Back to this year's contestants.
Here is is a look at last night's show.
These kids are tops.
They did not make it to this point by being average.
And my job is to make sure that
These kids continue and stay with it.
* then i saw her face *
* now im a believer *
* i'm alive *
* and i don't care much * * for words of doom *
* if it's love you need * * well i've got the room *

* maybe it's been crazy *
* and maybe i'm to blame *
* sweet caroline *
* good times never seemed so good *
I want to get your quick opinion on round one.
The guys, i'm going to say something to you.
You are top five contestants.
I want to see in here,
The performance of a lifetime coming up second time around.
* i thank the lord for the night time * * (the lord for the night time) *
* to forget the day * * (to forget the day) *
I think you finally realizedpi think you finally realized who you are.
We have been saying it all along.
I like you in this. This is where i like you.
* i am i said *
* to noone there *
Everyone loves who you are. That works.
That just works.
Thank you.
* september morn *
* we danced until the night *
* became a brand new day *
This is not the jason we put into the competition.
You have struggled through both songs.
And i think you are going to look back tonight and go
"I don't know who this person is."
* they're coming to america *
Well, david, that was a smart choice of song.
That was clever.
* just say *
* what you want to say *
You rocked the house again tonight.
That was blazing, blazing!
I feel like i'm already looking at the american idol.
One of these kids will be the american idol.
But there are prodigies in that group.
I'm impresseds with poise
And talent of these kids.
Now, one thing before we move on.
Last night the judges were thrown a curveball on the air
Which is just part of a live show.
But it sparked a lot of gossip about paula.
I read some of this on-Line this morning.
Just for the record, the rumors,
They are not true.
She is part of our family.
And we love her.
- A round of applause to paula. - There she is???
???
And i think simon still wants to hook up with her.
??Let's move on to the results. Who is headed home?
That is the big question.
Can i have out front first mr. Jason castro.
??
???
- How you doing, buddy? - Okay.
??Here we go.
Jason, you sang "forever in blue jeans." And "september morn."
Randy said you had an okay performance.
Paula thought you played it safe.
Simon said your first song was forgettable.
??He wasn't seeing the jason they put into the competition.
Do you know what he meant by that?
??I was thinking back.
I realizeed the weeks that i have gotten good criticism
Are the songs that i already knew or that i really changed.
??I didn't do that last night.
??
Are you nervous right now?
Yeah. A little.
??
This young lady loves you. You should know that.
But did america love you?
Jason,
It's been a long road.
You have gotten close.
America has voted.
To the sofas. You are safe.
All right. Let's look back stage and grab...
David archuleta. Come on out.
Here he comes. Mr. Archuleta.
It is a long walk, isn't it?
Yeah.
All right, david. You sang "sweet caroline" and "america."
Randy thought ??You were the bomb.
- ?? - ??
??Even though you are young, you are definitely in the zone.
Paula loved your perfection.
But wants to see more joy and more spirit.
Simon thought your second choice was very smart.
What do you mean by more fun when he is on stage singing, paula?
I just...
There is a certain zone that you hit when you are a performer.
??I have seen you hit it many times, david.
??I want to see that joy
??And we are rooting for you. We are.
??You are a brilliant singer.
??We want you to show that you are having more fun.
??
??At this stage,
Do you feel like you are being more careful, more cautious?
This week i wanted to have fun
Because with all the other weeks, i did have some mature-Sounding songs.
I thought i would give it a go and try to enjoy it this time.
I will work on it some more.
??You did excel.
??It is in you. We all loved it.
??We witnessed it.
Archuleta,
America voted.
And you are safe. You will be back next week.
All right. We will leave it there for right now.
Jason castro and david archuleta are safe.
They will be back next week for our rock and roll hall of fame show.
Take a look back stage.
One of those three is going home.
Who is it?
More after the break.
Welcome back to the show. We are live in hollywood.
If you are worried about life after idol, don't do anything drastic.
Because a new season of "so you think you can dance"
Premieres the day after our finale.
We have prepared this sample for you.
??
???
We are back with season four.
More thrills,
More spills
And the best dancers anywhere on tv.
There are other dance shows.
But none with this level of skill and this range of styles.
It is the biggest search for dancers ever.
Not everybody made the grade.
I don't know what you are here for. You are here as a joke.
??And disrespectful.
You are delusional.
You want to get in my face?
??
???
Some left unhappy.
??These people...
But dancer after dancer, brought their best moves
As they battled it out for tickets to the next round of auditions in vegas.
You are exactly what we are looking for in this competition.
Right through to vegas!
Going to vegas!
In the end, only 20 will make it to our studio stage.??
??
As once again, you decide who wins the title america's favorite dancer.
I'm going to watch just for the outfits.
It premieres may 22. So be there.
By the way, our executive producer standing over there
Watching me on the monitor
Is the very mean judge on the show, nigel lythgoe.??
Watch for nigel on "so you think you can dance."
