how relieved was i when Cosima walked safely back to the couch tonight! THANK GOD AND THANKYOU TO ALL WHO VOTED FOR HER!!! it really should have been shannon and millsy, but at least Cosima a true talent did not get booted out before the no talent millsy!! it would be a dream to see the final 3- Guy, Paulini and Cosima!! that's how i think it should go anyway. Cosima is great, she has a great voice that sounds awesome when recorded too! i love her family background her parents were so cute ;D it's so hard to vote now as all four of these contestents have alot of talent. whichever way it goes now, in my eyes they will all make it anyway this has been the perfect platform to all of their future music careers!
it was so nice to see how Dicko lovingly and reassuringly embraced Cosima after the show, i think she really needed that hug! poor girl, she'll kick ass next week!! GO COSIMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ditto about Cos staying in this week.
Leaving the boys out of it for now, I prefer Cosima to Paulini for just one reason: her voice is distinguishable. It has a characteristic hue if I may. There's just enough huskiness but such clarity and depth. Paulini is a fab singer and performer. There's no doubt in my mind she'll do well in the future. The only thing I can't help but feel about Paulini is that her voice, whilst being fab, just doesn't stand out as distinctly different. She could pretty much be anyone on the Motown label for example (which in itself is not a bad thing), however to me her voice isn't the type that could be identified easily amongst the many others who sing well already in the recording business. I'm definitely not saying there's no room for her, just that she happens to sound too much like too many.
Having said the above, Shannon has done very well so far (better than I expected to be honest) however I think his time has also about come to make the grand exit. He sings ok, and he comes across as a friendly sort, but that isn't enough imho to make it through to the end. He isn't really a consistantly dynamic performer as Cosima, Paulini and Guy. Speaking of Guy, what else can one say but what a talent he really is.
One of the things that keeps the guessing going as to who leaves and stays, is the unreliability of the majority of net polls, and for this I'm thankful. I don't think there was a single poll this week that gave any indication whatsoever that Robert Mills would go. His popularity was soaring according to the polls. As we can see however, for reasons that don't need too much analysing, they don't reflect a very accurate picture of the status quo. At least not to date.
I think Cosima is going to have a mighty tough night on Sunday coming up. She seems to be a pretty emotional girl, and chances are, her being voted in the bottom 2 could play havoc on her psychology. There are only two things possible: either she gets psyched up and delivers a power punch next Sunday (which I hope) or tonight's low voting could dampen her spirit and screw things up for her. I thought her performance of Respect was gutsy, and in all honesty, I don't know how anybody could have sung it any better. This said, what the hec more could she give to convince the voters to swing her way? If last Sunday's performance of Respect didn't create a positive reaction vote wise, then I hate to say that it seems unlikely she'll go all the way to the end. I sincerely hope she picks something powerful to sing next week. Something that will show off her truly memorable voice. It will pretty much come down to song choice and the "shivers down the spine" factor.
To anyone with intentions of bagging any of the remaining contestants, having nothing but unconstructive comments, here's hoping you stay an anonymous non entity on the net, for that's all you deserve to be.
Good luck to all of the finalists, including the ones who already exited. They all brought something special into the comp, regardless of what our own individual tastes are. Yes, some are better than others, but really, it's *such* an objective call at this point, so again, good luck to all.

I heard that Guy muff dived Marcia's moist wet pussy. She is fuckable for an older gal. I also heard Guy spunked all over her black face.

i would have thrown the biggest tantrum if cosima didn't make it. thank god she's still in there. i don't understand the appeal of shannon. why is it that this week he got more votes than cosima and last week he got more votes than paulini? he's a competant singer, but nothing more. he doesn't know how to move and isn't very interesting to watch.

Agree ! I can't see any stars in Shannon's eyes! Sorry!
He is the same bore as Mills was. He is a pale version of Jimmy Barnes - very pale version ! Boring voice, boring looks, and doesn't even know what to do on stage. Go back to your farm Shannon!
The real final should be between the other three - and Guy should win!!!!!!

The only reason why Shannon is still in the comp is because he is an all round fair dinkum aussie bloke. But after readin this forum, i have to wonder who the hell is voting for him? Could it be all the farm land communities, I didn't actually think they had reception out those ways???  . Im not saying I don't like Shannon, he seems like a nice genuine guy, however I probably wouldn't buy one of his records as I'm not a big fan of Jimmy Barnes. Cosima has a great voice, however she pulls the meanest facials when she sings (have a look at her jaw next time). I love Paulini's voice and how she carrys herself, but I have to say Guy does have a voice from heaven and I got major gooses bumps when he sang the Bryan Adams song.  |

Goober, they do have mobile phone towers in country NSW I think it's young mums, country folk and rock fans voting for him. I voted for him and Guy. They are talented and so down to earth. I hope Guy wins though but I'll be looking forward to hearing more from Shannon after Idol. |

Shannon seems like a nice guy but I don't think his voice is anything spectacular. He is not a performer and is probably most suited to pub singing & country rock. I don't think he has what it takes to be the 'Australian Idol'. Good on him for getting this far though. In my opinion the only contestant worthy of the title is Guy. He has the potential to become an international star. Keep voting for him people!

I agree and I'll be voting (just once) for Guy next week, depending on the big band performance. Damn, I thought it might have been rock.

Just one vote - surely you can spare more than 55c to ensure that Australia is not a luaging stock worldwide in terms of its choice of 'idol' while i will continue to vote for paulini, i would be happy for any of the final 4 to win. they all have talent, even if some dont appeal to me (shannon) and i would prefer one to win(paulini) |

Cosima is the best performer in the comp. I hope that her fans keep supporting her, and voting for her every chance that they get. I like Guy, and Paulini as well, but go COSIMA all the way......
Come on guys, I mean Shannon is a bit of a hottie, and all....but do we really want a country/rock singer as our australian idol? That is only going to appeal to a margin of the public. Cosima has a fantastic voice, and moves well on stage....I'm sorry but I really can't say the same about Shannon.
