Spoiler Alert: The following contains details on the April 28 episode of "American Idol" on ABC.

Two others bite the dust.

At the end of the "American Idol" episode on the theme of Sunday's Queen, Walker Burroughs and Alyssa Raghu were sent home after failing to receive enough votes from viewers. Their eliminations were not totally shocking: Raghu was almost cut off two weeks ago before Judge Katy Perry saved her. And although Burroughs is charming, it lacks the presence on the stage and the originality of more dynamic performers such as Alejandro Aranda and Madison Vandenburg.

Among the stars of the episode, we can mention Wade Cota, the deep voice, who piloted "We Are the Champions", Queen's, and the country's favorite, Laci Kaye Booth, who delivered a discreet interpretation of "Love of My Life" group.

But the highlight was once again Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon, who has always performed the most sincere and perfect performances. The music teacher, aged 26, chanted a "who wants to live forever", passionate and captivating, made even more emotional by the presence of his parents in the audience.

Harmon has spoken freely throughout the season of his tense relationship with his religious parents after he recently came out gay. Although her boyfriend and sister have supported her in previous episodes, it was her parents' first participation in the show.

"You really embodied the spirit of Freddie Mercury (the queen singer) with this performance," said Perry afterward. "It was as if you had frozen time, it was so beautiful, it was so beautiful to see you playing in front of your parents for the first time and it's so wonderful to see your trip."

"Jeremiah, you just keep spoiling us," Judge Luke Bryan added. "It was such a moving race and you have a real talent for it – it's a complete journey that built and built and built and then you just took it to the next level – I loved every second."

Asked by host Ryan Seacrest for his criticism, Harmon's father said: "It was very powerful – it's another great performance – I'm not very objective, but I think it's the best here. "

There remain only six competitors for this season of "Idol", which will continue next Sunday on ABC (8 EDT / PDT) with two other eliminations.
