I loved Magni's "I Alone" the evil eye he gave the camera was cool. I liked Storm and Toby on backup. She looks like Zena's evil cousin or something. I didn't care for Ryan's acrobatics and I hate Coldplay so he did nothing for me. Toby is perfect for SN, the minute he pulled those chickies up on stage that sealed the deal. Dilana just freaked me out, I don't know if she's very stable. Her climbing on the guitar guy was reminiscent of Jill grinding and so was the hair thrashing from that same song but nobody called her on it.  Lukas, I'm not a fan, but he got the .... "that was AWESOME!" from Dave, but didn't everyone? Bottom three will be sadly Magni, Storm and Toby. I'd like to see Dilana in there because of bad form but I doubt that will happen. I don't want to see Magni or Storm go but I think it will be down to the two of them. |

I thought Dilana's off-stage antics were completely inexcusable for an adult woman. I mean, freaking out and throwing a glass because you got criticized? She really needs to grow up, rein in her emotions and, as Marty said, keep the drama on the stage.
Having said that, her performance was intense and in a perverse way, I liked it. I couldn't sit through an entire night of her, though.
Overall, I think Toby is the one that would keep my attention for an entire evening. He has range, he's good-looking, and he's smart. Judging from the SN songs we've heard so far, though, that may not be what they are looking for.
The trap I am trying to avoid falling into is using last year's criteria on this year's scenario. I think Toby would have been perfect for INXS, much better than JD. But SN is not INXS, no matter how successful each of the three guys was in the past.
Behind Toby, I still think Lukas is the most original of the bunch, Ryan is not a lead singer but more of a solo act, and Magni has a great voice and would be a good lead singer, just not for this band. Storm also has a great voice but every time I look at her, I think that she's a long-lost Wilson sister (Heart, not Wilson Philips). I don't buy her "tough" act at all.
Bottom three: Storm, Magni, Ryan, with Storm going.

I'm really torn on who will be in the bottom three. I think one will be Storm. The rest?  Magni could very easily end up there because of being there two times prior. But if it came down to he and Storm, which would go? Storm is less riot than Magni. Storm is more Broadway. It might be good for Dilana or Lukas to be in the bottom 3 so they can take center stage....but I don't see that happening. I agree on the questionable stablity of Dilana. |

Bottom three: Storm, Magni, Ryan, with Storm going. Hey, Wendy *waves* I'm down with pretty much everything you've said. Just to expand on a couple of things ... In the past few weeks, Toby has more than recaptured my early interest in him, after having slipped into ho-hum (or should I say hey-hey-ho-ho?) territory in the middle weeks. In the past couple of weeks, I've realized that this guy creates pure fun on stage to a degree that none of the others even approach, IMO. And these Supernova dudes appear to be all about a lightweight, "good time" brand of rock 'n' roll. To me, the fit between them and Toby is obvious. And I might actually buy a ticket to a show where he'd be out in front. I know I'd have ... fun! Your B3 prediction is also mine. Sorry to envision Magni there, but I think Lukas' and Dilana's fan bases have their backs with a vengeance. |

Hey, Mondegreen! *waves back* How are ya! Yes, I agree totally about Toby. He was boring me a couple of weeks ago but he is fun, both off the stage and on. And I think SN needs a fun factor. Have you been keeping up with LeperPop? Talk about fun! www.leperpop.blogspot.com |

Wow! Last night was fun! They were all good! Lukas: It was nice to hear some of his real voice. He should sing more like that. I'm beginning to like him more and more 'cause I like how he handled the whole "Dilana Drama". Magni: Love him. He has a great voice. It was real smart of him to jump up on the SN platform and have the crowd turn that way. I'm sure seeing the audience respond to him while standing behind him got SN pumped. Ryan: This was real exciting (for a Coldplay song). Gilby was right when he said it great to see an inspired artist perform. Storm: She did well but I felt like the best part of the song was Toby. He rocked it. It's probably her last week. Toby: I'm a sucker for a good looking Aussie with killer blue eyes.  Dilana: I sooo wanted to hate her but it was one of her better performance but by "NO means" the best of the two seasons. The Dilana drama thing was just too much on Dilana's part. It just made the rest of the Rockers look better. |

I'm afraid to drink coffee (or anything else) when I'm reading LeperPop! My monitor and keyboard would be toast ...

OMG!! Toby was good last night. But Lukas was even better. I am such a sucker for those two guys! I predict they will definately be in the finale. And probably Dilana if all goes well for her the next few weeks. Those are my three favorites anyway. And since I just bought Supernova tickets, it BETTER be one of those 3! LOL!! And to make the deal sweeter, they should have the Lovehammers opening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  |

The only performance I didn't really like last night was STorm. I don't think she did that song justice at all!
I hear we're going to be shocked at who goes home tonight. Can't stand the suspense!

At this point, anyone leaving would be a shock! They're all so good in their own way. But I predict Ryan will probably be leaving tonite. Then Magni, then Storm. Oh well...........
Modified to say that Storm will probably leave before Magni.

YIKES! They were all AWFUL!!! Ryan screamed through the whole thing, and all I could think about was Jordis' performance from last year. Storm has bored me from day one, so I shouldn't comment on her. And Dilana was absolutely HORRIBLE.
Of the three, Ryan's going home doesn't make any sense to me at all.

Usually, elimination night performances are good because they can pick a song that suits them. They were all terrible tonight. Here, DG, I hope this makes you feel better...   |

Ok.. Ryan was not great tonight, but he was the best of the three. And he has outperformed (even if in a calculated way) both those ladies for the past two weeks. There is no way he should have been gone tonight.
Oh well, at least Magni and Toby are moving on.. That's awesome... New dream for the top three.. Lukas, Magni, and Toby. (I can't believe I'm putting Lukas in there) Toby to win.
