Hated Paul's performance. I'm definitely NOT a fan. He gives me the creeps.

I agree that Stefano and James were the best of the night. However, unlike Don G, I loved Lauren and Casey. I've seen Miley Cyrus sing that live on Idol and my ears were seriously bleeding when she was done. Lauren sang it beautifully, IMO. And Casey's performance was the first, and hopefully not last, cool jazz performance I've ever seen on Idol.

I would rank the performances as follows:

James
Stefano
Jacob
Casey
Lauren
Scotty
Haley
Paul
