Elliot Yamin would not be on my list.

With all due respect, Aaron's comments weren't based on your personal assessments or preferences. He simply said that there have been people who've had exceptional performances in the past (I gave you some quotes that showed others -- professional talent evaluators -- thought some other performances were exceptional), flamed out later in the competition. He's right.
I did try to provide a variety of samples. Elliott did make it far, but he was never as good as he was during this stage of the competition.
Anwar who? Well, there may be a point there. Watch his performances from this stage of the competition. He did What a Wonderful World, and Moon River. Though some here didn't like one or both performances, watch the judges comments after each. Thumbs up across the board and he was on Cloud 9. Even fellow contestants regularly stood up and genuinely applauded his performances. He fizzzled out on the big stage.
