American Idol: Who are your picks for final four?

I thought it might be fun to exchange our picks for American Idol's final four singers. Your choices can be based on your own aesthetic preferences or on your instincts as to who will do well.

You can send your choices via email and if you and any of your partners want to get to know each other better, you can send postal addresses.

You might want to make notes on the judges. What did you think of Simon's scathing critique? What odd thing did Ellen do? Did Randy leap outside his comfort zone? What about the guest mentors? Go into as much detail as you'd like!

You can use the BCC function on your email program if you'd like to send out identical information to your partners--especially in the first email.

Please do not join this group unless you are a committed viewer of American Idol. While I am asking for a one time only commitment of picking your top four fairly early on, it would be very neat if you continued to email on the topic.

There's absolutely no need to be correct. This is not a "prediction" swap but a preference swap. Which singers delight you? Which singers might inspire you to buy their music? Also if you honestly do not like 4 singers, you can simply predict which will make the final four.

We will start with the final 12.
