I'm actually pretty crushed by Phil's departure, especially since came just when seemed as if Phil had finally found his vocal niche within the competition. What did him in? He never connected well with fans, and his creepy alien-inspired appearance certainly didn't help. He didn't have the young, hip pop edge that gave Blake and Chris so much momentum and always seemed to struggle with securing fans. A spot as last night's first singer certainly didn't help, either.
He performed his send-off song, "Blaze of Glory," well, and I even fought tears when he came up and serenaded his wife. Aww.
I'm going to miss Phil. All in all, he seemed pretty secure in himself, and even though his performances weren't always stellar, he didn't get caught in an ego trap.
Peace out.

He looked better in hats... made the ears not so yoda-esque
