Hmm Ricky.. My top five has some overlap but not the same.

I put Jeremy Rosado and Joshua Ledet in the top five.

So top five is:

- Joshua Ledet

- Hollie Cavanagh

- Colton Dixon

- P2

- Jeremy Rosado.

I admit Jessica Sanchez could sneak into the top 5 but like you said, she won't win.

From what I see, the past three winners - Kris Allen, Lee Dewyze and Scotty McCreery have been able to give heartfelt, moving, touching performances.

The only ones I see being able to do that are Joshua, Hollie, Colton (with his amazing piano skills) and Jeremy.

Jessica is skilled but lacks that certain something.

Melanie is just a screamer. Not a singer. There's a difference.

Javier - pretty voice but pedestrian.

Scotty - not the best voice but a true singer.

Melanie and Javier can't do what Scotty did:
