I pretty much agree with you.

I take back what I said a few weeks ago about Carly being overrated. She's really good. David Cook was awesome. And I hope Jacuzzi stays around a long time.

Brooke however, was just so-so IMO. I was surprised the judges loved her so much. She's got a pretty voice and did a nice job, but it was just okay.

I agree with your three "bads" but don't think any of them were bad enough to get sent home yet. Hands down, that honor should go to Kristy Lee. She was wretched. She's totally out of the league of the rest of them.

Of those not previously mentioned:

Michael Johns = pretty good (great song choice)
Jason Castro = so-so
David Hernandez = completely unremarkable
Amanda = I missed her performance.

Overall, it was an entertaining night. I love pretty much everything the Beatles ever did and, thus, was prepared to be offended. But I think it speaks to the quality of Lennon and McCartney's music that it holds up so well to so many different interpretations.
I found that as well last night, they were so talented, prolific and gifted.. we may never see a song writing duo like that ever again especially in terms of quantity, quality, depth and.. what struck me last night, the timelessness.
Amanda was ok, but she is pretty much a one trick pony. David H was as Simon would say, unremarkable.
