THE LIST: (Who is your favorite of the list?)
9. Melinda DooLittle: “I’ve Got Rhythm” (Season 6) Melinda knows how to sing the great songs of the century, that’s for sure. She’s in her element here.

I've Got Rhythm
8. LaToya London: “Someone Saved My Life Tonight” (Season 3) Her voice is JUST so gorgeous. Goodness. Her tone is so rich and her notes just sore. I love this girl! LOVE!

Someone Saved My Life
7. Fantasia: “There’s Something About the Way You Look Tonight” (Season 3) She started in the audience, and really brought this performance home by the time she took the stage. I find that with Fantasia, I enjoy quite a few of her performance much more in retrospect than during the season. I was such a big LaToya fan that I just didn’t give Fantasia enough props.

Something About the Way You Look Tonight
6. Trenyce: “I’m Every Woman” (Season 2) This gal could really sing. Whether or not you liked her tone was really the only question, because she could hit the high notes and really sell a performance. This is the best performance of this song we’ve had, in my opinion. Randy said she had pitch problems, I disagree…..but Randy always says that.

I'm Every Woman
5. Michael Johns: “It’s All Wrong But It’s All Right” (Season 7) This was the first time I really believed Michael as a singer, as a performer, and as a legitimate artist. I think it was the last time too, but it really was an amazing, memorable performance.

It's All Wrong
4. Jennifer Hudson: “Circle of Life” (Season 3) Jennifer never got it all together enough to take on LaToya and Fantasia that season, but boy did this performance show signs of what was to come. This girl and sing the lights out of things!
Check it out:
Circle of Life
3. Carly Smithson: “Hear You Come Again” (Season 7) This is my favorite Carly performance of the entire season, because it was subtle, beautiful and she connected with the song emotionally. Stellar. The studio version is even better!
Check it out:
Here You Come Again
2. George Huff: “Take Me To the Pilot” (Season 3) I adore his tone, and watching him perform just fills the coldest heart with joy. This is one of his finest vocals and best performances, and every time I hear it I just fall in love with it more!
Check it out:
Take Me to the Pilot
1.Constantine Maroulis: “My Funny Valentine” (Season 4) He may have never had a perfect vocal, but despite that, this was truly a magical vocal, and a really amazing version of this song. I love when he surprises us with the jump and I really like the arrangement. Might have been the only night I really liked him.

Season 1: 8 (They went straight from 10 to 8 because they dropped 2 people)
Season 2: 6
Season 3: 11
Season 4: 10
Season 5: 14
Season 6: 5
Season 7: 12
Right now season 5 is in the lead, but seasons 7, 3, and 4 are not that far behind. Who will come out on top in the end?
