| | American Idol Season 4 |
 | | Nikko picks good songs for himself, but they're very much the same kind of song, unlike say Bo, who goes with "Spinning Wheel" one week and "Time in a Bottle" the next. |  | | As long as Nikko is singing the same types of songs, he probably will not get any of Jessica's fans if/when she is eliminated. |  | | My problem with Nikko is that he sings the same type of song every week. |

 | | Nikko: I was so happy he was back- but last nights performance was awful. |  | | Nikko was my best male performance of the night even with the weak vocal simply because he brought the package. |  | | Also, a picky technicality here: Anthony sang "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do," but he sang the slow version, which was released in the 70's by Neil Sedaka; the 60's version of the song (also by Sedaka) was very upbeat and fast-paced (and IMO much more fun to listen to). |

A 27-year-old from New York City with smooth dancing moves and a pure voice, Vazquez had been one of the favorites since his "Idol" audition in Las Vegas. |
