Boy Trouble on Idol's Sudden Death

American Idol's women gave the guys a lot to live up to Thursday night. A few of them measured up to the challenge, while others fell apart.
Song choice presented a problem all night, and proved the undoing of promising singers like Chris Watson, whose neo-Hendrix garb and pedestrian cover of (Sitting On) The Dock of the Bay made him look like a bad oldies act.
Some of the singers survived questionable song choices, though. For Paul Jolley, it was a close call. The judges split over his performance of judge Keith Urban's hit Tonight I Wanna Cry, forcing record executive Jimmy Iovine into his tie-breaking role.
