Wanna hear your favorite songs from last night again?

In case you missed them (or just can't get enough) you will find the all 10 of the male performances below for you to listen to in .mp3 format. We even included the judges reactions to each one! Enjoy!

Phil Stacey: "Missing You"









Randy: "That was hot Phil. You're showing your power."

Paula: "Every week I'm hearing how great your tone is. I could hear you
right now on the radio."

Simon: "I'm not jumping out of my chair. I think you are very popular.
I think you have a completely unoriginal voice. You will be back here
next week, trust me."



Jared Cotter: "Let's Get It On"











Randy: "I kind of liked it. It was a little pitchy in spots but I liked
the face move, I might have to steal that."

Paula: "That's the kind of song that you don't have to push."

Simon: "I'm glad that you made the attempt, but it did remind me of 'The
Love Boat' because it was a bit corny in parts."



A.J. Tabaldo: "Feeling Good"











Randy: "You know what's good about this? It was so much better than
last week, it was kind of nice. At least you proved you have skills."

Paula: "Very, very nice. You have a real good voice."

Simon: "I have to say that was actually nearly very good. You
absolutely did the right thing, where you made yourself different, you
made yourself stand out. And you looked strangely comfortable doing
that."



Sanjaya Malakar: "Steppin' Out"











Randy: "This was really weird for me.it was like a bad high school
talent show, like you borrowed your dad's hat. I thought that was
really weak."

Paula: "You sang on pitch. I think it would be great to pick songs that
celebrate your youth."

Simon: "It came over as very weak, a little weird, and it made
absolutely no impact. I don't get why you did that."



Chris Sligh: "Trouble"











Randy: "It's good to see you return, man. You've got skills too. Good
choice, I liked that."

Paula: "Watch your pitch a little bit, and watch getting ahead of the
music a little bit. Other than that, you're awesome."

Simon: "We put you through to this round because you're a very good
singer and tonight you were a very good singer."



Nick Pedro: "Fever"











Randy: "Everyone has come back and done so much better than they did
last week. It was kind of nice, dude. That's the Nick we fell in love
with."

Paula: "You know I love the tone of your voice. Just let go. Go for
it."

Simon: "I thought it was good. I felt you lacked charisma on it. I
think you should have dressed more accordingly."



Blake Lewis: "Virtual Insanity"











Randy: "That's what I'm talking about. It's so good to see you return.
I like you man. It's a dope choice."

Paula: "You're making smart choices, you're unique, there's no one else
like you in this competition."

Simon: "I'm going to disagree with these two. I didn't see any
originality in this performance. I thought the first part was
completely copycat. I was very disappointed this week."



Brandon Rogers: "Time After Time"











Randy: "I liked the sentiment to your grandma, but I don't think it did
enough for you vocally. It was kind of boring for me."

Paula: "I felt your heart. You don't have to over-sing. You've got a
beautiful voice."

Simon: "It's a singing competition. You have got to come out here, when
you are as talented as you are, and make a wow impact. All this 'I'm
feeling it' nonsense doesn't work. You have to come out here and show
why you're a good singer."



Chris Richardson: "Geek in the Pink"











Randy: "Chris is in it, to win it tonight. I even think that was hotter
than the original."

Paula: "I'm surprised you dedicated that song to your grandma."

Simon: "We said when we first met you, you're somebody to watch. For
me, best tonight by a mile."



Sundance Head: "Mustang Sally"











Randy: "Wow, what a difference a week makes. Welcome back, Sundance.
You dropped the bomb tonight, that was hot."

Paula: "You've got to bring it like that every week. I didn't know you
had range like that. ."

Simon: "I'm glad that we've got the Sundance back who we really, really
like. I actually still think you can do better."

What we didn't know about Simon...

The 10 males took the stage last night in a 90 minute special telecast. We learned a lot last night about the competition and we also learned that Simon loves puppies! The competition is heating up and the males are determined to get your votes America. They are definitely challenging themselves with their song choices. Will the females challenge themselves the same way? Don't miss the 10 females compete tonight during another 90 minute telecast starting at 8pm.

Making it to the final 24...

Well the time came once again to make a lot of tough decisions. It didn't seem like it was going to be hard for the judges after they cut the first group of six to audition. Although a lot of people's dreams came to end, the hope is still alive for the lucky 24 who will continue on their journey to become the next American Idol.

Welcome to Hollywood!

Three words that only the best of the best heard so far this season. Everyone seemed excited to make it through to the next round, but I am not sure if they realize what lies ahead yet. Tuesday is the start of the elimination process and as always, peoples dreams will come to an end. But for one lucky winner, it's the beginning of their journey to be the next American Idol.

The last of the auditions...

Last night was the final night of auditions. If you wanted to be the next American Idol, this was your last chance to try. The judges were not easily impressed again, but they seemed to be in a great mood for the most part. After all, they did give someone a second chance! How often does that happen? What did you think?

L.A. Auditions...

Well nearly 40 people made it through to the next round. It appears that there is plenty of talent, but we just haven't seen all of it yet. Once again, the auditions made us laugh, cry, and just flat out wonder what some people were thinking. What do you think about the talent this year compared to the previous auditions that you have seen?
