. It was more old fashioned/borderline classical and it just didn't seem to match the powerhouse vocals he showed up top.

Chris has a cool voice but it could use some technical training. He needs to learn to sing correctly (he's going to hurt his voice!) and his pitch isn't solid. I think he depended on his runs and when he couldn't hide behind them his vocals were shaky.

The top 4 deserve to be the top 4 and it's going to be a good competition from here on out! I'm excited!
