American Idol - another goes home

The show opened with the group singing "Dancing in the streets".

Hollie & Joshua were called up first.
Iovine felt Joshua did good last night. Felt Hollie did good but will be in the bottom 3. Thinks she has a long way to go to get to the finale but that Joshua just needs to keep doing what he is doing.
Hollie was in the bottom 3

Taylor Hicks was on the show. He helped introduce Kris Allen who performed his new single "Vision of love". Very good!

Skylar & Elise were called up next.
Iovine felt Skylar did a great job but that Elise failed and will be in the bottom or even go home tonight. Said Skylar is the best performer on the show. Feels Elise needs to pick the best rock songs she can pick. I totally agree with Iovine's comments on Skylar and Elise. I really love how much energy Skylar brings to her performances. I also think that Elise needs to pick better rock songs that suit her voice better.
Once again, Iovine was right tonight and Elise was in bottom 3.

They did a longer Dick Clark tribute & retrospective on his career and all he did for music and television which was more than substantial. Very well done.

LMFAO performed "Sorry for party rocking".

Phillip, Colton & Jessica were called up last.
Iovine felt Jessica needs to do younger songs more appropriate for her age to get to the finale. Felt Phillip did a really good job with his first song. Felt Colton was all wrong on his first song. Feels Phillip should be in the finale. Feels Colton needs to pick better songs if he wants to get to the finale.
Ryan told Jessica she was safe. Colton was in the bottom 3 for the first time.

Ryan told Elise she was safe. It was down to Hollie and Colton. Colton eliminated! Shocking elimination but I can see why it happened after two so-so performances last night. I really like Colton and admire his devotion and passion for Christian music so I will definitely be looking forward to hearing his music in the future.
