Carly Smithson sang “I Drove All Night” and I thought the singing was pretty good but I don’t really feel like she connected with the lyrics in this song, you know? There’s an emotion and desperation there that I don’t think she tapped into. Randy said it was another great performance, Paula said she was totally in her niche and Simon said that he doesn’t think she picked the right song (again). I gotta mention that he pants are atrocious but her mom (in the audience from Ireland) looks incredibly young!

it was ok… she has a weird sound to her voice.
I think it’s the accent, maybe? I dunno but I think I know what you mean…
She is capable but she is coming up short to me.
Oh and her clothes are hideous ..Jeanne you must be thinking that!
She is obviously a great singer. But I’m waiting hear something absouletely amazing and mind-blowing from her. Because I really do like her, and boy does she have some pipes!
But yeah, not a fan of the clothes.
