David Hernandez takes us back to the days of Chuck Berry with his take on the Beatles’ “I Saw Her Standing There.”

I didn’t really get into it, but David Hernandez is toward the end of the show, so that means that the judges will probably like him.

Randy: “For me it was a little too overdone.” “There was too much going on with it.”

Paula: “You know I love your voice. … I feel like you kind of over did it a bit. You need to scale back a little bit.”

Simon: “I thought it was corny, verging on desperate. … It just wasn’t very cool.” “It was rabbit in the headlights.”

Me Talkin To You adds her two cents on David Hernandez’s song skills:

Middle of the road for me. nothing special.

Just got back from my son’s science fair, so I can fire up the American Idol live blog. It seems like I didn’t miss much because there have only been two eliminations tonight so far and it’s almost 7:40 p.m. Indiana’s own, Luke Menard leaves tonight. Of the women, Kady Malloy is going home.

On a side note — two of my favorites — Filipina cutie Ramiele Malubay and fellow Hoosier Amanda Overmyer make it through for another night on American Idol.

Asia’h Epperson and Kristy Lee Cook are on deck. Asia’h Epperson — someone I thought would be going further on American Idol — is going home tonight.

On the final elimination of the night, “spicy” Danny Noriega gets the American Idol boot and gets to sing Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love.” The YouTube video probably didn’t help, unlike the news about David Hernandez’s past-time. Ramiele Malubay breaks down crying at the news Danny Noriega is going home.
