Is a Save On the Way?

9:45 We’re back…Carrie Underwood career recap…Okay, they really shouldn’t have done a joke at Simon’s expense when they can’t show his response because this is on tape…Carrie and Randy come through the doors…Carrie says the guys did a great job with her songs…Randy says he has no technical knowledge but he has fun doing it…Randy and Carrie do “I Told You So”…I understand Carrie’s going for an old-time Opry look, but whatever that is in her hair looks silly…Carrie starts it out while Randy plays the guitar…

Let me just take a minute to give kudos to Randy as a mentor. He gave good advice, but he was also pretty entertaining…

9:49 Okay, back to the song. Carrie is in great voice. By the way, for those of you who don’t know, this was originally Randy’s song. That’s why they’re doing it together. Kudos to “Idol” for making this happen…This is actually really good and that look of pride on Randy’s face is really sweet—especially since Carrie’s getting to sing most of it. I wonder if this will be on iTunes because I’d love to see Randy back on the charts again…

9:52 Awkward segue as Ryan walks back over to Michael and Alexis on stools. Ryan asks Simon if either one of them is worth using the save on. Simon says they just had a conversation and one of them they would consider saving. Hmmm…My guess is Alexis, but Michael is extremely likeable, so…Break…

I told you this was going to be good…
