Seven days from now American Idol will be live from the NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE, but tonight is the fight for the finale and the Top 3 are busy competing with three rounds of songs.  

Round 1: Personal Picks
Round 2: Jimmy Iovine Picks
Round 3: Judges Pick

Round 1:

Scotty McCreery is up first singing Lonestar’s “Amazed” - a song that lets his tone shine through.  Steven Tyler quoted the lyrics back to him saying you’re “getting better and better.”  Jennifer Lopez said “A million girls out there wish you were singing to them.” Randy Jackson liked how he put a period on the end of the song.

Lauren Alaina went after votes singing Faith Hills “Wild One.”  Beyonce’ thought a fun song like this one would help loosen her up and it did.  Jennifer thought she created a moment and Randy said she psyched herself up before she came out.  Steven warned her to be ready for America to be all over her.

Haley Reinhart rocked out with Led Zepplin’s “What Is and What Should Never Be” - she was fearless.  Beyonce’ said she’s the type of performer that makes you believe in what she believes in.  Randy said this is what it’s all about - slaying it and crazy vocals!

Judges pick for Round 1 winner = Haley “hands down!”

Round 2:

A guitar slinging Scotty McCreery sang Garth Brooks’ “Are You Going To Kiss Me Or Not?”  Steven remarked he never heard him deliver a chorus like that before and Jennifer told him to remember what being in the “zone” felt like.  Randy pointed out that Garth Brooks is a great performer and that Scotty “did that tonight.  

Lauren Alaina delivered The band Perry’s “If I Die Young”  Jimmy Iovine told her it was a song that was in her vocal sweet spot.  Jennifer remarked about her beautiful tone and Randy liked her song choice.  Steven loved it as well.


Haley sang the abstract Fleetwood Mac’s hit “Rhiannon” at Jimmy’s request and Steven thanked her for reminding him why he fell in love with Stevie Nicks.  Jennifer thought it was another beautiful moment.

Judges pick for Round 2 winner = Steven Tyler thinks it’s Lauren Alaina and Randy and Jennifer pick Scotty.


Round 3:

Scotty was given Kenny Rogers’ “She Believes In Me” and Steven thought his performance was over the top.  Jennifer said “You showed us!”  Randy said it was sweet and tender in the front and hit the chorus very nicely.

Lauren got to sing Lee ann Womack’s 2000 hit “I Hope You Dance.”  Jennifer said she gave her “the goosies” from head to toe and must have won round 3 already.  Randy told her she was in the “zone” and Steven said it was like she owned the Grand Ole Opry.

Haley sang Alanis Morissette’s “You Ought To Know” and Randy was a big fan saying it was amazing and soulful.  Steven said it was perfect and incredible.  While Jennifer said no one could match her chorus. 

Judges pick for Round 3 winner = Steven says Haley / Jennifer and Randy say Lauren

Who do you say will win Scotty McCreery, Lauren Alaina or Haley Reinhart?