He is over there judging us by watching the screen right now.
??A couple weeks ago,
We invited you to get creative and design your own coca-Cola cups.
Randy jackson used to be a model.
He said, "ryan, i want to model this cup tonight."
The winner is ryan?? From north dakota.
There it is. Great job, ryan.
??On your feet. Show that thing off.
- Vanna white me right now. - ??
On your feet. Get up. ??
Make it happen.
Love the cup. Be the cup.
You are one with the cup.
??Go to americanidol.Com to see the design up close.
??Back stage, we have three people waiting for the results.
One of them is off the show.
Can i have...
David cook, please. Front and center.
Come on out, mr. Cook.
- ?? - ??
You sang "i'm alive" and "all i really need is you."
Randy said you were in the zone and you rocked the house.
Simon said your first song was just above average.
??Your second song was brilliant.
Paula went ahead and said she was looking at the american idol.
Kind of putting you on the spot.
But what's your reaction to that statement from paula?
Honestly, the first thing i thought about was what simon said to carly last week.
About it being the kiss of death.??
Not with me. Not with me.
??You know, i hope you are right.
??I have good news. She was right.
America voted. You are safe for another week.
Let's bring out syesha and brooke together.
Come on out, ladies.
- Well, here we are again. - ??
Girls.
So that means that, well,
With just the two of you standing here, one of you is safe.
And the other is going home, unfortunately.
- ?? - Let's start with syesha.
??
You sang "hello again" and "thank the lord for the nighttime."
Randy didn't think your first song was amazing
But liked your broadway appeal of the second one.
Paula liked your song choices.
Simon disagreed with everybody
And thought you might be in big trouble because of your song choices.
- Syesha, - ??
I'm going to talk about brooke now.
Okay.
You sang "i'm a believer" and "i am, i said."
Randy thought your first performance was karaoke
But enjoyed the second song.
Paula thought you had fun and connected with the audience.
Simon called your first song a...
Nightmare.
He thought you turned it around for the second song.
Syesha, song choices,
Throughout the whole year, are they tough for you?
Actually, yes. They are.
Sometimes i find myself the day of rehearsal,
I'm like, oh, my gosh, i don't know what to sing.
Most of them... most of the songs i don't know them.
I don't know which one is best.
??Yeah, i found it a bit difficult.
Brooke who is very honest and emotional and vulnerable.
You got that comment, you know, the nightmare comment.
You remained poised and came back.
How did you do that?
I genuinely had a good time.
I was happy to be here.
Finally, last night, i just kicked into that happy grateful mode.
- ?? - That was it.
Okay.
- Syesha, - ??
- Brooke, - ??
I'm going to let you rest on the couch for a little bit.
We have some other business to take care of.
??Have a seat. -??
- Take a seat. - We will stay as long as we can.
Over there.
When we come back, natasha bedingfield and neil diamond perform.
Stay with us.
Welcome back to the show.
As you can see, ??
She is the british singer-Songwriter
Who continues to dominate the charts here in america.
Ladies and gentlemen, natasha bedingfield!

Pocket full of sunshine.
- Good to have you with us. - Thank you.
By the way, congratulations on all of your hits.
Because you have had several now.
And you are still very, very young.
You know, i was thinking about
What these contestants have been through,
Standing in lines with thousands of people to audition.
Now we are down to a final few.
Do you remember your first audition and how nerve-Racking that was?
- Yes. - ??Tell me about it.
??No. I didn't have auditions.
??I do remember american idol was so popular when i first came out.
??
I remember thinking that would be so nerve-Racking.
And now we are going to go to the judges.
And make it nerve-Racking.
- Simon, let me start with you. - Oh, no.
No. I'm kidding. I won't put you through it.
- Thank you so much for coming. - Thank you so much.
??
??Good to see you.
- ?? - All right.
??
- ?? - Go say hi, of course.
David archuleta. And natasha.
- ?? - You are great.
- ??
??Natasha, no, no.
??
I don't want to embarrass anybody.
But david would like to ask you to the prom.
I have my dress. I have a dress and everything.
- ?? - ??
If you ask me, i'll come.
She has a dress and a boyfriend.?? So we have a problem.
Natasha, thanks for coming. Good to see you. ??Take care.
All right. We will take your calls.
Americanidol.Com if you want to be on the air with us.
Let's start with line one.
Michael, ten years old. Lancaster, pennsylvania.
What's your question, michael?
- Hi, ryan. - ??How are you?
Okay. My question is for the judges.
Why is it only paula that gives the contestants a break?
??
Meaning she is sweet?
- Yes. - Okay. Paula?
Well, somebody has to.
By the way, do you want to be a singer when you get older?
Yes.
Good. Because you know what?
It is really hard,?? To get up on that stage.
It is really difficult.
??To do all the things they have to do to prove themselves
To all of you who watch and to all of us who judge.
I just want to give...
Keep the dreams alive. Because these contestants are amazing.
So that is why.??
