Idol Judges Save Michael Lynche

American Idol Season 9 judges decided to use the first ever 'save' last night. The 'save' is a new addition to the show this season. The judges can use this new rule to save a contestant that has received the lowest number of votes...which in the past would mean they would be sent home. Instead that person sings once again for the judges. If all judges agree to save the contestant, he/she remains on the show. The 'save' can only be used once per season and it has to be used before the final five contestants are voted in.

With a total of nine contestants remaining the judges decided to save Michael Lynche from elimination last night. 'Big Mike' will get another shot at being the next American Idol.

Although Lynche has a technically superb voice, he's definitely no Chris Daughtry or Alex Lambert. I just can not see where his skills would do justice to a million dollar recording contract. The genre he continues to choose to sing seems to be more appealing to a mature/older audience. Sorry, but that audience just does not consist of thousands of album buying music fans.

Furthermore, there are 6 guys and and only 3 girls left on the show. I think it would have been wise to just let this one go. He didn't even act appreciative after the judges used the save. He just gave these hand signs like..."I'm the man!" What a waste!
