American Idol's Top 5 Predictions

In a night dedicated to Rat Pack standards, Randy Jackson was surprised at how well the five finalists were handling the classic songs. Simon at one point gave credit to the night’s mentor, Jamie Foxx, who won the Oscar playing Ray Charles in "Ray."

The five finalists truly did a remarkable job with this genre, making it tough to decide who’s going to be sent packing.

The only performance where the judges did not agree was Matt Giraud's rendition of "My Funny Valentine." Randy gave him a "6 out of 10" while Simon, who is not a fan of Matt, said he was “absolutely brilliant.” Personally, I think it's Matt's time to go home sweet home.

My two favorite picks of the night were (1st choice) Danny Gokey's “Come Rain or Come Shine” which the judges raved about and (2nd choice) Allison Iraheta's "Someone to Watch Over Me", which Kara predicted would get her into the finals. Simon on the other hand was not too impressed and predicted that she would end up in the bottom three tonight.

So based on the performances (and not how America has been voting), I predict that Matt and Kris should be in the bottom two, however I fear that Allison will be there with Matt instead and may possibly be sent home tonight.

For the results, don't miss the live show tonight at 9:00 pm (ET) on FOX. Taylor Hicks (whoever he is) will be performing tonight.