Thank you, paula.
??Thanks so much for watching our show.
We appreciate it, buddy. You take care.
Let's grab myranda from louisiana.
??
Hi. My question is for paula.
I was wondering if she is going to do any more music videos
Any time soon with randy.
Well, i can only hope so.
??
- ?? - ??
Especially when randy becomes an animated cat.
- ??I'm the dog. - ??
- I'm the dog. - A polar bear.
??
- A squirrel. - ??
Paula released a single on randy's album.
Plans for anything else together, guys?
We will keep on dancing like there is no tomorrow.
That's right, baby.??
??
??If you want to be on the air with us,??
Let me grab line five.
Tara. I'm embarrassed we asked your age and it is up there.
??
But it is very young.
??California. Go ahead.
Yes. Hi there, ryan. I have a question for simon.
Please.
Okay. Simon, you say that some performances are really forgettable.
So which of these two performances is the most memorable for you?
Your kiss with paula abdul
Or your first kiss with me
At the bottom of your garden?? When you were nine years old?
Brilliant question.
This is the best question of the series.
??This is tara miller, right?
This is tara miller. ??
Oh, you remembered! Dude, you remembered!
Oh, my god. We are going back 17 years.
Right.
This is really you, tara.
Yeah. I promise you, simon. It is me.
It is so cool. Isn't it?
I like to ask tarra.
Is simon a good kisser?
Oh, i thought that might be coming.
- I have an answer to that. - Please.
??
Let me jump in here.?? I was nine years old.
- Bearing in mind. - ??
- ??
Tara, are you over the rabies, that is all i want to say.
That is okay. I have had a lot of therapy.
- I'm doing very well. - Right on.
- ?? - Thank you so much for calling.
??I haven't finished yet.
- It is okay. - ??
You want to go back to second base here. Go ahead.
??Do you still look cute?
- ?? - ??
??Yeah. I must say you have aged very well.
And i think i have, too. ??Yes, probably.
Literally was my first kiss. ??My first crush.
??
Well, listen, i'm going to make sure that
We exchange numbers with the two of you.
I'll give it to you. Thanks for the call.
- ??To all the kids watching, -??
Nine years old is too young to kiss.
Yes!
You need to wait a little bit.
We'll be right back with neil diamond.
Stay with us.
Welcome back to the show.
It is my pleasure to welcome this week's mentor.
As a performer and writer,
He is one of the most prolific influences on music today.
Off his new album, singing "pretty amazing grace,"
Ladies and gentlemen, neil diamond.
* pretty amazing grace *
* is what you showed me *
* pretty amazing grace *
* is who you are *
* i was an empty vessel *
* you filled me up inside *
* and with amazing grace *
* restored my pride *
* pretty amazing grace *
* is how you saved me *
* and with amazing grace *
* reclaimed my heart *
* love in the midst of chaos *
* calm in the heat of war *
* showed with amazing grace *
* what love was for *
* you forgave my insensitivity *
* and my attempt to then mislead you *
* you stood beside a wretch like me *
* your pretty amazing grace *
* was all i needed *
* stumbled inside the * * doorway of your chapel *
* humbled in god by everything i found *
* beauty and love surround me *
* freed me from what i fear *

- Neil diamond, ladies and gentlemen. - Thank you
Ryan, how are you?
I'm great. Thank you.
You got them on your feet, baby.
All right.
So first of all, before we chat,
I understand we have a special guest here tonight.
Is your mother in the audience?
My mom is out there somewhere. She is cheering.
You must be very proud, mom.
Neil diamond.
All right.
There is a new album may 6.
Comes out may 6.
What can you tell us about that album?
It is good.
- And it should be. - It is good. Home before dark.
It is special to me.
It is my life.
It is personal. It is intimate.
I hope people love it.
You don't have to work.
You could retire and hang on a beach.
Why keep doing it? ???
I love it. I love it.
It is just fun. What a gig. I get dressed up.
People clap. I sing.
- It is fun. - We have a lot of young artists on this show
That want to achieve something you have and that is longevity.
What is the key to longevity?
Just hard work, love what you do.
And a lot of luck.
Do you think the judges were fair last night with the contestants?
Well, i thought they were a little harsh.
A little harsh once in a while.
But generally, pretty right on.
Pretty right on.
I thought the kids did great. And
There were some spectacular performances.
I was very proud to be part of it.
So what group advice can you give to these guys
Before we get to more results?
Well, as i told you when we met the first time,
Stay with it.
If you love it, stay with it.
Don't listen to what simon says.
Paula, don't repeat.
Amen, amen!
Listen to me.
And just keep doing it. If you love it,
Don't stop ever, ever, ever.
Do you guys not get along?
Is there something i don't know about?
There is kind of a history we don't want to bring up now.
- Spare me the details. - I love him. He is wonderful.
Thank you very much for your generosity.
- Thank you, ryan. - ???
Thank you guys.
We'll be back with the results after the break.
