Melinda Doolittle - Top 3 - I believe in you and me

only Whitney can sing this right

Whitney smokes crack f her, Mel is the real deal

no doubt whitney is the best at this type of song...she's a soprano and melinda's voice is deeper, an alto......but melinda made the song her own and pulled it off beautifully......i'd love to hear her sing some Etta James/ Koko Taylor classic gritty blues.

i love this song... but whitney sings it better!!!!

Everybody who tries Whitney Houston usually gets torn up by the judges for such a performances, especially by Randy. But Melinda Doolittle was so great that Randy actually suggested it for her! As if that weren't amazing enough, she's the only one on American Idol to ever pull off Houston.

They really should have had her to sing some Stephanie Mills songs. Her voice is very similiar. Whitney is too much for her to tackle though I think she did a good job on the song considering.

I still don't get it. Of the three contestants, Melinda pulled of Whitney Houston and Tina Turner. She gave the three best performances. How did she not win.

Oh yeah there are idiots that live here in America. My bad!
