Top 4 Results Show: And the Third Person in the Top Three Is...

9:52 We’re back…Casey and Lee on couch…Big Mike and Crystal on stage…Lights down… Why am I nervous?...The person in top three is…Crystal. Phew!...Crystal’s family shakes the hands of Mike’s family. That was classy…Mike’s wife is in tears…

9:54 Ryan talks to him about being saved…Simon is smiling…Goodbye video…That’s a little cruel to leave his family just sitting there and not letting him go hug them…These videos are really good this year…Ryan was more excited about him getting saved than he was…They haven’t shown him watching the video. I wonder if he’s with his family…

9:56 Mike is standing at the back of the stage away from Ryan…Kara tells him not to stop…His wife is holding their child…He’s doing “Will You Be There” for whatever reason…And he starts it in the higher key, which is what he should have done last night. I’m guessing he knows that now…It’s SO much better…The backup singers are still lousy…He goes to the mini-stage. He high-fives Randy…That was SO much better and he knows it…He waves to the audience…He jumps down to talk to the judges. Ellen says she’ll see him tomorrow on her show. He gets hugs from all of them…Ryan was waiting for him to come back, but he gives up and goes ahead with his thank yous…He finally comes back and hugs Lee and Casey and Ryan. He keeps saying “It’s all good”…He picks up Crystal…His wife brings over their baby and gives her to Mike. She’s bawling…And we’re out…

Final thoughts in a moment…
